Active Node

                                                        Active Node in a Cluster

Def: This script when run sends a mail whenever there is a change in the active node on which the SQL instance is currently running.

Please find the below link for code.

NOTE: Passive node is one that does not have any active service running on it (just like with SQL server services may not be running on passive node but that doesn't mean passive node can be offline). There is a quoram disk which has data on how the drive mapping must happen when the services failover.

An TLS 1.2 connection request was received from a remote client application, but none of the cipher suites supported by the client application are supported by the server. The TLS connection request has failed.

If the certificate being used on the server was generated using the Legacy Key option in the certificate request form, the private key for that certificate will be stored in Microsoft's legacy Cryptographic API framework. When the web server tries to process requests using its new, Cryptographic Next Generation (CNG) framework, it appears that something related to the RSA private key stored in the legacy framework is unavailable to the new framework. As a result, the use of the RSA cipher suites is severely limited. To avoid the issue, you can try to generate the certificate request using the CNG Key template in the custom certificate request wizard.

SQL Server

                                                                     SQL Server  Its been a while that I have updated my blog. Though Databases and SQL was something that I used to stay away as much as possible because for some reasons, I got to work on these all the day for 8-9 hours and sometimes haunting in the nights and weekends as well. However, it has been a good journey so far and I found some interesting stuff in SQL Server. So, this triggered an idea a couple of weeks back to share some cool stuff that I am learning in SQL Server over numerous sources. Hope I can make this a good series. As there are not much visitors to my blog, let me start with wishing me a good luck. So, here starts the SQL Server Series!!!!!!

Tail Log Backups

Tail log backups capture the tail of the log even if the database is offline, damaged, or missing data files. This might cause incomplete metadata from the restore information commands and msdb. However, only the metadata is incomplete; the captured log is complete and usable. If a tail-log backup has incomplete metadata, in the backupset table, has_incomplete_metadata is set to 1. Also, in the output of RESTORE HEADERONLY, HasIncompleteMetadata is set to 1. To create a tail log backup, use below script BACKUP LOG [DB Name]    TO [TLog_Device_Location]      WITH NO_TRUNCATE;   GO Scenarios That Require a Tail-Log Backup If the database is online and you plan to perform a restore operation on the database, begin by backing up the tail of the log. To avoid an error for an online database, you must use the ... WITH NORECOVERY option of the BACKUP Transact-SQL statement. If a database is offline and fails to start and you need to restore the database, first back up the ta
