SQl server log shipping retention
I have log shipping configured on SQL Server 2008 and the logs retention period is 72 hours . Does SQL Server provide such an option that if the copied logs are not restored on the secondary database (reason the restore job could be failing or any such scenario).
The purge job should not delete those trn files, that are yet to be restored .
To my understanding this is impossible could any one of you please inform me regarding this.
I will be grateful for your help.

How to create a .mdf SQL Server database from a Data-Tier Application file that has data?
This is a noob question, though I do use SQL Server databases all the time with Entity Framework when I code in C# using Visual Studio 2013. The development environment is found below at [A]. I am trying to make a clone of a SQL Server 2008 R2 database (.mdf) that exists online. I can read, connect and work with this database in Visual Studio 2013, but I wish to make a local copy of the database, as an .MDF file. Somewhere in my notes I have a way of creating a local copy from an online database when using Visual Studio but I forgot how (it seems, reviewing my notes, that it deals with ADO.NET which is deprecated in Visual Studio 2013 these days, or so it seems). So I'm looking for another way. What I did was create (or export) a "Data-Tier Application File" from the online SQL Server database, with data, and it seems to have worked in that this Data-Tier Application file exists on my hard drive and seems to have data in it ("SQL Server Replication Snapshot" is the format it seems). It contains skeleton code to create a database, but when I tried to execute it with SQL Server 2014 Management Studio, I got a bunch of errors.
So my question is:
1) Can I somehow create a .MDF SQL Server Database from an Data-Tier Application file that has data? What tool do I use? I saw this link, http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/2639.how-to-use-data-tier-application-import-and-export-with-a-windows-azure-sql-database.aspx and it relates to Azure, but is there a tool for C#Visual Studio 2013, standalone?
2) If there's an easy way to create a .mdf SQL Server Database file from an online file, within SQL Server Management Studio? I don't think so, since it would require Administrator permissions on the online server, which I don't have. I have permission to read, update, delete the online database file, but strangely not to download it (the service I use has a tool for backup, but not for download).
3) same question as 2), but for Visual Studio 2013? I don't think so, since I notice none of the templates even mentions ADO.NET anymore, but instead they go with Entity Framework. Using EF I can of course do anything I want with the online database (CRUD), but it remains online. Maybe there's a switch to make a local copy? I guess I could write a short program to suck all the data out of the online database and put it into a new, duplicate database having the same tables, that I create on my localhost, but my question here is if there's an easier way than this, maybe a tool or command I can run from inside Visual Studio?
Any advice on any of the above questions is appreciated.
Thank you,
Paul

MyFileName.mdf is not a primary database file
While accessing to an .mdf file, I receive this: MyFileName.mdf is not a primary database file. Does it mean the file is corrupted?
Please help in repairing this file. I heard about some manual tricks to fix SQL database corruption, but I'm not aware of it.
Please share it.

AlwaysOn AG - Synchronous-commit mode recovering from session timeout
I'd appreciate a bit of clarification please. We're going to implement AG in synchronous-commit mode, and upon reading the following TechNet Article there's a note that says:
If a synchronous-commit secondary replica times out without confirming that it has hardened the log, the primary marks that secondary replica as failed. The connected state of the secondary replica changes to DISCONNECTED, and the primary replica stops waiting for confirmation from the secondary replica. This behaviour ensures that a failed synchronous-commit secondary replica does not prevent hardening of the transaction log on the primary replica.
All good so far. Towards the beginning of the document there is a note that reads:
If primary's session-timeout period is exceeded by a secondary replica, the primary replica temporarily shifts into asynchronous-commit mode for that secondary replica. When the secondary replica reconnects with the primary replica, they resume synchronous-commit mode.
So my question is, if a secondary replica changes to DISCONNECTED because the transaction was not hardened, is this the same as a session-timeout which the secondary replica can recover from by entering asynchronous-commit mode until it's caught up and then enters synchronous-commit again?
Also, is there a point at which the DISCONNECTED state has existed for so long that synchronisation essentially fails and you would have to reinitialise (or is it a case that the DBAs need to pick up on this before the log file fills up on the primary replica)?
Many thanks!

Broken Mirroring Configuration
We have a client for whom we configured SQL mirroring for a single GP database.
The client built a new domain controller and created a new domain with the same name as the existing domain.
They then decommissioned the old domain controller and removed the domain (only DC). Both SQL servers were then added to the new domain without removing the mirroring configuration.
Needless to say the mirroring is broke and can't be removed.
Is this a scenario anyone has come across before?
Thanks in advance.

Mirror - Application trying to connect to mirror DB randomly
Hello all,
So we have a couple of SQL Server 2008R2 instances involved on mirroring without witness and operating mode is asynchronous in all cases and we do not use witness, so there is no automatic failover.
After we set put mirroring in place, we started facing connections issue on our applications like this one:
org.apache.torque.TorqueException: org.apache.commons.dbcp.SQLNestedException: Could not retrieve connection info from pool Caused by: com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: Login failed for user XXXXXX.
After some investigation we saw in the alert log of the mirrored instance errors like this:
Login failed for user XXXXXX. Reason: An error occurred while evaluating the password.
Connection string used on the app side:
torque.dsfactory.service.connection.url = jdbc:sqlserver://SERVER_IP:INSTANCE_PORT;databaseName=DB_NAME;applicationName=APP_NAME torque.dsfactory.service.connection.user = XXXXXX
So, this makes me think that somehow the application is trying to connect to the mirrored instance instead of connect to the active one. Since all logins are disabled on the mirror side the connection is rejected.
I saw some persons asking the same, but never saw any explanation for this issues. Does anyone had this type of issues and knows what the problem is? I do not see any problem on the mirroring configuration, but I may be wrong...

Creating a 2012 database mirror across different subnets
I'm trying to create a database mirror between to different subnets. principal server is running sql 2012 and the mirror server on a different subnet is running 2014 server. i'm using a witness server on the same subnet as the principal server and running sql 2008 on it. i'm getting the error message
"The server network addresss "...:5022" can not be reached or does not exist. check the network address name adn that the ports for the local and remote endpoints are operational(1418)"
what i've read is that this is becuase of htem being on different subnets, is there a way around this?

Connection handshake failed
I am attempting to set up mirroring for the first time between two servers. The servers are on the same domain, I am using the wizard to setup mirroring, i am logged into each server using a domain account that has System Administrator privalges, this ID is a domain admin also, I can connect to each instance via SSMS in both directions, but cannot get the mirroring to work. When attempting to start mirroring I get this error on the Principle instance.
On the mirror instance I get this message in the SQL Server log
Logon,Unknown,Database Mirroring login attempt by user 'MNS\VIPERDB00$.' failed with error: 'Connection handshake failed. The login 'MNS\VIPERDB00$' does not have CONNECT permission on the endpoint. State 84.'. [CLIENT: 172.16.0.211]
MNS is the domain and viperdb00 is the server name
Any ideas?
