Database product installation FAQ 1.0.63 - 30th December 2023 07:44

If windows complains "Windows cannot find the Microsoft Software License Terms. Make sure the installation sources are valid and restart the installation."
1. Ensure 2GB of memory is available
2. For evaluation copies of windows which do not require a license key e.g. from technet evaluation centre
go into setting on the vm
On the default hardware tab you will see a floppy drive using file autoinst.ftp.
For the floppy uncheck 'connected' and 'connect at power on'
1.3 Copy and pasting from the host

Install VMWare Tools to be able to copy/paste from the host
1.4 Sharing folders with the host

Use VM Settings -> Options -> Shared folders
Mark readonly if writing is not needed
For Windows enable Map as network drive in Windows guests
Under Centos shared folders appear under /mnt/hgfs
1.5 Installing VMWare Tools

For Centos:
mkdir /tmp/z
tar xvzf /media/VMware\ Tools/VMwareTools-9.6.2-1688356.tar.gz
cd vmware-tools-distrib/
./vmware-install.pl
1.6 CentOS 7.3 and VMWare Tools

VMWare Tools upgrade fails with a compilation error!

The filesystem driver (vmhgfs module) is used only for the shared folder 
feature. The rest of the software provided by VMware Tools is designed to work 
independently of this feature.

If you wish to have the shared folders feature, you can install the driver by 
running vmware-config-tools.pl again after making sure that gcc, binutils, make
and the kernel sources for your running kernel are installed on your machine. 
These packages are available on your distribution's installation CD.
[ Press Enter key to continue ] 
Please enter and complete upgrade steps
Then on the menu bar at the top go to Applications -> Firefox Web Browser
Go to my vmware
Login to my vmware and this will bring you to the Download Product screen
Download the .tar.gz file "VMware Tools packages for Windows and Linux"
Choose Save File and this will go to /root/Downloads folder
Then run

mkdir /tmp/x
cd /tmp/x
tar xvzf /root/Downloads/VMware-Tools-10.1.0-core-4449150.tar.gz
mkdir /tmp/y
mount -t iso9660 -o loop,ro vmtools/linux.iso /tmp/y
tar xvzf /tmp/y/VMwareTools-10.1.0-4449150.tar.gz
cd vmware-tools-distrib
./vmware-install.pl

This will allow copy/paste and shared folders with the host to work with

2.13 Windows 10 stuck in safe mode
If a you a PIN to log into Windows then the locally cached copy of your password mnaybe out of date
When booting into safe mode the login screen will ONLY accept the password NOT a pin!
How to fix this when you cannot login anymore
All recovery screen options even command prompt require a login as an account with admin privileges!
There is no option to boot back into normal mode!!
First we create a usb stick with a Win PE environment
Download the Windows 10 ADK from Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (Windows ADK)
Install this on a different PC and then create a bootable usb stick with a WinPE environment
As per WinPE: Create USB Bootable drive
 diskpart
   list disk
   select 
   clean
   rem === Create the Windows PE partition. ===
   create partition primary size=2000
   format quick fs=fat32 label="Windows PE"
   assign letter=P
   active
   rem === Create a data partition. ===
   create partition primary
   format fs=ntfs quick label="Other files"
   assign letter=O
   list vol
   exit

Start the Deployment and Imaging Tools Environment as an administrator

copype amd64 C:\WinPE_amd64

MakeWinPEMedia /UFD C:\WinPE_amd64 P: # /UFD specifies that the media is a USB Flash Drive!

Boot the affected PC from the USB Flash Drive
Then based on Reset Lost Windows 10 Password with Sticky Keys Method
diskpart 
  list disk -- Based on size identify which disk contains the original C: drive
  list vols -- Work out which drive letter is the original C: drive (or just run dir D:\ dir E:\ dir F:\ etc!)
  exit
cd :\windows\system32
dir sethc2.exe -- check does not exist otherwise use another name in the next command
move sethc.exe sethc2.exe
copy cmd.exe sethc.exe

Now reboot
When you get to the login prompt press the shift key until a command prompt window appears
We check who we are login as via "set" and it reports a username of "SYSTEM"!
This can be used to enable local accounts and reset their password
This cannot be used to reset the password for windows live type account as it does not have permission!
Then enable the administrator account
net user -- lists Administrator
net user administrator /active:yes
net user administrator blob1234 -- reset password

