Late last Sunday I had to do an emergency rebuild of our SQL Server (v2012). In my haste, I neglected to restore the MSDB and MODEL DBs, and am instead using those which came with the fresh SQL install -- which obviously don't contain my jobs and maintenance plans. Would there be any problem/conflicts with me restoring those DBs this weekend?
View 5 RepliesHi All,
I am working on a third party client product which shrinks all the databases in MS SqlServer based on the rule or parameter that is set. This product will be used in production server which has MS SqlServer 7.0.
My question is: Is it advisable to shrink Master,Model and Msdb databases in an production environment? Please give the reasons.
Thanks

hi, I already have jobs in the sql server agen. I want to copy all these jobs to another sql server, What is the best way to do it.
here what I am thinking to do
1. Back up the msdb from the sql server which has the jobs
2. restore msdb into the sql server where I need to create the jobs.
I got an error message, 15089 cannot change the 'single user' option of a database while another user is in the database.
But no one is in except me.? thanks for your input

Hello all!
First of all our servers:
SQL_PROD: production server with SQL Server 2005
SQL_TEST: test server with SQL Server 2005
What we are trying to do:
We are testing our backup and recovery procedures.
To do so we are using the backups from SQL_PROD and restoring them on SQL_TEST.
We are restoring: all user databases, master database, msdb database and model database.
The issue we are experiencing:
I think we've hit a kink in our recovery procedures concerning msdb database in the context of a recovery on another machine (SQL_TEST in this case).
We include msdb in our nightly backups so that, in the event of server loss, our maintenance plans and jobs get restored.
On SQL_TEST (after a recovery), the maintenance plans and jobs do get restored but the problem is that they reference the SQL_PROD server (server's name, disks, etc...).
Deleting the jobs and maintenance plans from SQL_TEST we got no errors and the jobs and plans disappeared from beneath the Maintenance Plans and Jobs nodes. Doing a refresh on the nodes, the €œdeleted€? plans and jobs reappear beneath their respective nodes! Upon the second deletion (and any consecutive delete) we get the error:
Failed to retrieve data for this request. (Microsoft.SqlServer.SmoEnum)
...
The SELECT permission was denied on the object 'sysmaintplan_plans', database 'msdb', schema 'dbo'. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 229)
Clicking on "Show technical details" reveals this:
...
Server Name: SQL_PROD
Error Number: 229
Severity: 14
State: 5
Line Number: 1
...
Note that SQL_PROD is being referenced in the error message!
This morning I took a look at SQL_PROD€™s Maintenance Plans and Jobs (the source of the msdb backup) and surprise surprise: THEY WERE ALL GONE!!! This is a MAJOR BUG!!! Deleting a job or a plan on one server should not have the effect of deleting it from a different server (regardless of the origins of the msdb database). Is this a known bug? Or is it considered €œnormal€? behavior?
My questions are:
How do we delete the maintenance plans and jobs from SQL_TEST without deleting them from SQL_PROD?
What is the proper/recommended method to backup and restore maintenance plans and jobs (in fact msdb)? Is it by scripting things and recreating them on the recovery server in an empty msdb or is there a way to restore msdb properly from the crashed server?
Thanks for your help.

I had a development server that had all the raid drives fail at once.
This included most of the data/log files and all of the backups.
I need to get DTS packages from the MSDB database, I have the ldf/mdf's for that database, is there a way to restore it?
Thanks

How does one correctly go about restoring the MSDB database?
How/what should I do with the status (loading)?
I have a good backup of the MSDB.
Any help will be appreciated.
I have a sql2000 server that has failed

Hi,
I have a weekly job that runs to execute msdb.dbo.sp_delete_backup_history on history older than 7 days on a server that is a log-shipping destination server. However, I have now noticed after putting a new deadlock alert, that this job causes RESTORE LOG jobs for all 6 of my log-shipped databases, which run every minute, to deadlock.
I am not concerned with the fact that the RESTORE LOG jobs are then chosen as the deadlock victims, as they will simply re-run in the next minute anyways.
What I would like to do though is to somehow lock all the tables being cleared by sp_delete_backup_history, so that the restore jobs are forced to wait or fail without causing a deadlock to appear. I was wondering if I could do this via setting the job which runs sp_delete_backup_history to use serializable isolation level, or would that cause other problems/issues? If not that, would setting the deadlock priority level to high prevent deadlocks, or just simply force the restore log jobs to be chosen as the victim?
The main thing is that I would like to stop being "annoyed" by the deadlock messages being generated.
Any comments would be appreciated.
Regards,
Diane.
What is the best way to restore a database from a folder of backups (including full, diff and log backups) without using the backup history in msdb?
I have a restore process that restores all backups on a regular schedule in order to fully verify their integrity. To do this, I use the backup history in msdb on each server that I'm monitoring. I had a thought the other day that I would be in trouble if I lost msdb. Then my backup history would only be as good as the last backup of msdb.
What I'd like to do is read a folder of backup files and generate a restore script up to a specified time. Would I use RESTORE HEADERONLY to do this? If so, would I use PowerShell to traverse each file in the folder?
Hello, i have no specific problem but i just want to know your opinion on the issue. Last week I tested my recovery scenario and after installing new server i successfully restored master db. Then I tried to start server, but it wouldn't come up because physical path of model db in master..sysdatabases table didn't correspond to the actual location of db on new server, so that tempdb couldn't be created from model db on server startup. I started server without recovering dbs with exception of master using trace -T3608. Now I hoped that I could restore model using MOVE clause but it gave me error saying that restore operation needs to use temporary table in tempdb. To break this vicious circle I used model db files from installation CD and put them to the expected location. After two restarts server accepted the files and I went on restoring msdb and user databases. But I'm sure I must be missing something and there must be better way to do this but i haven't been able to find anything relating to this problem. Thank you for your input. mojza

