Hi,
I need to move a database from an instance running SQL Server 2000 SP3
to another running SQL Server 2000 SP2. Can I just use backup/restore
or detach/reattach and let SQL server take care of any downgrading (if
any).
Many thanks
Giovanni
We are getting frequently blocking in Report server database.
Is it ok to change isolation level to RCSI for report server database?
I have captured some trace output for performance evaluation for an application which has just been upgraded. Originally, this application can only run with database compatible 70.
So, after we have switched this level from 70 to 80, I noticed that all T-SQL statements which executed thru the use of "sp_executesql" have much higher IO usuage. The usage increased from approximately 50 I/O to approximately 12000 I/O. When I reviewed the profiler output, I noticed that all select statements which executed thru this "sp_executesql" statements performed "index scan".
When I switch back to run with database compatibility level 70, my profiler output shows that all these "sp_executesql" statements performed "index seek".
All these statements use the same unique non-clustered index.
Is it a SQL Server bug? Does anyone know which service pack or hot fix address this problem?
Thanks...byyu :)
Please advice me, now we are using service pack1, what is the latest service pack i can upgrade and has all the issues been recitified.
Thanks
Sort of new to MSSQL and I have a problem with my maintenance script not deleting files on 2 out of 3 servers so I am trying to determine what patch level I am at.
'Server A' works as expected:
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.2050.00 (Intel X86)
Feb 13 2007 23:02:48

These two servers don't:
Server B.
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.2050.00 (Intel X86)

Server C.

So I can see where I should patch server B to SP2 but why does Server C report as 9.00.1399 SP2?

I was wondering if there is a simple patch for 2000 server. It seems that the only fix is to edit the registry and to use the time zone editor app. If there is a simple patch like there is for the 2003 servers i would appreciate it if anyone can show me where. I have about 80+ servers with 2000!!!
Much appreciated!
I am trying to move a database which I wrote in SQL Server 2005 to a SQL Server 2000 database.
I'm not sure the best way to do this.......
Can anyone enlighten me?.....
I have a SQL Server 2005 Express database on my local machince called OpenAssess.mdf. The server we host with has a file extension of .mdb. How can I go about getting my database to the server?

Here is my connection string and then the error which is visible at the botton of openassessment.org.

Hi,
I have a database that resides on a server that`s become too old. It spans
2 devices that sit on 2 different drive letters - D: and E:.
I bought a new server, installed and configured NT4.0 and SQL6.5.
Initially I restored the database to the new server from a dump .It worked
fine, however all the login information was lost. Then I tried partitioning
the new server the same way as the old one and copying all the DAT files
over. Thus I was hoping to retain the information contained in the MASTER.DAT,
drop the database, repartition to create 1 physical drivewith 1 database device,
and restore from a dump to it.
After copying the DATs, though, SQL Server would not start.
Help Please!
I am not a SQL person. I want to copy/move a SQL datbase from old server to a new server and eventualy bring the old server down. What is the procedure to do it. Thanks in advance.