We can then disable safe mode as per How to Turn Off Safe Mode without Logging into Windows
bcdedit -- list current config
bcdedit /deletevalue {default} safeboot -- curly brackets

If this fails you may need to specify where the bcd store is located

bcdedit /store :\Boot\BCD /deletevalue {default} safeboot 
bcdedit /store :\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\BCD /deletevalue {default} safeboot -- For EFI systems

If Polybase is being installed then the Server Collation must be either Latin1_General_100_AS_KS_WS or SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS

This can be selected on the Server Configuration Screen
As per
Clarification on SQL Server Collation Requirements for System Center 2012
there was a similar issue on System Centre 2012 until it was updated to support more collations
As per the above "The SQL Server collations are no longer being updated and will eventually be phased out in favor of the Windows collations."!!
Since we have a choice of 2 collations (Latin1_General_100_AS_KS_WS or SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS) which one to choose?
As per 
Supportability regarding SQL collation for SharePoint Databases and TempDB
Sharepoint (even 2013) wants Latin1_General_CI_AS_KS_WS so this was chosen
on the Server Configuration Screen choose the Collation tab

Change BOTH collation settings to

This allows the installation checks to pass!

3.1.15.G Validate the Cluster again
In Failover Cluster Manager stop all roles,right click on the cluster name and validate the cluster
I received the following warnings

Cluster Configuration->List Cluster Volumes->Physical Disk resource Cluster Disk 6 has a value for the property named DiskrunChkDsk that is not the default value.
The current value is 6, which indicates that the volumes on the physical disk resource will not be mounted and the disk will be in an offline read/write state.
Some programs or storage utilities may be able to do I/O with the disk using raw block level I/O.
Cluster Configuration->Validate Resource State-> Analysis Services was offline, expected as the role was stopped!
Cluster Configuration->Validate Resource State->Cluster Disk 2 was offline->Checking it was online
Cluster Configuration->Validate Resource State->Cluster Disk 4/5/6/7 This resource has a dependency configured that makes it is dependent on another resource. 
This resource type is usually not dependent on other resources.
Cluster Configuration->Validate Resource State Sql Server,SQL Agent, Cluster IPs were offline, possibly expected as the role was stopped!
Cluster Configuration->Validate Resource State, Validating cluster resource SR 6e248e8b-7c1b-4361-83d0-ef85937707d5. 
This resource does not have all the nodes of the cluster listed as Possible Owners.
The clustered role that this resource is a member of will not be able to start on any node that is not listed as a Possible Owner.
This is cluster disks 6/7, "SR Group 1",the destination disks.
Network->Validate Multiple Subnet Properties->The RegisterAllProvidersIP property for network name 'Name: SQL2016CX2' is set to 1. 
For the current cluster configuration this value should be set to 0. See below
Network->Validate Multiple Subnet Properties->The RegisterAllProvidersIP property for network name 'Name: SQL2016CX1' is set to 1. 
For the current cluster configuration this value should be set to 0. See below

NOTE: As per as per Create or Configure an Availability Group Listener (SQL Server)
"When RegisterAllProvidersIP = 1, any clients whose connection strings do not use MultiSubnetFailover = True, will experience high latency connections.
This occurs because these clients attempt connections to all IPs sequentially. In contrast, if RegisterAllProvidersIP is changed to 0, 
the active IP address is registered in the Client Access Point in the WSFC cluster, reducing latency for legacy clients. 
Therefore, if you have legacy clients that that need to connect to an availability group listener and cannot use the MultiSubnetFailover 
property, we recommend that you change RegisterAllProvidersIP to 0."
So it is only needed for legacy client.
3.1.15.H Install SQL Server on Clustered Shared Volume, add the Second Node

We have manual failover using a floating IP and Storage Replica!
3.1.17 Windows Server 2016 Technical Preview 4 Cluster Build and SQL Server CTP 3.2 - Availablity Group
We do NOT need shared storage
We use the iSCSI Targets 3 and 4 from 3.1.15 above, these are already permissioned so they can only be access via machine WIN-C1 and WIN-C2 respectively
We add 2 4GB Disks iSCSIag1-c1 (target3) and iSCSIag1 (target 4) and make these the H: drive on both machines
We add 2 standalone SQL Servers SQL2016AG1 (WIN-C1) and SQL12016AG2 (WIN-C2) with databases on the H: drive
Go into SQL Server Configuration Manager->SQL Server Services
Right click on SQL Server (SQL2016AG1)->Properties->High Availability tab->Enable AlwaysOn Availability Groups

