Backup Failed: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: Backup And File Manipulation... Must Be Serialized
Jul 11, 2007Using SQL Server 2005 Server Management Studio, I attempted to back up a database, and received this error:
Backup failed: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: Backup and file manipulation operations (such as ALTER DATABASE ADD FILE) on a database must be serialized. Reissue the satement after the current backup or file manipulation is completed (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
Program location:
at Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Backup.SqlBackup(Server srv)
at Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.SqlManagerUI.BackupPropOptions.OnRunNow(Object sender)
Backup Options were set to:
Back up to the existing media set
Overwrite all existing backup sets
I am fairly new to SQL 2005. Can someone help me get past this issue? What other information do I need to provide?
Does A Full Backup Include Data Changes Made During The Backup?
Nov 29, 2007If my backup starts at 8PM and take 1 hour to complete, will the changes made to the database during that hour be captured in the full backup?
Stated another way, will my backup be a snapshot of:
a) 8PM when the backup started
b) 8PM with some of the changes made between the hour
c) 9PM when the backup finished?
Anybody know the exact way SQL Server handles that logic?
Thanks,
Marc
How To Copy Data From Backup Or Data Files To New SQL Installation?
Dec 10, 2005Hi,I have(had) an old Win2k Server server with about 30 web site databases(SQL 2000) that just went under due to hardware problems. Thankfully, Ihave backups of all the databases plus the MDF and LDF files from thehard drive.I want to move all of these sites and their data to a newer server(Win2003) running SQL2000.What's the best way to copy the database from the old server hard drive(now mounted as an extrnal drive to a local machine; I'm currentlyFTPing all of the web site directories from it to the new server)?Just upload the original data to the new server and then mount the MDFand LDF files within the new SQL server? Or do I restore the backupfiles in the new SQL2000?All of my previous data migrations have been DTS operations from onelive server to another, so no experience with either of the abovescenarios. I'll certainly have a lot more experience at one of them bythe time this weekend is through.Thanks for any help you can offer.
View 1 Replies View RelatedBACKUP LOG Cannot Be Performed Because There Is No Current Database Backup. BACKUP LOG Is Terminating Abnormally.
Jan 31, 2008
Hi there
I'm getting this message on my third automated backup of the transaction logs of the day. Both databases are in full recovery mode, both successfully backed up at 01.00. The transaction logs backed up perfectly happily at 01:30 and 05:30, but failed at 09:30.
The only difference between 05:30 and 09:30's backups is that the log files were shrunk at 08:15 (the databases in question are the ones that sit under ILM2007, and keeping the log files small keeps the system running better).
Is it possible that shrinking the log files causes the database to think that there hasn't been a full database backup?
Thanks
Jane

Backup Data Retention Time?
Nov 12, 2007I have just started in the scary world of SQL Server admin and am trying to unravel the mysteries of backups etc.
If I run 'BACKUP DATABASE xxx TO DISK = 'D:DB_Backupsxxx.bak' WITH RETAINDAYS = 7' each day, each db backup if appended to the same '.bak' file and the RETAINDAYS protects the backup from being deleted by SQL Server. OK so far. But does anyone understand what criteria is used to decide when to overwrite the older backups? My backup file is getting bigger everyday, with no sign of any of the old data being deleted! Do I have to wait for the entire disk to become full before they start to get overwritten? Or should I just not worry and trust that it will do it all correctly?
Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Data Missing In The Full Backup
Nov 18, 2006i have a 2005 db with full recovery mode. daily full backups, diff backups and log backups are done through sqlagent. i wanted to make a copy of it on another instance using the restore method with the latest full backup. after i created the new db, i noticed that a few tables were missing and columns were missing from existing tables also. futhermore, the recrods in these tables were not up-to-date either. i did fresh a full backup and tried again and the problem persisted. i aslo tried to restore on the same sql server instance under a different db name and that reproduced the problem.
the database schema was changed a few weeks ago and it seems that i am only seeing a snapshot of the database before the schema change. dbcc checkdb returns no error. the size of the backup file looks reasonable and i seen an increase in size since the schema change which is expected. there is no active transactions in the db and if i generate a create script, it contains proper t-sql that matches the current schema.
what am i missing there? what could i be doing wrong? i am lost here and any help or advice will be greatly appreciated!
Backup And Resore Encrypted Data
Mar 27, 2007I have two databases, one production and other a production copy.
One column of the production table is encrypted by the following syntax.
CREATE MASTER KEY ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'password!'
CREATE CERTIFICATE cert_demo
WITH SUBJECT = 'encryption demo'
CREATE SYMMETRIC KEY symkey_demo
WITH ALGORITHM = TRIPLE_DES
ENCRYPTION BY CERTIFICATE cert_demo
-----------------------------------
I have stored procedure to add records to a production table like this.
ALTER Procedure AddRecord
@id int,
@var1 varchar(100)
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @var2 varbinary(256)
OPEN SYMMETRIC KEY symkey_demo
DECRYPTION BY CERTIFICATE cert_demo
SET @var2 = EncryptByKey(
key_guid( 'symkey_demo' ),
@var1 )
insert into dbo.Test(id,Data,EData)
values(@id,@var1,@var2)
CLOSE SYMMETRIC KEY symkey_demo
END
---------------------------------
Now I need to decript the data in the production copy database. So I had export production data to the production copy database and also generates the same key and cerificate. When i tried to decrypt the data, no results has returned.
Create procedure ViewData
@id int
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @var1 varbinary(256)
DECLARE @var2 varchar(100)
OPEN SYMMETRIC KEY symkey_demo
DECRYPTION BY CERTIFICATE cert_demo
select @var1=EData from Test where id=@id
Set @var2 = convert( varchar(100), DecryptByKey( @var1))
print @var2
END
It doesn't print the enctypted data. Please suggest what goes wrong.

