Database Restore - Logical Filename
Apr 10, 2001Hello All,
I am facing problem with Logical File Name while restoring database. I am taking a backup of ABC database from Server1 in abc.bak file.
Then I am creating new database XYZ on Server2. Server1 and Server2 are not connected to each other in anyway, since both servers belong to different companies. Here on Server2 I want to restore backup of abc.bak on XYZ database. I select restore from Device, and on option tab I am selecting Force restore over existing database, in the below option I am specifying current Data & log file path for Move to physical file name.
But Logical file name shows ABC names, but if I tried to change those to XYZ names then restore fails. But if I keep ABC names then it works.
Is anybody knows how to over come this Logical Name issue?
Many thanks in advance….
Regards,
Santosh
SQL 2012 :: Renaming Logical Filename Of A Database?
Mar 27, 2015If I run an ALTER DATABASE command that renames the Logical file name of a database, will I run into any unseen consequences in terms of day to day use of the database?

Aug 12, 2015Can two databases have same logical filenames in the same instance?
In my instance, database already exists say A.
I have to restore DB B with the same backup used for database A in the same instance.
So, once the database B is restored, A and B will have same logical fileNames.
Can I leave it as is? Or do i alter only after B is restored?
Or is there a way where I can change the logical file for B while restoring?
SQL Server 2008 :: Error Renaming Logical Filename
Feb 27, 2015I have a SQL Server 2008 R2 Cluster. I have moved a file to another drive by adding a new file on the drive, doing a shrinkfile with emptyfile. I have removed the old file and when I try to rename the new file to the old files old name, I get an error.
ALTER DATABASE mydb REMOVE FILE myfilename
Msg 5009, Level 16, State 9, Line 1
One or more files listed in the statement could not be found or could not be initialized.
ALTER DATABASE mydb
modify FILE ( NAME = temp_filename
, NEWNAME = myfilename
)
Msg 1828, Level 16, State 3, Line 4
The logical file name "myfilename" is already in use. Choose a different name.
I have completed a failover, thinking the name was being held in cache. I've also renamed to something completely different then tried to rename to the old filename.

SSIS Execution Error: FlatFile Connection Problem - FileName &&<fileName&&> Specified In The Connection Was Not Valid.
Apr 19, 2008
Hi Champs,
Scenario Configuration : VB.net 2005 Code, WebService for Executing SSIS on Server, SSIS deployed on the Database Server
Problem Description : We are developing windows applicaiton in which we call webservice which was deployed on the same server where SSIS packages are deployed.
Now from Code we are passing FilePath name in variable and execute the Package. But the SSis result says that
The file name "\computernamefol1fol2fol3fol4abc.txt" specified in the connection was not valid.
More Information:
1. Full Permission are given on this network folder.
2. Package executes successfully from SSIS development solution (BIS solution)
3. Deployed packed executes successfully from the Database Server.
4. From Development pc packege executes successfully.
5. Other packages deployed on the same server executed suucessfully with same configuration and scenario.
Only this package is not executing.
-- the only differece with this package with other is -
using ".txt" extension in Flat file connection and using VB Script task
Can any one suggest the appropirate solution for this problem...
Thanks

Logical Name
Feb 13, 2008Hi all
We generally modify the logical name of a data file or log file from the vendor defined to our standard name. Is there any impact that you know about this? If you have 2 seperate database and accidently you have 2 same logical name .. I dont' think that will be an issue ... correct?
ALTER DATABASE XXX_UAT
MODIFY FILE (NAME = 'mdd_Data', NEWNAME = 'XXX_UAT_Data')
GO
ALTER DATABASE XXX_UAT
MODIFY FILE (NAME = 'mdd_Log', NEWNAME = 'XXX_UAT_Log')