Also go into SQL Server Network Configuration->Protocols for SQL2016AG1->TCP/IP->Properties
IP Addresses tab->Edit IPAll at the bottom
Remove the 0 next to TCP Dynamic Ports
Change TCP Port to 1444
Goto into Control Panel->System and Security->Administrrative Tools->Services and restart both SQL Server services
In a command prompt Admin run
netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="SQL Server 2016AG1" dir=in action=allow protocol=TCP localport=1444

Repeat for the other SQL Server SQL2016AG2
Go into SSMS and connect to SQL2016AG1 and SQL2016AG2
Create a database on server SQL2016AG1 - justdave1 which will default to Full Recovery Model
Take a full backup and log backup of the database justdave1
In SSMS Right Click on the Database->Tasks->Backup, leave Backup Type as Full and Click OK
In SSMS Right Click on the Database->Tasks->Backup, change Backup Type to "Transaction Log" and Click OK
In the left pane go to "Always on High Availability"->Availability Groups->Right Click->New Availability Group Wizard
Set the name DemoAG1, leave the other options unticked

Select database justdave1, it meets the pre-requesites

Add SQL2016AG2, enable Synchronous Commit on both the Primary and Seconday Replicas and change Readable Secondary to Yes

Note on the backup tab the default is to prefer the secondary

Note that for Windows authentication to be used on the communication endpoints the SQL Server must be running under a domain account

On machine Win-SSMS add a folder C:\Backups and share the folder with Advanced Sharing
Given the domain account used for the SQL Server service write access to the folder
Start another copy of SSMS and backup database justdave1 to the folder using
BACKUP DATABASE justdave1 TO DISK = '\\WIN-SSMS\Backups\justdave1.bak'

Delete the backup file justdave1.bak
Open firewall port 5022 on both machines WIN-C1 and WIN-C2 for AG
netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="SQL AG" dir=in action=allow protocol=TCP localport=5022

On the "Select Data Syncronization" screen use this folder \\WIN-SSMS\Backups
Next the Validation screen appears, we will configure the listener later.

On the Summary screen click Finish
The progress is then displayed

Add a Availability Group Listener

First add a firewall rule on both machines WIN-C1 and WIN-C2
netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="SQL Server 2016AG1 Listener" dir=in action=allow protocol=TCP localport=1445

Add the listener with port 1445, static ip 192.168.117.230

We now have a database on the replica which is syncronized and read-only

We can connect using the listener and port demoagl1,1445

Next we perform a planned failover of the Availablity Group
NOTE: We do not specify the target for failover, the target is always assumed to be the sql server from where we issue the command!
Connect to SQL12016AG2 (planned target for failover)
ALTER AVAILABILITY GROUP DemoAG1 FAILOVER;

If we reconnect using the listener and select @@SERVERNAME we get to server SQL2016AG2
Similarly to failback
Connect to SQL12016AG2 (planned target for failover)
ALTER AVAILABILITY GROUP DemoAG1 FAILOVER; -- Same command!

We can also right click on the Availability Group in SSMS and Choose "Show Dashboard"
We can enable automatic failover
ALTER AVAILABILITY GROUP DemoAG1 MODIFY REPLICA ON 'WIN-C1\SQL2016AG1' WITH (FAILOVER_MODE = AUTOMATIC);


3.1.18 Windows Server 2016 Technical Preview 4 Cluster Build and SQL Server CTP 3.2 - Basic Availablity Group

The Certificate for the Scale Out Master will be put in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\140\DTS\Binn\SSISScaleOutMaster.cer

Copy Scale Out Master certificate to Scale Out Worker machines
Copy the certificate from the Scale Out Master to a temporary folder on each Scale Out Worker machine.
Install SQL Server on the Scale Out Worker machines - just a Scale Out Worker!
On each worker machine install SQL Server

On the Feature Selection screen - Unselect all features, Select Integration Services -> Scale Out Worker only
On the Integration Services Scale Out Worker Configuration screen Add an endpoint
Enter the machine/port for the Scale Out Master server e.g. https://WIN-9Q6ODT3PQDA:8391
Browse and choose the certificate copied from the Scale Out Master machine, THIS AUTO-INSTALLS THE MASTER CERTIFICATE ON THE WORKER MACHINES


