Backup/Restore Stored Procedure
Oct 5, 2006
Hi there
I just want to create Stored Procedure which will do following thing
i) Create a text file, which will have a Schema Script(including all the constraint & others, for a database(by passing Parameter)
ii) the same file must also have, all the data from the selected database tables,in again plain text format (could be CSV, or Tab SV, etc...)
I mean to say, the file should be act as the full backup of database, in plain text.
The same need to be done in the reverse order,this SP will do following things
i)Open the file created by first SP, create new database, with same name as backup in SP one
ii) create the tables, by reading the Schema script.
iii) Insert all the data in corrsponding tables.
For EX:
--creating backup
sp_CreateDatbaseBackup('DatabaseName')
--Restoring
sp_RestoreDatabaseBackup('FileName')
I know abou the Backup & restore in SQL Server 2005, but they gives me backup as .bkp file which is not editable. I too cant use the SSIS(just only SPs)
I want an editable full Backup and Restore.
Please help me in creating these SPs or any other idea, solution ?
OR
any other FREE third party tool which will make the Full database backup & restore in one go & in plain text file.
Regards,
Thanks.

I'm not new to SQL at all, but I'm completely new to backup/restore TSQL.I have the following script, which backs up 2 databases and restores them under different database names.the script runs fine as-is, but I cannot seem to package it within a create stored procedure statement.if I attempt to wrap create procedure <name> AS begin....end around it, the statement simply executes.
--backup LGTY_QA_01, restore to LGTY_DV_01
BACKUP DATABASE LGTY_QA_01
TO DISK = 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL10_50.MSSQLSERVERMSSQLBackupLGTY_QA_01.bak'
WITH FORMAT, CHECKSUM
GO
ALTER DATABASE LGTY_DV_01 SET SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE
GO
[code]...

I have 5 databases that the user will chose which ones to restore. I was thinking the variable with the 5 database names separated by commas. I was thinking about using the CONTAIN function but two of the databases have the same name except for a few letters at the end.

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.

Hello,
I created a test stored procedure in MS SQL 2000. When the problem in my app was fixed, I deleted this test stored procedure. But the backup job thinks this procedure still exist and so backup job would failed. How can I fix this problem?
Thank in advance for your assistance.

I should restore a SQL Server 2005 Database from backup. The backup contains three files, named user.bak0, user.bak1 and user.bak2.
How is the syntax of the restore filelistonly and the restore database ... ?
I usualy write
restore filelistonly from disk = 'path and filenam.bak'
restore database. zy
from disk = 'path and filename.bak'
with replace,
move.....
move....
This works but I cannot use it with a splitted backup file. The files are much too big to put together to one file.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Have a server running 14 production databases, 12 of which are replicated (transactional replication) to a second server for reporting. Distributor on same machine as publishers. All set to 'SyncWithBackup' = true, distribution set to Full recovery mode, log backups every 30 minutes, full backup nightly. This generally runs just fine.
Occasionally, the process 'hangs' indefinitely (has gone 12 hours or more before being caught) and I need to stop the backup job, stop one or more of the log reader agents, and restart everything, and it proceeds just fine. Annoying, but not fatal, and not very often.
This time, no matter what, the backup job hangs when it runs. This is true whether it is the FULL backup or just a Transaction Log backup. It hangs on the stored procedure sp_msrepl_backup_start, at the point where it is attempting to update the table 'MSrepl_backup_lsns'. When it is hung like this, all of the log reader agent jobs are also hung, blocked by this stored proc. I've tried stopping ALL of the log reader agents prior to starting the backup, but the backup process still hangs up at the same spot and never ends.
I can run the select statement in that SP that gathers the data for the databases 'manually' in a query window and it finishes in about 10 seconds. It actually seems to be hung up on the 'UPDATE' statement. When it is hung, I cannot SELECT from MSrepl_backup_lsns unless I append WITH (NOLOCK) to the statement. Nothing else I can find indicates that there is anything else locking that table. DBCC OPENTRAN shows that there is a lock on that table held by that stored proc -- but I can't see any reason why it won't update the table (17 total records) and move on.
As I said, normally this runs just fine. Totally baffled by what may be causing this at this time.

