Error: The Backup Of The File Or Filegroup Sysft_XXXX_FT Is Not Permitted Because It Is Not Online
Aug 22, 2006
Hi There,
I am trying to do a full back up of a user database which has full text indexing on it. I use the maintenance plan wizard to set up a full backup. For some reason, I get this error.
=================
Executing the query "BACKUP DATABASE [XXXX] TO [XXXX]
WITH NOFORMAT, NOINIT, NAME = N'XXXX_backup_20060819040020', SKIP, REWIND, NOUNLOAD, STATS = 10
" failed with the following error:
"The backup of the file or filegroup "sysft_XXXX_FT" is not permitted because it is not online.
BACKUP can be performed by using the FILEGROUP or FILE clauses
to restrict the selection to include only online data.
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.
my full backup job failed and it's giving me the below error message on the backup job for MSCRM database. If I start the job manually if I remove the full-text index on the table, the job ran succesfully.
The backup of the file or filegroup "sysft_ftcat_documentindex" is not permitted because it is not online. BACKUP can be performed by using the FILEGROUP or FILE clauses to restrict the selection to include only online data. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 3007) BACKUP DATABASE is terminating abnormally. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 3013)
I am looking at the file / filegroup level backup and recovery options within SQL Server and I'm struggling with the following concept.
Books online assures me that it is possible to perform a file restore whilst the database is in the simple recovery model.
So I have set up a database with two separate file groups, a read/write primary and a read only "secondary". Each filegroup has 2 underlying data files.
I have then created a "live" customers tables within the primary filegroup and assigned my existing "archive" customers tables within the secondary filegroup.
If I try to perform a file or filegroup level backup within management studio, those options are greyed out. I can only perform a database backup.
If I switch back to the full recovery model, the options are no longer greyed out.
So my question is this, is file level backup and recovery actually supported in the simple user model, do you have to perform this task outside of management studio, or (as is likely) am I missing something crucial?
I've done some programming before, but i'm pretty much a novice in C#. I recently installed Visual Studio 2008 Express Edition. For some reason, when i came to a point to make a connection with an SQL Sample database "NORTHWIND.SDF".... An error message show up saying "access to database file is not permitted". What causes it.???
Hi Everyone, I've run into a problem I have not seen before, and a Google search did not turn up any useful info. So, I'm back to ask for help here! I have created an INSERT statement and several columns are boolean. When I try to execute the INSERT, I get the following error: The name "False" is not permitted in this context. Valid expressions are constants, constant expressions, and (in some contexts) variables. Column names are not permitted. I've found that this is Error MSG 128. Also, I'm executing the command as a transaction. The first command is a DELETE followed by an INSERT. The DELETE is working fine, but the INSERT is causing this error. Here is the code for assembling the 2 SQL statements. string[] SQLCommands = new string[RecordCount+1]; int SQLCount = 0; StringBuilder stb = new StringBuilder();
stb.Append("DELETE FROM UserRights WHERE UserIDPtr = '"); stb.Append(TargetUserID);// Guid value stb.Append("';"); SQLCommands[SQLCount++] = stb.ToString(); stb.Remove(0, stb.Length);
foreach (MyApp.UserRightsRow row in TargetUserRights) { stb.Append("INSERT INTO [UserRights] "); stb.Append("([UserIDPtr], [AllCustomersFlag], [Customer], [CustomerFlag], [Region], [RegionFlag], [Plant], [PlantFlag], "); stb.Append("[Building], [BuildingFlag], [Area], [AreaFlag], [Active], [UpdatedBy], [Updated]) "); stb.Append("VALUES ('"); stb.Append(row.UserIDPtr);// Guid value stb.Append("', "); stb.Append(row.AllCustomersFlag.ToString());// bit stb.Append(", "); stb.Append(row.Customer.ToString());// int stb.Append(", "); stb.Append(row.CustomerFlag.ToString());// bit stb.Append(", "); stb.Append(row.Region.ToString());// int stb.Append(", "); stb.Append(row.RegionFlag.ToString());// bit stb.Append(", "); stb.Append(row.Plant.ToString());// int stb.Append(", "); stb.Append(row.PlantFlag.ToString());// bit stb.Append(", "); stb.Append(row.Building.ToString());// int stb.Append(", "); stb.Append(row.BuildingFlag.ToString());// bit stb.Append(", "); stb.Append(row.Area.ToString());// int stb.Append(", "); stb.Append(row.AreaFlag.ToString());// bit stb.Append(", "); stb.Append(row.Active.ToString());// bit stb.Append(", '"); stb.Append(row.UpdatedBy);// Guid value stb.Append("', "); stb.Append(row.Updated);// DateTime value stb.Append("); ");
SQLCommands[SQLCount++] = stb.ToString(); stb.Remove(0, stb.Length); } The method that performs the SQL Transaction is: public bool DoTransaction(string[] SQLStatements) { int i; int SQLStatementCount = SQLStatements.Length;
using (SqlConnection MyConnection = new SqlConnection(System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings.Get("cnMyApp"))) { using (SqlCommand command = MyConnection.CreateCommand()) { SqlTransaction transaction = null;
try { MyConnection.Open();
transaction = MyConnection.BeginTransaction();
command.Transaction = transaction;
for (i = 0; i < SQLStatementCount; i++) { command.CommandText = SQLStatements[i].ToString(); command.ExecuteNonQuery(); }
transaction.Commit(); return true; } catch { transaction.Rollback(); throw; } finally { MyConnection.Close(); } } } } Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!
