How To Copy The Data From One Server To Another Server Using Sql 2000 DTS Packages
Nov 12, 2007
I am trying to copy/update a table which is in server2 based on a similar table which is in server 1. I can't use replication,
so I am thinking which are the best ways to do without affecting the performance as the source table is busy with inserts or updates. I am thinking of following options:
1. SQL server 2000 DTS packages: As I am trying to copy the data from the source table(server1) into a destination table which is a similar table in server2, if I use dts first I want to take the complete snapshot and then on I only want to copy the new transactions or updated transactions, please let me know how I can do this.
2. Does trigger affect the performance as the server1(source table) is a busy server.
Please let me know. Thanks.
Would someone help me how to Move existing Meta Data Services packages to SQL Server storage (in the msdb database) or to structured storage files before you upgrade from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005? This is a before action recommendation by Upgrade Advisor.
I am currently moving everything from SQL Server 2005 SP2 to SQL Server 2012. I have a method for getting users, logins, roles and SQL jobs. But I also have to get copy all of the SSIS packages from 2005 to 2012. I know I can go to the 2012 SQL Server and click on the MSDN folder and choose import. However, this only enables me to import one package at a time. I have 95 packages. Is there a way to get them all from the 2005 SQL Server to the 2012 SQL Server in one shot? I am not a SQL developer nor am I a DBA but I have been assigned this task.
I'm looking for a way to copy/migrate all of my SSIS packages from 1 SQL2005 server to another SQL2005 server. I see export/import options but they are for 2000 DTS packages. And it seems like I can only do this one package at a time, which is tedious. Anybody out there who's done all packages at once? Thanks!
I have a database called 'DB1' in SQL Server 2000. I want to create the same database in SQL Server 2005 Express including the original data in tables. How would I do that? I cannot find any option to do this upgrade in SQL Server Management Studio.
I am trying to copy one database from one ms sql server 2000 to another ms sql server 2005. I would like to copy all tables, stored procedures, any other objects and the data in this database to the new server. How can I do that? I can not use attach or restore database method because of permission problem. However, I can use Linked server. How can I use Linked server to do that? Any other clues?
I have a SQL Server 7.0 backend server but I am using SQL Server 2000 EM to create DTS packages. Can the DTS packages be opened in SQL Server 7.0? We are contemplating the install of SQL 2000 but we are worried that any new DTS packages created won't work when opened on a SQL Server 7.0 server or that the SQL 2000 DTS functionality is just not compatibile with SQL Server 7.0 and will cause problems.
We are converted our DTS 2000 packages to Sql Server 2005 SSIS. I am getting following error on my ActiveX script that got converted. I am new to SSIS and DTS. Never ever worked with ActiveX also. So any help would be appreciated. Following is the script followed by error I get:
Can a SSIS server, i.e. staging server be used to create packages that update SQL Server 2000 Analysis services objects on another server running SQL server 2000 OLAP?
It appears that the OLAP connection manager ion SSIS supports only connections (and thus updates) to 2005 OLAP objects. I work for a company that has a huge investment in a 3rd party DW that uses Analysis Services 2000. the DW tool vendor will not support an upgrade to SSAS 2005. We wish to extend the DW from other data sources. My thought was to use a staging server with SSIS, used solely as the ETL tool for all new development (thus no more DTS development), and to update the sql server 2000 operational data store on another box.
I can find no documentation on how to process sql server 2000 analysis services objects from within an SSIS package. Any ideas?
Is it possible to copy a database from SQL Server 2000 to a server running 7.0? The servers are part of different networks so an intermediate file must be used.
Backing up the 2000 db and attempting a restore in 7 does not work -- it did not find the database info in the file.
I have to get a copy of a SQL 2000 db over to my SQL 7 test server. I think the only way is to DTS from the SQL 2000's EM after registering the SQL 7.0 Server. Any thoughts or suggestions anyone? - Rob
I am a little embarrased to be asking this question because I know that the answer must be simple but I am still a nube at SQL. I am stuck with a simple query that copies one field of data into another. Below is the script that I am trying to execute.
UPDATE table SET field2 = field1
I get an error from SQL Server that says that the String or binary data would be truncated. I am assuming that the SQL server is trying to concatenate all the value of field1 into field2. All I am trying to do is copy the values of one field into another for each and every row in the table. Thanks in advance.

I'm a web developer who writes transact-SQL to make my web applications run properly. I'm not real strong in other areas of SQL. Let me explain our set-up and then I'll explain what I want to do:
We have an ecommerce web site and all sales are saved in a SQL Server 2008 R2 database at our hosting company. We also have a local Windows 2012 network that has SQL Server 2014 Express installed.
Here is what I want to do:
I want to copy sales rows from the SQL Server 2008 database at our hosting company and save them in the SQL Server 2014 Express database on our local Windows 2012 server. I'd like to automate this if possible so that it happens each night perhaps. I know there is a way to schedule SQL jobs but I've never actually done this. I also would need to know how to attach to our hosting company DB as well as our local network DB.
I'm pretty new to this SQL server thingie, and I have this question..
How do I copy a database from SQL Server 2000 to my local SQL Server Express? I have done this between 2000 before, but the manager for the express edition doesn't seem to have the copy task..
I really need to do this, since I have to work with a databse locally on my machine when developing...
I can't register my express server in the enterprise manager on the machine from which I need to copy the databse.. Seems to be a version incompability problem?
I have two SQL Server tables on the same server and in the same database. I'll call them table A and table B. They have identical schemas. I need to insert all rows in table A into table B. (Don't laugh - this is just for testing and long run the tables will reside on different servers.)
