Back Up Problems Continued - Reply To Alex And Ray
Mar 21, 2002
Thanks for the replies but...
I doesn't work!!!!
Anymore ideas?
---------------------------------------------
Hi,
I have a rather odd problem that hopefully you'll be able to shed some light on (nobody else has come up with anythig sensible).
We want to back up the databases to a hard drive held on another server so I mapped the drive in explorer to the drive then went into Enterprise manager and tried to create a backup device and it won't see the mapped drive.
I've tried mapping to my PC and I can see that via enterprise managers backup stuff (infact any PC in the office works) but it won't see any of the servers even though we can map to them and access them via windows explorer.
I've tried when logged on via sa and the windows NT administrator and still no luck. In fact no matter what I type or do it fails and keeps telling me device error or device off line which it isn't.
On our test instance of SQL Sever we can backup to other servers but not the new live version!
Extremely thanks for the reply . I am using transactional replication for the database . I will try with snapshot replication as you suggested .
You mentioned that it will work with Transactional replication only if the application uses the option ' with log ' for those transactions .
Can you let me know where can i set this option for transaction replication ? I am sorry but i am not well versed with database replication procedures and management .
I have a .NET application that needs to work with about 5,000,000 XML files5Kb each. Mostly the application randomly reads these files and itadds/modifies about 100 files every 10 minutes. What would be the best datastorage in tirms of performance (connection, search and retrieval times) abig SQL table that uses NTEXT to store XML or regular NTFS file system (500folders with 10,000 files each)? How big the difference will be?--Message posted via SQLMonster.comhttp://www.sqlmonster.com/Uwe/Forum...eneral/200511/1
Thanks for previous help, I am however continuing to have problems as I attempt to search a table for a value keyed by the user (e.g. AccessionPresent= 3624-01). The input value that is being searched against is stored in the table as an INT. I have cast the INT to a VARCHAR on the line described as "MSQL=.... Can anyone ascertain why I get the error, described below? The query works in the Query Analyzer?? What am I doing incorrectly... Any assistance will be appreciated... Thanks !

I continue to have issues with SP-2 for SQL 2005 suite. It has now gotten so bad, I have multiple installations, including the TOOLS ONLY on my laptop failing, that I am going to stop ALL future installations of SP-2. The COM+ failures have not been resolved that I can determine. I have tried uninstalling, I have tried SP-1 before SP-2, every combination one can find. HELP.

