Failure Of Diff Backup Of Master Database
Mar 25, 2008
Hello,
My master database (MS SQL 2005) has simple recovery model, however, when performing diff backup of "all databases", I am getting the following error:
Executing the query "BACKUP DATABASE [master] TO DISK = N'X:\Database Backups\diff backups\master\master_backup_200803251235.bak' WITH DIFFERENTIAL , NOFORMAT, NOINIT, NAME = N'master_backup_20080325123514', SKIP, REWIND, NOUNLOAD, STATS = 10
" failed with the following error: "You can only perform a full backup of the master database. Use BACKUP DATABASE to back up the entire master database.
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.
If I choose to back up only "All user databases", then it performs just fine. Why I cannot run diff backup of master?

I am interested to hear if people think it would be a good idea to movethe Master & TempDB to a different HD.Here is my DB Server's set up:1. Processor: (1) AMD XP 28002. 1st HD (IDE 0) is the system & boot drive3. (3) SCSI HD make up a hardware RAID level 0 (striped withoutparity)solution - these striped drives are just for my working DBs4. (1) SCSI HD that's not doing anything.I want to put the Master & TempDB on the SCSI HD that's not doinganything. Would that be the best place for it for maximum performance orshould I put in the striped array. I am leaning more towards putting onthe SCSI HD that's not doing anything. What do you all think?Ed*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!

Can i restore a diff. backup alone without a complete backup?
(what i am trying is this.....there are two different servers at two diff. places....i need to have both servers in sync. at all times.modifications will take place in one server and the modifications have to be reflected in the other server.i could not go for replication as the servers cannot be connected.sending complete backups daily will be a overhead .hence planning to take complete backup once and send diff. backups alone on subsequent days to the other server.
how can i achieve this?)

Dear all
I am new to the MS SQL, my problem is as follows.
I am having a online database on sql 2k.
every 15 days we have to give payout from our system, so we
have a offline server in our office, we take the complete backup of that day & restore the same on the offline server,
& start the payout process.
The problem is that the full backup is a big file & take a lot of time for downloading from online server.
is it possible that we take on diff. backup of that day & will restore the same on the offline server so the file will take less time to download.
but my offline backup is 15 days old, will that update all the records or not?
regards
Abhijit

In playing with differential backups, i have taken a full last night, 17GB, took my first diff today 16.5GB, took another diff right after, it was still 16.5GB, took another diff right after 16.5 GB. This database has 0 activity during the day, the import takes place @ night, and select's are done to it during the day. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I have a handful of jobs that I need to troubleshoot, but this one will hopefully give me enough insight to do the rest myself. I need to figure out why a Maintenance Plan that performs a Diff Backup on 4 databases, and then a transaction log back up on the 4 databases is failing. I just get the following error message, and I cannot tell what failed.

Friends,
I have taken backup of a database, of which Data (MDF) & Log (LDF) files are located on "E:...." directory.
Now, I am using the same backup file to restore on another PC which is having no partitions at all. I mean now I have to restore the database using same backup file, of which Data & Log files should be located on "C:...." directory only, as it has no partitions.
This restore process gives me error :
Restore failed for Server 'HSVMMICROFIT'.
Details : System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The operating system returned the error '5(Access is denied.)' while attempting 'RestoreContainer::ValidateTargetForCreation' on 'C:Program FilesMicroFitHealthStar v6.0 Server EditionDataMICROFIT_HealthStar_Data.mdf'.
What is to be done, in order to restore the database from the same back up file successfully, regardless whether the original physical location of the MDF & LDF file, is existing on current PC ??????????????
Please try to solve the same for me.... W8ing...

SQL Server 2000 sp3 Enterprise (8.00.818) running on W2K Adv Server cluster.
DB's and backups resided on a fibre SAN attached IBM FAStT 500 storage controller.
I had problems with random restore failures, getting errors such as "3270 Internal Consistency Error" on log restores or on full restores after reporting problems with some of the files. This was fixed (we thought) by disabling the read caching on the FAStT 500 storage controller, per Microsoft's recommendation.
We have a custom-written log shipping solution that maintains a 2nd copy of our user DB on the same system, so there's 700+ backups/restores of various types in the course of a week. After two months of error-free operation, we just got another Internal Consistency Error, but this time on a differential restore, which was a first. Looking back, we realized we were running a DBCC INDEXDEFRAG command on the source DB at the time the differential backup was running. Taking a new differential and using it in the restore sequence worked fine, so clearly the problem was in the first diff backup file.
Anybody else noticed any problems with running DBCC INDEXDEFRAG at the same time as a differntial backup?

