New to Database Mirroring and I have a question about the Principal database server. I have a Database Mirroring setup configured for High-safety with automatic fail over mode using a witness.
When a fail over occurs because of a lost of communication between the principal and mirror, the mirror server takes on the roll of Principal. When communication is returned to the Principal server, at some point does the database that was the previous Principal database automatically go back to being the Principal server?

Hi
I
have created a job to backup all our database. It works fine and
creates .bak files in default folder. I have scheduled the task to run
every 4 hours.
My question is how can i modify or program this
backup plan to keep the backup files for only last 3 days and delete
older backup files?

I am trying to figure out how the back up is performed on my sql as I seem to have quite a few very large BAK files that I want to know if I can delete them.
These files have grown to about 85Gs
The IT group told me that the were going to set up the SQL to back up as a file and then SBS 2003 would back up this file onto the USB drive. The IT people that set this up have really sold me a lot of BS about so much that I have decided to get control of all aspect of the SBS2003.
How to I verify that the SQL is being backed up and can I delete these really big old dated BAK files?
Thanks Kevin..

SQL7: After doing a full backup Enterprise
Admin still shows "Transaction log space"
in use. Isn't it that way that full backup
releases all space formerly used by
log files?

I'm having a problem with a Maintenance Plan created for SQL Server 2005 using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio. See version information at the bottom of this post.
I have a Maintenance Plan using the "Back Up Database Task" that is set to perform a "Full" back up of "All Databases" on the local server. However, it appears that the list of "All databases" are hard-coded to be those databases that were available at the time the task was created. It seems any newly created databases don't appear to be in the list. If I attempt to edit the task and select the "These databases:" option, the newly created databases aren't even in the list.
Is there some way to have the task refresh the list of the databases available for backup? Ideally, I'd like any newly created databases to get backed up automatically without having to modify the task.
Thanks for your help,
Jonathan.

Hello,I'm trying to create a simple back up in the SQL Maintenance Plan that willmake a single back up copy of all database every night at 10 pm. I'd likethe previous nights file to be overwritten, so there will be only a singleback up file for each database (tape back up runs every night, so each daysback up will be saved on tape).Every night the maintenance plan makes a back up of all the databases to anew file with a datetime stamp, meaning the previous nights file stillexists. Even when I check "Remove files older than 22 hours" the previousnights file still exists. Is there any way to create a back up file withoutthe date time stamp so it overwrites the previous nights file?Thanks!Rick

I had to transfer my database from one server to another. Both are running SQL 2000. I backed the database up and moved it to the new server however when I try to do a restore I get the following message:
The media set for database "xxx' has 2 family members but only 1 are provided. RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.
I did some searching and found a couple of posts that mentioned something about the back up including 2 files.
My problem is that the machine I backed this up from crashed when it was shut down and would not reboot so all of the data and the original database do not exist. Is there any hope of restoring this database. It is pretty critical.
Thanks,
Melissa :-)

I am trying to pass a datename in to a database backup. The date is to be retrieved from the 'monthname' column which is stored in the 'tblbill' table. I have included my ridiculous bit of code below (which funnily enough does not work!!) just so that you can see what I am trying to do. Can anyone help?
DECLARE @name varchar(10)
backup database Bill to Disk ='c:@name.dat' with init
@name =select distinct monthname from tblbill where monthname is not null

I'm new at this so I apologize in advance for my ignorance.
I'm creating a website that collects dates in a calendar control (from Peter Blum). When the page containing the control loads it populates the calendar with dates from the database (that have previously been selected by the user). The user then can delete existing dates and/or add new dates.
I create a dataset when the page loads and use it to populate the calendar. When the user finishes adding and deleting dates in the calendar control I delete the original dates from the dataset and then write the new dates to the dataset. I then give execute the data adapter update command to load the contents of the dataset back into the database. This command involves using parameterized queries. For example the Insert command is:
Dim cmdInsert As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand("INSERT INTO Requests VALUES(@fkPlayerIDNumber, @RequestDate, @PostDate, @fkGroupID)", conn)
cmdInsert.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@fkPlayerIDNumber", SqlDbType.Int))
cmdInsert.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@RequestDate", SqlDbType.DateTime))
cmdInsert.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@PostDate", SqlDbType.DateTime))
cmdInsert.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@fkGroupID", SqlDbType.Int))
da.InsertCommand = cmdInsert
The update command is:
da.Update(ds, "Requests")
When I run the program I get the following error:
Parameterized Query '(@fkPlayerIDNumber int,@RequestDate datetime,@PostDate datetime,' expects parameter @fkPlayerIDNumber, which was not supplied.
I've used debug print to establish that the table in the dataset contains what it should.
I would be more than grateful for any suggestions.

I can backup this key using something like:
BACKUP MASTER KEY TO FILE = 'c:TestEncryptionMasterKey.key'
ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = '23'
but why would I need to do it as the DBMK is stored in the databases itself ( in sys.symmetric_keys) and we dump all databases nightly. Just "in case"?
TIA,
