Backup Restoration / Append Query

Jul 20, 2005

Hi All:

Being a bit of a nube to MSSQL I could use a little advice. This is the
situation.

A client's HDD became full so I backed up, deleted then recreated a blank
database (they said they didn't need the stored data).
They have now deceided that they want the data again.

My plan is to restore the database to a second volume so it can grow as much
as is needed, however, there is now data in the second instance that would
need importing to the restored DB.

I can restore the backed up db with a different name and reconfigure the
software that accesses it but what would be the best method to append the
restored DB with the data in the current instance of said DB? Both DBs are
identical.

TIA

SQL Security :: Full Backup Needed After Restoration Of Database Before Transaction Log Backup

Jul 15, 2015

We 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?

Restoration Of Publication Database Backup

Jul 27, 2006

When I tried to restore backup of publication database, time taken for restoration is too long [ 4 hours]. The actual database restore takes only 20 minutes but the stored procedures used for cleanup replication takes the remaining time. Is the issue related to my environment or the cleanup replication stored procedure?

How To Shut Down BACKUP APPEND Mode?

Jun 13, 2007

Hi All,

I got a job which runs every day this T-SQL code:

BACKUP DATABASE [myDB] TO DISK = N'f:BACKUPSDailymyBKUP.bak' WITH NOINIT , NOUNLOAD , NAME = N'mybackup', NOSKIP , STATS = 10, NOFORMAT

It runs just fine but in append Mode (the default one); the bak file is being taped every night, so I would like to overwrite it, in order it not to become huge after a few time, but I can't seem to find a clear way to do this.

Any help or pointing would be appreciated!

Cheers,

Giovanni

SQL Server Admin 2014 :: Append Differential Backup

Feb 10, 2015

Look at this scenario

1- I have created a backup device
2- I have created a maintenance plan full backup and run it - with overwrite option on the backup device
3- I have created a maintenance plan differential backup and run it with append option on the same file of backup device
4- I have created a maintenance plan log backup with append option on the same backup device

When I made restore database from the backup device i found three files the full and differential and log backup

5- I ran again the differential backup maintenance plan ( suppose to be ran everyday night )

when i made restore database I found only two backups the full and the last differential !!!

what I want to do is to take a full backup every week , append differential backup everyday and append log backup every hour

when I ran the last differential backup it erased the first differential and log backups, why is this happening and how to apply this scenario and keep the all differential backups on the same backup device .

Help With Access Append Query To Ms Sql

Feb 21, 2006

hi,
I am in the process of creating an append query that sends the fields of an open form from my ms access 2000 db to a table in ms sql 2000. I've successfully linked the ms sql tables and created the query to pull data from my form but when i run the append i get a key violation error and nothing gets appended. I know which field is the primary key in ms sql i just don't know how to change my access table to suit, any ideas?

To start I've made my append query simple and it just pulls the contact name. Here's my sql statement if that helps.
CODE
INSERT INTO dbo_PatientMaster ( PatientFirstName, PatientLastName, PatientAccountNumber )
SELECT [Forms]![Contacts]![FirstName] AS Firstname, [Forms]![Contacts]![LastName] AS [Last], [Contacts]![PatientAccountNumber] AS [Patient Account Number]
FROM Contacts, dbo_PatientMaster
GROUP BY [Forms]![Contacts]![FirstName], [Forms]![Contacts]![LastName], [Contacts]![PatientAccountNumber];
In access the patient account number is empty and I just created that field in my access table today.

thanks in advance

Append Query Problems

Nov 30, 2006

Hi

I am doing an A level database project. I need to build a system to deal with ordering and selling products.

I am trying to make an append query that will append all the products bought in my "invoices" table to my "archive" table. I want invoices that are three months old to be transferred the the "archive" table. I have been trying to put a criteria in the query for the Date field but I haven't managed to find an expression that works.

I'm sorry if this is too simple and you guys think im just being stupid.
I figured it was worth asking on here!! It's really bugging me.

Single Query To Update And Append

May 5, 2004

I need to write a single query that will append the values from one table into another table but I need to update a single field in the table with a static value. What I'm working with is an Access .adp with an SQL 2000 backend. The database is used to track ticket sales, payments, and contact info for season ticket holders. Prior to upsizing, each year the database would be copied and then choice bits modified for the next year.

In other words, the history was in several databases, i.e. db2001, db2002, db2003 and for the current year dbcurrent. I decided to create a historic tables in the current DB rather than have umpteen DBs on my SQL server.