I have one report (R1) which includes a list of ports ("=Fields!Port_Name.Value")
Another report (R2) supplies details for individual reports and has a parameter named PortDWIDPortName which gets port names from the same dimension as those in R1. So in the field properties of the Port field in R1, I selected Navigation > Jump To Report and entered PortDWIDPortName = Fields!Port_Name.Value (also tried changing .Value to .Key or .UniqueName) but although it jumps to report R2 it does not enter a value for the parameter (ie leaves it blank or displays <Select Value> depending on whether multivalue or not).
Does anyone know the right syntax to pass the parameter ? If not, does anyone know to view what Jump To Parameter is returning so I can figure how to doctor it!
We currently have access to another department's SQL server. However they are taking that server offline within a few months, and we will need to migrate our data and DTS packages to a new solution before then. We have about 30 databases and 20 somewhat simple DTS packages, but only a few users need access. Funding is very tight.
SQL 2005's support of DTS is somewhat of a mystery to me. Docs state with 2000 Enterprise client tools installed + Express edition, that I can run DTS packages on Express edition. But the docs do not state the procedure for doing so, and I cannot register the Express server in the Enterprise manager(states must be using 2005 version of Enterprise manager). It seems I can Design a DTS package that resides on the 2000 server and specify a connection to the Express server, but the DTS package would not run, stating always that the table was in use, and I haven't explored it any further. May have just been a quirk.
I'm trying to conquer this in two pieces:
Cheapest solution for graphical design of DTS packages, or some techniology similar(I think I understand that this is called SSIS in 2005?). This would be needed by 1-4 users.
SQL 2005 Developer Edition for each user, only about $50 per user. MSDE for each user, but can this house DTS packages and be connected to by enterprise manager? Cheapest solution for data access and ability to run DTS packages by 2-10 users.
If SQL Express Edition is used to house data, can the DTS packages be distributed in some way that allows the users to run them? I.E. exported as VB code or some sort of file that can be loaded by an Access 2002 or VB.NET frontend. Can all users have Developer Edition or Desktop edition and run the DTS package from it, but have the DTS package connect to the Express Edition server where the data is housed? Or would this be a violation of what the Developer Edition is intended to be used for? Any other suggested scenarios are welcome.
Are we allowed to continue using the 2000 Enterprise manager after we no longer have access to a licensed SQL 2000 Enterprise server?
The feature comparison for the different 2005 editions doesn't mention DTS, but I know it works for some editions if the add on components are installed. I'm just not sure which versions support this.
in sql server 2000 ,in query analyzer :for example i have a emp table ,when i execute a query ,i have to get the emp table column names with its data types...for example :empno ---intempname -- varchar like this...what is the query to get the output like this
I am not using the SA account when I log in using windows authentication it seems to pick up my domain and active directory ID which is "usapp1dxd" it appears greyed out as well as the password on the login screen so you can't change it.
If you go into the management studio and right click on the server name in the left hand pane go to properties security the radio button for sql server and Windows authentication mode is selected.
Hello,I'm trying to create a simple back up in the SQL Maintenance Plan that willmake a single back up copy of all database every night at 10 pm. I'd likethe previous nights file to be overwritten, so there will be only a singleback up file for each database (tape back up runs every night, so each daysback up will be saved on tape).Every night the maintenance plan makes a back up of all the databases to anew file with a datetime stamp, meaning the previous nights file stillexists. Even when I check "Remove files older than 22 hours" the previousnights file still exists. Is there any way to create a back up file withoutthe date time stamp so it overwrites the previous nights file?Thanks!Rick
New to Database Mirroring and I have a question about the Principal database server. I have a Database Mirroring setup configured for High-safety with automatic fail over mode using a witness.
When a fail over occurs because of a lost of communication between the principal and mirror, the mirror server takes on the roll of Principal. When communication is returned to the Principal server, at some point does the database that was the previous Principal database automatically go back to being the Principal server?
I need to run two reports each of A5 Size to run back to page and print on single A4 paper means in 1st half Sale bill will be printed and in second half Gate Pass Will Be Printed both report will be on same page and size and shape should be maintained. How to do it.
For the begining thank for your reply. I started with a new job and I was hopeless when all normaly claimed things can't be done. I asked a lot of peoples who works on MSSQL(including SWYNK) for my problems(I know that I'm beginer on MSSQL) but they didn't knows any solution. And afterall I wrote that. For your ilustration, we develope information system for Invest company. Back is on MSSQL and client is in ASP.

--No named cursors I mean that in general is using curosr names bootless. And you must deal with names... In interbase: DECLARE var1,2 INTEGER; FOR SELECT column,column2 FROM TABLE WHERE ... INTO :var1,:var2 BEGIN some code in loop; END
In mssql: DECLARE .. DECLARE crs CURSOR FOR SELECT ...

