Disaster Recovery Server For Reporting Services
Nov 28, 2007
Folks:
Is it possible to setup a Disaster Recovery server for Reporting services (Databases: ReportServer and ReportServerTempDB)? If so, will loading these 2 databases (Log shipping) allow to me access the same reports as in Production server. Is there anything which I have to do on DR Server when the Production site is down?
Thanks!
Recovery :: Server Local High Availability Using Failover Cluster And Disaster Recovery Using AlwaysOn
Aug 17, 2015We have a requirement to build SQL environment which will give us local high availability and disaster recovery to second site. We have two sites- Site A & Site B. We are planning to have two nodes at Site A and 2 nodes at Site B. All four nodes will be part of same Windows failover cluster. We will build two SQL Cluster, InstanceA will be clustered between the nodes at Site A Server and InstanceB will be clustered between the nodes at Site B, we will enable Always On Between the InstanceA and InstanceB and will be primary owner where data will be written on InstanceA and will be replicated to InstaceB. URL....Now we want we will have instanceC on the Site B and data will be writen from the application available on Site B, will be replicated to the instance on the Site A as replica.

Feb 23, 2004Hello,
I have a problem. I am trying to set up a disaster recovery plan and have ran into some problems. Just so you are aware, we have tried setting up replication but it failed since the database does not have primary keys(don't ask--I have no control) and we have tried to set up log shipping but we do not have the Enterprise version of SQL server so that won't work. The database is over 200GB so shipping by tape or transferring full backups across the wire is impractical. So basically my question is - "What other options can we explore for setting up disaster recovery that do not involve 'substantial' expenditures?"
There is a direct connection set up between the off site data store.
Thanks

A test server I was developing on has died and all of my good work was on it.
However I have a copy of the Data folder containing the folloing files:

Is it possible to restore my database from these files?
If so how would I go about it?
Many thanks in advance!
Disaster Recovery Beyond SQL.
Dec 23, 2002I'm looking for something beyond trying to recover databases and/or SQLServer. My group has been tasked with documenting the recovery for 30+ servers that make up our applications infrastructure including SQL, Web, etc. I posted this here as opposed to another forum because I couldn't even find disaster recovery related topics in the other forums.
Our Systems group (Lan, Wan, etc.) isn't really much help at all. Their focus is more on the mainframe and Novell network recovery. Their perspective is that they will get any replacement server back on line in the event of failure but we are on our own from there.
There are three disaster scenarios for which we must plan: 1) A 737 does a nose dive into the Data Center. 2) A hurricane floods the Data Center. 3) A server gets smoked for whatever reason and is no longer useable.
Assume...
- that there were enough survivors to rebuild the network infrastructure at a remote site.
- we have to recover the operating system, additional software, IIS, SQL, applications, etc.
Questions:
What's the best way to capture the server's configuration on an automated basis?
What's the best way to recover the configuration mentioned above?
How do you maintain a current snapshot of any particular server and how do you ensure there's a documented history of the changes?
Does anybody use a centralized backup system? OmniBack, BackupExec?
What's the best/fastest way to get the replacement equipment?
Where else can I look to find this information?
Have I asked all the questions that I should or can you think of one I've missed?
Confused? Ask any questions you wish.

Disaster Recovery
Mar 17, 2004Yikes! I lost my autoloader bakcup device along with my SQL2K Server. I reinstalled Win2k and now can see my RAID partitions where I had SQL server installed, along with all of the files. Since my tape backup is dead, I cannot simply restore from media. I'd like to reinstall SQL Server and then somehow grab the files on the partition and restore all of the data back to where things were. Is this even possible? If so, could someone help me out? I am worried by reading this list that my primary application (Sharepoint) will not be able to be restored because of security issues. Any ideas on that?
I appreciate any help you can provide.

Oct 30, 2007Hi Experts,
I am planning to create a disaster recovery site for my production database server. But I am not able to identify which option to choose. Not sure if I should go with database mirroring or transactional replication.
What are the pros and cons of each option?
Production and disaster recovery site location will be geographically very far.
please help

Feb 25, 2008I'm looking for a proven method and documenation on recovering a publisher that is also the distributor. I have had problems with subscribers failing and database corruption on subscribtion databases. I do not have any documentation or experience in recovering a publisher that also is it's own distributor. Please point me in the right direction for this and any in house documentation that may not be published to the public would be great.