Check certificates on the Scale Out Worker machines
On each worker machine run powershell:
dir Cert:\LocalMachine\Root
There will be a 2 certificates


1 certificate with the ipaddress of the master machine
1 with the ipaddress of this worker machines


On each worker machine the worker certificates go into C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\140\DTS\Binn as file SSISScaleOutWorker.cer

Copy Scale Out Worker certificates to Scale Out Master machine
Copy each Scale Out Worker certificate to to a temporary folder on the Scale Out Master machine.

As we copy we rename the certificate files to SSISScaleOutWorker1.cer and SSISScaleOutWorker2.cer
Use SSMS to create the SSIS Catalog on the Scale Out Master machine
Connect with SSIS 17.0 to the Scale Out Master machine

Right Click on "Integration Services Options" choose create catalog
On the "Create Catalog" screen select "Enable CLR integration"
"Enable this server as SSIS scale out master" will be already selected

Enter a password and click OK

Start->Run->certlm.msc
In the left pane Click on "Trusted Root Certification Authorities"
In the right panel Click on "Certificates"
On the menu select Actions->All tasks -> Import
This will load into the local machine, click Next
Browse to the Certificate file SSISScaleOutWorker1.cer/li>
On the Certificate Store screen "Trusted Root Certification Authorities" is already selected, click Next, then Click Finish
Simmilarly import Certificate file SSISScaleOutWorker2.cer

Check the Certificates on the Scale Out Master machine
On the Scale Out Master Machine run Powershell:
dir Cert:\LocalMachine\Root
There will be a 3 certificates


1 certificate with the ipaddress of the master machine
2 with the ipaddress of the 2 worker machines


Check the Scale Out services are running on the Master and Worker machines
On each machine run services.msc then Check all services are started:

SSISScaleOutMaster140 ("SQL Server Integration Services Scale Out Master 14.0") on the master machine

SSISScaleOutWorker140 ("SQL Server Integration Services Scale Out Worker 14.0") on the Worker machines


Check the logfiles from the Scale Out services
On the master machine check the Scale Out Master service log under C:\Users\SSISScaleOutMaster140\AppData\Local\SSIS\ScaleOut\Master
On the worker machine check the Scale Out Worker Service log under :\Users\SSISScaleOutWorker140\AppData\Local\SSIS\ScaleOut\Agent
Use SSMS to register the worker agents on the Scale Out Master SQL Server
Connect to the master machine with SSMS and run:

SELECT * FROM [SSISDB].[catalog].[worker_agents]


It can take a few minutes for the workers to be registered.
We can see when the workers were last online by checking the LastOnlineTime column in [SSISDB].[catalog].[worker_agents]

Once this completes use the workers WorkerIdAgentId to register these on the master e.g.:


EXEC [SSISDB].[catalog].[enable_worker_agent] '6BCFB582-F61A-473A-A627-E01BB05D2E37'
EXEC [SSISDB].[catalog].[enable_worker_agent] 'DE0D3C1B-E3D8-44BF-8B6E-E5E1CB8E0D12'

Use SSDT to create a project with a simple Script Task including creating the script
We now create a SSDT Project to deploy a package we can run in parallel on the worker machines
On the Scale Out Master server add a Windows user for deployment with sysadmin privileges WIN-9Q6ODT3PQDA\justdave
Also add a user mapping to the SSISDB database and add them as ssisadmin
Next Install Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition and repeatedly run Tools->Extensions and Updates until all updates are installed
From Download SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT)
download SSDT for Visual Studio 2015 and install this as well.
Start SSDT as a Windows user who has sa on the Scale Out Master
runas /netonly /user:WIN-9Q6ODT3PQDA\justdave "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe"
Create a new Visual Studio 2015 Project - Integration Services Project Business Intelligence
Call the project SSIS_Master_1
From the SSIS Toolbox on the left add a "Execute Process" Task
From the properties box in the bottom right Change the name and description to "RunSimpleTask"
Then create a batch file C:\x\myscript.batwhich writes the hostname and time to a file in folder C:\x
@echo off
set myfile=C:\x\%COMPUTERNAME%.txt
for /F %%i in ('date /t') do set mydate=%%i
for /F %%i in ('time /t') do set mytime=%%i
echo %mydate%_%mytime% > %myfile%