-"cursor threshold" resolves it only in single select's and procedures with only one select's -It's unacceptable when your your user runs large queries

-Books are very feeble:( -but I thing that it can't work with EXCEPTION blocs. Good Exception handling is important tool for fast developing of robust apps
-I used example(s) from INTERBASE because I worked more on it, but in Oracle it's alike.
For a query like below ... How do i have to select only the latest revisions, if i need to filter last current revisions of each document ... where the revision could be either alphabetical or even numerical ...
Presently I get all revisions with the below query ... Note: csd_revi is the field of CSD table for revisions.
I've gotten everything to work -- almost! Here's the scoop... I'm using SQL Server 7.0 and ColdFusion (you don't need to know anything about ColdFusion). I'm trying to get SQL Server to publish/share/etc. a database with the network so ColdFusion (our website management/creation program) can access it and use it in a webpage. Well, so far, ColdFusion can detect and access the database (called "iami"), but it cannot find any tables in the database (particularily one called "phase1"). Can anyone help me -- the sooner the better -- ???
If you reply before 4pm today and offer truly helpful advice/input, I'll send you a reward/incentive from me personally (just give me your mailing address) just for helping out!!! :-)
Can anyone help me with handy scripts/stored procedures to capture blocking info on the server? We have SQL 7.0 w/sp3. Ray replied earlier saying that I can use so_who2!!, I think everyone knows that,please reply with some valuable info!!Please.. Thanks. Sonali.
I think jthis is a bug. I have a table created and populated on its own filegroup. I backup the db(all filegroups) and the trans log then I drop the one table. When I try to restore from my backups, it insists that I back up the trans log again. I do, then do the restore of both the filegroup and the trans log. The restore finishes, but my table is still not there and I can never get it back.
What should I have done? Is there anything that can be done other than restoring from backup? How does one know if the database is really recovering or is EM just joken? I can wait 2 hours before starting the restore
I was BCPing 12 million rows into a staging table. II used the '-b' option every 20K which I thought would do a commit and clear the log in batches. After the process EM appeared to show the transaction log as empty. Upon inspecting the Bcp output file I discovered the message that the BCP did not complete because syslogs was full. I could not do a truncate transaction log or a dump database. I tried to do a truncate transaction with no_log and it appeared to just hang. I stopped the SQL Server thinking I could dump the transaction log, but could not start the Sql Server again. I then stopped the NT Server because 'if all else fails'. The SQL Server started but the user database if marked as recovering.
Hi everyone I want to know if it's possible to do a for/while-loop so i can use INSERT
Look: I've this int [] test = new test[140]; But i need to insert for every value (140) a number so normally it would be : INSERT ... (case1, case2, case3 ...) value (test[1],test[2],test[3] ...) But isn't there a way to it with a loop? SOmething Like this ?
for( int i = 0 , i< 140, i++) { INSERT case[i] value test[i] }

I have set up a data driven subscription for a report, and against "Reply-To" I have selected "Specify a Static Value". I have then I have entered a valid email address.
When the report is received however, and the recipient clicks reply, the reply address is filled in as the Email Address from which the report was sent.
Is this a bug with the "Reply-To" functionality? Or do I have to do this a different way?
Is there a way to do this? When I have a further question in the same thread, my only option is to reply to the one who answered the last question. How do I put forward that question to everyone? Do I have to start a new thread with the same subject?
Hello,I am hoping you can help me with the following problem; I need to process the following steps every couple of hours in order to keep our Sql 2000 database a small as possible (the transaction log is 5x bigger than the db).1.back-up the entire database2.truncate the log3.shrink the log4.back-up once again.As you may have determined, I am relatively new to managing a sql server database and while I have found multiple articles online about the topics I need to accomplish, I cannot find any actual examples that explain where I input the coded used to accomplish the above-mentioned steps. I do understand the theory behind the steps I just do not know how to accomplish them!If you know of a well-documented tutorial, please point me in the right direction.Regards.
I'm trying to import data into an SQL Server (7.0) and I'm wondering which Source (Microsoft Data Link, Microsoft ODBC Driver for Oracle, Microsoft ODBC Driver for SQL Server, etc.) -- I THINK we would use the SQL Server driver but I'm not sure... to use AND WHERE TO GO FROM THERE? So far, I get seem to get things to work in my favor. I appreciate any help :) The data I'm trying to import is from Microsoft Excell. If there is anything else you need to know, please email me at iami@iami.org Please provide email/forum-based technical support.