My problem is that I need to create a query that appends to my table the previous years data and then updates the season field to reflect the season that the data came from.

In short, say I have a table named accounts
with fields
account, customer, addr1, addr2, ..., ticket type
and I want it to end up in
account_hist with fields
account, customer, addr1, addr2, ..., ticket type, SEASON
and make the season equal say 8 which represents the 8th season the team has played.
I can get both queries to work seperately :D , but for end user ease, I want to perform both actions at the same time :confused: .
Can anybody point me in the right direction?
Thanks

Append Query Problems, From Access To Excel

Feb 27, 2003

Hi everyone. I have a problem with an append query runing from a small Access database and would very much appreciate some input.

The append query from Access is as follows:

INSERT INTO TransferTable ( Name, Surname, Company, Address1, Address2, [Town/City], County, PostCode, Phone, Fax, Email, [Client type] )
SELECT [Clients].[Name], [Clients].[Surname], [Clients].[Company], [Clients].[Address 1], [Clients].[Address 2], [Clients].[Town/City], [Clients].[County], [Clients].[Post Code], [Clients].[PhoneNumber], [Clients].[FaxNumber], [Clients].[Email Address], [Clients].[ClientType]
FROM Clients
WHERE [Name]=[Forms]![Client Form]!Name;

This works up to a point. What it does is send the selected data to the TransferTable which is a link table to a sheet in an Excel workbook.

So far so good.

Each time the query is run though, it inserts the selectd data on the line below the previous run, even if the information that was inserted last time was not saved. So on the first run the query will drop the desired information into row A2 of the TransferTable, then even if that is deleted and the changes to the workbook are not saved, the next time the query is run it goes down to row A3, then A4 and so on. no doubt this is the exact point of an append query, but it's really aggravating me.

What I'd like is a query that will get the data into the same row of the TransferTable each time it is run, since another sheet in the Excel workbook runs some calculations based on the data held in the cells of the TransferTable sheet.

I've tried the SQL editor in Excel, but my very limited knowledge has left me completely frustrated. Does anyone have any ideas how I can achieve this outcome before I go completely nuts ?

I don't mind if the query runs from Excel or Access.

Thanks in advance to anyone who offers any input.

Server Trigger Timing Out Access Append Query

Oct 17, 2013

I have a SQL Server database running on a local PC which will eventually be scaled up once everything is working.

The Database takes data from an Access database, then the SQL Server aggregates this data into several other tables.

I have used a trigger to run this in SQL Server, once a table in SQL Server is appended with a specific value.

I have tested the trigger to do a simple task, and this works.

I have tested the aggregation query which create 18 seperate tables as well. It takes around 25 minutes to run. These are huge tables

When I use Access to append the final value to start the SQL Server trigger it freezes and eventually times out. I assume this is because it is running the 25minute trigger, and Access has to wait until this is completed before it can proceed.

I was hoping it would trigger SQL Server to run the trigger, then Access could go off and do something else!

Append Query From Access Table To Linked SQL Server Table Failing

Jun 18, 2004

Strange one here - I am posting this in both SQL Server and Access forums

Access is telling me it can't append any of the records due to a key violation.

The query:

INSERT INTO dbo_Colors ( NameColorID, Application, Red, Green, Blue )
SELECT Colors_Access.NameColorID, Colors_Access.Application, Colors_Access.Red, Colors_Access.Green, Colors_Access.Blue
FROM Colors_Access;

Colors_Access is linked from another MDB and dbo_Colors is linked from SQL Server 2000.

There are no indexes or foreign contraints on the SQL table. I have no relationships on the dbo_ table in my MDB. The query works if I append to another Access table. The datatypes all match between the two tables though the dbo_ tables has two additional fields not refrenced in the query.

I can manually append the records using cut and paste with no problems.

I have tried re-linking the tables.

Any ideas?
Thanks,
Brad

Please excuse my lack of understanding as I am not a SQL DBA.

I have just received a database backup: "myDB_20005034400.bak" and have been
asked to put a copy on my server. I am told that this was made from the Enterprise Manager's DB Maintenance Utility. The backup Administrator has left the company with the server in a crashed condition.

How can I find out what "myDB_20005034400.bak" pertains to? (No msdb, etc. available). I am RESTORING TO A NEW SERVER.

MAIN: HOW DO I RESTORE THIS FILE TO A NEW DATABASE; ie TestDB (TestDB.mdf;
TestDB.ldf)?

Thanks a trillion.
