Regular Backup Co-exist With Log-shipping (or SQL Mirroring)
May 14, 2007Suppose I have a 3rd party SQL backup software to backup my databases, can I also setup a stand-by server for log shipping?
I'm not sure if this is possible? If not, is SQL mirroring a choice instead of log shipping?
Thanks a lot!

DTS Packages Backup ?
Apr 28, 2004Hi,
On our dev machine there are some DTS packages in the DataTransformationServicesLocalPackages. Our dev machine & DB is backed up every day (.bak file and backup of data files)
We had a crash and had to restore the DB's, now all DTS packages are gone !
We're are they saved ? Can I get them back somehow ?
Getting DTS Packages Back From A Backup?
Feb 13, 2004Does anyone know how to get a DTS package back into the EM's Local Packages from a disk backup?
In other words, inside Package Designer, it is possible to save a package to disk as a .dts file.
But, if the package has been removed from the EM Local Packages, I don't see any way to get the package imported back in from the backup file on disk.
The import/export wizard seems to be for moving a package from one database to another. I don't see anything that stands out as a way to read a 'flat' file from disk.
Anyone know how this is done? (I assume it can be done, else, why provide a way to save a package out to disk in the first place?)
Thanks much.

Backup All Databases(SQL And AS) And SSIS Packages
Jun 11, 2007Hi All,
I have a requirement of migrating all databases from one server to another. I need to backup all SQL Server 2005 databases (both SQL and AS) with the exact replica copy. Also I need to migrate all the SSIS packages. Unfortunately I am not a Database/System Admin.
Is there any Script/Tool/Wizard Functionality that would help me doing this? I would be happy, even if you can help me reducing the parts of manual work in anyway you can think of, so please pour you thoughts in.
Thanking in Anticipation,

Copy/Backup/Migrate SSIS Packages From 1 Server To Another
Nov 21, 2007
I'm looking for a way to copy/migrate all of my SSIS packages from 1 SQL2005 server to another SQL2005 server. I see export/import options but they are for 2000 DTS packages. And it seems like I can only do this one package at a time, which is tedious. Anybody out there who's done all packages at once?
Thanks!

