I want to make a copy of our production database so I can do some testing stuff on it...
I basically want to just save the complete database with a name like testingXYZ.
Can I just do that through the normal file explore manager or is there some SQL Things I need to do?
Hello everyone!I'd like to know which method is better for making a copy of anexisting database in SQL Server 2000, restoring from a backup of theoriginal, or using DTS to copy the objects to the new database. Anycaveats or drawbacks to either method? I'm just trying to lay thegroundwork for internal policies for managing our databases, and I justwant to make sure we use the best method.Thanks!

View 4 Replies View RelatedI need to make a backup of a table so that if I mess it up I can put the data back to where I started...
I am going to insert some new rows and update values in some existing rows. So before I do this and find out I messed it up...how do I make a copy of Table A as Table B?
I would actually like to make a copy to table B, then run my changes into B, make sure all is correct, and then transfer the revised data from B over to table A replacing its data. What approach would be best here to accomplish this?
Thanks
I created my database on a remote server. It now has lots of tables and stored procedures
When I created it, the server created a schema named for me, the user, so all my tables and stored procedures are named like johndoe.tablename.
I would like to rename the schema to something less personal more professional.
Can it be as simple as "ALTER SCHEMA johndoe RENAME professional"?
Also, I would like to create a local copy of the databse, so I can develop offline, without the 2 second delay.
SQL Server Management Studio Express lets me generate scripts, which I have been using to make backups.
Can I use the script file to recreate the database on my local machine?
Thanks
Hi,
I set up DB mirror between a primary (SQL1) and a mirror (SQL2); no witness. I have a problem when I issue command:
alter database DBmirrorTest
Set Partner = N'TCP://SQL2.mycom.com:5022';
go
The error message is:
The remote copy of database "DBmirrorTest" has not been rolled forward to a point in time that is encompassed in the local copy of the database log.
I have the steps below prior to the command. (Note that both servers' service accounts use the same domain account. The domain account I login to do db mirror setup is a member of the local admin group.)
1. backup database DBmirrorTest on SQL1
2. backup database log
3. copy db and log backup files to SQL2
4. restore db with norecovery
5. restore log with norecovery
6. create endpoints on both SQL1 and SQL2
CREATE ENDPOINT [Mirroring]
STATE=STARTED
AS TCP (LISTENER_PORT = 5022, LISTENER_IP = ALL)
FOR DATA_MIRRORING (ROLE = PARTNER)
7. enable mirror on mirror server SQL2
:connect SQL2
alter database DBmirrorTest
Set Partner = N'TCP://SQL1.mycom.com:5022';
go
8. Enable mirror on primary server SQL1
:connect SQL1
alter database DBmirrorTest
Set Partner = N'TCP://SQL2.mycom.com:5022';
go
This is where I got the error.
The remote copy of database "DBmirrorTest" has not been rolled forward to a point in time that is encompassed in the local copy
Thanks for any help,

Hi,
I use Sql server express 2005.I have two databases: db1 and db2.I use Studio Management. I connect with my administrator account 'admin'.
1) When i rightclick on db1 (and also on db2) and i take the properties / general, i see for both db: owner = servernameadmin .When i take properties / Files, i see for db1: owner = servernameadmin , but for db2, it remains empty.why and does it mean that db2 has no owner? But then, why do i see in properties / general : owner = servernameadmin?
2) i want to make 'admin' owner of db2 (for creating a database diagram), so in properties / Files, i click on the button with three dots.A windows "select database owner" appears, i click on button 'browse', but then all i see is:built-in administartorsbuilt-in userssa...
Whatever i choose (e.g; built-in administrators), i get the message: an entity of database cannot be owned by a role, group ... error 15353).
Why do i not get the account 'admin' in the browse windows and how to make 'admin' owner of db2?
Thanks for helpT.
Hi All,
I am a bit new to using MS-SQL, up till now my main adminstration was in Oracle.
I have a question, my developers make changes to my MS-SQL databases, however, they always login as a local admin or use their domain WIndows accounts - with the given privileges. Then they amend the database.
My idea is to avoid logging into an MS-SQL server without using a Remote Desktop. So they will need some kind of a client.
What is your experience and what would be the best way to do this? Meaning, what software can I use that does not require a license fee?
With Oracle I can install the Oracle client which has an SQLPLUS to login remotely. Does MS-SQL have something similar?
Thanks in advance.
I did use Google to search, I also have an MS-SQL Developer Edition, but this seems to come with another server itself.
Regards,
Richard.

