I have a system configured with Windows 2000 and SQL Server 2000
Clustering (active/passive). Both SQL Servers have a local E: drive
with the same directory structure. I would like to move the tempdb
off of the shared SAN and on to the E: drive. I don't foresee any
issues with this but wanted to know if anyone else has encountered
problems with this.
Hi there,
Does anyone know how to move tempdb (mdf and ldf files) to another physical disk of already instaled SQL Server 2000? (The idea is to move the tempdb to another dedicated disk in order to improve the performance.)
Regards,
Azv
I have to move my sql server to new SAN. Tempdb is on old san. If I move the tempdb to c: like below and reboot then move the server, and then after move to new server, start it up, and move again, would that be correct process
i was going to use below to move tempdb to c from SAN
use master
go
Alter database tempdb modify file (name = tempdev, filename = 'c: empdbloc empdb.mdf')
go
Alter database tempdb modify file (name = templog, filename = 'c: empdbloc emplog.ldf')
Go
I want to duplicate the environment of another existing server where tempdb
resides on it's own device (200mb in size). I can create the devices (data & log). What do
I have to do to physically move tempdb to the new devices I create? I've seen such
articles on Swynk.com, but today the links are not working. Thanks very much!

I want to move the tempdb SQLServer database from the default install location (c:program filesMicrosoft...)
to d:mydb
How can I do that ?
One of my boxes was built with all of the system databases on the C: drive, and tempdb is up to 2 GB and there is no room left on the drive
It should have been installed on the D: drive
I've never had to do this before, mostly because I never install sql serevr on the c partition
Any war stories or suggestions
I attempted to move tempdb using detach/reattach with SQL Server 2005 started with the -T3608 flag. I am now in a situation where tempdb is not listed in sysdatabases, but it is in sysaltfiles. If I try to detach it, it says the db doesn't exist. If I try to reattach it, it says it already exists. Since I can't alter the sys tables, is there anyway to get SQL to create a new tempdb, or to reattach the old? Thanks.
View 4 Replies View Relatedguys,I have a project need to move more than 100,000 records from onedatabase table to another database table every week. Currently, usersinput date range from web UI, my store procedure will take those dateranges to INSERT records to a table in another database, then deletethe records, but it will take really long time to finish this action(up to 1 or 2 hours).My question is if there is some other way I should do to speed up theaction, I am thinking about use bcp to copy those records to datafileand then use bcp to insert it into SQL Server table. Is this the rightway to do it or should I consider other solution (then, what is thesolution.)Thanks a lot!

I have a access database. In this database there are 10 tables and this tables are related to each other.
I want to move these tables to another database according to a field in XYZ table (vertical fragmentation).
for example there is name coloumn in the XYZ table and I want to take only joe lines and other tables related to that from database A and move it to database B
how can I do this?
thanks..
I’m working with an msde database on my local machine, but need to take that database and move it to my remote host. This is problematic because I can not just do a back up and restore.
I was wondering if there were any asp.net applications that would generate lots of sql statements to reproduce the database on my remote host.
I had built a program to back up all the tables in that way, but, forgot that the membership stuff uses stored procedures, and I don't not know how to modify my program in order to back those up too.
Any help will be much appreciated, thank you very much for reading my post
Hello,
What is the easiest way to move a database from one server to another with the all table structures, view and stored procedures?
Thanks,
Using sp_detach and sp_attach we can move different databases to different locations.
how do we do the same for system databases such as master,model,msdb and tempdb.
As off i know we got to be in master database to runthis command, if not this how do we go about this.
Thanks,

If you want to move all the databases to new server. Stop the SQL server service on existing server. Copy mdf and ldf files of all databases to same location iin new server. Also take the backup of master and msdb database from existing server. Then restore master and msdb on new server.

P.S. Should I use the DTS at all to perform this task?
Hi:
I need your suggestion or experience about how to move a database from SQL 6.5 to SQL 7.0. The server where SQL 6.5 resides locates in different network than SQL 7.0. DTS does not work for the database move because of two server can not talk directly.
We need to do this task very soon in production environment. I tried to backup database to a disk (backup device in SQL 6.5) but I failed to restore it in SQL 7.0 because the backup file was not detected by restore utility in SQL 7.0.
Please tell me what I should do. Besides BCP, are there any other methods to move the database from SQL 6.5 to SQL 7.0 in diffferent networks.
Thank you very much.

i've got to move 37 SQL Server databases over to new server. My manager tells me that i have to conduct some "check totals" to make sure that the databases contained exactly the same data from what it was when it got moved.
Is there some stored_procedure to do this ? to make sure that all the stored procedures, views, tables got move across ?
Hi,

