Migrate SQL Databases To New Hardware
Nov 5, 2000Hi All,
View 1 RepliesHi All,
View 1 RepliesI’ve been asked to migrate many Access databases to SQL Server. There are no reports, queries or forms in these databases. There are two different database structures. Each has many copies with different data. For example, 80 people each have a copy of abc.mdb. Each copy has the same tables, but different data. The databases cannot be merged without modifying the structure of the databases and the programs that access them. There are over 100 databases ranging in size from 2 MB to 60 MB.
What’s the best approach to do this? I don’t want to manually run each through the upsize wizard.
Should I use a local SQL Server Express or a central SQL Server?
Will there be any benefits to doing this? Will the performance improve?
Personally I’d rather redesign the databases, merge the data and modify the applications that use the data. But it’s not my decision.
We are moving all databases from a SQL version 7 server to a version 2000server. Which of the following is the preferred method?1) Detach the DB on the version 7 server, move it to the new server viaWindows Explorer and reattach it there.2) Use SQL Enterprise Mananger with the DTS Export Wizard to "copy objects &data between SQL server databases" from the version 7 server to the 2000server.With the changing of the version, I thought maybe option 2 is best. Thoughts?--Mike CzizekIowa Network Services, Inc.Join Bytes!

Wondering is there any fastest way to do that with very low downtime ?
What I can think about is shrink databases files and perform attach – detach .
Hi all
I was just wondering on if I have to migrate the systems databases from 2000 ie. Master , Model & MSDB ??

I am in process to migrate some replicated SQL 2008 databases to SQL 2012. I haven't migrated the replicated/mirrored databases yet however I have migrated some clean databases just having SSIS. This time I am tasked to migrate replicated one. providing  the detail steps to follow to migrate such databases?Â
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've got about 2 months worth of daily databases created in SQL Express 2005 for a pilot project, which the client is converting to a purchase. Unfortunately they're using SQL Server 2000 and I can't figure out how to migrate the databases to the older version. All my searching turns up how to do it in the expected direction.
Any pointers to how or where to search appreciated.
Thanks,

Dear Readers,Is it possible, like in Access, to link to tables in other SQL databases that are on the same server? I have a query that I originally had in Access that queered from multiply databases. It did this by having those other tables in the other databases linked to the database that had the query.
I have DNN installed on one server and now i need to move whole site to another server. I have moved the FTP files, and changed the conn string in config. How can i move the database? I dont have the database publishing webservice installed so i will need some other way. Does anyone know of a simple way to migrate from one sql server to another?
View 1 Replies View Relatedi have an application that runs on sql server, that is all working fine on the development environment, and nearly ready for deployment in production.
a large part of this application is based on complex dts packages.
is there a straightforward way to migrate all of these packages AND change all the connections to point to the live box rather than the development box, without painstakingly changing all the connection objects (in around 100 packages!!)?
Hi,
I'll be doing a migration of all my exisitng SQL7 databases to SQL2000. We are planning to buy new servers for the upgrade. What is the best way to move the entire database?
A) Use copy DB wizard?
B) Create own DTS package to move everything?
C) Script the entire DB and run it on the new server and then move the data?
D) Do a backup and restore it onto the new server?
What are the best options? Are there anything that i should be aware of?

Hi
I need to move some DTS packages from SQL7 to SQL2K
What is the best way to do this?
I realise the problem is because a SQL7 master database cannot be restored to a SQL2K master database
Is there some way these can be scripted out of 7 and the script run in 2K
thanks

The vendor originally set the db up with user logins. I am migrating the db and need to know how to migrate all the logins as well.
View 2 Replies View RelatedDear All,
I am exploring the feasibility of migrating from DB2 (v7) to MSSQL server 2005. My current applications are using UDB, but the DBA wants to change to MSSQL. I believe the impact is huge. For example, how to create schema in MSSQL, how to migrate the data...
Anyone had the experience before? Could kindly suggest some reference for such a migration? Thanks!

Does anyone have any documentation for the following?
How to migrate DTS to SSIS
How to Run DTS as DTS in SQL2K5
Any help is much appreciated.
I'm migrating from DB2 to SQL 2005 workstation. I have tried all kinds and type of migration tools. The best way so far is using the import wizard to created an SSIS package. One little problem so far. I cannot get past the "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page" error. I get quite a few rows before it stops. I've looked for any "invalid characters" in the source data. The row it seems to stop on doesn't make sense. Is there a way to modify the SISS package file to not stop on truncation errors? Or, can I determine the proper code page to use? I've adjusted column data types and lengths but can't find a combination that works.

Hy all, my english is not so good so i try to explain...
I have this environment
2 Servers, one is sql 2000 an the other is sql 2005 (cluster)
My server 2000 is very old and we dont want to upgrade(hardaware) them and it have a lot of DTS´s packages (actually only DTS packages). I need to rewrite every package to SSIS, but my priority is take off this server transfering de DTS packages to SQL2005 and use in legacy mode.
How do i do this ?..In this moment i just want to transfer the packages to 2005 and use in legacy mode..there´s a diference between migrate and use in legacy mode ?
Thank´s
Hi,
I was able to create an MSSQL database with the ASPNETDB.MDF file. But how do I get the Login Control to point to the MSSQL rather than the App_DataASPNETDB.MDF file?
Hello all,
I have an application in which the database is currently in MySQL. The app is being re-written(in .net 3.5) and I would like to move the data to SQL Server 2005. What is the best may to get the data from MySQL to SQL Server. Any good tools out there? Idealy, I would be able to manipulate the data during the move, as I have plans for some schema changes, but I suppose I could always make them after migrating.
Please suggest any tools or methods, with your thoughts. I will evaluate any suggested tools. Also, SSIS is available for me, is that the best way?
Since I'm not a native English, sorry for my poor English.

I am trying to migrate the default repository that is created when you install OLAP on a server. I have done this on my local server and several other servers without a problem. When I goes through the steps to migrate the repository it says it completes sucessfully but leave the repository pointing at the mdb file. On the other servers it has updated the pointer to the SQL database. I am running SQL2000 SP2, AS SP2 and W2000. The only difference I can find it that the server where it doesn't work also has two named instances on it.
Any help would be appreciated.
I have 100+ SQL servers registered in SQL EM. Is there a way to migrate these servers to a new PC (registry keys?) or do I have to individually register each one in the new PC? Thanks in advance for any response.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHere is the scenario:
We have an existing production non clustered SQL 2000 server instance that we need to migrate to a new clustered SQL 2000 server instance. We need to accomplish this without affecting the FQDN that applications use to call this server. I found this article on a solution to rename the server after an xcopy of the entire db structure. Here is the link http://vyaskn.tripod.com/moving_sql_server.htm. The other issue that we are trying to resolve is the time it takes for the snapshots of replication to run (in our case almost a full day). That is why this approach looked like it may be a good solution for us.
Here is the question:
Is it possible to move our existing database to a new clustered environment without having to change the FQDN that other applications use to access this database and without having to reinitialize replication?
is it possible to migrate from personal to standard without reinstalling server ?

Migrate an Informix table (and eventually an entire database) to MS SQL Server 2012. This is my first experience using SSIS. I started off using the SSIS Import/Export Wizard to create a package. I was actually able to successfully copy a table, but it just didn't copy all the data. It skipped all the data that was in string columns. It created the columns with the proper datatype in the destination table, it just didn't copy the data. The other columns all copied properly. I need to do to get the string column data to copy?
