DB Engine :: Create Read-only Database From Production And Restore On Different Server
Jun 4, 2015
We have a production 2012 R2 SQL server that is not part of a domain. I have a database called CSSDC. I need to backup this database and make the BAK file available to a user on a different SQL server. Security is a concern. In order for this user to restore the database, they will have to be in the fixed server role sysadmins. I know I am going to have to use the Move with replace for the filegroups for the restore. Once the database is restored it will have to be altered to read-only. I would also like to remove the existing security and only have this new user access the read-only database.

I am using SQL Server Management Studio 12 to try to restore a backup to a new database. I know I have done this before, but cannot seem to make it happen now. Her is what I have.
Backup file is "C:TempInProcessInspection_DataSQL_backup_2015_02_23_000012_4551393.bak" and it is for sure there.
This came from a customer of mine.I launch SQL Server Management Studio 12 and log in as SA. I right click on Databases and chose Restore Database. I choose Device then file then Add and try to browse the the named location.
When I get there, regardless if I choose All files or Bak, I see no files.I tried to upload an image of the "Upload Backup File" dialog, but MSDN would let it happen. When I get to the c:temp folder, no files appear in the window.

Hello, everyone:
I have two questions about database restorsation.
1. From Enterprise Manager, I can choose Read-only model (able to install another transaction log). How to execute same model restore by T-SQL? This script is used by Loading model:
RESTORE DATABASE MyNwind
FROM MyNwind_1
WITH NORECOVERY,
MOVE 'MyNwind' TO 'c:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLDataNewNwind.mdf',
MOVE 'MyNwindLog1' TO 'c:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLDataNewNwind.ldf'
RESTORE LOG MyNwind
FROM MyNwindLog1
WITH NORECOVERY
2. If a database is in Read-only Warm Stand-by because restore trans log files, how to turn of read-only model?
Thanks

One of our database came to Restoring mode. I suddenly stop my SQL service and Copied only MDF files again Started SQL service ,unexpectedly i dropped the Database. Now i cant able to attach the database only with my MDF file.
I tried below Scripts. All scripts shows same error.
EXEC sp_attach_single_file_db @dbname='PhoenixPolice',
@physname=N'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL10_50.MSSQLSERVERMSSQLPhoenixPolice.mdf'
GO
CREATE DATABASE PhoenixPolice ON
(NAME = N'PhoenixPolice',
FILENAME = N'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL10_50.MSSQLSERVERMSSQLPhoenixPolice.mdf')
FOR ATTACH_REBUILD_LOG
GO
CREATE DATABASE phoenixPolice ON (FILENAME = N'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL10_50.MSSQLSERVERMSSQLPhoenixPolice.mdf')
FOR ATTACH
All scripts shows below error
File activation failure. The physical file name "F:Microsoft SQL ServerMSSQL10_50.MSSQLSERVERMSSQLDATAPhoenixPolice_1.ldf" may be incorrect.
The log cannot be rebuilt because there were open transactions/users when the database was shutdown, no checkpoint occurred to the database, or the database was read-only. This error could occur if the transaction log file was manually deleted or lost due to a hardware or environment failure.
Msg 1813, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Could not open new database 'PhoenixPolice'. CREATE DATABASE is aborted.

Our application team make design changes of the database in their development server and asks me to restore the bak file from the development server into the production server with replace command. The database in the production server is connected to the application server and so when I try to restore the database error message comes that the database is in use.
So first I find out the sessions with the logins who is the user in the database with sys.dm_exec_sessions joined with sys.dm_exec_requests and then kill the sessions. And after that it is possible to restore. But many times when I kill the session and try to restore in between new sessions comes into effect which are generated from the web server and many times I have to resubmit the query in the dmv's and find the sessions and kill it again and again before restore can be done. Is there any correct method to restore an active database which is being accessed by the application from a web server with out stopping the web server?

What I want to do is :
- restore a backup of a 3rd party database onto one of our servers
- this has no users that I can use
- there is some ETL processing so we're using Control-M to manage the process
- create a database user and grant it db_reader.
I'd like to do this without granting any users elevated privileges if possible.
What I've done so far is grant the Control-M user (this is a domain user) dbcreator rights and made it owner of our copy of the database that is being refreshed.
The refresh is completing, but Control-M is not able to log onto the database to create the user.
What is the best way to accomplish this task without granting the control-m user sysadmin rights?
Would I be able to do it if I used a SQL Agent job for the restore and user creation?

Howdy;
I've tried this in the 'tools' area, but that didn't work too well. I suspect, I will have to generate a T-SQL code then schedule it as a job. Why I can't just drag and drop with basic desires, is beyond me, but THAT probably does exist.
anyway here is the problem
[this server has many databases, on SQL 2000 sp2]
1. User only wants me to use Monday morning's full backup, which is good in that it doesn't include transaction logs.
2. Restore that data overtop/into Developement db. = good, no data to worry about damaging.
3. User does NOT want me to do this by hand, but schedule it.
ok,
a. must do a RESTORE WITH FILELISTONLY from [?] what ?, master? and if I user the *.bak of the production, it has
a coded date field in the name entry SO, I would, I guess, have to generate all sorts of wonderful code to find the date and build a file name. Why, because using the FROM DISK = 'F:MSSQLBACKUPDBPRODUCTION_yyyyddmm.BAK' is not going to work with a wild card.
Can I do a file lookup using a 'PRODUCTION' prefix into a variable, then use that or should I look for latest file date [remember there are several database backups here], or ????
then. How does one schedule such a T-SQL. Do I save it to some text file, and invoke it using a job scheduler.
any help appreciated.
IS there an easier way.