I get the following error in a log file created in the osql command:
Msg 3201, Level 16, State 1, Server KAC2KGS2, Procedure usp_Kaman_Full_SqlDB_Backup, Line 150
Cannot open backup device 'x:Servername_master_sqlbu_200703101930.bkf'.
Device error or device off-line. See the SQL Server error log for more
details.
Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Server KAC2KGS2, Procedure usp_Kaman_Full_SqlDB_Backup, Line 150
BACKUP DATABASE is terminating abnormally.
The device is established in a CMD file right before the osql command is started that starts my stored procedure. The CMD in this file is:
for /f "tokens=15 delims=." %%i in ('ipconfig^|find "IP Address"^|find "192.168"') do set SUBNET=%%i
:loop
if exist x: net use x: /del
net use x: \192.168.%SUBNET%.1ackup
if not ERRORLEVEL 1 (
goto continue
) else (
echo FAILED TO CONNECT TO BACKUP SERVER >> "%SystemDrive%LogFiles\%Computername%.log"
sleep 60
goto loop
)
:continue
echo IP ADDRESS OBTAINED
Echo delete old log file if it exists
if exist %3\%computername%_kaman_full_sqldb_backup_old.log del /Q %3\%computername%_kaman_full_sqldb_backup_old.log
Echo Rename log file to old.log
rename %3\%computername%_kaman_full_sqldb_backup.log %computername%_kaman_full_sqldb_backup_old.log
echo backup SQL Databases on server will start now
osql -E -n -d %1 -i %2kaman_full_sqldb_backup.sql -h-1 -o %3\%Computername%_kaman_full_sqldb_backup.log
In the stored procedure I try to use the x: drive and that does not work. I have tried obtaining the \192.168.x.x address and that only works on some of my servers. All are running SQL 2000, some are using Win2K and Win2003. It does not seem to matter. One of them that is using Win2003 only fails occationally.
I notice when I do a
exec master..xp_cmdshell 'x:'
The system cannot find the drive specified.
Yet, when I go to the server there is an x drive.
I am using the sqlserv user to run the job and that use is an administrator on the local machine. This is a virtual machine. We add the X before the osql and drop it after the command finishes.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, dbmsql

I neglected to backup the transaction log as part of the process of backing up the database. Now i only have the backup file for the database and no transaction log backup. When i try to do a restore on the database, i get the error on a "tail log missing" message (which i'm assuming is that it's looking for the t-log backup?).
Is it possible to restore or even restore to a new database? I'm only looking to retreive data from 2 tables within the backup file.
Thanks!
SQL Server 2005 on Windows 2003 Server x64.

Hi all - I'm trying to optimized my stored procedures to be a bit easier to maintain, and am sure this is possible, not am very unclear on the syntax to doing this correctly. For example, I have a simple stored procedure that takes a string as a parameter, and returns its resolved index that corresponds to a record in my database. ie
exec dbo.DeriveStatusID 'Created'
returns an int value as 1
(performed by "SELECT statusID FROM statusList WHERE statusName= 'Created')
but I also have a second stored procedure that needs to make reference to this procedure first, in order to resolve an id - ie:
exec dbo.AddProduct_Insert 'widget1'
which currently performs:SET @statusID = (SELECT statusID FROM statusList WHERE statusName='Created')INSERT INTO Products (productname, statusID) VALUES (''widget1', @statusID)
I want to simply the insert to perform (in one sproc):
SET @statusID = EXEC deriveStatusID ('Created')INSERT INTO Products (productname, statusID) VALUES (''widget1', @statusID)
This works fine if I call this stored procedure in code first, then pass it to the second stored procedure, but NOT if it is reference in the second stored procedure directly (I end up with an empty value for @statusID in this example).
My actual "Insert" stored procedures are far more complicated, but I am working towards lightening the business logic in my application ( it shouldn't have to pre-vet the data prior to executing a valid insert).
Hopefully this makes some sense - it doesn't seem right to me that this is impossible, and am fairly sure I'm just missing some simple syntax - can anyone assist?

I had to replace my hard drive which was going bad. I reinstalled Sql 2005 and now need to restore the backup that I have. I selected Restore Database and chose From Device, and selected the backup location on J: drive and selected the backup file which has no extenstion. I checked the checkbox next to the backup set to restore. Click OK and then I get this error message:
Restore failed for Server
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: Directory lookup for the file "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLdataMyDB_Data.MDF" failed with the operating system error 3(The system cannot find the path specified.). (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
I don't know why it is looking for a MDF file as this was never in the Backup folder. Can someone please help me on this? I thought I was doing the right thing making a backup all along and now I can't restore it!

Hi I am operating my databases under "trunc log on checkpoint" mode as I do not need point of failure recoverability.I was performing a recovery test using a backup which resulted in it being unsuccessful .Error Message received was
"Recovery has failed because a nonlogged operation could not be redone.Use the RESTORE statement to restore all data in filegroup PRIMARY to a pt beyond the nonlogged changes"
Isnt sql*server supposed to prevent a non-logged operation while a backup is in progress?Also how do i prevent such a situation from recurring.
If i switch to single user mode before a backup how do i prevent exisiting users from accessing ... without bouncing my sql*server?

Can some one guide me to take a backup as well as restore on the remoteserver with syntax and what does it mean to add a device...i could not understand.
Is there any other process that's much faster to implement.

Whenever I restore a backup on sqlserver 7.0 and create a new database from it, I always end up having problems with the users existing in the backup.
To enable those users to have access, I end up creating logins with those names and when I try granting those users Database access, I get the error message that the user already exists in the database.
Could some one tell me the right way to restore the backup and having all the users of the database also restored in the proper manner.

Now, we need the SMS server back again. We installed the NT server, SMS server snd SQL server on that machine. The problem is, we now want the SQL server to recognize our SMS database (SMS.db file).
