Hi, I was wondeing how it could be posible to export a table from a database instance to another one.
I only need the structure of the table to be imported to the new database instance. I don't need the data from the source table.
Is there any utility or scritp to do this? It will be great to import indexes and keys also.
Thanks in advance.
I want to move table from one database to another database in same instance, table should migrated with complete data,with same column data type, all constraints like PK,FK unique key, check, identity, permissions has to be there.. which is the right way to achieve this.

Hi,
I want to move one database from the source SQL Server 2000 instance to a new SQL 2000 instance in another machine. I have five user databases in this source SQL instance. How should be my approach to move this single database out of this ? My understanding is restoring this database in the new instance, copying all logins to the new instance and then copying the jobs, DTS packages, alerts, operators only specific to this database will do it. Please let me know if this is exactly what I should do ..
Thanks in advance..

I had created 2 Sql server instance in 2 servers created using VMware. From the primary server I log shipped the required databases into the secondary. Both the servers were in the same domain whose active directory was also in another server in the same virtual lab environment. My question can we have the primary sql server in one domain and the secondary sql server to which the logs are shipped in another domain by including a router also between the 2 networks for connectivity?

Their old POS computer had a hardware failure, but I was able to attach the hard-drive to another computer and recover the data. RPE uses a MSSQL database system. However, my client doesn't seem to make backups very often
- the last one is dated January 5, 2015. I was able to copy the C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server folder over which contained the instance as well as all the data files - and has up-to-date information. The instance in the recovered Microsoft SQL Server folder was called MSSQL.1. I installed the RPE software on their new computer, and it too now has an instance called MSSQL10_50.PCAMERICA. The new computer is using MSSQL 2008 R2, while I believe the old computer would have been using MSSQL 2005.
I am no DBA expert, especially when it comes to MSSQL. Is is possible to 'restore' the database from the 'raw' .mdf and .ldf files of the old computer to the new computer / database instance? If so, how should I proceed?
I need to export a database, x, of a server, X, to another database, y, of a server, Y and I need export the database schema only, not include the data.
Does anyone know how to do that?
Many thanks for replying.
In MS SQL you can create a database that is run in a seperate instance.Why and when should a database run on a seperate instance ?Benefits ?What is prefered and why?Two applications have it's own tables.Appplication A have a set of tables.Appplication B have a set of tables but also use tables from AShould it run on different databases (DbA and DbB) and instance?Or is it ok to let them use the same database (DbAB) ?

Hello everyone,
this would be my first posting.
I would like to know if it's possible in MS SQL to redirect a table into another DB instance? I have no access into the source code and I have been wondering if it is possible to make a redirection/hard link in MS SQL side.
I would have a table in my base DB and when a query is made into this table, the MS SQL would redirect it to another DB or table. Is this possible in MS SQL ? Something along the lines of a hard-link in linux.
Thank you very much.
I'm database novice and would like to get confirmation or correction on my understanding of the difference between a user under a sql server instance vs a user in a sql server database. For example, a user can be added under Instance-->Security--Login and a user can be added under Instance-->Databases-->Database Name-->Security-->Users.
Is the difference that the login under the instance is used for logging into the database via management studio and the user under the database is for database access? Also, is one dependent on the other? So if I want to add a user to the database, they have to be added to the instance first?
Hi,
Yesterday I was able to connect to the server, and now it's telling me I can't log in via the SQL Server manager.
the database has a red stop signal on it, and I'm not sure what caused this.
I did install Windows XP IIS (Internet Information Services) yesterday. Could this have caused this?
How do I get the database started again?
The error I'm getting during login attempt is this...

Hello...
Is there any way to create a new database directly as a user instance. I guess this means creating a new mdf/ldf pair which is detached from the server after its created.

Hi,
I have installed Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services
When I try to create a new DataBase (*.mdf) in Visual Studio 2005, I get an error " Unable to create user instance. This option has been disabled"
How should I overcome this issue?
I have two tables in a SQL server 2005 database. They have the same column names. I want to append older date captured in one table to the other. When I run a script to insert the data I get an identity error. Please help.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,
As per my understanding, if the user instance property is set to true for an express database then it is not multiuser/shared. A copy of the database is made for each user so he works on his private data. On the other hand, if user instance property is set to false then the express database is multiuser/shared. Thus different users will connect to the same instance of the database and changes by one user will be seen by the other users.
Now, if we use an express database with asp.net and our application is installed on IIS then it is mandatory for the express database to have the user instance property set to true. But we see that in this case when different users visit our website, the data they enter goes into the same common database, ie. all the users share the same common database, even though user instance is true for the express database.
Please shed some light to explain the correct functionality of the user instance property as related to the express database.