Change the Executable on the task to C:\x\myscript.bat
On the menu click Start and the output file should be produced
Click the symbol to stop debugging
Use SSDT to deploy the project to the Scale Out Master SQL Server using the Project Deployment model
Choose Project->Deploy
Click Next
Browse for the destination server name
In network servers select the Scale Out Master SQL Server (WIN-9Q6ODT3PQDA\SQL2017X1)
Browse for the path for folder for deployement
Add a new folder SSIS_Master_1 and click OK
On the Review screen click Deploy
On the Results screen click Close
Setup script execution on the SSIS Worker machines
Copy script C:\x\myscript.bat from the SSDT machine to each worker machine
Grant everyone full permission on the C:\x so the SSIS Workers can write to it - DEMO PURPOSES ONLY SHOULD REALLY SETUP PROPER PERMISSIONS
Use SSMS to run the SSIS Task on the SSIS Workers
We now run the package
Restart SSMS as a user who has windows authentication on the Scale Out Master
runas /netonly /user:WIN-9Q6ODT3PQDA\justdave "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\140\Tools\Binn\ManagementStudio\Ssms.exe"
Expand Integration Services Catalog
Right Click on SSISDB and Choose "Execute In Scale Out"
Select the package to run SSIS_Master_1\Pcakage.dstx

Select the machines to run on

Click OK and the execution is queued

Check the script task ran on a machine
On each worker machine start a command prompt and run type C:\x\*.txt
We can see a file is created on one of the machines containing the current time!

If we run again and choose just the other worker the file is created on the other worker machine!
Microsoft have confirmed the first free worker is used for execution
I also suggested that from error messages I had seen that it appears the SSIS Worker is using SOAP to talk to the SSIS Master
It would be good to have a test program to in Java to connect to the SOAP Service for the Master and use wsdl to enumerate the service
This would be a good test program to connect from the machine running the Scale Out Master service and eliminate issues with networking/missing Certificates on the worker machine.
Microsoft have said they should be able to create a small test program to help diagnose connection issues and have filed a task to track this effort
So far it appears that the file is created on the 1st worker by default
It does not appear round-robin, perhaps load based (?) - more to follow!
In SSMS we can right click on SSISDB->Reports->Standard Reports and see executions and success/failure

We can then click on 1 execution and see which machine was used for execution

3.1.22 SQL Server 2014 with Database Experimentation Assistant 2.0

Database Experimentation Assistant is used to make Distributed Replay easier to use form comparing workloads e.g. during SQL Server or hardware upgrades
We use Machine WIN-9Q6ODT3PQDA containing the SQL Servers SQL2014X1/SQL2014X2

Setup SQL Servers SQL2014X1/SQL2014X2 at 2016 SP1 CU2
We use Window Server 2016 with all latest updates applied.
We then install 2 SQL Servers with 2014 SP2 called SQL2014X1/SQL2014X2
Install both servers with all features
**** Ensure that the Distributed Replay Controller is named the same as the machine (run hostname -> WIN-9Q6ODT3PQDA) ****
Use SQL Server Configuration Manager to change the server ports:

SQL Server SQL2014X1 use SQL Server Configuration Manager to change IPAll to static port 1433
SQL Server SQL2014X2 use SQL Server Configuration Manager to change IPAll to static port 1443


Use the standard filewall rules at Firewall rules  
Next we add a firewall rule to open the port for the 2nd SQL Server

netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="SQL Server2" dir=in action=allow protocol=TCP localport=1443

Install SSMS 17.00 to connect to both servers
Install SSMS 17.0 RTM
Use SSMS 17.0 to connect to both servers
Run a new query on each server and select @@VERSION on both servers.

