Tip This tutorial requires user input and an internet connection. If you are interested in the or installation procedures, see. Prerequisites You must have a RHEL 7.3 or 7.4 machine with at least 2 GB of memory. To install Red Hat Enterprise Linux on your own machine, go to. You can also create RHEL virtual machines in Azure. See, and use --image RHEL in the call to az vm create.
SQL Compare fully supports SQL Graph, and allows you to compare and deploy databases which include both graph and relational tables. Improved temporal tables support SQL Server 2017 Feature. Red/green highlighting in the SQL difference viewer. Today, however, you have a choice of having your applications connect to a Microsoft SQL Server that runs on either Windows or Linux.

If you have previously installed a CTP or RC release of SQL Server 2017, you must first remove the old repository before following these steps. For more information, see. For other system requirements, see. Tip If you want to try SQL Server 2019, you must instead register the Preview (2019) repository. Use the following command for SQL Server 2019 installations: sudo curl -o /etc/yum.repos.d/mssql-server.repo • Run the following commands to install SQL Server: sudo yum install -y mssql-server • After the package installation finishes, run mssql-conf setup and follow the prompts to set the SA password and choose your edition. Sudo /opt/mssql/bin/mssql-conf setup.
Note Make sure to specify a strong password for the SA account (Minimum length 8 characters, including uppercase and lowercase letters, base 10 digits and/or non-alphanumeric symbols). • Once the configuration is done, verify that the service is running: systemctl status mssql-server • To allow remote connections, open the SQL Server port on the firewall on RHEL. The default SQL Server port is TCP 1433. If you are using FirewallD for your firewall, you can use the following commands: sudo firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=1433/tcp --permanent sudo firewall-cmd --reload At this point, SQL Server is running on your RHEL machine and is ready to use! Install SQL Server To configure SQL Server on RHEL, run the following commands in a terminal to install the mssql-server package: • Download the Microsoft SQL Server 2019 preview Red Hat repository configuration file: sudo curl -o /etc/yum.repos.d/mssql-server.repo • Run the following commands to install SQL Server: sudo yum install -y mssql-server • After the package installation finishes, run mssql-conf setup and follow the prompts to set the SA password and choose your edition. Sudo /opt/mssql/bin/mssql-conf setup.
Note Make sure to specify a strong password for the SA account (Minimum length 8 characters, including uppercase and lowercase letters, base 10 digits and/or non-alphanumeric symbols). • Once the configuration is done, verify that the service is running: systemctl status mssql-server • To allow remote connections, open the SQL Server port on the firewall on RHEL. The default SQL Server port is TCP 1433.
If you are using FirewallD for your firewall, you can use the following commands: sudo firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=1433/tcp --permanent sudo firewall-cmd --reload At this point, SQL Server 2019 preview is running on your RHEL machine and is ready to use! Install the SQL Server command-line tools To create a database, you need to connect with a tool that can run Transact-SQL statements on the SQL Server. The following steps install the SQL Server command-line tools:.
• Download the Microsoft Red Hat repository configuration file. Sudo curl -o /etc/yum.repos.d/msprod.repo • If you had a previous version of mssql-tools installed, remove any older unixODBC packages. Sudo yum remove unixODBC-utf16 unixODBC-utf16-devel • Run the following commands to install mssql-tools with the unixODBC developer package. Sudo yum install -y mssql-tools unixODBC-devel • For convenience, add /opt/mssql-tools/bin/ to your PATH environment variable. This enables you to run the tools without specifying the full path. Run the following commands to modify the PATH for both login sessions and interactive/non-login sessions: echo 'export PATH='$PATH:/opt/mssql-tools/bin' >> ~/.bash_profile echo 'export PATH='$PATH:/opt/mssql-tools/bin' >> ~/.bashrc source ~/.bashrc Connect locally The following steps use sqlcmd to locally connect to your new SQL Server instance.