Can someone share with me their experience or thougts on whether it is better to : 1) backup db to the disk first, then to the tape OR 2) use online backup which backup the database on realtime basis to the tape.
Dear Friends,I don't know anybody has asked this question before or not.But I needa support urgently.How to take online backup in MS Sql server 2000.ThanksArijit Chatterjee
Is it possible to back up one filegroup independently from the second when tables in one group have foreign key relationships with tables in the second group?
Hi.. I tried to setup MSSQL2000 trans replicatiom using push subscription method. My Publisher is also my distributor. But whenever I started the dstribution agent, I got the following error. It has problem connecting to subscriber's DB with the following error. I had tried that the login is 100% fine. But why this error appear ? Any help?

Hi all, I have an application running on internet, it uses SQL server datatase. I have an question want to as: can i backup database and update database online or offline? Thanks. TungNT
My intention is to make a copy of a database with some data excluded. One way to do this:
- Make a copy-only backup of the source database - Restore the backup as a new database - Delete undesired data from the new database
In my case, the source database has two file groups, primary and secondary. The secondary has just one table with huge amount of data and this file group appears as one physical file. Is there any way to make a partial backup, which does not include this file group or table, and it would still be possible to restore the backup to a new database? My point is to avoid copying huge amount of data if it won't be needed.
Our current application which is deployed to numerous client sites usually requires the database to be returned to us to upgrade for the next release. The current process is:
- Perform a full backup at the client site - Send the backup to us for upgrade - Perform a full restore process to our local db server - Modify the database - Perform a full backup - Send the backup to the client - Perform a full restore over the original database.
This has served our purposes so far, however, we are about to introduce functionality that will enable the client to upload files for storing in the database.
To manage this we have a single DBFiles table which due to the potential size of it’s contents we determined that it would be best to store it in it’s own FileGroup. The idea being that then we could backup just the Primary FileGroup for returning to our offices as the DBFiles table would remain untouched.
The proposed process would now be:
- Perform a partial backup of the primary filegroup at the client site - Perform a partial backup of the DBFiles filegroup at the client site. This only ever stays at the client site and is never restored at our office. - Send the primary filegroup backup to our office for upgrade - Perform a partial restore or the primary filegroup to our local db server. This will leave the DBFiles filegroup offline which is OK as we do not need to change it. - Modify the database - Perform a partial backup of the primary filegroup - Send the partial backup to the client - Perform a partial restore of the primary filegroup over the original database. This will leave the DBFiles filegroup offline. - Perform a partial restore of the DBFiles filegroup over the original database.
This last step results in the recovery failing due to a reason like “The roll forward start point is now at log sequence number (LSN) 66787000000001800001. Additional roll forward past LSN 66787000000008900001 is required to complete the restore sequence�.
I have tried a number of variations including backing up both the client and local log files for recovery and using copy_only but I have yet to be able to successfully complete the process. Is there a means we can synchronize these 2 backup files without worrying about the logs for this part of the process?
Our requirements are basically to be able to perform a partial backup and exclude the DBFiles table as it is likely to be very large so we can send it back to our offices for upgrade and then return it to the client for restoring back to the original database while maintaining the data in the clients DBFiles filegroup and table.