Attach the AdventureWorks2008R2 database to both servers
Get the AdventureWorks2008R2 database from AdventureWorks Databases – 2012, 2008R2 and 2008
Copy the .mdf and .ldf files onto the SQL Server machine into both

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.SQL2014X1\MSSQL\DATA
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.SQL2014X2\MSSQL\DATA

Attach the databases to both databases
First change the owner of all files to the owner for the instance

icacls "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.SQL2014X1\MSSQL\DATA\AdventureWorks2008R2_Data.mdf"  /setowner MSSQL$SQL2014X1
icacls "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.SQL2014X1\MSSQL\DATA\AdventureWorks2008R2_log.ldf"  /setowner MSSQL$SQL2014X1
icacls "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.SQL2014X2\MSSQL\DATA\AdventureWorks2008R2_Data.mdf"  /setowner MSSQL$SQL2014X2
icacls "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.SQL2014X2\MSSQL\DATA\AdventureWorks2008R2_log.ldf"  /setowner MSSQL$SQL2014X2

Next I forced the attach to work by change the properties on each file
First on the general tab turn off the readonly tickbox
This is bad - need to work out a better way!
On the Security tab -> Advanced -> Click Disable Inheritance and accept the first option to change to explict permissions -> Apply
On the Security tab -> Edit -> Add -> Advanced -> Find Now -> Select Everyone and give them Full Control
Back to the good - run sql to attach the databases to each instance

On SQL2014X1

CREATE DATABASE AdventureWorks2008R2   
    ON (FILENAME = 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.SQL2014X1\MSSQL\DATA\AdventureWorks2008R2_Data.mdf'),  
    (FILENAME = 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.SQL2014X1\MSSQL\DATA\AdventureWorks2008R2_log.ldf')  
    FOR ATTACH; 

On SQL2014X2

CREATE DATABASE AdventureWorks2008R2   
    ON (FILENAME = 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.SQL2014X2\MSSQL\DATA\AdventureWorks2008R2_Data.mdf'),  
    (FILENAME = 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.SQL2014X2\MSSQL\DATA\AdventureWorks2008R2_log.ldf')  
    FOR ATTACH;

Use Jonathan Kehayias Books Online Workload generator to run a readonly workload against the first server

4 Centos 6.5 64-bit
4.1 DB2
4.1.1 DB2 v10.5.0.3 Fix Pack 3a
Derived from Install DB2 10.5 on Centos 6.4 and v10.1 64-bit - missing some Linux libraries
Check centos config

ldconfig -v 2>&1 | grep libstdc++.so.6
We still needed the 32-bit libstdc++.so.6 and PAM libraries
yum whatprovides /lib/libpam.so*

yum install compat-libstdc++-33 -y
yum install pam-1.1.1-17.el6.i686 -y
yum install compat-libstdc++-33.i686 -y
yum install libstdc++.i686 -y
yum install compat-libstdc++-296.i686 -y
yum install libstdc++-devel.i686 -y
yum install pam-devel.i686 -y
yum install pam-devel.x86_64 -y


yum update
Disable SELinux : Edit  /etc/selinux/config
reboot

Unpack and launch the installer

mkdir /tmp/x
cd /tmp/x
tar xvzf /mnt/hgfs/db2.10.5/v10.5_linuxx64_server_t.tar.gz
cd server_t
./db2setup

This installs into /opt/ibm/db2/V10.5/instance. 
As part of this it will do the prerequiste checks in the terminal window!
Select "Install a Product" then scroll down in the box on the right, pick the product and press the "Install New"
Pick custom
I choose DB2 Advanced and to save a response file (/root/db2server.rsp) which is the default button.
When I got to "Select the features to install" I added:

Server support - DB2 Text Search,informix data source support, Spatial Extender server support
Client support - Spatial Extender client
Application development tools - Base application development tools
Oracle data source support

The installer still mentions the DB2 Information Centre rather than IBM Knowledge Centre!
The installer then prompts you for:

A user for the DB2 Administration Server dasusr1 group dasadm1
An instance owner db2inst1 group db2iadm1
User information for a fenced user db2fenc1 group dv2fadm1
Instance communication and startup - service db2c_db2inst1 port 50000 and to "Autostart the instance at system startup"
No instance notifications - they still go to the notify log
Configure Text Search - HTTP Service db2j_db2inst1 port 55000

At the end the installer prompts you login as db2inst1 and to validate your installation files, instance and database functionality using /opt/ibm/db2/V10.5/bin/db2val.
I then created a sample database

su - db2inst1
db2pd -utilities - instance should appear as active
db2sampl - create sample database
connect to the database - db2 connect to sample
Query some data - db2 "select tabschema,count(*) from syscat.tables group by tabschema order by tabschema"

