Sql BackUp Location

Oct 19, 2006

 
It is very intersting to find out that when we are backuping a database we are not able to specify a shared folder .Why?
Is it because security concern or it is idenfied as bug or is there any work around.
Only thing we are able to specify is that it points to the local drive of the particular server.
 Help would be more appericated.

Different Backup Location For Individual Users

Nov 6, 2007

Hi,


My customers are having problems to restore their own db.

They use SQL Server Management Studio and when they try to restore their db from a device and add the backup file an error message comes up stating that the user does not have permission to C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLBackup.

How can I set a different backup location for each user?


Kindest regards,

SQL 2012 :: Access To Central Backup Location

Dec 11, 2014

SQL Server service accounts; the default (and recommended) service account is NT ServiceMSSQLServer virtual service account - which is shown as MSSQLSERVER locally - if you want to assign permissions to a local location. Fine, that's OK, works.

For network resources, as far as I understand it (or think I do, anyway), a virtual service on a box is made visible to the network using the <Domain><Computer>$ credential. Eg for box Bimble on Domain Wimble - if I want to give access to a directory on backupServer1, I simply assign rights to WimbleBimble$ and SQL Server should get those rights.

This, or so I thought, should allow SQL Server access to that location. The thing is, when trying to access that location, it's throwing an access denied error. But it works fine with LocalSystem.

Do I need to do some additional configuration to allow the Virtual Service account to be shown via <Domain><Computer>$ ?

Select Backup Location -- Cannot Verify The Existence

Sep 15, 2007

When attempting to backup a database using Management Studio, I receive a ""Cannot verify the esistence of the backup file location. Do you want to use the backup file location anyway?" yes/no messsage afer entering a file directory which exists. When entering a new directory, when I select "yes," a file locaiton will not be created, however, the backup operation continues to success. Originally, I had configured the sql services to execute under a user account with domain admin and administrative privledges, and I vverified the folder's security config permited write access. I reinstalled and now al SQL services are executing as "Local System" (or "Network Service") with same problem.

Any recommendations as to how to correct what I am doing wrong? (Thanks).

Jamie

BACKUP LOG Cannot Be Performed Because There Is No Current Database Backup. BACKUP LOG Is Terminating Abnormally.

Jan 31, 2008



Hi there

I'm getting this message on my third automated backup of the transaction logs of the day. Both databases are in full recovery mode, both successfully backed up at 01.00. The transaction logs backed up perfectly happily at 01:30 and 05:30, but failed at 09:30.

The only difference between 05:30 and 09:30's backups is that the log files were shrunk at 08:15 (the databases in question are the ones that sit under ILM2007, and keeping the log files small keeps the system running better).


Is it possible that shrinking the log files causes the database to think that there hasn't been a full database backup?

Thanks

Jane

Install Location

Feb 20, 2001

Can someone tell me what the default installation location
is for SQL 2000? Is it different for the default instance
compared to a named instance? What about the tools? It
seems to me I read something about the tools defaulting
to the program filesmicrosoft SQL Server directory.

I guess I'm more concerned about each instance and the
location of those files. I don't necessarily like the
idea of each instance installing to the program files
directory, if that's the default.

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks

Tempdb Location

Jul 24, 2007

We have three separate disks for our sql server.
Disk c : system
Disk d : data
Disk e : logs

A couple of months ago our IT manager moved the tempdb database from the c drive to the d and e drives because it had grown to 9Gb and the c drive had run out of space. When I discovered this, I shrank tempdb back to it's specified size of 1.9Gb and now I want to move it back to the c drive because I believe we will see better performance with the system + tempdb together than with the data/logs + tempdb together. Am I correct?

A couple of notes. Server is used exclusively by SQL server. We have three large databases (40Gb, 20Gb, 15Gb), three databases around 4Gb databases and around 15 smaller databases. Most of them are accessed exclusively from a web application.

Log File Location

Jun 3, 2008

Easy question, I hope We are setting up an active active sql cluster. The management have done everything the wrong way around and purchased the hardware already.

We are planning on having 2 databases 1 in each instance. We will place the transaction log files for each database on their own cluster "physical disk" resource. We only have 4 disks availalbe for the transaction log files. To make things a little more complicated I have been given no information on the expected transaction use other than they should be no larger than 50GB

Here are my options

1. 2 Mirrored raid arrays one for each sql instance
2. 1 Raid 10 array with 2 logical drives (so the transaction logs are sharing the same disk spindles)

What would you do? seperate the disk spindles or share them and go for fast disk performace.

Thanks in advanced

Searching From And To Location

Nov 7, 2007

Hi all,

I hope someone can give me some tips on how to implement a nice solution.

I need a table to store distances between 2 locations.

First thought was to make a table like this
- id
- fromid
- toid
- distance

However distances can be used in both directions.
So a search to get distance between xx and yy would be: select distance where (fromid = xx and toid = yy) or (fromid=yy and toid=xx)

A unique index (fromid, toid) would make sure no double entries are made, but this still doesn't deny anyone from changing from and to and entering a distance in the other direction (from yy to xx)

Any suggestions for a cleaner db design ?
Ideally one where searches don't need the or, or where the db design can restrict people from entering a distance in the other direction ?
I could force something in business logic to sort locations alphabetically but that also seems like a dirty trick..

Aeneas.

System DB's Location

Oct 2, 2007

I have an installation of SQL2005 SP1 configured as follows:

Dell Poweredge 2650 with 4 GB RAM
c:, d: and e: are all on the local host and f: and g: drives are on a SAN. I have the system db's on the e: local disk and the Team Foundation Server databases and logfiles on the SAN disks. SQL2005 is installed to the E: disk.

