ArcServe Backups Now Show In SQL Restore Window --not Good
Feb 12, 2003
I'm not sure when it started, but...
It seems that very recently, the backups made during a nightly ArcServe tape backup procedure are showing up in the restore window on our SQL server. We don't want that! The application group makes it's own backup's to disk, and we want to see only them in the restore window.
(The tape ackup is a redudnant process, to be used if one of our on-hand disk backups are bad or non-existent, or if the DB needs to be recovered from an older date.)
What made the ArcServe files show up? How can we stop SQL server from thinking tyhat they are part of the backup set we are conccerned with?
Thanks.

I have a windows 8 pc that I just got and installed sqlexpress 2014. My buddy haw windows 7 and installed sqlexpress on his pc. We create a db on his pc, did a backup, copied the backup to my pc. In ssms I right click on "database" > restore database. click device and the button to find my file. I navigate to the folder where the file shows in file explorer but the .bak file does not show in ssms to restore from. This is probably a windows thing but I have don't know what to look at.

When I set up a DailyBackup using the Backup Wizard it doesn't show in the SQL Agent jobs or in the Database maintainance plan. Is this correct??

Hi,
We have development and user acceptance (UA) servers. When I start a job on the development server, on the management studio, Start Jobs window and Job activity windows indicate "Executing" until the end of the job and finish with "success" or "failure"
But on the UA server, second after I start a job, Start Jobs window comes up with "success" or failure" and Job activity monitor says "idle" but Job continues to log without any error message and updates the tables. So these two windows are not reliable at all. I have to add that I have only job operator rights on the UA server.
Does anybody know what the reason is ?
Thanks

Hi everyone,
I have a problem with my MS SQL Server 2000 (SP2). My task is to restore a backup from a database on another computer.
The server makes a backup everyday. If this server gets a hardware problem there must be a chance to replace it by another server which is made by the backup files.
In this scenario I don't have the possibility to copy the whole folder of the old server.
Is it possible to restore the bakup so that the new server looks like the old one?
Thanks for every response.

Our DBs are set up to do a full backup once a day (late at night) and then transaction log backups during the day at shorter intervals.
I want to setup a dev database on the same server. I want this database to be an automatically restored copy of the live database. So every night, after the full backup of the live DB, I want to restore the live DB to this dev DB.
Can this be automated? Can the restore automatically stop the dev database in case some open connections exist?
Is there a better way to do this?

I make two full backups on Oct 1 and Oct 10. I want to restore the server to a state in Oct 5. So I just do as follows:
1.Perform a transaction log backup on the server on Oct 23. I have never backup transaction log in the past.
2. Restore the server with Oct 1 full backup with NORECOVERY option.
3.Try to restore to the point at Oct 5 12:00, with the transaction log.
But the restore fails and SQL Server said the transaction log does not contain the point. The point is too early. Why? Also my .LDF file is about 13G, but the transaction log backup is only 200MB. Why?

So I'm testing some things in our new servers and was trying to restore a database from some striped backup sets. We have 4 files for our backups and restoring the FULL backups with no recovery worked beautifully via SSMS. But when I tried to restore the differentials (also striped across 4 files), the GUI gave me this error:
Unable to create restore plan due to break in the LSN chain.
How to locate when the break happened and I came across this article about how this is an SSMS 2012 bug.
So I tried the advice in this article to attempt a restore via Files and Filegroups, and ended up with the below error:
EDIT: Picture is attached if it is not showing in post.
I was able to restore via T-SQL, but I want to also be able to restore through the GUI.

how to restore database backups with different recovery fork. I have 1-full backup 2-diff backups and 10-tran backups. My prod database in mirror, so after error, switched to mirror with "allow_data_loss" option. And now I have full and diff backup with one recovery fork GUID and other backups with another GUID.So the question is, how to restore all this backups if in middle of restoration will be different recovery fork.Tryed to restore log backups with new fork guid and got error:This backup set cannot be applied because it is on a recovery path that is inconsistent with the database. The recovery path is the sequence of data and log backups that have brought the database to a particular recovery point. Find a compatible backup to restore, or restore the rest of the database to match a recovery point within this backup set, which will restore the database to a different point in time.