Any guidance on what we need to change or a better process would be appreciated.
I am new to DBA activities. I have a database name Sample_DB in SQL Server 2014. Â
This database has below files
LogicalName FileType FileGroup Sample_DB_Rows  ROWS Data PRIMARY Sample_DB_C1 ROWS Data Country1 Sample_DB_C2 ROWS Data Country2 Sample_DB_Docs FILESTREAM Data FileGroupForDoc
My database has 3 tables namely Tbl1, Tbl2 and Tbl3.
Tbl1 data stored in primary file group Tbl2 is partitioned based on a key column CountryId and stored in respective filegroup Tbl3 is enabled to store documents, files etc., and its data will be stored in filestream enabled filegroup.
Problem: I need to take backup of each file group separately. I need to restore the backed up file group separately. Is this possible, how to do it.
We have SQL cluster installed on top of windows cluster on VM environment. Node1 and Node2 under Windows Failover Cluster. SQL instance is currently on node2 the instance is up and running, but SQL Cluster service remains online pending and it restarts the instance on every 5 minutes.
SQL Browser service are running successfully.TCP/IP ports are enabled and configured.If we start the SQL server agent it is on for seconds and stopped immediately  .Cluster Service is attempt to connect to the SQL service every few minutes (setting in SQL cluster resource) for the IsAlive check, if this fails then the SQL resource is restarted even if the instance was online. Hope this is what happening exactly.

In SQL Server 2005, via the GUI, I wish to backup a database to an additional disk file (there is already an existing backup disk file for this database), so that I can have more than one backup. I've added the new disk file name, highlighted it, and clicked OK.
I get an immediate error (see below). Note, the 2nd error message is specifying the existing backup disk file, not the new one I'm attempting to create.
"Backup failed for Server 'WCS-DEV-TPA'. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)"

Does anyone know what causes this and how to correct it?
I have backup my database with "file and filegroup"selected. I have dropped my database by accident. is it possible to restore my data back from "file and filegroup".bak??
A full database backup file was created and placed in my C:Program filesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLBackup folder. In attempting to restore the file using "Restore Database", I get the following error: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: Directory lookup for the file "d:Microsoft SQL ServerMSSQLdataworkspace.mdf" failed with the operating system error 3 (The system could not find the file path specified.).
Is there anyway to backup the current online log after complete loss of the current correponding datafile?
Example:
(2) Logical Disk Volumes
Disk 1 (D:) contains pubs_data.mdf Disk 2 (E:) contains pubs_log.ldf
Disk 1 becomes corrupt and goes offline leaving the the database pubs in a suspect state. Is backup of the current online log pubs_log.ldf possible? If a backup of the log is not possible are there any other restoration methods that can be used to bring this database back online, rescuing as much information as possible from the current online log pubs_log.ldf.
I am running SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition, i want to split my data and indexes on different drives.
In 2000 i had to recreate clustered indexes and non clustered indexes on the correct filegroups to accomplish this.
In 2005 i see there is a ALTER TABLE MOVE TO Filegroup option, thats cool.
Does this effectively do the same as rebuilding the clustered index on the new filegroup? Will this leave the other indexes of the table on the primay filegroup or move them as well ?
If i wanted to also move the non clustered indexes is there a better way to move them that drop and re-create on the new filegroup in 2005, i see the ALTER INDEX statement does not support a move to filegroup option.
In a nutshell what is the best/easiest way to move exisitng table data and indexes to new file groups in Sql Server 2005 Enterprise Edition?
It's OS / SQL related. I backup to a UNC device, and frequently get a network related error - but not always. And the error is also OS related...
The scene: 64 bit Windows Server 2008 hosts 64 bit SQL 2008 Standard, and devices are created to point to 64 Server 2008 Server B (ServerBSQL_backupsdvc_DB.bak). The database is backed up daily, on a job, and when run the following error is returned:
Date2009/08/08 06:43:30 AM LogJob History (Backup_AssetData_2009-08-08)

[SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 3013). The step failed.
The file is generated, the same size as a successful backup, but the job terminates unsuccessful.I have tried to delete the devices' file, and then the backup usually succeeds. This may point to a permissions' type error, but the user the job is run under is a domain admin. The destination server is not unavailable during this time, and the network shares also remain active throughout the excersize - although I haven't got a way to "prove" this.
