Create View using Linked Server db in SQL Server

问题:

How can I create View on Linked Server db. For Example I have a linked server [1.2.3.4] on [5.6.7.8]. Both db servers are SQL Sserver 2005. I want to create View on [5.6.7.8] using table on linked server.

EDIT:

On creating using full name, [1.2.3.4].db.dbo.table, I am getting this error.

SQL Execution Error.

Executed SQL statement: SELECT * FROM 1.2.3.4.db.dbo.table (YOu can see brackets are not there.) Error Source: .Net SqlClient Data Provider Error Message: Incorrect syntax near '0.0'. ---> part of IP address.

I am just creating this in ManagementStudio, not using it because it is not created yet. I Have changed IP. In image you can see there are not brackets around IP but I given it and on error these brackets are removed.

Thanks.

You need to use the four part qualified name: linkedserver.database.schema.table

SELECT * FROM [1.2.3.4].Northwind.dbo.Customers

Here is an MSDN article about accessing object names.

You might want to try manually creating the view, rather than using the SQL Management tools:

CREATE VIEW [dbo].[sywx]
AS
    SELECT  *
    FROM    [1.2.3.4].Atia.dbo.IpPbxDCR
GO

I also recommend that you use a name, if possible, for the linked server rather than using the IP address.

Its a SQL Management Studio Issue. If you try to create the view using management studio NEW VIEW then you get that error incorrect syntax.

But if you use SQL Query:

CREATE VIEW [dbo].[viewname] 
AS 
    SELECT  * 
    FROM    [0.0.0.0].database.dbo.table 
GO 

then it will work.

To test you will see the view created when you refresh views. If you just do a select query from the view you will see the view return results.

But if you try to go into design mode for that view and try executing the design query the error will pop up again even though the view was successfully created.

If the linked server is set up, you just reference tables on it using a four-part qualified name:

linkedserver.database.schema.table

So if your linked server name is [0.0.0.0], you can reference a table as:

[0.0.0.0].database.schema.table

回答4:

your main problem is naming your Link Server with numbers (IP address). The only way that worked for me was using an alphabetical name for my Link Server without any dot '.' You can use these lines of code to add your link server and authentication:

    EXEC sp_addlinkedserver   
        @server='TEST_LINK', 
        @srvproduct='',
        @provider='SQLNCLI', 
        @datasrc='tcp:0.0.0.0'

    EXEC sp_addlinkedsrvlogin
        @useself='FALSE',
        @rmtsrvname='TEST_LINK',
        @rmtuser='user',
        @rmtpassword='secret'

For linked servers using the periods for a web service name - this won't work.
The code details and steps of the difference is posted at:
http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=260764
e.g. FROM [V2.EGG.COM]..[NAT_DBA].[NV_WELLS]
In SSMS 2008, the square brackets around the [V2.EGG.COM].. are removed by the editor. Then the update failes because it is more than 4 parts.
Have searched in vain to find a work-around.
The Script that does work is posted at the link above.

You can also just drag and drop the table/view object from the linked server into your view and Management Studio will create the four part reference for you.

回答7:

You need to define a Linked Server before you can access it, since the linked server entry also contains the authentication details.

After creating a linked server, you can access its databases and their objects using the dot notation servername.database.[owner].object
