Upgrades from Earlier Versions to SQL Server 2014

We can find the supported upgrades to SQL Server 2014 from the below link:

https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143393.aspx

SSRS Upgrade: 

• Upgrade: You upgrade the Reporting Services components on the servers and instances where they are currently installed. This is commonly called an “in place” upgrade. In-place upgrade is not supported from one mode of Reporting Services server to another. For example, you cannot upgrade a Native Mode report server to a SharePoint mode report server. You can migrate your report items from one mode to another. For more information, see the ‘Native to SharePoint Migration’ section later in this document.
  
• Migrate: You install and configure a new SharePoint environment, copy your report items and resources to the new environment, and configure the new environment to use existing content. A lower level form of migration is to copy the Reporting Services databases, configuration files, and if you are using SharePoint mode, the SharePoint content databases.

Grant execute permission to all SP's in the DB

/*
Below code will grant execute permission to all SP's in the DB.
Using below script we can grant permission to all other objects/other permission
 in the DB to diffrent users.


*/
select name into #temp_sp_list from sys.objects where type ='P' order by 1

declare @sp_count int,@sp_name varchar(50)

--select top 1 @sp_name=name from #temp_sp_list

To stop multiple traces on server

	Here in the steps to stop the traces:_ Step 1: Find out what are all running select * FROM :: fn_trace_getinfo(default) Step 2: Stop them by passing trace id and status   sp_trace_setstatus 3, 0 go sp_trace_setstatus 3, 2
	Syntax sp_trace_setstatus [ @traceid = ] trace_id     , [ @status = ] status
	0 Stops the specified trace. 1 Starts the specified trace. 2 Closes the specified trace and deletes its definition from the server.

Replication _ IMP

SSIS 2012 Deployment Errors

Thanks To Original Thread:

http://capstonebi.blogspot.de/2012/09/ssis-2012-deployment-frustrations.html

https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/804901/ssis-2012-deploying-new-versions-of-large-projects-runs-into-a-timeout-during-deployment-into-ssis-catalog

Failed to deploy project. For more information, query the operation_messages view for the operation identifier ’219′. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 27203)

Solution:
To verify detail error message:
======================
select * from catalog.operation_messages
where operation_id=10069

The message column reads as follows:

 

Failed to deploy the project. Fix the problems and try again later.:Timeout expired.  The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.
The statement has been terminated.

As the person deploying the project, I can’t “help” the Deployment Wizard with tweaking any queries, but I could see what it was doing using SQL Profiler.  The query that caught my attention is the following:

 

exec [internal].[sync_parameter_versions] @project_id=2,@object_version_lsn=10

Notice the number of reads(1.7M) and the duration(30 seconds).  I acquired the query plan for this stored procedure and found that it would run much faster if the following two indexes are applied to the SSISDB database.