We are migrating VSS to TFS and our times are very long for a simple 1 GB migration.

I need to know if I need the application databases and logfiles and system databases on the same disk because I see a lot of disk thrash and the tempdb is getting large, 3 GB today.

SQL architecture - should the system db's be on the same disk as the application db's?

Thanks

SQL CE Installation Location

Jul 17, 2006

Hi,

When the battery dies the SQL Ce installation vanishes. Especially the following dlls which were copied into the Windows directory during installation are getting vanished when the battery dies.

sqlCese30.dll
sqlCepqp30.dll
sqlcemme30.dll
sqlceer30EN.dll

I guess this is because of the fact that RAM content vanishes when the power goes off.

Is there a way i could install the SQL CE in the Storage Card?

I can install the Compact Framework in the Storage Card but not the SQL CE.


I have installed the CF, My application in the Storage Card. Just because of this SQL CE does not allow me to choose the installation directory, i have to install the SQL CE everytime the battery dies out.

Db Location Of Sql Express.

May 10, 2007

How do you know what exactly to use as the database name?



In school the prof says he is not exactly a database programmer but gave us some code he had from an old one. That code worked fine if you want to actually connect to the database at school but I want to send everything right through sqlexpress on my own machine so I can work on the programs at home.



The following is the code to connect to the school database, how would I change it to connect through sqlexpress instead?








Code Snippet

using System;

using System.Data;

using System.Data.SqlClient;

using System.Drawing;

using System.Collections;

using System.ComponentModel;

using System.Windows.Forms;



namespace Database

{

/// <summary>

/// Summary description for Class1.

/// </summary>

public class Class1

{

SqlConnection connection;

public Class1()

{

}//closes constructor

public void connect(string computerID)

{

connection = new SqlConnection("Data Source = " + computerID +

"; Initial Catalog = test; Integrated Security = SSPI");

try

{

if(connection.State == ConnectionState.Closed)

connection.Open();

}//closes try

catch(Exception ex)

{

MessageBox.Show("connection no" + ex.Message.ToString());

}//closes catch

}//closes connection method

public void Write(string Name, string ID, string Grade, string Average)

{

string add = "INSERT INTO Example VALUES('" + Name + "', '" +

ID + "', '" + Grade + "', '" + Average + "');";

try

{

connect("DNV-WS-RM336INS");

SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand(add, connection);

command.ExecuteNonQuery();

}//closes try

catch(Exception ex)

{

MessageBox.Show(ex.Message.ToString());

}//closes catch

this.connection.Close();

}//closes write mehtod

public string Read()

{

string Info = "";

SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand("select * from Example;", connection);

SqlDataReader reader = command.ExecuteReader();

try

{

while(reader.Read())

Info += reader.GetString(1).ToString() + " " +

reader.GetString(2).ToString() + " " +

reader.GetString(3).ToString() + " " +

reader.GetString(4).ToString() + "";

}//closes try

catch(Exception ex)

{

MessageBox.Show("read Method " + ex);

//Console.WriteLine("Error retrieving data.");

}//closes catch

reader.Close();

return Info;

}//closes read method

}//closes class

}//closes namespace



What I tried was replacing the dialog for the school database with just the text sqlexpress but that certainly didn't work.

Database Location

Jul 13, 2006

Got a couple of questions

1. If you are managing databases in SQL Express with SQL Server Managment Express CTP, why doesnt VBE place the database there where you can see them? I can create a database inside SQL Server Managment Express CTP and view its tables, relations,etc. from within SQL Server Managment Express CTP, but when I make a database with VBE it does not show up in SQL Server Managment Express CTP. Also the database that was made inside SQL Server Managment Express CTP cannot be seen from VBE. Why? what did I do wrong, or is it supposed to be like that? Is that where you would want to place a database for multiple pc to share?

2.Login Question ;-----shouldnt post this here but,

Is there a reason why you dont want to use SQL Authetication over Windows? The are a few pcs here that doesnt have user accounts installed(I know that not a good practice, but when you have multiple people needing different data quickly- switching users is not preferred, its a time thing for what I would call dummy terminals).

How do you take an instance of SQL and change to SQL Authetication over windows?

Curious?

Databases Location

Sep 21, 2007

Hi all,

Need Some Advice€¦

Current Setup of the Databases:

All €œsystem databases€? + €œreportserver & reportservertempdb€? are on €œ D drive€? --- Raid 1 ( Mirrored) and their location is : D:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLData

Free Space left on "D" Drive is # 18 Gb.

€œUser Databases€? are on ---- €œE Drive€? --- Raid 5 and their location is E:Datadb

Now , we got new storage device with much larger capacity. So, we are planning to transfer our databases on this new drive which is €œRAID 5€?.

My question is:

(1) Should I transfer all the databases ( (i.e.) €œsystem databases€?+ €œreportserver & ReportServerTempdb€? + €œUser databases€?) on that new drive ( RAID 5).
(OR)

(2) Keep the €œsystem databases€? + €œReportServer& ReportServerTempdb€? on the old
drive (i.e.) RAID 1 and Transfer only the €œUSER Databases€? on that new drive (i.e.) RAID 5.
(OR)

(3) Transter only Tempdb to the new drive (i.e.) on Raid 5, so as to avoid any I/O congestion. and keep all other system & ReportServer & ReportServerTempdb on the old "D"drive.
(OR)

(4) Is there anything I should be careful when doing this & Is there any better way of doing this€¦.

Thanks for all your help€¦.