May 21, 2008I have a query. on my search page i have a number of textboxes e.g. title, subtitle, ISBN where users can enter a search string and when they click on a button the data is displayed in the gridview below.
my query seems to be bringing up the right records but with some additional records into the gridview. I have tried the same query within the SQL server management studio and it brings back two records like indicated but within my aspx page it brings back 6 additional records that have no relevance to the query. Im quite baffled as to why this is happening and i have debugged but nothing comes to light.
my code in my aspx page is as follows:
public void BindData(){String _BookID = TxtBookID.Text;String _Title = TxtTitle.Text;String _Subtitle = TxtSubtitle.Text;String _ISBN = TxtISBN.Text;String AuthorFName = TxtForename.Text;String AuthorLName = TxtSurname.Text;
SqlDataAdapter ad = new SqlDataAdapter("SELECT Book_ID, Book_ID_Internal AS [Book Internal ID], Title, Subtitle, ISBN, Edition, Publication_Date AS [Published Date] FROM Book WHERE Book_ID_Internal = '" + _BookID + "' OR Title = '" + _Title + "' OR Subtitle = '" + _Subtitle + "'", conn);DataSet ds = new DataSet();ad.Fill(ds, "Book");if (ds.Tables[0].Rows.Count == 0){//if there are no rows returned-state in the gridds.Tables[0].Rows.Add(ds.Tables[0].NewRow());GridView1.DataSource = ds;GridView1.DataBind();int columncount = GridView1.Rows[0].Cells.Count;GridView1.Rows[0].Cells.Clear();GridView1.Rows[0].Cells.Add(new TableCell());GridView1.Rows[0].Cells[0].ColumnSpan = columncount;GridView1.Rows[0].Cells[0].Font.Italic = true;GridView1.Rows[0].Cells[0].Text = "No Records Found";}else{GridView1.DataSource = ds;GridView1.DataBind();}}
if i input the same query into SQL management studio:
SELECT * FROM Book WHERE Book_ID_Internal = 'ITD 450' OR Title = 'HTML 4.0'
it returns two records which is correct.
Can anyone see where i am going wrong?
What Is A Logical File?
Nov 7, 2000In the database properties screen, there are four tabs: General, Transaction Log, Options, Permissions. In the General Tab, it lists four columns: File name, Location, Space Allocated, File Group.
The string in the File name column has a value such as MY_DATABASE_DAT, whereas the Location column has a value like D:mssql7dataMY_DATABASE.MDF.
The Location value is clearly the Windows file name. The "File name" (which I have seen called the "logical file") is a mystery to me. What is it used for? How can it be changed? Is there a problem if two different databases have the same "logical file" name?
(For example, if you do sp_detach_db, copy the file to another place and then sp_attach_db the new file to another database name, you have two different databases with the same "logical file" name.)
Much thanks to anyone who can shed light on this.
Same Logical File Name For Two DB.
Jul 5, 2000Hi everyone,
I have a database (xyz) one Machine A. On the same machine I want to create a copy of the (xyz)database with different name(xyz_1). When I restore with move option it will restore but the thing is logical file names of xyz and xyz_1 are same. I know I can change these file names by manupulating the system table.
My question is If I didn't change the logical file names of database xyz_1(new). Is there any problems or issues may arise.
Thank you,

Logical Records
May 4, 2007The organisation I'm working for has SQL Server 2005 merge replication up and running on 11 servers in 3 different countries.
Ocasionally we experience problems caused by rows in a logical record relationship being replicated between servers in the wrong order, i.e. an attempt is made to insert child rows before the parent. I am not able to reproduce this behaviour on my test servers.
Has anyone else experienced this problem?

How To Change Logical File Name
Jan 18, 2000I cannot find the answer to this: how do you update the logical file name for a database? Restore database "Alpha" over "Beta" specifying WITH MOVE parms allows "Alpha"'s physical files to overlay "Beta"'s, but now "Beta"'s logical file names are "Alpha_Data" and "Alpha_Log".
Updating sysfiles directly gives back a 270; "Get outta here!"
Can this not be done?
Logical IO And Performance Monitor
Mar 29, 2000Hi All,
I've been asked to trouble shoot an installation where many stored procedures are performing poorly. Upon examination I've found that the queries in these procs consume a large volume of logical IO (table scans etc). I'm trying to show that this could cause poor performance of the stored procedures as well as degredation of the server as a whole - but I cant find any suitable counters in Perfmon.
Anyone help?

