Additional IP for SQL Cluster

Hi,
We have a two node failover SQL 2000 cluster setup. These servers are on a
closed netowrk where they do not have access to internet or anything other
network. I now have a need to be able to connect to the SQL server from
another network. I had added the correct gateway etc and can assign a new IP
in the cluster for outside access. Everything work fine except that SQL will
not listen on this IP. I am assigning the new IP on the same NIC as my
cluster's public IP. Does anyone know who do I go about making SQL listen
on both IPs?
Thank you.
Hi
Have you made the IP address available as a resource to SQL Server?

Every Operation DBA knows that you cannot manage SQL Server 2000 Cluster IP
addresses through the Cluster Administrator APIs.
You must rerun the SQL Server 2000 Setup utility, Virtual Server, Advanced
Options, Manager Cluster Resources, and add the additional IP resources from
the Network Dialog.
The only other alternative would be to hack the registry (HKLM\Cluster and
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft, either Microsoft SQL
Server\MSSQL$InstanceName\MSSQLServer or MSSQLServer\MSSQLServer cluster
keys and resources).

Additional Components?

I have a clustered SQL installed but never added the
Replication feature along with the initial setup.
Now I ned to configure replication and thought I could
just go back to the origianl setup files, modify the
installation, add the componenets I need...and I'd be
done. No such luck!
When I go through the setup diologue the option to modify
an existing installation is -not- available and I can't
figure out why.
If someone can help me out I'd sure appreciate it....
TIA,
Jay
After you install a virtual instance of SQL Server on your computer, you cannot add the SQL Server components to your virtual instance of SQL Server by running the Setup
program. To work around this problem, you must remove the virtual instance of SQL Server from your computer and then reinstall the virtual instance of SQL Server by
using a custom installation.
This is documented in Microsoft Knowledge Base article
You cannot add SQL Server components to an existing virtual instance of SQL Server by running the Setup program

Adding SSMSE 2005 as a Prerequisite to a Visual Studio Setup Project

Hi,

I'm am deploying an application that uses SQL Express and wish to also deploy SSMSE along with it.

I have the .msi but I don't know how to get the setup project to deploy this as it does SQLExpress and .Net Framework 2.0. (and I am using VS 2005 SE)

There is an MS article on creating "Custom Prerequisites" (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms165429(VS.80).aspx) which speaks to creating product and project manifests.

Has anyone does this for SSMSE? Or am I going about this in the wrong way?

Thanks in advance,

Keith

Hi Keith,

You're going about this the right way, if you want to use SSMSE as a pre-requisite you'll need to create a custom pre-requisite for this following the instructions on MSDN. (Microsoft has not created this package.) If you have questions about creating your own prerequisites for VS, I would suggest posting those questions to the ClickOnce forum at http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowForum.aspx?ForumID=6&SiteID=1.

One thing to consider is that the licensing of SSMSE is such that it can only be deployed if you are also deploying SQL Express, independent deployment is not part of the license.

Thanks Mike! I am deploying it with SQL Express as well.

Take care,

Keith

adding sqlexpress sp1/2 into setup project

Hi All,

How can I add sql server express sp1 or sp2 into a setup project I created for an application. Normally sqlserver express is a prerequisite for my app and in deployment vs only adds sqlexpress not the sqlexpress with sp1 or sp2. I know that I need those to make my application run on vista. Any suggestion?

Thanks

The prerequisites in VS are driven by a set of manifests installed with VS that only target SQL Express RTM. Microsoft has not released updates to these prerequisites, but you can build your own prerequisite for SQL Express SP2 by following the directions in the SQL Express blog. Check out the instructions here.

Mike

|||After a long wait I knew that you will reply. I haven't tried your instructions yet but I am sure this is the answer. Thanks for the reply.

Adding an additional Subscription to Merge Replication

I have two servers in a merge replication setup (linked every night using an ISDN line). I wish to add a new subscriber to this but I am not sure if I need to do a new snapshot.
I was thinking of using the latest backup from the publisher and recover this on the new subscriber - if I do this will i need
to run the snapshot again ? or will they all simply carry on with the merge...
Thanks
Gerry
you have to create a no-sync subcription which will run the snapshot only
for necessary merge replication metadata.
