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?
Taking Backup Of All User Database
Jul 3, 2013In order to take automated backup of all user databases below is the query. This query will eliminate use of manual backups for user databases, in order to fully automate this just create a SQL Agent job and write this query in the job and forget about taking any manual DB backups.
DECLARE @name VARCHAR(50) -- database name
DECLARE @path VARCHAR(256) -- path for backup files
DECLARE @fileName VARCHAR(256) -- filename for backup
DECLARE @fileDate VARCHAR(20) -- used for file name
SET @path = 'C:DB_BKPUP'

Oct 24, 2000Can 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?)
Diff Backup Help
Mar 22, 2006Dear 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

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

DB Backup From 1 PC && Restore To Diff. PC
Aug 8, 2007Friends,
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...
Problems With Diff Backup And INDEXDEFRAG?
May 14, 2004SQL 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?

Copy Latest Diff Backup From One Server To Another
Oct 9, 2014SQL Server 2012-SP2 and Windows 2008R2
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 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

SQL Backup Taking Too Long!!!
Nov 17, 2007Hi All
I am having a serious problem which I need some help with regarding our SQL Server backup.
Basically it has started to take ages (as in 48hrs +), when it should only take about 4 hrs. The database is only 380GB and up until monday our backups have not been completing. When I check the activity monitor I have seen that the 'BACKUP DATABASE' process is set to suspended with a huge wait time and the wait type is ASYNC_IO_COMPLETION.
I am not sure how to solve this, but I am going to have to!
So if anyone has any ideas please help me! If you need any othe info please let me know.

Backup Taking Longer Than Usaual On Sundays
Mar 13, 2008
Hi All,
My Full backups are taking longer than the usual time on sundays.
I know this has nothing to do with the SQl Server storage engine or Database engine.
i hvae checked there are no jobs ruuning at this time..and this across all the servers sharing the SAN.
How can prove that some thing else is reponsible for this Behvaior and not SQL server.
are there any counters (perfmon) or tools or some sniffers which can tell me what is causing this.
please help.
Thanks in advance.

Transaction Log Backup Taking A Long Time
Mar 30, 2007Hello,
I'm trying to figure out why my transaction log backup is taking up to an hour to complete. I started off with a full recovery model with a Full database back up every Sunday, differential backups every Tuesday/Thursday and log backups every 5 minutes. I would have thought that the log file backups would execute much quicker because I'm backing them up more often.
Here is my backup statement, I'm hoping I've got a wrong option that you can point out to me:
BACKUP LOG [xxxx] TO [LogFilexxxxBackups] WITH NOINIT , NOUNLOAD , NAME = N'xxxx log backup', SKIP , STATS = 10, NOFORMAT

Database Diff?
Jun 6, 2007Are there any tools/utilties that can diff 2 sql server databases.

The tablediff looks promising but I need it to do SPROCS and SFUNCS too. Any helps or recommendations would be appreciated.

Error Restoring Database With Diff & Inc Backups
Sep 10, 2007I backup a database at the begining of each month with a full and then do nightly diffs on it.
For the same database I run daily fulls and 10 minute log backups.
these two backups create / append to two different backup files.
The problem im having is that I cant restore the Differential backup set. SQL seems to restore the full just fine but alwasy throws an error when its about to start to retore the last diff. now forgive me but I clicked OK on the message and I cant find any record of the error in the logs but its something like:
"SQL cannot restore the database as the database has not been restored to the previous correct state"
is my 10 min TS log backups screwing up the DIff chain somehow?
this is really doing my head in. any help appreciated.