Recovery :: How To Backup Raw Data Only With Just Views And Tables
Sep 23, 2015My client has on a physical server (A), the following:
1. MS SQL Server 2008R2
2. MS SQL Server (Reporting Server)
The data base is backed up fully daily to another physical server (B).
What the client would like to do is:
1. Backup just the Raw SQL Data with Tables and Views to Server B every 10 mins
Point to be noted is, there isn't any dedicated storage (NAS or SAN) just local disk storage on the server.
The reason for this is they want to run reports against this data every 10-15 mins...
How and what do I need to do to facilitate this?

Restore To New Db Restores Less Data Than What Is In The Source Backup File
Jan 25, 2006I am trying to create sql code that restores a backup of a master database to a new database on the same server. It “seems” to run correctly as no errors are produced. However, the most recent updates to the master database are not present in the new databases. All databases are using the Full recovery model. What is really strange is that if I do (what I think is) the same function in Enterprise Administrator, the restore works fine! For both methods I used the same backup file!
Any and all help is sincerely appreciated.
The master databases from which the backups are made start with “MODTRNMaster”
The databases which are created from the restores start with “M1_” and “M2_”. (We call them training room databases.)
My script for backing up the master databases:
-- Backup the master training database
backup database MODTRNMaster
to disk = 'f:kupMODTRNMaster.bak'
backup database MODTRNMaster_IMG
to disk = 'f:kupMODTRNMaster_IMG.bak'
backup database MODTRNMaster_MNC
to disk = 'f:kupMODTRNMaster_MNC.bak'
backup database MODTRNMaster_VM
to disk = 'f:kupMODTRNMaster_VM.bak'
go
This is the restore script for restoring the first training room databases. I’m hoping that there is just something simple that I’m overlooking in these restore statements! J
-- Restore the backup of the master training database into the
-- training room #1 database.
use master
go
drop database M1_MSLH
go
restore database M1_MSLH
from disk = 'f:kupMODTRNMaster.bak'
with move 'DEV5_Data' to 'f:mssqldataM1_MLSH.mdf',
move 'MM' to 'f:mssqldataM1_MLSH_1.mdf',
move 'AMB' to 'f:mssqldataM1_MLSH_2.mdf',
move 'DM' to 'f:mssqldataM1_MLSH_3.mdf',
move 'IMM' to 'f:mssqldataM1_MLSH_4.mdf',
move 'ED' to 'f:mssqldataM1_MLSH_5.mdf',
move 'DEV5_Log' to 'f:mssqllogM1_MLSH_log.ldf',
recovery
go
Thanks in advance

SQL Server 2008 :: Initialize Transactional Publication From Backup Loss Of Data
Mar 18, 2015I have automated process, which synchronizes a transactional publication using initialize from backup approach. It drops subscriptions and puts them back again once the restore on the subscriber is completed.
Dropping the subscriptions causes a lot of blocking and deadlocking. I've decided to remove those steps, but it causes loss of data on the subscriber.
Is it a must to drop and re-create the subscriptions during such process? If not, how can I avoid the loss of data?
1 Log File Can Contain More Records After Performing Backup Database Statement, 2 Why Can't Insert Data When Is Log Is Not Full
Feb 14, 2008question 1:
i found that database log file can contain more records after performing backup database statement.
for example:
i create a database and limit the log file to 2mb. then i create a table and insert data.
If i backup the database before i insert data , the database file can contain 192 records unitl the log file is full.
If i don't perform the 'backup database' statement.
The 'dbcc sqlperf(logspace)' indicate the utilization ratio is less than 40% after inserting 192 records
why?
I list my code:
Code Snippet
create database db_test
on primary
(
name=db_test,
filename='C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDatadb_test.mdf'
)
log on
(
name=db_test_log,
filename='C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDatadb_test_log.ldf',
maxsize=2mb
)
go
backup database db_test to disk='db_test.bak' --- if i don't execute this line, log file can contain a lot of record
go
create table db_test..table1(col char(8000))
--insert data to fill up the database log
declare @n int
set @n=0
while @n<192
begin
insert into db_test..table1 values(replicate('a',8000))
set @n=@n+1
end
question 2:
i create a database and limit the log file to 2mb. Then i create a table and insert data in an endless loop.
After the inserting operation executing for a while, the 9002 error occurs, indicate the log file for the database is full.
But the 'dbcc sqlperf(logspace)' command indicate the unilization ratio is low, and log_reuse_wait_desc in sys.database is 'CHECKPOINT'
And I can insert data , and i'm sure the state of log_use_wait_desc is 'CHECKPOINT'.
As i known, the checkpoint can't truncate log under full recovery model. Only the back log operation can truncate the transaction log.
So log is not full, why 9002 error is encounterd. and why the log_reuse_wait_desc return 'CHECKPOINT'?
I list my code:
Code Snippet
create database db_test
on primary
(
name=db_test,
filename='C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDatadb_test.mdf'
)
log on
(
name=db_test_log,
filename='C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDatadb_test_log.ldf',
maxsize=2mb
)
go
create table db_test..table1(col char(8000))
--insert data to fill up the database log
declare @n int
set @n=0
while @n<>-1
begin
insert into db_test..table1 values(replicate('a',8000))
end
any suggestions?
thanks in advance.
