Copying MSDE Database To Disk - How??
Dec 7, 2003
I have my little MSDE on my computer. I can add and delete stuff from it through Web Matrix. My question is, where exactly is the database stored in Windows?? Also, say I wanted to copy it to a disk so I could show it to someone else, what file(s) would I need to copy?
The reason why I ask is because I have been doing a website as a project and we have to hand in all files on a disk. Getting all the .aspx & .ascx and the .config file is easy, but the database & stored procedures is proving tricky to find.
Thanks

I have a legasy database developed for SQL 2000 running in MSDE. I've tried COPY DATABASE into SQL 2005 (Developer edition, to see if I can get it to work right before specing out a new server), but the user accounts don't copy and I also suspect my settings for security and permissions aren't right.
I can set SQL server security to mixed mode, and the legasy system front end Access projects to connect using Windows authentication only, but then I'm unable to control access and set roles. I need to be able to connect as a particular user in order to admin the legasy system.
Is there a fairly uncomplicated way to copy user accounts and set SQL Server options to assign roles/permissions for an MSDE legasy system copy to SQL 2005?

Note : I have a plain copy of all the sql server directory with all the files including the database not a SQLServer backup done with the wizards.

If I return the Average, Minimum, and Maximum values for the counter Physical Disk: Avg. Disk Queue Length, and those values are 10, 0, 87 respectively, which value do I use to compute the Avg. Disk Queue Length for a 4 disk array(RAID 10): Average, Minimum, or Maximum? The disk(lun) is on a SAN.

How to maintain Database User Permissions when copying the Database from One SQL Server to another(Either through backups or sp_detach). The reason is the login sid is different in the target server and as a result the database user is not able to map to the login existing in the target server. The only way I can correct this is through dropping and recreating the user's again and assign the permissions, or change the system catalog - sysusers to remap the login to the user in the database.
I do not wish to use the sp_addalias as it is available only for backward compatibility.
Is there a better way of doing this ?

Hello,
I am trying to setup a test cluster and am having an issue. When I try to create the resource of a physical disk it takes both the drive e: and drive q: and doesn't seperate them into two physical disks as resources. This means when I try to associate the quorum disk it links the to physcial disk resource of drive e and q. Then when I try to install SQL2k5 I get the warning about installing SQL on the quorum disk. Am I missing something? Is there a way to seperate e and q onto two physical disk resources so I can specifically associate the quorum to q and the sql to e or should I be setting the quorum disk to a majority node set? Thanks in advance.
John

Hello,
this is my configuration :
1) 3 disks in RAID5 that hold the SQL data
2) 1 disk in RAID0 that holds the only paging file.
What will happen to the SQL data (DB) when the disk that holds the paging file crashes?
Kindest regards,

Hi all,
New member here...
I've used SQL2000 before (Enterprise Mgr, Query Analyzer), but, now I'm at a company without any DBAs so I'm on my own as far as administration goes which I haven't done before on SQL2000.
We have a production database about 100MB in size. As of now there is no development DB. They won't pay for a new server, so I'd like to create a new development database on the same prod server. Then, I want to copy the existing prod database into the new dev DB.
I've read up some on DTS, but I wanted to check with the community to see if anyone had other recommendations or if this is the best way to go about it.
Also, is this a process that should run at off-hours? Would the copy of production lock the DB up?
Thanks a lot...

Hello,I'm trying to make a copy of a database with this code
Code Snippet
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string dbname = @"D:Documents and SettingsBeheerderMijn documentenVisual Studio 2005ProjectsTest12Test12inDebugDatabase1.mdf";
string constr = string.Format("Data Source=(local)\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDBFilename="{0}";Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True", dbname);
using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(constr))
{
connection.Open();
connection.Close();
}
File.Copy("Database1.mdf", "Database1Copy.mdf");
}
but once the code tries to execute the File.Copy line it comes with an error that the database is currently in use by another program, and also when I'm debugging the program and I try to copy this database with windows explorer it says that the program is currently in use.I've read up some stuff and found that you can stop the SQLServer Service, wich I did but then my program gave an error about not being able to connect to the database, when starting upand also detaching and attaching a database, wich I don't know how to do.So my question is are any of these above methods correct to do, and how do write the code for it? If not is there any other way to copy a database?Thanks in advance,Ruben Pieters

Hi All,
One of the drives that stores the database file is close to running out of space. The chance of me getting more space added to this drive any time soon are really low. What are other options I have?

I want to move 2 databases to another physical disk. They are both single file databases. It looks like a fairly straigtforward attach and detach procedure, but I have a couple of questions:
The log files (.ldf) currently reside on a separate physical disk from the data files, if I attach and reattach the data files will the logs remain where they are by default or do I have to re specify there location?
Is there any advantage to running the update statistics portion of the sp_detach_db?

We are going to implement either a replicated database or use log shipping to another database to support our reporting needs. Basically we are moving reporting over data off our transactional database.
With this in mind, I have several questions:
Are there any special configurations in terms of disks for a database in this situation?What are the recommended raid types?
Also, we currently store our data in one filegroup and indexes in another so obviously I'll want those on 2 separate physical disks other than the C:. What about the log files? Do I care where they go (on C: or another physical drive separate from C:, data filegroup drive and index filegroup drive)?
Thanks!

Hi there
It is obvious that putting multiple database files on different physical disk is better for performance, but what about splitting the data on different files on the same disk?
I have got a database of about 20GB and only a single data file. will I benefit from splitting this file to multiple files on the same disk?

Hi,Whats the best and easiest way to copy a table from one database to another via ASP.net?I want to copy from SQL Server to Oracle. I have an ODBC connection for Oracle.I was thinking I could use a DataSet, but wasn't sure of the details on doing this. Am I off base on this?What I have so far..1) I can get the data from SQL Server into a DataSet.2) I can establish a connection to Oracle via ODBC and the database has the appropriate table structure.How do I 'use' the SQL Server DataSet to copy the data to Oracle?Thanks,Scott

Hi, I'm trying to copy one SQL Server Database into another SQL Server DB within the same server. I learnt a bit about this copying, that it copies only the Database structure, the Tabels, constraints view stored procedures etc etc. Is there a tutorial where I can get clear instructions to do this. I just need the table structure without any data to be copied into this. Have even tried exploring creating and executing DTS packages but cudn't get much help with this. Any help wud be really appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,
Does anyone know how to copy a database from one server to another? I want to backup a production database and restore it to a different server (a test server) as a test.
I used a sample from the MCDBA study book and all I got was two copies of Northwind on the same server. Any idea what I did wrong? Seems like you should be able to backup on one server and restore on another. Here's the code I used:
BACKUP DATABASE Northwind
TO DISK = 'Sd-appsmssql7DataNwind.bak'
RESTORE FILELISTONLY
FROM DISK = 'Sd-appsmssql7DataNwind.bak'
RESTORE DATABASE Northwind2
FROM DISK = 'Sd-appsmssql7DataNwind.bak'
WITH MOVE 'Northwind' TO 'Sd-sqlmssql7DataNorthwind.mdf',
MOVE 'NorthwindLog1' TO 'Sd-sqlmssql7DataNorthwindLog1.ldf'
GO
Thanks for your help.