We had our backups backing up to the server where the databases reside. Now I modified the backups to backup to a file share. Now when we try to restore from the file share the restore fails, so we have to copy the backup to a drive on the server and recover for there. Should I be able to restore directly from the file share (using the gui)? Do I need to change something else to modify the default backup drive?

I'm working on a restore procedure for the case where all MDF filesare missing, but the LDF files are all intact. A full backup is doneevery 24 hours, and a log backup is done every 3 hours. Afterrestoring the last full + log backups, is it at all possible to usethe LDF files to recover data from that point up to a newer point intime?I've found a post which explains how to do this on SQL Server 2000<http://groups.google.com/group/comp...s.ms-sqlserver/browse_thread/thread/3ef5c7cbc0a83334/f3b0c70811d35ed7>, but step 4fails with the following error message:BACKUP LOG cannot be performed because there is no current databasebackup.

I'm trying to test out a restore scenario for a large database. It contains several files, each one is backed up when we are finished inserting data into it. No changes are made to the data after insert. All changes happen in tables in the primary file group.
So, I backup the primary file, the log, the first "partitioned" file, the log, the next "partitioned" file, the log, etc, etc, etc. Now, I delete one of the tables residing on one of the partitioned files and want to restore it. For arguments sake, let's say I have a primary file, and 5 partitioned files. I delete the table which was on file 3.
I'm having trouble wrapping my head around the steps to restore under these circumstances. I thought I understood it but, apparently not. When I try to restore, I'm told I must first backup the tail of the log. Having done that, I restore file 3, and all subsequent log files. Now, I'm right back where I was (missing the deleted table). When I try to roll back to a point in time before the delete...it claims to be successful but, nothing perceptable is different...??
Can someone help set me straight here?

We currently use CA ArcServe (ArcServe 6.5 Enterprise and Single Server Editions) to backup our Windows NT files and MS-SQL Server databases. We have experienced significant reliability issues with ArcServe. Many times we have found ourselves rebuilding a corrupt ArcServe Job (ArcServe’s backup schedule) database. One of our NT server occasionally NT bug checks when ArcServe is performing backups. Occasionally ArcServe Jobs incorrectly reschedule themselves. Sometimes the Jobs do not complete but stay executing, not performing any work, and to cancel them may require a lot of effort. The ArcServe job DB repair utility generally does not work. The user interface is lacking. For example, the job scheduling options are very limited. CA tech support for this product has been poor. Because we have issues with ArcServe stability we are now evaluating Veritas (formally Seagate) Backup Exec for NT. What are other people’s experiences with these 2 products?

Any thoughts or experiences (good or bad) on using the SQL agents from Arcserve or BackupExec for backups as opposed to standard dumps to disk?
I have always used dumps and taken the position that these tools work well, reliably and do not depend on another device ( tape device) for backups. Also they should be quicker and not cause any problem with table / log concurrency or delays in updates while the backup takes place.
Also, does anyone know how these products actualy maintain concurrency? Has anyone ever used one of these backups as a recovery?
Thanks in advance.

This seems to happen just after our backups run. the result is that the SQL Server
Enterprise Manager can be brought up the next day but nothing can be accessed or
inquired of. The service is still running, the server is still up and rebooting the server
resolves the problem.
98/08/06 20:32:31.68 kernel dpdb_asyncread: mirror: Operating system error 6
(The handle is invalid.) encountered
Is anybody else using Arcserve Backup Agent for SQL Server for Windows NT, RAID 5?
Have you seen this? I`ve been to MS home page and on technet. No mention of this
problem. Next stop is Arcserve home page, if they have one. I have read the error logs
and this is the second time this has happened this week. Both times since we added
Arcserve to manage our MS SQL Server Database backups.
Best Regards and Thanks for your time.