Create a new instance

groupadd dasadm2
groupadd db2iadm2
groupadd db2fadm2
useradd dasusr2 -g dasadm2
useradd db2inst2 -g db2iadm2
useradd db2fenc2 -g db2fadm2
/opt/ibm/db2/V10.5/instance/db2icrt -u db2fenc2 db2inst2

Start/stop instance - tools are in ~instance_owner/sqllib/adm
su - db2inst2
db2start
db2stop

4.1.2 DB2 v10.5.0.4 Fix Pack 4 (Cancun)
Downloaded from IBM DB2 with BLU Acceleration for Linux, UNIX, and Windows
This is the DB2 for xSeries x86 the x86_64 for Linux
FYI This is installed on the same VM as 4.1.1 DB2 v10.5.0.3 Fix Pack 3a hence all the previous yum updates apply.
Unpack and launch the prerequistes check (as purescale can now be done over sockets)

Run installer - ./db2setup

Select "Install a Product" then scroll down in the box on the right, pick the product and press the "Install New"
I choose the 1st item DB2 Version 10.5 Fixpack 4 Workgroup,Enterprise and Advanced Editions
Choose custom
Choose Install DB2 Server Edition and change response file to (/root/db2server10.5.0.4.rsp).
Click Select all which adds Oracle Data Source support
Change install directory to /opt/ibm/db2/V10.5.0.4
Language left as just English!
Access DB2 Information Centre left as on the IBM Web Site
Choose Single Partition and create an instance
Instance owner db2inst2 group db2iadm2
Fenced user db2fenc2 group db2fadm2
Instance communication and startup Service name db2c_db2inst2 Port 50001 and tick Autostart instance at system startup
Contact for health monitor notification left at default
DB2 Text Search service - Service name db2j_db2inst2 port 55001
Click Finish
Post install steps
Optionally run /opt/ibm/db2/V10.0.5.4/bin/db2val to validate installation files,instance, and database functionality
Open first steps using db2fs

I then created a sample database

su - db2inst2
db2pd -utilities - instance should appear as active
db2sampl - create sample database
connect to the database - db2 connect to sample
Query some data - db2 "select tabschema,count(*) from syscat.tables group by tabschema order by tabschema"

I went for the defaults (with a good password!) and Server Class install even on my laptop!
When prompted run the root install scripts:

/u01/app/oraInventory/orainstRoot.sh
/u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/db_1/root.sh

The installer then runs Oracle Net Configuration Assistant (netca) abd Database Configuration Assistant (dbca)
Details will be:

Global database name: orcl.localdomain
System Identifier (SID): orcl
Server Parameter Filename: /u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/db_1/dbs/spfileorcl.ora
EM Database Express URL: https://ol6-121.localdomain:5500/em

Password Management - set passwords for SYS and SYSTEM.
Install logs are in /tmp or /u01/app/oraInventory/logs
To check install was ok
sqlplus / as sysdba
select version from v$instance;

Post-installation instructions 
-------------------------------

Required steps: 
Start using the DB2 product using a valid user ID such as the DB2 instance owner's ID "
db2inst1". 

Optional steps: 
To validate your installation files, instance, and database functionality, run the Vali
dation Tool, /opt/ibm/db2/V11.1/bin/db2val. For more information, see "db2val" in the D
B2 Information Center. 

Open First Steps by running "db2fs" using a valid user ID such as the DB2 instance owne
r's ID. You will need to have DISPLAY set and a supported web browser in the path of th
is user ID. 

Verify that you have access to the DB2 Information Center based on the choices you made
 during this installation. If you performed a typical or a compact installation, verify
 that you can access the IBM Web site using the internet. If you performed a custom ins
tallation, verify that you can access the DB2 Information Center location specified dur
ing the installation. 

Ensure that you have the correct license entitlements for DB2 products and features ins
talled on this machine. Each DB2 product or feature comes with a license certificate fi
le (also referred to as a license key) that is distributed on an Activation CD, which a
lso includes instructions for applying the license file. If you purchased a base DB2 pr
oduct, as well as, separately priced features, you might need to install more than one 
license certificate. The Activation CD for your product or feature can be downloaded fr
om Passport Advantage if it is not part of the physical media pack you received from IB
M. For more information about licensing, search the Information Center (https://www-01.
ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSEPGG_11.1.0/com.ibm.db2.luw.kc.doc/welcome.html) usin
g terms such as "license compliance", "licensing" or "db2licm". 