I am working on a project for an SQL job. I am:
1.) Taking a database out of an availability group,
2.) Setting the recovery to simple,
3.) Shrinking the log file,
4.) Setting the recovery mode back to full,
5.) Then backing it up.
I need to restore the file to my secondary server with replace and non recovery mode. I am having trouble performing that call? I have the code to reestablish the database to the availability group if I can get the restore feature working.

Hi,
Is there any tool available to migrate the data from the SQL Server test database to SQL Server production database. Data Migration should be based on a condition which can be given as an input for a table by the user. The dependant tables also should be migrated based on the given condition. i.e data subsetting based on the matching conditions.
Ex : Salary > 2000
The rows of the table which matches the condition alone need to be migrated for the corresponding table. Also its dependant table's rows should be migrated based on the given condition. Please help me with a tool which can automate this.
Thanks,
MiraJ

There is a database located at remote location we wanted the same on the local server..so we backed it up then restored the same on the local server everything went successfull.
When i tried to create user it says the user is already existing, but nither can i see the user nor drop the one..(ofcourse not existing) it gives me an error 15023.

Hi all,
I have a site which used a SQL Express database. On my development machine, it works perfectly. As soon as I move it to the production machine, it doesn't work at all. I am pretty confused by what is going on and I really don't want to install Visual Studio on my production machine just to debug it. I am hoping someone might have an idea what could be happening.
Oh, and I have tried setting Everyone to Full Control on the App_Data directory just to test. Still breaks. Below is my web.config connection string:
<connectionStrings> <add name="database_sqlexpress" connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS; AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|MyDatabase.mdf; integrated security=true; user instance=true"/></connectionStrings>

I have a 20 GB SS2005 database that I would like to be replicated to a dev server for testing purposes. I might have some issues with the firewall blocking ports. I haven't read up on the specifics of how log shipping works yet, but I assume that is the best approach. A daily transfer would suffice.
A few options I am considering:
1. use the built in stuff, but I'm not sure it will work with our security settings, and if the trans logs are large it might be strained.
2. writing a small custom app to zip up the log file then ftp them down to the dev server. This could run nightly.
3. some third party util, such as FolderShare could transfer the log files
Any comments or suggestions?

I actually am just looking for some supporting documentation on some facets of SQL Server.As far as I have always known, when anyone does a READ from a SQL Server database (SELCT * from <TABLE>), SQL Server does not create a log record...since there's no data or database structure being modified. A colleague is under the impression READ's are logged operations.

I have a windows forms application that I would like to put in production on several machines. Each machine will contain it's own data and does not need to be networked.
I can use my local connection right now to access the data, but I would like to change my connection so that it will work when installed on a client's machine.
My Current connection string looks like this:
Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename="C:Documents and SettingsMYNAMEMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2005ProjectsInterimApplicationInterimApplicationInterim.mdf";Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True
I believe I could use something like this:
Dim connectionString as string = "Data Source=" & Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.ProgramFiles) & "/InterimApplication/data/Interim.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"
However, I am not sure. Also, if the client does not install to the default directory, then this may cause the application to not work properly.
Lastly, I am not sure if the client machine needs any additional software on their computer in order for the application to be capable of connecting to the data source.
Any recommendations, ideas, comments, or general help is greatly appreciated.

I was hoping for some information regarding table triggers. We have databases that are part of an AlwaysOn availability group on SQL Server 2012. Some of the tables have table triggers defined. There are both types of triggers, INSTEAD OF and AFTER INSERT, etc.
From my understanding of how secondary read-only replicas work, I am assuming that these triggers have no impact at all when the database is a read-only secondary replica and they only fire when the database is the primary read-write database.
However, after doing a search on the internet, I have not been able to find a definitive source of information.

Hi
Can we use BCP AND/OR BULK INSERT to do development server databse refresh from production server . I have to do this by following the rules below:
- no truncation of source table
- update of changed or new records only.
I know we can use replication, dts and other methods for this but I need information about this one.

Server: Msg 3415, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Database 'TestSprintLD2' is read-only or has read-only files and must be made writable before it can be upgraded.
What command(s) are needed to make these files read_write?

Hi,I have transactional replication set up on on of our MS SQL 2000 (SP4)Std Edition database serverBecause of an unfortunate scenario, I had to restore one of thepublication databases. I scripted the replication module and droppedthe publication first. Then did a full restore.When I try to set up the replication thru the script, it created thepublication with the following error messageServer: Msg 2714, Level 16, State 5, Procedure SYNC_FCR ToGPRPTS_GL00100, Line 1There is already an object named 'SYNC_FCR To GPRPTS_GL00100' in thedatabase.It seems the previous replication has set up these system viewsSYNC_FCR To GPRPTS_GL00100. And I have tried dropping the replicationmodule again to see if it drops the views but it didn't.The replication fails with some wired error & complains about thisviews when I try to run the synch..I even tried running the sp_removedbreplication to drop thereplication module, but the views do not seem to disappear.My question is how do I remove these system views or how do I make thereplication work without using these views or create new views.. Whyis this creating those system views in the first place?I would appreciate if anyone can help me fix this issue. Please feelfree to let me know if any additional information or scripts needed.Thanks in advance..Regards,Aravin Rajendra.
