Hi all,
To move SQL server on SRV1 to SRV2, I use following steps:
1. Detach all my user-databases on SRV1
2. Stop SQL Server on SRV1, SRV2
3. Copy all my user-databases files on SRV1 to SRV2
4. Copy MASTER files on SRV1 overwrite to MASTER files on SRV2
5. Restart SQL on SRV2
6. Attach all my user-databases o SRV2
then when I use SELECT @@SERVERNAME on SRV2, I get result SRV1. Which the best way to update system with right server name?
Thanks for any help,
PTH
We have an old machine which holds SQL server 2000 database. We need to migrate a whole database to a new machine which has SQL server 2005.
When we tried to move whole database using Import and Export Wizard, only tables can be selected to import/export. However we want to import/export the whole database, including tables, stored procedure, view, etc. Which tool should we use?

We have a SQL Server 2000 ent edition sp4 with 3 small databases and one 4 GB database which is REPLICATED The Server has been bouncing like a yoyo today because of a disk controller problem and I am preparing to move the Instance to a whole new server this afternoon. The new Server will have the same IP and name as the original server.
Any suggestions for the easiest or most seamless way to make this happen? preferably using Backup and Restore since they plan on taking the old server down completely and then building a new server with the same name and IP ... any suggestions would be appreciated.
I moved the web app. I'm working on to another machine. Everything seemed to go well. Installed Reporting Services and configuration worked well with green ticks everywhere and I'm running reports in Report manager and in Visual Studio. However running off the web app. gives the message:
"The attempt to connect to Report Server failed" - there's also a ref. to an HTTP 404 error.
The install might not have gone as well as I thought because there was a "ReportServer" website created in IIS at same level as default. (Also Reports and ReportServer as virtual directories under Default website). The rogue website is 'stopped' at present. Would be grateful for any help with this. One thing is that I'm now behind a proxy so I'm using localhost:8080
I used aspnet_regsql to put membership tables, etc on sql server 2005. Is there a tool to help me build the web.config statement to point to these tables? I found the code below at http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/UploadFile/dsdaf/104092006022507AM/1.aspx?ArticleID=bc2ca2b0-9e3d-42ad-b4b9-0dce96231ce6 but it throws this error: Parser Error Message: Unrecognized configuration section membership. <membership> <providers> <remove name="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider" /> <add connectionStringName="MyDBConnectionString" enablePasswordRetrieval="false" enablePasswordReset="true" requiresQuestionAndAnswer="true" applicationName="/" requiresUniqueEmail="false" passwordFormat="Hashed" maxInvalidPasswordAttempts="5" minRequiredPasswordLength="7" minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="1" passwordAttemptWindow="10" passwordStrengthRegularExpression="" name="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider" type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider, System.Web, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" /> </providers> </membership
We have 3 MSDE databases (3 seperate servers) which we need to make into one Sql 2000 server (new server). How is this done? Can't find anything clear about this.
Is this even possible? I tried to move an existing Sql Server Express .mdf file to SQL Server 2000 by copying the .mdf file to the server's folder and then tried to attach it. I get:
Error 602: Could not find row in sysindexes for database ID 9, object ID 1, index ID1. Run DBCC CHECKTABLE on sysindexes.
I realize that I'm moving back a version in SQL, however the structure of the database is very simple. Does anyone know?
Even if I can just script the thing to SQL 2000 would be helpful, however the .mdf is a file within my ASP.Net site, and does not show up in my Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express under the appropriate SERVERNAMESQLEXPRESS either, so I can't figure out how to script it out?
Hi guys, I have tried to use the sp_help_revlogin script to move logins from a sql 2000 server to a sql 2005 server. It works for users that have a password. But if the password is blank it will fail. Is there a work around for this since I can't change the users passwords? I have also tried SSIS package but that too doesn't work because of the same reason.
how can we manage the db transfer when we are upgrading from 2000 to 2005? what is the right way to do that? where can we find something to read about it?
I need information on steps to upgrade my current Master(MSX) server to a new server. My MSX is a SQL 2K and it keep track of jobs in about 70 servers, some 2K and some 2K5.
I have several jobs (most scripted in activeX) that I need to move to a different server. Is there an easy way to "copy and paste" them from one server to the other? (SQL7 to SQL2k)
I have a db that I created on my local machine and need to move it to our server. The problem is that I created it with sql server 2005 express and our server is a sql server 2000 so restore and attach don't work. I don't have management studio (just express) so I don't know what I need to do to move it. Any help is appreciated.
Our company develop software based on SQL7 . ”DBA” position is really a developing (creation of triggers, stored procedure …) Could you give an advice from you personal experience what task should I practice in order to be ready for real DBA job and how YOU moved from developer to DBA
I am fairly new to SQL Server 7. I have a SQL server database on one machine (box A). Now I installed a new box with SQL server on it (box B). How do I move the database from box A to box B?
What are the steps involved? What is the easiest way to do it? What files need to be copied over?
Hi, all. I have more than 100 DTS packages on one server which need to be migrated to another new server. What's the easiest way to do it? I can do it by opening each package then using save as to save into another server. But I have more than 100, so it is kind of tedious to do it.
Is there a way like export those packages then import them? Or script them then run it? If yes, Let me know how.
We are currently moving our environment. I was told that we need to copy all the stuff over. More specifically, we want to move everything except the data, as our data is dynamic and will fill up in a few days by itself.
What is the best way to move everything over from one server instance to another?
My current approach is the following:
1. Create the file groups we have on our current server on the new server 2. Script out all databases with stored procedures, functions, views, priviliges, indexes ... 3. Script out all the jobs 4. Script out all the dts packages (or rather save each in a file) 5. Load all scripts into the new sql server 6. Re-create user accounts (can these be scripted out also and then loaded?)
Am I missing something or is there a wiser alternative?
What is the best and safest way to move all databases(almost 500GB total) from our existing server(2000) to the new server(2005).and What about the jobs and SSIS(DTS) Packages.Thanks
I have worked mostly in oracle, and new to sql server. I am trying to move a very small table from oracle database to sql server database. I see a different methods I can do this, I guess DTS etc. I tried import wizard in SSMS, I was not succesful in that. Can any expert suggest me any possible ways of doing this the best way? Thank you very much!
I'm building a DTS package on my development server which I want tomove to my test server. I can save the file and import it, but thereare connections etc that will be named differently.Is there a quick and easy way of changing the names of connections ? Ialso have some CSV files used for import/export (quicker than tablecopy for my needs), but again I will need to change the path.How can I do this without having to check each component ?ThanksRyan
Hello, I'm in the process of moving a SQL Server 2000 to a new server. I have installed the new server added the latest sp. When I try to restore the system databases (Master, msdb) I get the following error "the database xxxx.bak Cannot be restored because it was created by a different version of the server restore database is terminating abnormally" I have looked at everything that I know of and both servers seem to be running the same versions of everything. Can I just export the databases the the new server? thanks in advance for any help you can give.
I have hundrends of SQL Agent jobs in SQL Server 2005 and I want to move them to another server everyday for DR purpose. I try to restore the msdb to another server but it seems that proxy could not match the credential on that server even the credentials have same name. Any suggestion for me to move jobs each night? Thanks in advance!