SQL To Search Exist Or Not Exist Data
Nov 24, 2005Hello all,
I have a branch a data, now i need to search through a database to check whther it is exist in that database or not, any syggestion?
Example:
Now i have data 123, 234, 345. Let say data 123 and 234 is exist in that database, but data 345 is not exist in that database.
What SQL am i suitable to use to get those result exist(123, 234) and those result not exist (345)?
The database structure is someting like this:
ID NAME O_NAME
-- ----- --------
1 120 123
2 234 234
3 345 345
1) The data consider 'exist' if it exist in column NAME or column O_NAME (either one).
2) The data consider 'not exist' if it not exist in neither NAME column nor O_NAME column
After the SQL query, someting is expected:
Exist:
ID NAME O_NAME
-- ----- --------
1 120 123
2 234 234
Not Exist:
ID NAME O_NAME
-- ----- --------
3 345 345
I'll appreciate if anyone can provide me a solution..Thanks!
Calling SSIS Packages From ASP.NET - Packages With File System Tasks End Abruptly
Jan 9, 2007I've run into a problem with SSIS packages wherein tasks that write or copy files, or create or delete directories, quit execution without any hint of an error nor a failure message, when called from an ASP.NET 2.0 application running on any other machine than the one where the package was created from. By all indications it appeared to be an identity/permissions problem.
Our application involves a separate web server and database server. Both have SQL Server 2005 installed, but the application server originally only had Integration services. The packages are file system-deployed on the application server, and are called using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime methods. For all packages that involve file system tasks, the above problem occurs.
When the above packages are run using the command prompt (either DTEXEC or DTEXECUI) the packages execute just fine. This is expected since we are using an administrative account. However when a ShellExecute of the same command is called from ASP.NET, the same problem occurs.
I've tried giving administrative permissions to the ASPNET worker process user to no avail.
I have likewise attempted to use the SQL Server Agent job approach but that approach might not be acceptable for our clients since it means installing SQL Server 2005 Database services on the application server.
I have read the relevant threads in this forum, namely http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1044739&SiteID=1 and http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=927084&SiteID=1 but failed to find any solution appropriate for our set up.
Anybody got any idea on how to go about this?
Integration Services :: Remotely Execute Packages On SSIS Server - Packages Are Deployed In File System
Apr 22, 2015We manage some SSIS servers, which has only SSIS and SSIS tools installed on them and not the sql server DB.
SSIS packages and configuration files are deployed on a NAS. We run the SSIS packages through DTEXEC by logging in to the server.
We want to allow developers to run their packages on their own on the server, but at the same time we dont want to give them physical access on the server i.e we do not want to add them into RDP users list on server properties. We want them to allow running their packages remotely on the server.
One way We could think of is by using powershell remoting and we are working on that. But is there any other way or any tool already present for the same.
Upgrading System To Run DTSX Packages Instead Of DTS Packages
Aug 2, 2006Hi all
Our data management system currently runs DTS packages using DTSPKG.dll.
I am currently looking at the possibliity of replacing the DTS packages and SQL 2000 with DTSX packages using SSIS in SQL 2005.
Do I need a new dll? or will the current dtspkg.dll handle the new DTSX packages?
Many thanks in advance!
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
SQL 2012 :: Error (backup Failed To Complete The Command BACKUP LOG) In Event Viewer
Aug 23, 2013On the SQL Server the Event Viewer shows the same messages and errors every evening between 22:05:00 and 22:08:00. The following information messages are shown for every database:
"I/O is frozen on database <database name>. No user action is required. However, if I/O is not resumed promptly, you could cancel the backup."
"I/O was resumed on database <database name>. No user action is required."
"Database backed up. Database: <database name>, creation date(time): 2003/04/08(09:13:36), pages dumped: 306, first LSN: 44:148:37, last LSN: 44:165:1, number of dump devices: 1, device information: (FILE=1, TYPE=VIRTUAL_DEVICE: {'{A79410F7-4AC5-47CE-9E9B-F91660F1072B}4'}). This is an informational message only. No user action is required."
After the 3 messages the following error message is shown for every database:
"BACKUP failed to complete the command BACKUP LOG <database name>. Check the backup application log for detailed messages."
I have added a Maintenance Plan but these jobs run after 02:00:00 at night.
Where can I find the command or setup which will backup all databases and log files at 22:00:00 in the evening?
SQL Server 2008 :: Backup Running Long And Backup Threads Show Suspended
Feb 18, 2015SQL Server 2008 r2 - 6 GB memory...I attempted a backup on a 500GB database but it was taking way too long. I checked the resources on the box and saw the CPU at 100%. I checked the SQL Server activity log and saw a hung query (user was not even logged on) that had multiple threads so I killed it and now the CPU utilization is back to normal.
Trouble is, now all of the threads in the activity monitor for the backup show 'suspended' and the backup appears to be not doing anything.
Backup Failed (Error 3041) While Try To Issue A BACKUP Statement In Local

SQL 2012 :: Backup Cleanup Of Differential And Log Backups Based On Full Backup?

Can Windows 2003 Server Backup Utility Be Used To Backup A SQL 2000 Dbase
Dec 28, 2007Windows 2003 backup utility uses the shadow copy option that allows it to copy open files.
Therefore, can I use this utility to backup the .mdf and .ldf files for my SQL 2000 database?
I can then attach the .mdf files if I need to restore the database to another server.
Can anyone tell me if this is safe? I've tried it and it worked but I'm worried there maybe some lurking danger in using this approach.
SQL Security :: Full Backup Needed After Restoration Of Database Before Transaction Log Backup
Jul 15, 2015We take a full backup in the early morning and hourly transaction log back during the working hours for one database in the production server. The application team made certain changes to the design of the said database in their development server. The backup from the development server was restored to the production server during working hours. After the restoration should we take a full backup before next transactional logbackup? Would the transactional log backup with out a full backup after the restoration of a database be valid?