Can someone please tell me the correct task to use for this and the connection type I need for both the source and destination?
Ok, here is my dilemma I have an application that has many sites. Each site has it's own database. The databases have common tables (ie the name and fields are the same) What I want to be able to do is when creating a new database, I want to be able to copy certain common table data from one database to another. I have run into an error because the table have an IDENTITY so this is not working
INSERT INTO Containers SELECT * FROM ADMS2_Indian_Point.dbo.Containers
I also tried USE ADMS2_RSCS GO SET IDENTITY_INSERT Containers ON GO INSERT INTO Containers SELECT * FROM ADMS2_Indian_Point.dbo.Containers GO SET IDENTITY_INSERT Containers OFF GO
I got an error saying that I need to have a column list. I am trying to use this for any tables, so my question is this.. Is there any way to get around using a column list or is there a way to dynamically create the column list? Or, Is there a better way that I should be doing this?
Please keep in mind I am not a dba and everything I have learned about SQL is from my good pal Google :)
Is there a way to use SSIS to copy data from a SQLServer CE database to a SQL Server 2005 database?
I have a database that has only been used on a mobile device, but now I want to use it among several devices, so I want to copy the structure and data to a SQL Server 2005 database and expand it's scope.
How can I copy a table from my sql server 2000 db to my sql server 2005 express edition? I have a project in VS.NET 2005 and I have a db in App_Data folder. However, when I look into that folder, there is nothing visible. I now need to copy a table from my existing sql server 2000 to my db located in my project's App_Data folder. Any help would be appreciated..
We are running SQL 7 on a Windows NT Server. If you copy a 25Mb filefrom this machine to a W2K server, the file copy takes over 5 minuteson a 100Mpbs switched network.Copying the same file to another NT server takes only seconds, andcopying the same file to the W2K server from the 2nd NT server, (whichis not running SQL) takes only seconds also.Has anyone any ideas as to why file copying between this machine and aW2K one will take so long. It is repliacted on 5 further w2K machines.
I want to copy a table from SQL 2000 to SQL 7, that are connected though internet. Since the SQL 2000 is my web server, I don't want to touch it. Therefore, I try to create a DTS package in SQL 7 to copy the data, but fail. I cannot connect to SQL 2000, actually it is a Small Business Server 2003. However, I could connect the SQL 2000 at another computer with the Enterprise Manager that comes with SBS2003. The Enterprise Manager that comes with SQL 7 cannot register the SQL 2000.
Could anyone help me, please?
Will it be solved if I install the lastest MDAC?
Any T-SQL would work like VB's createobject("ADODB...")? Then I could write a stored procedure to do the copying.
I connect from SQL Server on Windows 2000 to Progress Database on UNIX. The database name of SQL Server is cstarsql and the name is cstarint on UNIX.
I would like to schedule to copy data from cstarint(Progress) to cstarsql(SQLServer). I did for one time, but I want to control if the data has already copied or not. If not, it will copy.
In DTS Query Builder to copy from Progress to SQL Server, SELECT * from calls WHERE call_date = TODAY The name of table of calls is the same for both database.The above calls is cstarint(Progress Database) This command is enough for one time. But I need to control if the record has already copied.
In SQL Server, I control if the record is available or not with @@FETCH_STATUS . Now I would like to mix two queries, but I couldn't. Can anybody do this?
DECLARE calls_cursor SCROLL CURSOR FOR SELECT * FROM calls WHERE call_date = TODAY
OPEN calls_cursor
-- Perform the first fetch. FETCH NEXT FROM calls_cursor
-- Check @@FETCH_STATUS to see if there are any more rows to fetch. WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0 BEGIN -- This is executed as long as the previous fetch succeeds. FETCH NEXT FROM calls_cursor END
Hi, I am trying to copy the data and tables from My server(SqlServer2000) to another Server(MSDE2000A) using DTS, after some time i am getting an Error " the login PDD Doc handler doesnot exist" failed to copy the data. How to fix this, appreciate your help Thank You
Hello, I have a sql database server (let call it server A) which has SQL program files installed on C:, and SQL data structures MSSQL (include subdirectories BAckup, DATA, FTDAT, JOBS, LOG, REPLDATA) on F:. A new server (call it server B) was cloned of server A but only at the C: partition. I still need to manually copy the SQL data structure on F: drive from A to B. The purpose of setting up server B is to test the restore of backup of server A and eventually want it to serve as the standby server should server A crashes. My questions are 1. Can MSSQL directory be copied from A to B without stopping the SQL server service on A first? 2. I will use robocopy for copying data over, what switches should I use to retain all database file security, permission, etc.. 3. Currently I can not start the SQL service on server B because part of MSSQL directory is missing from the F: drive. so theorically, after I manually copy that folder over, I should be able to start the sql service. Am I right? Is there any steps that I might have overlook here. Any errors I might encounter doing it this way
Once I can get the sql started, I can take care of the restore part. Thanks for any insights or suggestions you can provide on this.
I'm developing an application that need to create everyday information to be stored in a SQL Mobile Database.
The SQL Mobile database will have:
Last schema from tables (in SQL Server database); Last information in the tables;
I don't want to copy all the tables from SQL Server database than this mecanism should give me the way to choose the tables.
I have been reading about the SqlCeReplication but I don't undestand what is InternetUrl property. The SQL Mobile database is created in the PC and after is copy to the the Mobile Device. How can I avoid the InternetURL property?
