Backup But Only Restore Specific Tables
Sep 29, 2014In SQL 2008, there is a way to backup a database, but specify the tables backed up, and, during the restore on the destination server, restore only those tables in the database?

View 2 RepliesHi all,
does anyone know of a way in which you can backup and restore objects that belong to a specific schema?
So in this example, I€™d want to only back up and be able to restore the tables that belong to schema 1, leaving Schema2 stuff alone.
--DB
----Schema1.Table1
----Schema1.Table2
----Schema2.Table1
----Schema2.Table2
Thanks in advance,
Andy.
EDIT: I forgot to add that I want to backup the tables and the data contained within.
I'm having difficulty searching for an answer to this challenge. Cansomeone give me a clue on the right keywords to use to find adiscussion on this subject? All of the ones I saw appear to touch onolder versions. I'm working with SQL Server 2000, and need to backupand restore only tables, because the full backup/restore appears tomess up users/security, or something or another.Thanks for the assist.

I made a backup from the master, model and msdb system tables. Now I travelled to a different country, and I only have the backups and would like to access them. I was able to restore the master db to a new installation of mssql but, it wont start. I do know why: as I read after I quickly realised that master backups take the accounts, serverID, groups, directory structure, and lots of other things.Basically I have no chance of doing a master restore. The question here: Is there any way of getting my data out from the master backup file (thats where my stuff is)? I'm thinking of "restoring" it to a separate non-master db, table, anything. I know now that I did the most stupidest thing ever, but believe me I don't want the last half years work to just disappear.
I am fairly new to VS 2005 and SQL Server CE. I have developed a Desktop Windows application using VB 2005 and the SQL Compact Edition Database. This application will sell to users via web download.
When they download a service patch, or updated version, I wish for them to retain the data in their present database. In other words, fill the new database with the old data. The new table structures will remain intact except for added columns at the end.
Question is how to save the old data and update the new database with it. Is there an easy way to do this, or do I need to write a module to save a database copy, and update the new database with content at install time?
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.
Scenerio:
Its 3pm and a user comes to me and says, she's deleted an invoice with many associated items. I know the affected tables (foreign keys) and I have last nights backup of the db. However I don't want restore the entire db back from last night just the deleted invoice record/s. What is the best practice procedure for accomplishing this?
i have been doing tests and i cannot manage to do this. here is what i have done and am trying to do:
I created a full backup of the adventureworks database
I made some updates to tables.
I created a differential backup.
I done an update update to another table, dropped a table, and done another update.
Lets say in a production envrionment i just realised the table was dropped and i wanted to go to the transaction just before the table was dropped. is this possible, or are all transactions in the log going to be lost? All i have found remotely related to this are marked transactions, but they are not what i am looking for. i want a list of transactions in the log and be able to select one as the backup point ( via SSMS or TSQL). i am not looking for a point in time restore.
Thanks all

Hi!
Is there any way I can resore a specified set of deleted rows from a table? Most of these rows were created during the course of the day, but at the end a user deleted them accidentally. My latest full backup is from last night, but if I restore it, it will overwrite many other tables that already have correct informaiton entered during the day. Is there any to roll back only the transaction with which the rows were deleted?

I have an SQL .bak file and I would only like to restore specific columns as one of the columns is a free text field and is substantially increasing the size of the file. I can't restore it due to disk space constraints so dropping the column isn't possible if I can't get the table into a database locally.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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.

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!

Hello to all members.
I am using SQL Server 2005 std edition 32 bit
The database is configured in compatibility mode to sql server 2000
The backup mode for the database is configured as simple
With SQL Server Agent I am running schedule task of the backup script
The question is:
I would like to save only the last 7 days in repository.
This means that when the 8th days has become then the 1st day backup is deleted.
in the 9th day the 2nd day backup file is deleted.
and so on
I am using the the T-SQL BACKUP DATABASE command with the following arguments:
RETAINDAYS = 7
NOFORMAT
NOINIT
SKIP
I am in situation that the command above only append to the backup file and without deleting the expired backup days.
What I need to change in the parameters that the script will delete the expired backup days.
Thanking in advance everyone who assist.

It is too much work when working with Database Maintenance Wizard.
lets take a scenario that I have 10 database.
I would like that each database will backup into seperate file.
I need to create 10 * 7 Maintenance plans.
I have created a directory with the name SDBbackup.
Now under the directory SDBbackup I have created 7 directories (1,2,3,4,5,6,7).
Each directory is for Sunday=1 , Monday=2 , and etc.
It's very much work if I need to accomplish it with Database Maintenance Wizard.
This is why I am asking a specific question regarding T-SQL.
Thanking in advance everyone who assist.

View 6 Replies View RelatedWe currently have a company program in foxpro which inputs all of our information into its database. We are trying to shift from this to new updated software and a SQL database. There is a program we created which converts all the data from our old database into our new SQL database in preparation for our final move to the newer software. However, some of the tables in SQL were not taken directly from our old database but rather added in directly after our initial use of SQL, so when we ran our conversion software, a couple of specific tables were wiped because there was no equivilant within our old database. We already altered our conversion program to not touch those tables again, but is there any way to do a roll back or to find a backup of specific tables?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to write SQL that will search the tables in a database for a specific column, like this. For instance, I have a column "Unique_ID" that is in many of our tables (hundreds) but not in others and want to find out the tables it is in. It is always the first column.
I tried to find a system stored procdure to do this but couldn't and tried to create a script using the sysobjects and syscolumns tables in the Master db, but came to a roadblock because they don't seem to be related at all.
I would surely appreciate if someone else has already done this!

I want to copy FirstName and LastName cells from table1 to table2. Which FirstName and LastName cells depend on the username, i.e. which person has logged in.
Q1) How can this be done? (I have chosen to SELECT from Table1 and output to variables (C# code); then INSERT these variables into Table2. [Finding it very difficult]).
Any suggestions/comments would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

I have two queries from two different tables ex ABC and BCD. For table ABC, according to my query, I got 11 records ; for table BCD I only got 9 records.
Bottom line: I would like to see only 11 records from Table ABC including certain data from table BCD after I joined this two tables.
However, no matter what I did I always got 99 records when I joined.