I have a few databases that backup to the UNC described above (different files) that don't fail..My SQL2000 server backs up it's databases to the SQL2008 server, and those backups don't fail with this error.
My research has led me to understand that the 64bit OS tries to buffer the files it receives from another server, and I was wondering if this could be influencing the backups as the destination server is also 64 bit Windows Server 2008.
##20090812## UPDATE
I tried another way to do the backup; with the same results:
Backup database Infovest to disk = ' iscsrv-dcm04 iscsrv-sql01_backupsdvc_Infovest_Z.bak' with INIT,STATS=1
Does anyone have any great suggestions on how I can import an online XML file into an SQL 2005 table?
So far I tried to accomplish it with SSIS Data Flow Task where my source is XML Source (Data access mode: XML file location; XML location: URL, Use inline schema = True). This set up properly identified the columns to be imported.
I used Copy Column data flow transformation task to load data to OLE DB destination table that has same structure.
When I run the task it does execute with no errors, however the table remains empty. It looks like I am failing to read the actual data.
Do you have any suggestions? I am willing to go around this approach with stored procs/com/you name it €“ just make it work!
I am running a copy object DTS and consistently get the error 'cannot allocate space for <objectname> because the primary filegroup is full.
I've got auto-grow on with unliminted growth. There is more than enough space on our Data and Log file disks. I haven't reached teh 32TB limit of the filegroup size by any stretch of the imagination. The source datbase is 250mb yet even when I create the destination DB at 300mb I still get the error!
Also, I tried creating a secondary filegroup and this didn't help, either.
Could not allocate space for object 'dw_MasterClaim_ProcLine' in database 'fl1stDwProd2' because the 'PRIMARY' filegroup is full..
I have two db's prod1 and prod2. I looked at the properties of each. On the tab Data Files both of these have the same file name (prod2). One has 5897 space allocated and the other 13162. Not sure why they are like this or even if it's correct. Could this be my problem? If so, how can I fix?
I have just added a 500G USB drive. I have created a DB on it and am attempting to export data to it. The problem is I keep getting:
Could not allocate space for object 'dbo.Matched' in database 'MyDBK' because the 'PRIMARY' filegroup is full. Create disk space by deleting unneeded files, dropping objects in the filegroup, adding additional files to the filegroup, or setting autogrowth on for existing files in the filegroup
The drive is empty so there is plenty of room. How do I set auto gro or something so this error goes away?
I am using VB with Visual Studio Express. I am new to these tools. I have SQL Server 2005 Express installed on my machine. I think that I have the right version. I am just using Express for taking classes and teaching myself on my machine. When I follow the examples in the book, I keep getting this error when I go to my ASP.NET configuration and click on the security tab to add myself as a user. "There is a problem with your selected data store. This can be caused by an invalid server name or credentials, or by insufficient permission. It can also be caused by the role manager feature not being enabled. Click the button below to be redirected to a page where you can choose a new data store. The following message may help in diagnosing the problem: The database filename can not contain the following 3 characters: [ (open square brace), ] (close square brace) and ' (single quote) " -- end of erro msg. I have an apostrophe in my last name. Could that be what is causing it? Is it creating a db based on my name or something? Or do I have the wrong version of SQL Server Express installed. Thank you for any help. I appreciate it.
I keep getting the "primary filegroup is full" error when ever I try to write data even though the following things are true:

SQL shows the database has 2% free space but any attempts to write cause the error, shrinking drops this to 1% but still produces the same error on writes
SQL shows the transaction log has 90% free space

I did a file group backup and restore of a database and then when I tried to perform a full backup I am getting the above error. Any thoughts. I indeed happen to see this error http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/921106 but not sure if both errors are the same.
I need to load a table with 820,000 records from a Sybase db via DTS. It always fail with the error: "Error at destination for row number 820000. Could not allocate space for object in tablespace tempdb . The default filegroup is full.".
There is only the primary filegroup defined in the db. I've increased the size from 1.5GB to 2GB, and specify that it shd grow automatically by 10% and there's no limit to the size. There is still some 28GB in the server, so it should be fine.
It still fail so I added another file to the primary filegroup with size 100MB. Again, it failed with the same error msg.