I am developing a web site with asp.net 2.0 and c#, using Visual Studio 2005 and Microsoft SQL Server 2005 ( I am still learning about these technologies and languages ).I transferred my web site files to my NEW computer. The web site worked fine when running inside Visual Studio, however when I tried to run it in its PUBLISHED format it was giving this error message:Server Error in '/MA' Application. Cannot open database "SiteData" requested by the login. The login failed.Login failed for user 'CENTAURUSASPNET'.I solved the problem by running SQL Server Management Stdio, right clicking “SiteData� database -> properties -> permissions->view server permissions then I chose “CENTAURUSASPNET� and since I DID NOT KNOW what grants are ESSENTIAL for the functioning of the database, I GRANTED EVERYTHING ( I ticked ALL the permissions).
But since, probably, a lot of GRANTS are not only unnecessary but also may compromise the security of the web site, I would like to know what are the ESSENTIAL OR MINIMUM GRANTS NECESSARY for making the database functional to the web site and what grants may represent a security risk.
I I work for a small business who has a somewhat successful ecommerce site. Our website is based on some VERY large DB's with 10's of millions of records, and 40+GB of images, so we choose to self host so we could easily manage the data. As things have grown and we've cobbled a fair amount of integration between the website databases and our internal systems. Fast forward 4-5 years, the website has grown to the point that self hosting is costing us a fortune in bandwidth costs, so I'm thinking of moving to a co-location facility. If I do that, I need to send the website tables along with it. Is there a replication stradagy that would allow us to have two independant DB's, both able to take updates that would sync with one another? My other thought is to spit the tables on two different DB's and let some of the data live in the co-location facility.. but I am worried about the performance impact for local users.

A system assertion check has failed. Check the SQL Server error log for details. Typically, an assertion failure is caused by a software bug or data corruption. To check for database corruption, consider running DBCC CHECKDB. If you agreed to send dumps to Microsoft during setup, a mini dump will be sent to Microsoft. An update might be available from Microsoft in the latest Service Pack or in a QFE from Technical Support.

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi guys,
I've been assigned the task of setting up access to our SQL Server 2005 box. A consultant developing for us has accessing to 2 databases and I've set this up fine. It appears however that one of these databases is re-copied over to the server every night to keep data reasonably current.
I'm not interesting in changing this method as I'm not the maintainer (as yet).
Basically I would like to know if I've setup access to this database (it works fine), when the database is updated (with an SSIS package) the account seems to get deleted. Do the original permissions from the source database overwrite those of its destination?
Cheers
I'm using SQL Server Management Studio Express and I'm trying to figure out how to copy a table(s) from my local database to my web hosting database. I know how to do it in 2000, but it's completely different now. Is this feature not allowed on SSMSE? If so, then how do I deploy database tables to a web host?Also, how do you add local database(s) to SSMSE? I tried to use 'attach database' in SSMSE and it wouldn't allow me to navigate to My Documents folder where the database resides. Thanks...
View 8 Replies View RelatedI want to make data changes in read_only database , that's why i must set database read_write. While database is at read_write mode, i want to be sure that no one makes change in database.
For this aim, i write the code below, but i suspect that after setting the database read_write, till the setting database
single_user ,is it possible get DML script from another user. Is the code below enough for this operation. Or is there another way?
Reminding: Read_only database can not be set single_user mode. That's why, first you must set database read_write.
The code;
use master
alter database xxx set read_write
with rollback immediate
alter database xxx set single_user
with rollback immediate
use xxx
update tablexxx set columnxxx=yyy
use master
alter database xxx set read_only
with rollback immediate
alter database xxx set multi_user
with rollback immediate

I am pretty new to SQL Server 7.0 and am having a problem. I have two databases, both on seperate SQL Servers. The problem I am having is I have a copy of one and a backup of the other. I need both of these to be restored into a third SQL Server I have locally. None of these Servers see each other so I can't register them. All I have to work with is the Backup and the copy. Can someone tell me how to accomplish this. I have tried to do restore and import.
Thanks so much in advance for any help.