Disaster Recovery On SQL Server
Jan 15, 2001Recently I watched Microsoft Support WebCast: Microsoft SQL Server 7.0 Common Problems and Resolutions dated August 29, 2000. I am trying to find information for a total disaster recovery for my server. In the webcast the presenter made a reference to a Microsoft article Q240872, "How to Resolve Permission Issues When a Database is Moved Between SQL Servers?". I can't find this article. Since we are working with the scenerio of total diaster, we are starting with a new server. I know that when we tried to recover a database to a new server, the server recognized that the database did not originate on that server. Does anyone have any ideas? Or does anyone know how to contact Microsoft so I can find out how to get a copy of this article?
Thanks!

Disaster Recovery & Replication In SS7
Mar 14, 2000We have the following situation. Box A is publisher & Box B is a DR box that is a subscriber to Box A keeping it in line with Box A. If Box A goes down Box B then becomes the 'live' box. I assume I have to do nothing to Box B to allow this to happen but if I'm wrong please let me know. My question is :- Once Box A is back online how do I get the data from Box B onto Box A so that Box A can be made the 'live' box again?

SSIS Server Disaster Recovery
Mar 15, 2007We have 10 SSIS packages which are deployed on 2 servers. (at different geographical locations)
On both the servers we will install all the 10 packages, but on server1 we will enable 1 - 5 and server2 we will enable 6 to 10.
the idea is that if server1 goes down we enable all the 10 on server2 (and vise-versa).
Is this the best way to implement disaster recovery of SSIS packages? We want that in all cases of failure the SSIS packages are ready to process the ETL: tasks.

Abhishek.

Replication Disaster Recovery-Next Identity Seeds
Jan 22, 2008We have implemented replication on SQL Server 2005 with 1 publisher and 1 snapshot (non-update) subscriber.
The purpose is for emergency disaster fail-over.
If the publisher (Primary) fails, then we switch the DNS so the subscriber (Secondary) becomes ‘live’ and we need it to be able to accept new records.
The problem is that the identity seeds start at 0 on the Secondary server - so no records can be input, as there are primary key violations.
We can set the increment value to -1 for all the seeds, and this works.
However there are config & replication issues with bringing up the database on the failed (Primary) server once it is restored and back online.
Does it really need to be this complicated?
Where are the ‘next identity seeds’ for all the tables in the database stored? Can they be restored on the database when fail-over occurs?
Or is there some setting in the Microsoft SQL Dba?

In order to run DISK REINIT I need to know the size of the database, is there any way of finding out the size of the database device, if all you have to go with is a backup dump file?
I know it won't be pretty.

Restore SQL Server Express Databases After A Disaster Recovery
Sep 15, 2006Hello,
I would like to restore SQL Server Express and its databases from a tape backup to the same server. This is a disaster recovery senario.
I backed up the Master, Model, MSDB and my own test database using SQLCMD scripts. I have no problem restoring these using task manager on the server before the disaster recovery.
However, in my real disaster recovery testing, When the server is restored by tape drive (HP one button disaster recovery), I try to run my SQLCMD restore scripts in task manager and I cannot connect to the sql server. Also I cannot connect with Management studio. I have recieved the following error in event viewer.

My question is, what is the correct procedure to follow when I want to do a disaster recovery and restore SQL Server Express from tape backup using the Simple Backup method and scripts.
Is it always required to reinstall sql server express from the original program file or is it possible to reinstall from back up tape.
I know my backup and restore scripts work because I tested them on the server before I do the disaster recovery and rebuild that server from tape.
This is some kind of issue with SQL Server Express being restored by tape backup.
Any suggestions, thanks.
SQL 2000 Server, Need Help Creating Documentation/disaster Recovery Plan...
Sep 27, 2006I currently work for a company that has had a "family business" mentality for many years. The only trouble is, it has grown into a fairly large company over the years and that mentality just doesn't cut it anymore (We have around 200 employees in 2 offices, and 25-50 remote users).
I have recently taken over the role of System Administrator, and I'm having a lot of trouble trying to get everything under wraps. There are a LOT of un-documented things happening with our database/web server, and in order to keep things safe & secure, I need to try & flesh out what those mystery settings would be. I feel that NOW is the time to get some solid documentation down, to protect my ass before some critical failure happens.
I'm wading into unknown waters here, and I'm hoping that somebody who's "been there" might have some tips to make my life a little easier.
I have an IBM Bladecenter, and a spare blade with which I can use to re-produce as close to a mirror copy of our system as possible. I have installed windows 2003 /w SQL2000 and restored a full backup of our databases and imported all database user accounts, and logins. What about Maintenance Jobs? Error Logs? Patches/Hotfixes? Service accounts? Membership roles? System databases? ODBC Sources? Services? Startup Scripts? I'm sure the list could go on & on... What are some of the crucial details I should look into?
Has anybody been in this boat before having little knowledge of what was built before you arrived, and have any insight on how to get through this without too much headache?