Dear members,
In MSDN, it says that it is recommended to use windows authentication to connect to SQL Server rather than use mixed authentication.
I create user deltasqluser on windows OS, and I specify in my webform ASP.NET script below :
protected System.Web.UI.WebControls.Label Label1;
private string _connString = @"data source=deltasql2000;initial catalog=northwind;integrated security=false;user id=deltasqluser";
/*
comment : I login to my windows as deltakoronx, and I want to every user (including me), connected to sql server through IIS, will be identified as deltasqluser not as user's login (impersonate)
*/
private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(_connString);
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand();
cmd.Connection = conn;
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
cmd.CommandText = "select suser_sname()";
conn.Open();
string userName = cmd.ExecuteScalar() as string;
conn.Close();
conn.Close();
Label1.Text = userName;
}
at web.config, I add :
<identity impersonate="false" userName="deltasqluser" password="" />
at IIS webApplication1's properties, tab "Directory Security", at "Authentication and access control" section, I checked "enable anonymous access" with user : DELTAIUSR_DELTA and checked "Integrated Windows Authentication",
at query analyzer, I login as "sa" and execute script below :
exec sp_grantdbaccess 'deltasqluser','northwind'
when I run the ASP.NET script, error at conn.Open(); with error message :
Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE'.
What should I do so that IIS login to SQL Server as user deltasqluser not as "NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE" ?
Regards,
Koronx

The space allocated to the Log in question is 180 GB. During this time period I was running TLog backups every 5 minutes, yet the log continued to chew through to 80 GB used, even after the process was complete and a final TLog backup had been taken. It continued to stay very large until the Full backup was complete -- or something else that I'm unaware of completed. Like every other DBA I typically take a TLog backup to shrink the log, but what appeared to be the case here was the Full completed and it released the used log space. All said, will Transaction Log backups not free up the log during Full backups?

I am looking for a SQL Backup/Restore tools which can restore multiple environments. Here is high level requirements.
1. We have 4 DBs, range from 1 TB - 1.5 TB Each Database. When we restore to QA, DEV, or Staging, we usually restore 4 of them.
2. I am looking for the speed to complete restoring between 1 - 2 hours for 4 DBs.
I am evaluating the Dephix Software but the setup is very complex and its given us a lot of issues with Windows Authentions, and failure in the middle of the backup. I used Guess Software many years ago but can't find it on the web site any more. Speed is very important for us mean complete restoring as fast as possible. We are on SQL 2012 and SQL 2008 R2.We are currently using NETAPP Technology and I have Redgate Backup Tool but I am mainly looking for fast Restore Process.

made my first web application using vb script. I am trying to use window authentication for my web page and try to give all permission based on window domain user account. Here is the connecting string I was using to connect to the sql server and it was working fine.
Protected Const sql_connection_string As String = _
"workstation id= DATA-02;" & _
"packet size=4096;" & _
"user id=ASP;" & _
"password=ASP;" & _
"data source=ARENS-DATA-01;" & _
"persist security info=True;" & _
"initial catalog=SupplierTrack;"
I made couple of changes so it run on based on window domain user.
1) my server is set on window and sql server
2) Web.config file – I set Authentication mode = “ Window�
3) I also added under set <authorization>
<deny users="?" />
</authorization>
4) change the connecting string to : ( Added "Integrated Security=True;" and removed line for user and password)
Protected Const sql_connection_string As String = _
"workstation id= DATA-02;" & _
"packet size=4096;" & _
"Integrated Security=True;" & _
"data source=ARENS-DATA-01;" & _
"persist security info=True;" & _
"initial catalog=SupplierTrack;"
5) run the application and now I am getting error said “Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.�
I was expecting window pop up log in to enter domain user and password and then verity the user and password against sql server and the take it from there. Where I made mistake. Need help.