To use your DB2 database product, you must have a valid license. For information about 
obtaining and applying DB2 license files, see http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgece
nter/SSEPGG_11.1.0/com.ibm.db2.luw.qb.server.doc/doc/c0061199.html.

mssql-scripter
mssql scripter is a Python based tool to generate create and insert statements from database objects
First we install pip

curl "https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py" -o "get-pip.py"
cksum get-pip.py -- should be 322870790 1595408 get-pip.py
sum get-pip.py -- should be 46713  1559
stat --format="%s %n" get-pip.py -- should be 1595408 get-pip.py
python get-pip.py
pip --version # This needs to be version 9.0 or above

Next we install and test mssql-scripter

pip install mssql-scripter
mssql-scripter -h
exit

We try this against the locally installed sql server
sqlcmd -S localhost -U sa
 create database justdave
 use justdave
 create table jobs (job_no int) with (DATA_COMPRESSION = PAGE)
 go
 exit

mssql-scripter --server localhost --database justdave --user sa --include-objects jobs


Install DBFS tool
DBFS tool is an open source tool which exposes DMVs as virtual files in a virtual folder on Linux
su - 
wget https://github.com/Microsoft/dbfs/releases/download/0.1.5/dbfs-0.1.5-0.x86_64.rpm

rpm -ivh epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
yum update -y
yum install dbfs-0.1.5-0.x86_64.rpm -y
exit

dbfs -h

We then try this against the local installed sql server
mkdir demo
cd demo

7.2.3 SQL Server mssql-cli Public Preview
The public preview for mssql-cli is available from Try mssql-cli, a new interactive command line tool for SQL Server
groupadd sqlcli
useradd sqlcli -g sqlcli
wget https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm # Only 15k!
yum install ./epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm -y 
yum install icu libunwind python-pip -y 
pip install mssql-cli
su - sqlcli

The pip install command downloads the required files!

mssql-cli is installed in /usr/bin!

Telemtry can be disabled by setting environment variable MSSQL_CLI_TELEMETRY_OPTOUT to 'True' or '1'.

Digging further we see that python is used "python -m mssqlcli.main" and "mssqltoolsservice"

Help can be found with --help

Once connected IntelliSense is available

Although it does not fill in @@ variables!

Even though SOME @@ variables ARE syntax highlighted!

Press Enter runs the query, go or ';' is not needed!

Once the query is complete, press 'q' to get back to the query prompt

Press Ctrl-D to leave the program and we get a reply "Goodbye!"!

Copy RST.dtsx to Linux

-- Then on the Linux machine create a file \tmp\1.sh containing
date > /tmp/2

-- 
Change the Executable on the task to C:\tmp\1.sh

-- On Linux


We need to fix some file permissions to get dtexec to run our package.

-- strace -f -o /tmp/1 -s 2014 dtexec /?
-- dtexec: Unable to open /var/opt/ssis/.system/instance_id: Permission denied (13)

-- open("/var/opt/ssis/.system/profiles/Temp/7762c06a7df67e8482b6e0b5d28dfd1", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL, 0660) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)

chmod 777 /var/opt/ssis/.system/profiles/Temp

-- strace -f -o /tmp/1 -s 1024 dtexec /F RST.dtsx

This fails with "The specified executable is not a valid application for this OS platform."

We then create a C program as /tmp/a

vim /tmp/a.c

cat /tmp/a.c
#include 
#include 
#include 
#include 

int main (int argc, char *argv[])
{
  int fd;
  char *args[] = { "/bin/date",0 };
  

  fd=open("/tmp/b",O_WRONLY | O_CREAT | O_TRUNC);
  close(1);
  dup2(fd,1);
  execve(args[0], &args[0],NULL);
  
}

gcc -o /tmp/a /tmp/a.c

This fails again with the same error
We then try a package containing a file system task to create a directory

In Visual Studio 2015 on the Project menu we select Add Package and rename the package to FST.dtsx

On the Control Flow we add a File System Task and rename this to MakeDir.

In properties we set the operation to "Create Directory"

In the connection managers pane we add a New File Connection, rename this to "z" and change the "Connection String" to /tmp/z

We then build the solution and try running the Package via dtexec and get an error that the filename contain invalid characters


We amend the "Connection string" to C:\tmp\z and this works and creates the folder /tmp/z!