Hi all. I know that since you know nothing about my database it will
be a stretch to answer this - but does anyone have a boiler plate
checklist for moving a database, dts packages, agent jobs, etc...from
one server to another? Maybe something that just says I should at
least do x,y,z.
Also if anyone out there has any hard won experience/advice about
gotchas when doing this I would love to hear it. We have outgrown a
server and are installing a new one this week that we need to move
over to.
Thanks!
Sql Server 2000 is running on machine havivng two HDD. The HDD where SQL Server resides is reaching capacity. Only 3Gb is remaining. I want to move SQL Server database to other hard drive so that space problem would not occure. How to do it?
View 1 Replies View Relatedi need help moving a database to a new server.
I have an existing database on a Windows XP Pro box running MS SQL Server Desktop Engine 8.00.
I want to move this database to another machine running Windows Server 2003 Small Business Server w/full SQL Server (new edition).
I can see the database, and the directory structures are almost identical on both machines. But when I simply copy the data over nothing works. Obviously to me I must somehow back up the original database and restore it somehow on the new machine.
Any tips on where I begin? I have done searches in the Microsoft Knowledgebase for articles on how to backup and restore from one type SQL to another with frustrating results. No clear directions.
Thanks!
Hi
I have to copy (move) a database from one server to another .
One of the way of doing it is to take backup at source server and restore it at destination server .
I am doing it with the following series of statements .
================
At Source Server
================
USE master
EXEC sp_addumpdevice 'disk', 'DBName_Device',
'Irhahadb01F$mssqlackupDBName_Device.dat'
BACKUP DATABASE DBName TO DBName_device
=====================
At Destination Server
=====================
--Copy file (DBName_Device.Dat) from Source backup folder to Destination Backup folder
USE master
EXEC sp_addumpdevice 'disk', 'DBName_Device',
'Irhadvdb02D$mssql7ackupDBName3_Device.dat'
RESTORE DATABASE DBName
FROM DBName_Device
WITH RECOVERY,
MOVE '<Data File Name without .mdf>' TO
'irhadvdb02D$mssql7data<New Data File Name>.mdf' ,
MOVE '<Log File name without .ldf>' TO
'irhadvdb02D$mssql7data<New Log File Name>.ldf'
Above step works fine for one of the test database which small in size.
But it fails for the large database having Data file (.mdf) as 2.5GB and log file as 1.5GB .It says " not enough space on network drive to restore database" . But fact is that I have 200 GB free space on the server .
Please advice .

View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
I'm developing a website using the new authentication system from asp.net 2.0 and when I try to copy the database to my server and I try to add data to it, it gives me a read-only error.
I've tried several ways, but I can't seem to find the solution. It works well in my computer but if I move it to the server it just doesn't work.
Is there anything I need to do? I have all the permissions needed in IIS.

I am new to sql server world as I am a controls engineer who is being asked to manage an asset management system at our facility. We have a system that uses SQL 2005 Express. My database is on drive C, but it is only 10gig and it is running out of space. I have a 210 GIG hard drive as drive D. What is the easiest way to move the database from C to D?
View 18 Replies View RelatedHi All, first post.
I have done a bit of searching around and cant find a clear answer to this question.
Current Setup
Desktop application (c#) that connects to a SQL Server 2005 express database on the same local network as the application (currently 3 users)
It is only a very small company and has just taken on their first remote worker, but expects to take on another 6-8 over the next few months. They have asked for the database to be moved online.
The application was written in such a way that everything has been done using no stored procs, or views, it is all native SQL.
This will be my first DB hosted online and before I go ahead and do anything I just wanted to make sure what I have to do is correct, sorry if this is a very basic question, although I have been programming for a long time, I have never had the chance to do any online databases before.
Will this work.
1.Find a SQL Server 2005 Hosting company.
2.Move the database to the server.
3.Setup the users permissions.
3.Alter the connection string in the application to point to the new location.
So the only thing that would change would be a new connection string in the application preferences?
Or am I living in a dream world, because nothing is ever that simple.
One thing I am worried about is the security/visiblity of the database and data as it travels from the server to the client and back.
Thanks for any advise you can give.

I have about 50,000 data entries to move from MS Access to SQL Server 2005 Express. There is no DTS in the tools. I already have the tables, just need to move the data. Appreciate any and all help.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi,
My question kind of covers a couple of areas.
I have written some SQL 05 CLR code that produces a single DLL file. I have specified that the code is 'Safe' e.g. it will not be carrying out any external assembly access or other file accesss.
The code simply contains some stored procedures that will update/instert etc data from the database.
The question is, how do I actually deploy the code to a a remote server? Do i simply take the DLL and use CREATE ASSEMBLY code to set it up?
Furthermore, are there any security issues i need to consider when i deploy the assembly given that I have already set up the security to be 'Safe' ? e.g. is there anyway that a database can be locked down so that CLR code would not run irrespective of the safe setting.
As far as I understand it, SQL CLR code is ran under the SQL Server service account, so does this mean that if this user is locked down the code would not run?
Any clarifications or extra info would be greatly appreciated.

