DB Backup From 1 PC && Restore To Diff. PC
Aug 8, 2007
Friends,
I have taken backup of a database, of which Data (MDF) & Log (LDF) files are located on "E:...." directory.
Now, I am using the same backup file to restore on another PC which is having no partitions at all. I mean now I have to restore the database using same backup file, of which Data & Log files should be located on "C:...." directory only, as it has no partitions.
This restore process gives me error :
Restore failed for Server 'HSVMMICROFIT'.
Details : System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The operating system returned the error '5(Access is denied.)' while attempting 'RestoreContainer::ValidateTargetForCreation' on 'C:Program FilesMicroFitHealthStar v6.0 Server EditionDataMICROFIT_HealthStar_Data.mdf'.
What is to be done, in order to restore the database from the same back up file successfully, regardless whether the original physical location of the MDF & LDF file, is existing on current PC ??????????????
Please try to solve the same for me.... W8ing...

Can i restore a diff. backup alone without a complete backup?
(what i am trying is this.....there are two different servers at two diff. places....i need to have both servers in sync. at all times.modifications will take place in one server and the modifications have to be reflected in the other server.i could not go for replication as the servers cannot be connected.sending complete backups daily will be a overhead .hence planning to take complete backup once and send diff. backups alone on subsequent days to the other server.
how can i achieve this?)

Dear all
I am new to the MS SQL, my problem is as follows.
I am having a online database on sql 2k.
every 15 days we have to give payout from our system, so we
have a offline server in our office, we take the complete backup of that day & restore the same on the offline server,
& start the payout process.
The problem is that the full backup is a big file & take a lot of time for downloading from online server.
is it possible that we take on diff. backup of that day & will restore the same on the offline server so the file will take less time to download.
but my offline backup is 15 days old, will that update all the records or not?
regards
Abhijit

In playing with differential backups, i have taken a full last night, 17GB, took my first diff today 16.5GB, took another diff right after, it was still 16.5GB, took another diff right after 16.5 GB. This database has 0 activity during the day, the import takes place @ night, and select's are done to it during the day. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I have a handful of jobs that I need to troubleshoot, but this one will hopefully give me enough insight to do the rest myself. I need to figure out why a Maintenance Plan that performs a Diff Backup on 4 databases, and then a transaction log back up on the 4 databases is failing. I just get the following error message, and I cannot tell what failed.

SQL Server 2000 sp3 Enterprise (8.00.818) running on W2K Adv Server cluster.
DB's and backups resided on a fibre SAN attached IBM FAStT 500 storage controller.
I had problems with random restore failures, getting errors such as "3270 Internal Consistency Error" on log restores or on full restores after reporting problems with some of the files. This was fixed (we thought) by disabling the read caching on the FAStT 500 storage controller, per Microsoft's recommendation.
We have a custom-written log shipping solution that maintains a 2nd copy of our user DB on the same system, so there's 700+ backups/restores of various types in the course of a week. After two months of error-free operation, we just got another Internal Consistency Error, but this time on a differential restore, which was a first. Looking back, we realized we were running a DBCC INDEXDEFRAG command on the source DB at the time the differential backup was running. Taking a new differential and using it in the restore sequence worked fine, so clearly the problem was in the first diff backup file.
Anybody else noticed any problems with running DBCC INDEXDEFRAG at the same time as a differntial backup?

I need to copy the last differential backup file from the production server directory to a data warehouse server directory. There are 3 differential backup files on the directory and I need to grab the latest one. I have the following syntax which work from a batch file but it does not work when I put it into a job step as a cmd even though I remove the double %% to only one %.
echo @off
set path1="192.29.305.213$SqlserverProductionBa ckupsKBR_PROD"
set path2=K:SqlserverDatawarehouseBackupPROD
for /f "tokens=*" %%a in ('dir /b /a-d /o-d "%path1%DIFF*.bak"') do copy "%path1%\%%~a" "%path2%" & goto nextstep
:nextstep
Echo File Copied.
Even when I change it to (only one % for the variable),
for /f "tokens=*" %a in ('dir /b /a-d /o-d "%path1%DIFF*.bak"') do copy "%path1%\%~a" "%path2%"
It does not work..........It runs successfully but no file is copied or I get

Hello,
My master database (MS SQL 2005) has simple recovery model, however, when performing diff backup of "all databases", I am getting the following error:
Executing the query "BACKUP DATABASE [master] TO DISK = N'X:\Database Backups\diff backups\master\master_backup_200803251235.bak' WITH DIFFERENTIAL , NOFORMAT, NOINIT, NAME = N'master_backup_20080325123514', SKIP, REWIND, NOUNLOAD, STATS = 10
" failed with the following error: "You can only perform a full backup of the master database. Use BACKUP DATABASE to back up the entire master database.
BACKUP DATABASE is terminating abnormally.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
If I choose to back up only "All user databases", then it performs just fine. Why I cannot run diff backup of master?

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.

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.

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!

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?

BACKUP DATABASE pubs TO NetworkDevice
it gives me an error saying

I don't really understand what's goin.
basically i need to synchronize my production database so what am i planning is to take a full backup on that server everynight and then restore it back.
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.

I have following questions if anybody could help