While backing up our database, I am getting the following message:
Could not insert a backup or restore history/detail record in msdb.dbo.sysbackuphistory or sysrestorehistory. This may indicate a problem with the MSDB database. DUMP/LOAD was still successful. (Message 3009)
Does anybody have any resolution for the same ?

Given the follwoing scenario: You create a snapshot of a database with full recovery model, change it's recovery model to simple, then perform several updates/modifications on the database, before you finally (due to an error) restore the database from the snapshot.
Will the log chain be broken or not? The resteore sets the recovery model back to full, but I'm still a bit "curious" about the transaction logs.
Whenever I start my SQL Express 2005 database, I get the following in the logs :

View 9 Replies View Related I need to develop a language specific dwh, meaning that descriptions of products are available from a SAP system in multiple languages. English is the most important language and that is the standard. But, there are also requirements of countries that wants productdescriptions in their language.Â
Productnr Productdesc Language
1       product    EN
1       produkt    DE
One option is to column the descriptions, but that is not very elegantly. I was thinking of using bridge tables to model this but you have to always select a language in a filter (I think)..
I'm thinking of a technical solution, such that when a user logs on, the language is determined and a view determines whether to pick a certain product table specific for a certain language. But then I don't have the opportunity to interchange the different language specific fields in a report (or in my case PowerPivot).
We have the following scenario,
We have our Production server having database on which Few DTS packages execute every night. Most of them have Bulk Insert stored procedures running.
SO we have to set Recovery Model of the database to simple for that period of time, otherwise it will blow up our logs.
Is there any way we can set up log shipping between our production and standby server, but pause it for some time, set recovery model of primary db to simple, execute DTS Bulk Insert Jobs, Bring it Back to Full recovery Model AND finally bring back Log SHipping.
It it possible, if yes how can we achieve this.
If not what could be another DR solution in this scenario.
Thanks Much

Hi all,
I have MS Time Seeries model using a database of over a thousand products each of which has hundreds of cases. It amazingly takes only a few minutes to finish processing the model, but when I click Mining Model Viewer to view the models, it takes many hours to show up. Once the window is open, I can choose model for different products almost instantly. Is this normal?
hi !!i have a question about the connected and disconnected model to access the Sql server DB.......i know that there is better to choose one rather than the other in some situantions and there is no better model in all cases...... os i hope you can help me to decide what shall i choose...i will use the DB to connect to Web services and read data from the DB and wrtie some data back.......i do not know that to use ..... i hope you advise me and tell me about the rules that will allow me to choose what model to choose .... i appreciate your help!!Thanks !!!

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,
Would some one please help me with the syntex on how to run "restore filelistonly" or restore verifyonly" on a SQL backup which has multiple filesets?? My backups locations are as follow:
RESTORE VERIFYONLY
From disk = 'E:syndicated_databank__bkup_01.bak',
'E:syndicated_databank__bkup_02.bak',
€˜E:syndicated_databank__bkup_03.bak€™,
€˜E:syndicated_databank__bkup_04.bak€™, €˜E:syndicated_databank__bkup_05.bak€™
I tried to do a restore with the above, I got error The label 'E' has already been declared. Label names must be unique within a query batch or stored procedure.
Please advise!!
I have seen this before. A 2000 restore fails, leaving the database thinking it is being restored but the restore job failed and errors when it is restarted. EM is clueless. I believe there is a proc to reset some flag. Can you share it with me???
Thanks!

I know that msdb is used to manage the job schedulers in sql server 7.0 ( job agent ). Does this (msdb) like other databases, where I can control its size, shrink it or expand it.
IF am backing up the msdb, and I errased all jobs scheduled in sql agen. Can I restore all the deleted Jobs by restoring the msdb.