A Logical Puzzle Answer Me, Is It Possible To Get
Nov 30, 2005I have a view based on few tables okay
I have a query that gives me document details of various revisions
Now i also get the latest rev of those if i use a MAX() in my Query
Now a case where i have say
Docu Numb - Revi - Received Date
Document1 - rev0 - 10/2004
Document1 - rev1 - 11/2004
Document1 - rev2 - 12/2004
Document1 - rev3 - 01/2005
Document1 - rev4 - 02/2005
Document1 - rev5 - 03/2005
Document1 - rev6 - 04/2005
Document1 - rev7 - 05/2005
If i query for latest it gives Document1 - rev7
And if i filter for a month of 12/2004
If i query for latest it should give Document1 - rev2
Now i need to get a filter with latest as rev2,
plus i also need as a indication of actual latest as rev 7
using a query
How do i do that ...
Coz when i use filter for a month and Max then it
does not consider rev7 for that filter and skip the record
and if i try to filter only as per month .. i get a wrong info
as latest rev2 which is not a true info as per database records.
May i possibly get both ... filtered info as per specific month and
also a rev info as what is the latest for a spec document.
Just i need to know is that possible .. in SQl using a query
Any more info needed please mail me on

Change Logical Name In Script
Aug 9, 2006I'm trying to restore about 70 databases onto a new SQL server andwanted to script the creation and restore. I've done the creation withno problems, but on the restore, the logical names (of the originaldata) are all over the place and were historically wrong.So, when I use the script below... I've had to work out the Logicalname for the data and the log file and alter the script accordingly.Creation------------Create Database MyDatabase ON (NAME = MyDatabase_data, FileName ='D:DatabaseMSSQLDataMyDatabase.mdf') LOG ON (NAME = MyDatabase_log,FileName = 'D:DatabaseMSSQLDataMyDatabase.ldf') COLLATESQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_ASRestore-----------RESTORE FILELISTONLYfrom disk ='D:DatabaseMSSQLBACKUP2006-08-07MyDatabase_db_200608072100.BAK'restore database MyDatabasefrom disk ='D:DatabaseMSSQLBACKUP2006-08-07MyDatabase_db_200608072100.BAK'with REPLACE,MOVE 'SomeOtherRubbish_Data' TO'D:DatabaseMSSQLDataMyDatabase.mdf',MOVE 'SomeOtherRubbish_Log' TO'D:DatabaseMSSQLDataMyDatabase.ldf'goWhen I then look at the properties of the database, it shows the oldconvention which I don't want.So, even though I've been neat creating the database, it getsoverwritten with the odl rubbish name. How can I change the logicalname so that I can have a nice and neat naming convention ?Oh, Yes I know I added the collation when creating the database, butthat's another thing that we need to address at some point.Thanks in advance

Get Just Filename
May 23, 2008If you use "SELECT filename FROM sys.sysdatabases" this will return
the full path , such as "E:MSSQLdatamyData.MDF" ,
is it possible to return just the "myData.MDF" part of it?
I know that you can parse the string , but is it stored somewhere else , or is there a command that will return just the physical file name ?

The insert trigger I created works fine (well, nearly fine), except that AFTER the first insert operation (ie second, third etc), it always produces the correct results BUT FOR THE PREVIOUS INSERTED ROW. It is as if there is a latency of one row in the temp table INSERTED.
I would greatly appreciate a 'why', and more importantly, a 'how to fix it' for this problem.
If you need to look at the code, a NOTEPAD file is attached.