Recovery :: Differential Backup Much Larger Than Database / Full Backup
Nov 16, 2015I have a database that is just over 1.5GB and the Full backup that is 13GB not sure how this is since we have compression on for full backups and my other full backups are much smaller than there respective databases...Now my full backup is taken every Sunday night and the differentials are taken every 6 hours after the full backup. Now I have been thrown into this DBA role with little to no experience just what I have picked up and read. So my understanding of backups are limited but what I think I understand is that we take a full backup and the differential only captures what changes in the database so my question is why is my database 1.5GB but my differential is 15.4GB? I have others database that are on the same instance and don't seem to have this problem. I also just noticed that we do not rebuild the index before a full backup like we do on other instances...

May 10, 2001This is probably a simple question but I have to ask it anyway. When backing up I can backup to a file on my local drive but I also can create a device to the same location on my local drive. Is this doing the same thing. If I so desire to backup to the local drive(bear with me) what is the difference between creating a device and a file called mybackup or just choosing to backup to a file called mybackup? Should I always create a device? I know these are dumb question but....

How To Get The Backup History Details From A Backup Device?URGENT!!

Does A Full Backup Include Data Changes Made During The Backup?
Nov 29, 2007If my backup starts at 8PM and take 1 hour to complete, will the changes made to the database during that hour be captured in the full backup?
Stated another way, will my backup be a snapshot of:
a) 8PM when the backup started
b) 8PM with some of the changes made between the hour
c) 9PM when the backup finished?
Anybody know the exact way SQL Server handles that logic?
Thanks,
Marc
Differential Backup Fails Because Of Erroneous Full Backup
Jul 19, 2007Hi
I am using the Simple recovery model and I'm taking a weekly full backup each Monday morning with differentials taken every 4 hours during the day.
On Wednesday afternoon, a programmer ran a process that corrupted the db and I had to restore to the most recent differential. It was 5pm in the afternoon and a differential backup had just occured at 4pm. No problem, I figured.
I restored the full backup from Monday morning and tried to restore the most recent differential backup. The differential restore failed. Since I had used T-SQL for the initial attempt, I tried using Enterprise Manager to try again.
When viewing the backup history, I see my initial full backup taken on Monday plus all the differentials. BUT, on closer inspection, I noticed another full backup in the backup history that was taken early Tuesday morning. I can't figure out where this Tuesday morning full backup came from. It wasn't taken by me (or scheduled by me) and I'm the only one with access to the server. My full backups are usually named something like HCMPRP_20070718_FULL.bak. This erroneous full backup was named something like HCMPRP_03a_361adk2k_dd53.bak. It seemed like it was a system generated name. Not something I would choose. To top it off, I could not find this backup file anywhere on the server and when I tried to restore using this full backup, it failed.
Does anyone have any clues as to where this full backup might come from? Does SQL Server trigger a full backup on its own if some threshold is reached?
I ended up having to restore using the differential taken just before this erroneous full backup and lost a day of transactions.
Any insight is greatly appreciated.

View 1 Replies View RelatedHow Can I Trigger Full Backup On Tran Log Backup Error?
Aug 8, 2007Hello,
I have MS SQL 2005 server with 300+ databases on it. The application is set up that way that it creates a new database as needed (dynamically). Do not ask me why - I hate this design... So, it can create 3-4 databases a day (random time).
I've scheduled full backup of all databases to run once at night, and it runs just fine. Besides that, I have scheduled tran logs backup of all databases to run every hour. This backup fails from time to time with the following error:
Executing the query "BACKUP LOG [survey_p0886464_test] TO DISK = N'D:\backups\log backups\survey_p0886464_test_backup_200708072300.trn' WITH NOFORMAT, NOINIT, NAME = N'survey_p0886464_test_backup_20070807230002', SKIP, REWIND, NOUNLOAD, STATS = 10
" failed with the following error: "BACKUP LOG cannot be performed because there is no current database backup.
BACKUP LOG is terminating abnormally.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
So, I think what happens is since my full backup of all databases are scheduled to run only once at night, and tran logs every hour, when new database is created during the day, there is no full backup for it, that is why tran logs backup fails. Becuase after the failure, if I run full backup again, then tran log runs just fine afterwards.
I am new to MS SQL Server, I am mostly working with Sybase IQ. Do you know if I can "trigger" full backup every time when new database created to avoid tran lof failure?
Or is it possible to schedule full backup to run if tran log backup fails?
Any advice will be much appreciated.
