MORE INFORMATION
================

CD-ROM: Correction To Runbcpa.cmd File (Chapter 6)
--------------------------------------------------

Page 143 walks you through the steps to import data using the bcp utility. If you
choose to use the completed batch file for this exercise, instead of creating
your own, a typo in the Runcpa.cmd file (C:\Sqladmin\Exercise\Ch06\Runcpa.cmd)
needs to be corrected. The space between "/e" and "C:\Sqladmin..." was omitted.

Change:

bcp StudyNwind..Products in c:\sqladmin\exercise\ch06\newprods.txt /c /t"," /r\n /ec:\sqladmin\exercise\ch06\newprods.err /b250 /m50 /SSQLSERVER /Usa

To:

bcp StudyNwind..Products in c:\sqladmin\exercise\ch06\newprods.txt /c /t"," /r\n /e c:\sqladmin\exercise\ch06\newprods.err /b250 /m50 /SSQLSERVER /Usa

Please remember that this command should contain no hard returns and that
"/SSQLSERVER" should be replaced with your server name if your server name is
not SSQLSERVER.


Page xxx: Corrections For Installing StudyNwind Database
--------------------------------------------------------

On page xxx, the instructions for using the StudyNwind Database do not mention
that you must have SQL already installed on your computer to run the batch file.
In fact, the previous page, xix, indicates that you will not install SQL Server
until Chapter 2.

Note: You must install SQL Server before running the batch file as outlined in
the instructions in the section titled "Using the StudyNwind Database".


Page 118: Change Drop to Remove
-------------------------------

On page 118, under "Using Automatic File Growth" section, in lines 4 and 6 of the
altering database syntax example, change DROP to REMOVE.

Change:
"| DROP FILE logical_file"

"| DROP FILEGROUP filegroup"

To:
"| REMOVE FILE logical_file"

"| REMOVE FILEGROUP filegroup"


Page 126: Connection Between RAID Level And Fault Tolerance Incorrect
---------------------------------------------------------------------

On page 126, in the "Leveraging Windows NT Server Fault Tolerance" section, the
information about the RAID level and its corresponding fault tolerance is
incorrect.

Change:
"The levels are ranked numerically according to their ability to provide fault
tolerance. RAID 0 provides no fault tolerance, whereas RAID 5 provides the best
fault tolerance."

To:
"RAID 0 provides no fault tolerance, whereas RAID 1 provides the best fault
tolerance"


Page 162: Step 42 Incorrectly Duplicates Step 38
------------------------------------------------

On page 162, in the exercise titled "Creating a Package with DTS Designer," steps
38 and 42 are identical.

Step 42 should read:
"In the Source Step column, select Create ProductsCopy. In the Precedence column,
select Success. Note that you cannot change the Destination Step, because you
are editing the precedence constraints for Copy data from Access to SQL Server,
which is the destination step. Click OK to close the Workflow Properties dialog
box and save the precedence constraints for Copy data from Access to SQL
Server."


Page 302: Sp_addrolemember Example Incorrect
--------------------------------------------

Page 302, fifth line down:
Change:
"sp_addrolemember 'Carl', 'db_datareader' "

To:
"sp_addrolemember 'db_datareader', 'Carl' "


Page 354, Exercise 4: Steps 2 Through 5 Are Incorrect
-----------------------------------------------------

On page 354, Exercise 4, replace steps 2 through 5 with the following steps:

2. In the console tree, right-click the server, click Properties. click the
Server Settings tab, then click Change.
3. In the Profile Name drop-down list, select SQLServerAgent Profile.
4. Click Test.

  A message appears, indicating that the test was successful. Click OK to close
  the message.

5. Click OK to close the SQL Server Properties dialog box.

  A message appears asking you if you want to restart SQL Server Agent so that
  the changes you have made will take effect. Click Yes. Click OK when the
  service has restarted.


Page 474: Incorrect statement for step 8
----------------------------------------

On page 474, change the statement in step 8 to select from the ReplProducts
table.

Statement should read:

  	USE PullSubs
  	SELECT * FROM ReplProducts WHERE ProductID = 1
