I'm getting "Executed as user: SPIESQLService. sqlmaint.exe failed. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 22029). The step failed." on the TRN backup portion of the maintenance plan for the msdb and model databases. On review of files created it's clear that the msdb trn log backup is failing, but there's no other error to indicate the underlying problem.
Suggestions?

Hello,
We have a self-written procedure to restore transaction logs on a standby server (Sql Server 2000 sp4)
We do this by joining 2 msdb tables, to find out which backups have been performed: backupmediafamily and backupset.
Sometimes backups are NOT registred in table msdb..backupmediafamily.
Underneath 2 examples.
OK- underneath queries shows the time the backup was created in the physical_device_name; joined with media_set_id
99% shows these correct data
select media_set_id, physical_device_name from backupmediafamily where media_set_id = 258716
media_set_id physical_device_name
258716 H:Mssql2000MSSQLBACKUPPAPPS10_tlog_200701010030.TRN

I seem to have a problem with my SQL Server log backup system. First I was receiving alerts that the log file was filling up, so I increased it from 3Mb to 150Mb, but then I got another alert saying the same thing, later on I got an alert saying that the log backup had failed. I then decided to truncate the log and do a full backup after as suggested, however this did not work, I don't know if I am doing something wrong, this is really confusing and frustrating.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have scheduled transaction log backups to occur every 15 minutes with database backups every sunday at 1.00AM and differential db backups every day at 1.30AM.
While viewing the job history of the transaction log backups through enterprise manager, I noticed that one transaction log backup had failed at 1.00AM on sunday. The error message was,
"Backup, CHECKALLOC, bulk copy, SELECT INTO, and file manipulation (such as CREATE FILE) operations on a database must be serialized. Reissue the statement after the current backup, CHECKALLOC, or file manipulation operation is completed. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 3023) Backup or restore operation terminating abnormally. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 3013). The step failed. "
Please let me know what the error message implies. Will there be any problem if the transaction log backup takes place at the same time as the full database backup or diff. db backup?
Thankyou.

Hello!
I am trying to troubleshoot weird problem. I noticed that msdb log size was growing. I have discovered jobs executing particular stored procedure that had an open transaction in msdb and killed spid in question. This stored procedure was executing sp_send_dbmail at the time I killed spid and fn_get_sql returned xp_sysmail_format_query as currently executed statement. SPID is showing KILLEDROLLBACK status but it hasn't changed for hours and msdb log continues to grow. I am running SQL Server 2005 SP1. I was wondering if anyone has expeienced similar problem. Any advice is greately appreciated.
Thanks,

I am facing the Database recovery problems sicne I have lost my MSDB db , only i have the Complete db backup and transactional backup.

Our sysadmin accidentally uninstalled SQL Server started to panic and reinstalled. Thankfully the data/transaction files to our important databases were still present and I simply reattached them but our DTS packages our gone.
However, we've done weekly backups of the msdb database. How do I get the DTS jobs out of these backups?
In one off my production box, we are notable to take a backups of MSDB . When i look at the error, it is failing locate allocation unit ID.. complete error as below

Due this failure, we are unable to take the backup of MSDB database and our integrity check and reindex jobs also failured with the same.Also, I could see events of I/O issues with underlaying hard dirve with following name

1. I dont no what could happen if restart my server, Question is: Does it recognize MSDB during server statup.
I have been researching on how to cleanup four backup system files located in the MSDB database. I currently have approximately 1 million rows in each of these tables which is making my MSDB database to be 4 gig in size. I cannot find any instructions on how to gracefully clean these tables up or what to do to keep the number of rows down in these tables. The tables are backupfile, backupmediafamily, backupmediaset, and backupset. Thanks.