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a web project in VS.NET 2005 on my development computer that uses an ASP.NET database (ASPNETDB.MDF) to manage user roles. Now I would like to move that database to a test computer with IIS. After copying the web project and database I am able to read from it but when I try to update I get the following error:
Failed to update database "C:INETPUBWWWROOTMyWebAppAPP_DATAASPNETDB.MDF" because the database is read-only.
I think this is because the user 'Network Service' that IIS uses does not have access to the database. So how do I give 'Network Service' access to the database using SQL commands?
I'm trying to move a database created on SQL Server 2005 Express Edition to the SQL 2000 Server (that's the version the company uses). I understand that this is done by making a script that, when executed, creates an exact copy of the database structure on the target server as well as copying the stored procedures.
After that I somehow need to export the data from SQL Server 2005 Express to SQL Server 2000. How can I do that. There's no export function in Management Studio Express.
I am using VWD 2005 Express, with SQL 2005 Express. My web hosting company supports ASP 2.0 and SQL Server 2005, but have put SQL on a database server, which is separate from the application server. I successfully published a "Hello world" test application, but my database application failed after displaying the logon page, presumably when it first tried to connect to the database.
VWD has created my database within the application folder (appApp_DataASPNETDB.MDF) and created the configuration string in web.config: -
<add name="ConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|ASPNETDB.MDF;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
This all works fine on my local development server, but naturally fails when the application is copied to the web host, and the database can no longer be run from an application sub-folder. With SQL 2000 the problem would have been simple to fix. I would have created a database in the host DB server. I would then have backed up the development database, and restored it into the target database. I would then have changed the connect string, and all would have been OK.
How do I get the development database into the target database with SQL 2005 express? I can't use backup/restore, since there is no backup within VWD 2005 Express, and although there is a backup within Management Studio Express (MSE) I would need to get the database into MSE first. I tried opening the MDF file, but MSE wouldn't recognise this. I can't find any way of exporting the database - the equivalent of SQL 2000's DTS is not available within MSE!!!!!!!!! I tried installing an eval. version of the full Management Studio, but the install failed because "there is no upgrade path".
Once all that's sorted (if it can be sorted - I may have to go back to SQL 2000), where can I find out what to write in the configuration string?
Thank you, Robert Barnes
I need to move two databases from my old PC to my new one. Both machines are running Sql Server 2005 Express. I have tried a backup on old, copy the files to the new but I can't get restore to work. I type in the name of the new database to be created when the restore is complete and then select "From Device" and point to the backup file. I have tried both backup of entire database and backup of files. The error says: "Operating system error. System cannot find the path specified" Well, it found the path and backup file in the previous step when I pointed it to the backup media.
I have also tried the "Copy database wizard". However, Express does not come with "Agent" and the two machines can't see each other without Agent even though I have configured Express to allow remote access.
Any other ideas?
Hello ,
I want to move my tempdb database to another drive by moving the mdf and ldf files . Is it possible to shift the tempdb once it is created ?
I am shifting the database since there is no space on the current drive and the database might grow in the near furure .
Any ideas ???
Thanks .
Hi,
I need to expand tempdb database. The users keep getting this error
when they try to do a sort:
SQL Server message(1510): state 2
Sort failed. Out of space or locks in database 'tempdb'
Also in the error log I am getting these errors:
Error 1105, Severity: 17, State: 1
Can't allocate space for object '-641' in database 'tempdb'because
the 'system' segment is full. If you ran out of space in Syslogs, dump the
transaction log. Otherwise use ALTER DATABASE or sp_extendsegment to
increase the size of the segment.
What I am wondering is if expanding tempdb will fix the problem, or is
there another fix that I should be looking at.
Any direction you could give me on this would be appreciated. I have very
little experience with SQL 6.5
Thanks in advance

HiAs i have read, there have been discussions before how to move a local MDF databas to MSsql server at a webhost.But i cant figure it out, i know the answere is out there but i cant find it.I have downloaded the Host Deployment tool that generates a .sql file from my database, it looks ok.The problem is that my host dont allow me to execute this. I have also tried to run a file called RunSql.aspx that should help me execute my .sql file.But i recieve errors
Opening url http://mydomainz1.com/mydbfile.mdf.sqlAn error occured: System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found. at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetResponse() at ASP.runsql_aspx.__Render__control1(HtmlTextWriter __w, Control parameterContainer) in d:hsadminaccoundidmydomainz1.comRunSQL.aspx:line 58The line 58 is empty
Is there anyway that a mdf file that i have build in VWD 2005 can work as a standalone database?I would like it to be as a .mdb database that is simple to move and so on.
Or do the mdf database have to have a MSsql Express or a MSsql Server?
Grateful for help!

Hi,
We have to move two of our servers in US hosting SQL Server 2000 database to different location. These servers are clustered using MSCS and uses SAN to store database data. The database on this cluster hosts publisher and distributor. The other two sites in Europe host updateable subscribers. We are using transactional replication. The downtime will be around 24 hours during which servers will be physically moved from one location to other. During this time we will keep the two subscribers running and let the changes queued on subscribers. I have listed following steps based on my limited knowledge of SQL Server. Could somebody please advise if this approach is valid and if I have missed any steps?
1. Make sure no users are accessing database
2. Backup database (In case of emergency need)
3. Stop snapshot, Log Reader, Queue Reader and Distributor Agents
4. Stop SQL Server Service and SQL Agent
5. Take OS backup
5. Shutdown the server
6. Ship the servers and OS backup to new location
7. Setup servers at new location and restore OS backup
8. Start SQL Server Service and SQL Agent
9. Start agents listed in step 3

Nilesh