View 3 Replies View RelatedScenerio : To keep a very large system running optimally in a VM cluster, Take PR01 and make PR02, PR03, PR04. Distribute the 45 databases and 9T+ of disk across multiple VM guest.
Each PR## is a SQL Server 2012 Enterprise guest on a VM 5.1 cluster.
So instead of PR01 needed 16 core and 128g of memory, each one will have 4 core and 32g of memory. Making VM HA more manageable. (yes, DRS rules will apply). Also provides more HBA paths and distributes i/o over more physical disk on the SAN.
Instead of a connection string having to know PR01.dbo.UserDB01, PR02.dbo.UserDB03, ect the connection would be PRDB.dbo.UserDB01. That way if needed 1) UserDB can be moved to any of the PR## 2) new PR05, PR06 can be added as needed. The end user and processes are not allowed to touch system databases, no PR## will have a user DB called the same name.
There are seperate VM guests on other VM clusters and Citrix servers that need access to PRDB. As things expand and move around, none of the connection strings need to be changed.
I am looking into RadWare and modifing level 7 information, but that is iffy and $$$$$$.
Looking for what others have done to keep a copy of a database, for read only, on another instance. Need to do this once a day early in the morning with no, or minimal, downtime at the source and target. We have applications that access this copy 24/7, so prefer not to disconnect active users, as a detach/attach or backup/restore might do. Permissions are different on each instance, so would prefer not to overlay users on destination database. Options we are looking at right now are...
Log Shipping
Snapshot Replication
Transfer SQL Objects Task (SSIS)
Our environment for this is SQL 2012 on Windows 2012, in the same AD domain located in the same server room. The database size is 1gb. Needs to be copied around 6:30am daily. Does not need to be updated thru the day.
Hi I'm creating a database instance with the MSDE 2000 using the Command line(executing a batch File) and once the installation is finished(from the same batch file) I'm trying to attach a database to it. but the database is not attached to the database. but when I go to the sql server and register this new database and run the same command the database is attaching.
can any one suggest how to do this without going to Enterprise manager and registering the database again.

Suppose the following:
As part of a product install (using InstallShield)...
I create a SQL Server Express instance (say "X") via a silent install
I supply a script to create a database in instance X.
The idea, of course, is to have a fully automated install. But there's one problem I can't quite see how to work around:
- the CREATE DATABASE statement needs the name of a file to contain the database, and that file needs to be in a folder that belongs to the instance (e.g. Microsoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1, Microsoft SQL ServerMSSQL.2, etc).
Is there a syntactic variant that allows me to avoid this problem?
Thanks

Hi, Folks. I hate to have to come back and ask about restores right after I had to ask about Back ups, but I'm in a bind and can't seem to find other resources that address this issue.
I'm using VB Express 2005 and SQL Express 2005 to develop a windows form application that uses a User Instance of a database. With help from this forum, I was able to get the backup working. Now, I can't get the restore to work. Here's the code I'm using:
Dim SqlConnection As SqlClient.SqlConnection = New SqlClient.SqlConnection(My.Settings.NCSConnectionString)
SqlConnection.Open()
Dim ServerConnection As ServerConnection = New Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Common.ServerConnection(SqlConnection)
Dim srv As Server = New Server(ServerConnection)
'Declare a BackupDeviceItem by supplying the backup device file name in the constructor, and the type of device is a file.
Dim bdi As BackupDeviceItem
bdi = New BackupDeviceItem(My.Settings.DefaultBackUpPath & "NCS_Full_Backup1.bak", DeviceType.File)
''Define a Restore object variable.
Dim rs = New Restore
'Set the NoRecovery property to true, so the transactions are not recovered.
rs.NoRecovery = True
rs.ReplaceDatabase = True
'Add the device that contains the full database backup to the Restore object.
rs.Devices.Add(bdi)
rs.NoRecovery = False
'Specify the database name.
rs.Database = SqlConnection.Database.ToString()
'Restore the full database backup with no recovery.
rs.SqlRestore(srv)
'Inform the user that the Full Database Restore is complete.
MsgBox("Full Database Restore complete.")
The error is:
- InnerException {"RESTORE cannot process database 'C:DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGSMARCOSMY DOCUMENTSVISUAL STUDIO 2005PROJECTSWORKING COPY OF NCSNCSBINDEBUGNCS.MDF' because it is in use by this session. It is recommended that the master database be used when performing this operation.
RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally."} System.Exception
I think that I need to either free up something that's locking the database or I need to switch to the master table in the User Instance. I tried a number of variations in attempt to try both of these avenues without sucess.
I'd really appreciate any guidance that I might be able to get.
Thank you,
MF

I'm trying to export a table that contains a bit field into a text file to be used for a bulk insert into another database.
when i export the data from SQL enterprise manager, the bit field is exported as the text TRUE or FALSE ???!!!
this data then cant be bulk inserted as its not a BIT anymore.
how can bit fields be properly exported as 1 or 0 ?
is there a quick T-SQL that backup a table to a file
that it is possible to restore the data in the future to the same table ?
Thanks