We take a full backup in the early morning and hourly transaction log back during the working hours for one database in the production server. The application team made certain changes to the design of the said database in their development server. The backup from the development server was restored to the production server during working hours. After the restoration should we take a full backup before next transactional logbackup? Would the transactional log backup with out a full backup after the restoration of a database be valid?
View 5 Replies View RelatedWhat is the best way to restore a database from a folder of backups (including full, diff and log backups) without using the backup history in msdb?
I have a restore process that restores all backups on a regular schedule in order to fully verify their integrity. To do this, I use the backup history in msdb on each server that I'm monitoring. I had a thought the other day that I would be in trouble if I lost msdb. Then my backup history would only be as good as the last backup of msdb.
What I'd like to do is read a folder of backup files and generate a restore script up to a specified time. Would I use RESTORE HEADERONLY to do this? If so, would I use PowerShell to traverse each file in the folder?
The Transaction log backups that I do for the msdb and master databases ALWAYS fail. The full database backups always succeed. Are the master and msdb databases not supposed to have their transaction logs backed up? Jobs where configured thru the Database Maintenance wizard. Will the jobs fail if nothing has changed in either database? I am also confused by the fact that database and log backups for the model database ALWAYS work when I expect their to be little if none activity in that database.
Thanks in advance,
Riley
I’m attempting to insert the result set from a remote query into a local table and I’m getting the following error:
Msg 8501, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
MSDTC on server 'REMOTESVR' is unavailable.
OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'SQLOLEDB' ITransactionJoin::JoinTransaction returned 0x8004d01c].
Msg 7391, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The operation could not be performed because the OLE DB provider 'SQLOLEDB' was unable to begin a distributed transaction.
MSDTC is running on both servers. Has anyone ever seen this or have any insight into the cause?
The code that I’m trying to run is:
create table msver
(
[Index] int,
[Name] varchar(30),
Internal_Value varchar(20),
Character_Value varchar(512)
)
insert into msver
exec ('exec [REMOTESVR].master.dbo.xp_msver')
Note that the remote query works fine.
Thanks!

I have some tables that I need to wipeout and reload once per day. So I have created a T-SQL task that does a truncate table, then a data flow task, then a update statistics task. Running those works fine, but as soon as I put them all into a sequence container and set the container to require transactions, the first step gets a connection failure. "Failed to acquire connection "<name>". Connection may not be configured correctly or you may not have the right permissions on this connection". I am using a .Net SQLClient data provider for the T-SQL task and in the data flow task I have to use a OLEDB provider so that I can run the task locally in development.
Is there something I am doing wrong or is there some other way to handle truncate, load, update stats all in a transaction?
Thanks.

Hi,
While backing up our database, I am getting the following message:
Could not insert a backup or restore history/detail record in msdb.dbo.sysbackuphistory or sysrestorehistory. This may indicate a problem with the MSDB database. DUMP/LOAD was still successful. (Message 3009)
Does anybody have any resolution for the same ?

Hello, everyone:
I just heard that for restore purpose, ths full backup and transaction log backup should be from one maintenance plan. Otherwise transaction log backup files cannot be restored after restoring full backup files.
Is it true? Can anyone offer official documents?
In my system, full and transaction backups are from one maintenance plan. Restores are doing fine. I am not sure that ideal is true or not.
Thanks

what is the differences between a differenctial backup and transaction log backup?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI neglected to backup the transaction log as part of the process of backing up the database. Now i only have the backup file for the database and no transaction log backup. When i try to do a restore on the database, i get the error on a "tail log missing" message (which i'm assuming is that it's looking for the t-log backup?).
Is it possible to restore or even restore to a new database? I'm only looking to retreive data from 2 tables within the backup file.
Thanks!

I've written some provider independent code that dynamically generates and loads DbCommands with data via Parameters and executes them within a transaction. Everything works fine until an exception occurs and then the DbCommand.Transaction property that was set goes to null, effectively killing any chance of rolling back the transaction. I've noticed this only happens when the executed command is of type SqlCommand. The OracleCommand mainitains its link to the set transaction of failure. Upon further investigation, I found that this only occurs when parameters are used but not if I dynamically generate the insert statement as a string.. For instance:SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(connectionString);conn.Open();SqlTransaction transaction = conn.BeginTransaction();SqlCommand comm = new SqlCommand();comm.Connection = conn;comm.Transaction = transaction; command.commandText = "INSERT INTO Table1 Values (1, 2, 3)";command.ExecuteNonQuery(); If I execute that and it fails the command.Transaction property will remain set to transaction, but in this scenario: SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(connectionString);conn.Open();SqlTransaction transaction = conn.BeginTransaction();SqlCommand comm = new SqlCommand();comm.Connection = conn;comm.Transaction = transaction; comm.commandText = "INSERT INTO Table1 Values (@Col1,@Col2, @Col3)";comm.Parameters.add(new SqlParameter("@Col1", 1); comm.Parameters.add(new SqlParameter("@Col2", 2);comm.Parameters.add(new SqlParameter("@Col3", 3); comm.ExecuteNonQuery(); Upon failing the comm.Transaction property gets somehow goes null and the Connection property of the transaction object also goes null.Any ideas on why this only happens with a SqlCommand but no other DbCommand?

If I have a database backup from sunday, and a failure occurs monday... Can the backup .mdf and .ldf files be attached, and the backup log after the point of failure be applied to them?
The problem I am having is it looks like you can only restore from a .bak file, and then apply the log at the point of failure. IT doesn't look like you can restore the .ldf/.mdf files, and then apply the backup log from the point of failure.
Can someone please help? I'm in desparate need of fixing this !