SQL Users/DBAs,I'm trying to move data files around for a database that is in standbymode. I can detach/attach the database fine usingSP_DETACH_DB/SP_ATTACH_DB , but when I re-attach the database the logsequence is broken and I can't restore any more logs. Does anyoneknow if there is a way to move around data files and keep the databasein standby mode?Thanks,JB

I am new to the sql server, we need to move the database from one server to another from developer's edition to standard edition of sql server 2005. it has the reproting services and lot of reporting service jobs are running on the server now. we need to move all those jobs also to the new server. could some body help me on how to move the database and reporting services jobs to the another server. Thanks!
I have been programming an application with VC++ 2005 and SQL Server 2005. I have converted an old 16-bit database to 32-bit managed code and SQL server and the application seems to be good. Now I want to deploy the application to another server for testing.
I have installed XP SP2, Windows Installer 3.1, Net framework 2.0 and SQL Server 2005 express to the test server. I have transferred the application with WI 3.1 and the program works well in the test server till the first SQL command. I have made a back up of the database and restored it in the test server. In the test server I can log in the database with Server Management studio and I can read the data there correctly. I have enabled both named pipes and TCP/IP for the database in the test server. With Surface Area Configuration I have enabled Local and Remote Connections Using both TCP/IP and named pipes. I only need Windows authentication at this time.
After all this when I come to the first SQL command in the application on the test server I receive the error message:
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 €“ Could not open a connection to SQL Server).
My connection string to the database is:
'connection->ConnectionString = "Persist Security Info=False; Integrated Security =SSPI;"
"Data Source=TESTSERVER; Initial Catalog=TESTDATABASE;";'
When I use "Data Source=DevelopmentServer", the application works well on the development server.
Can't understand what is still wrong. Can you possibly have an answer for me?
On Saturday we moved a few databases from SQL Server 2005 to a SQL Server 2012 cluster; and as expected some jobs have been failing because of this. The Job in Question executes two stored procedures and then an SSIS package; however when I ran the Job it failed with the error
Msg 7411, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Server 'servername' is not configured for RPC
I therefore configured the Server for RPC with the following script: -
exec sp_serveroption @server='servername', @optname='rpc', @optvalue='true'
GO
But the job failed again. So I therefore reran the script with the reconfigure option: -
exec sp_serveroption @server='OCELOT7CLUST', @optname='rpc', @optvalue='true'
GO
reconfigure with override
go
But again the job failed. I then closed SSMS and reopened it and attempt to run the job again and once again it failed.This is not an issue with the Linked Server as the linked Server is connecting as sa.

Hi, i was after some advice on moving a SQL Server 2000 database from one server to another.
Usually i would do this by backing up the database on the original server the copying it accross the LAN to the new server and restoring it there. This database is 10Gb in size and copying it accross the LAN will take some time and i would like to minimise downtime if possible. The database is at a customer site where i am not responsible for the network or Hardware.
Thanks in advance for your help

Hello all,
I hope someone can help with my current issue as i have now spent the last 8
hours trying to solve it! Here goes...
I am currently moving all my websites from our in house set up to a FASTHOSTS
dedicated server. Our in house set up consists of separate server for web
and data and works well even with my recent foray into .Net sites.
I have just moved the most recent of my .Net sites
(http://www.alfadealerads.co.uk/home.aspx) to the FASTHOSTS server and cannot
get the site to connect to the database (this has also been installed on the
FASTHOSTS server). One of the pages that connects to the DB is
http://www.alfadealerads.co.uk/links.aspx, where i am getting the error..
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Cannot open database requested in login
'MasseratiChauffeurDrive'. Login fails.
Login failed for user 'lateral'.
This DB has been restored from back up from the original DB. I have
recreated the user name on the new SQL server and added it to the new DB
also. I am using a webconfig to connect to the DB, the exact same one
that works on my current live server
(http://www.maseratichauffeurdrive.com/home.aspx) only with the obvious change
to the SQL server name.
The only difference i can see in the 2 setups is that the new one has both the
webserver and the SQL server on the one machine and that machine uses domains.
My current in house setup does not use domains and as mentioned before web and
date are 2 separate servers.
Can anyone help? Or even understand what the hell i have written? lol
Thanks in advance
I missed the days of 6.5 when I can take a database from one server create a device for LOAD on another sever and use the LOAD database command to put that database on another server that has MS SQL SERVER on it..