I need to copy the last differential backup file from the production server directory to a data warehouse server directory. There are 3 differential backup files on the directory and I need to grab the latest one. I have the following syntax which work from a batch file but it does not work when I put it into a job step as a cmd even though I remove the double %% to only one %.
echo @off
set path1="192.29.305.213$SqlserverProductionBa ckupsKBR_PROD"
set path2=K:SqlserverDatawarehouseBackupPROD
for /f "tokens=*" %%a in ('dir /b /a-d /o-d "%path1%DIFF*.bak"') do copy "%path1%\%%~a" "%path2%" & goto nextstep
:nextstep
Echo File Copied.
Even when I change it to (only one % for the variable),
for /f "tokens=*" %a in ('dir /b /a-d /o-d "%path1%DIFF*.bak"') do copy "%path1%\%~a" "%path2%"
It does not work..........It runs successfully but no file is copied or I get

Are there any tools/utilties that can diff 2 sql server databases. I know the DB Pro Edition of VSTS can do it, but its hard to justify a jump from my $800 copy of VS2005 Pro to a $5k-6k version of VS just to get database diff. The tablediff looks promising but I need it to do SPROCS and SFUNCS too. Any helps or recommendations would be appreciated.

Hi,
Server: Msg 4212, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot back up the log of the master database. Use BACKUP DATABASE instead.
The recovery mode is set to full. Why am I not able to back up the log of master?

I got a quick question.
My database size has reached the limit of the drive, one option is to
add a new database device on a different drive, then expand in across
2 drives.
Anything I have to concern for a database on 2 database device on 2 logical drives (recoverability or ...?) compared to maybe another option:
reformat the whole disk and allocated more space to the original drive and recover (since in my case, all disk space have been formated) from backup....

Environment: 2 different SQL 2000 servers both with service Pack 1 installed. OS is NT5/Windows 2000 server. Dell 4300 dual processor Servers.
Problem: When I create a maintenance plan to backup the system databases only the model will be backed up. (The model & the msdb are skipped). This occurs whether I select the 'System Databases Only' option, or whether I explicitly select each individual database (from the first page of the Create New Maint Plan Wizard). I can back up the master and msdb manually. But, I cannot get it done through creating a maintenance plan. I find nothing in the SQL Errorlog to explain why this is failing.
Do you have a solution? Even any suggestions? Most appreciated!

Currently, I have set up maintenance plan to backup all the databases and I am only the most recent copies. This works very good for me on most of the databases. However, I am having a potential problem with backing up master database.
Based on what I know, I cannot perform a restore on master database. So I am wondering if anyone is able to advise me on a good method to backup the master database and restore it when it needs to be.
Thank you.

We run a script to check the blocking issues every morning. We find a LogBack up job for master db running everyday. But the Backup team doesn't see it on their systems. The backup team says, they are not running any backup job . But this backup job shows up in the process Info. So, we manually kill it everyday. It takes a lot of wait time. We can't find where it comes from ?

Hi,
On a large production SQL servers how often should the Master and MSDB Backups be performed?
We currently do one every night but I am thinking this is overkill, would once a week be sufficient?

My backup plan is as follows (SQL2K5)
Weekly full
Daily diff
Hourly log
Hourly log fails daily at particular time with following error -
BACKUP LOG cannot be performed because there is no current database backup.
It works , once I kick off a FULL backup.
I feel there is some activity which disqualifies the log sequence. Any thoughts?

Hello All,
I have created a Maintenance plan using Wizard, In this plan I am doing full backup of 12 DBs to share drive, I created only one step as full backup. And Scheduled this at 7 pm everyday, the
following is the error I am getting in the Logfile, can some one please through some light on this.
" failed with the following error: "Cannot open backup device
\shq-ss2sql backupSQL_PRODDBWorkFlow_backup_200708291911.bak. Operating
system error 5(Access is denied.).
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.
SQL Server Instance and SQL Agent are running under domain admin account, Share Drive folder has full control by domain admin.
I am the local admin on the SQL Server box, and I have read, write and delete, create permissions on the share drive for backups folder.
What must be the issue?

I am trying to replicate our production SQL 6.5 environment on an isolated network for Y2K testing. I have installed SQL 6.5 on the test server, then ran sp_help_revdatabase on the production server to generate scripts for recreating the databases for testing. I used a zip drive to move dumps of the user databases from production to test. I now need to move over data from the master db, to recreate security and logins. But I don't think I can simply do a dump and restore, as I am not creating copies of all the production databases from our production server, just a few of them. Does anyone have a suggestion for a procedure to replicate the info I need from our production master database? Am I correct that restoring a dump of our production master database to the Y2K environment would be inappropriate?
Please advise.
Thanks,
