Move Instance Off A Server With Hardware Problems SQL Server 2000 Sp4 ENT With Replication
Apr 2, 2008
We have a SQL Server 2000 ent edition sp4 with 3 small databases and one 4 GB database which is REPLICATED
The Server has been bouncing like a yoyo today because of a disk controller problem and I am preparing to move the Instance to a whole new server this afternoon. The new Server will have the same IP and name as the original server.
Any suggestions for the easiest or most seamless way to make this happen? preferably using Backup and Restore since they plan on taking the old server down completely and then building a new server with the same name and IP ... any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi,
I've went throught the SP4 documentation but I didn't find a clear answer about how to deal with this situation:
In the situation of a multi instances server in which all instances are SP3a, can I just upgrade a couple of instances to SP4 and leave the others in SP3a ? .
One of the instances I may have to leave in SP3a belongs to a merge replication environnement (Distributor and Publisher), while the Subscriber is also in SP3 on a remote server (which I don't administer..).(the point is that in this situation I have to upgrade the 2 servers simultaneously)
In other words, when I 'll apply the SP4 to just one instance, I understood that the all the tools will be upgraded to SP4.
Will the merge replication involving a SP3 instance on the same server still work?
Thanks for your comments/replies/ideas.
Regards,
jalal

Hi,
I want to move one database from the source SQL Server 2000 instance to a new SQL 2000 instance in another machine. I have five user databases in this source SQL instance. How should be my approach to move this single database out of this ? My understanding is restoring this database in the new instance, copying all logins to the new instance and then copying the jobs, DTS packages, alerts, operators only specific to this database will do it. Please let me know if this is exactly what I should do ..
Thanks in advance..

Himansu

The box I am trying to connect to is running two instances of SQL Server.
There is a SQL Server 2005 instance which is the default. There is a SQL Server 2000 instance which is named 'SQLSERVER'.
I can connect to the SQL Server 2000 instance no problem:<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPCSQLSERVER;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" />
However, I am having trouble connecting to the Default SQL Server 2005 instance. I have tried:
<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPC;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" />
but it doesn't work. I have tried explicitly setting SQL Server 2005 to use port 1434 (as SQL Server 2000 is running on port 1433), and then used:
<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPC,1434;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" />
but this doesn't work either.
Am I mssing something here? Any help much appreciated
Thanks...

I have tried searching all over and have not been able to find what I need, but this is what I have pieced together.
Background:
I need to move an entire instance of SQL Server 2000 SP3 running on Windows Server 2000 to a new physical server running SQL Server 2000 SP4 running on Windows Server 2003. I guess my biggest question is how do I move system databases (master,msdb,tempdb,model), I don't particularly like the idea of using sp_detach/sp_attach on system databases?
This is what I had in mind.
-Install SP4 on the source server
-Backup source to tape
-Restore from tape to destination server (restore system dbs as re_master,re_msdb)
-Shut SQL services down on destination server.
-Replace the system dbs .mdf and .ldf with the re_master & re_msdb .mdf and .ldf
-Restart SQL services
-Restore User databases from tape.
Ultimately, I'm asking can you change the undlying .mdf & .ldf files for system databases?
Also, are there any issues going from Windows Server 2000 to Windows Server 2003?
Thanks in advance.

I have SQL server 2005 on a Windows 2003 machine. The machine is old and I need to move the entire SQL server to a new machine. There are many databases and users that need to move across to the new server. Detaching and attaching the databases would be tedious due to the large number of databases. Is there a way of moving the DB's and SQL users to the new machine without having to do each db one at a time?
Additional info that might be helpful:
The new server's IP address and name must also change to that of the old server.
The old server initially had SQL 2000 on it and was upgraded to SQL 2005.
The new server was installed with SQL 2005 only. Hence the Database and log paths differ between the old and new server.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
We have an old machine which holds SQL server 2000 database. We need to migrate a whole database to a new machine which has SQL server 2005.
When we tried to move whole database using Import and Export Wizard, only tables can be selected to import/export. However we want to import/export the whole database, including tables, stored procedure, view, etc. Which tool should we use?
Thanks.

Is this even possible? I tried to move an existing Sql Server Express .mdf file to SQL Server 2000 by copying the .mdf file to the server's folder and then tried to attach it. I get:
Error 602: Could not find row in sysindexes for database ID 9, object ID 1, index ID1. Run DBCC CHECKTABLE on sysindexes.
I realize that I'm moving back a version in SQL, however the structure of the database is very simple. Does anyone know?
Even if I can just script the thing to SQL 2000 would be helpful, however the .mdf is a file within my ASP.Net site, and does not show up in my Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express under the appropriate SERVERNAMESQLEXPRESS either, so I can't figure out how to script it out?

Hi guys,
I have tried to use the sp_help_revlogin script to move logins from a sql 2000 server to a sql 2005 server. It works for users that have a password. But if the password is blank it will fail. Is there a work around for this since I can't change the users passwords?
I have also tried SSIS package but that too doesn't work because of the same reason.
Can anyone help...

Hello,
I'm in the process of moving a SQL Server 2000 to a new server. I have installed the new server added the latest sp. When I try to restore the system databases (Master, msdb) I get the following error
"the database xxxx.bak Cannot be restored because it was created by a different version of the server restore database is terminating abnormally"
I have looked at everything that I know of and both servers seem to be running the same versions of everything.
Can I just export the databases the the new server?
thanks in advance for any help you can give.

Hi,
I have an interesting situation here. I have a SQL Server 2000 database which is attached to SQL Server 2005. The database (SQL 2000) however only has service pack 3 applied. I need to apply SP4 before I can move forward with SQL 2000->2005 upgrade. The question: can I somehow apply this support package with my current configuration or should I install full SQL 2000 front-end anew (which I don't have at the moment)? Whenever I try to run SQL 2000 SP4 it complains "SQL Server 2000 is not installed on this machine."
The server I try to install the update is Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard Edition x64. SQL Server 2000 database itself is x86 (obviously).
Thanks.

So, we have decided tomigrate to Windows 2003 server and install SQL svr on it.On the old server, the SQL DB is residing on a seperate disk.Is there any way one can install SQL on the new server and importthe data from the disk. Many posts talk about how to do detach/attach etc.The case there is they have a running source server. In my case, I don't.any pointers will be appreciatedRegards,Anand

I have been asked to move a system running MS SQL 2000 Server from a workgroup to a domain. The SQL server is running in SQL Authentication and the services are running as local system.
Will SQL Server break after the move?
Any advice will help. I thought I remember this being the case, but possibly only with Windows Authentication.

Can I run an instance of SQL Server 2000 in SQL Server 2005?
I was planning on restoring a backup of my SQL Server 2000 db to SS 2005, but keep the SS 2000 configuration. The main reason for doing so is to maintain the DTS packages I have in SS 2000 because my understanding is that these are not easily duplicated in SS 2005 Integration Services.
Thanks-Dave

I have a server with sql server 2005 installed as the default instance -- I have a piece of software that needs SQL2000 to be the default instance. Is there a way other than install new sql2005 named instance and move databases to rename my SQL2005 instance from <machinename> to <machinename>sql05 for example?

Hi All,
Hopefully someone can help me. I am trying to upgrade SQL 2000 on a Win 2000 SP4 server to SQL SP4. The server has 2 instances. The one instance upgrades fine with no issues, however when I try to upgrade the 2nd instance I get "<instancename>" is not a SQL 2000 instance. I am a bit stumped so any help in this regard will be much appreciated
Thanks in advance

2) SQL Server 2005 which SP should be installed to support this environment.
3) Any thing that I need to look out for.
Thanks for any inputs on this.
