Move All, But Data, From One Sql Server To Another
Feb 23, 2007
Guys,
We are currently moving our environment. I was told that we need to copy all the stuff over. More specifically, we want to move everything except the data, as our data is dynamic and will fill up in a few days by itself.
What is the best way to move everything over from one server instance to another?
My current approach is the following:
1. Create the file groups we have on our current server on the new server
2. Script out all databases with stored procedures, functions, views, priviliges, indexes ...
3. Script out all the jobs
4. Script out all the dts packages (or rather save each in a file)
5. Load all scripts into the new sql server
6. Re-create user accounts (can these be scripted out also and then loaded?)
Am I missing something or is there a wiser alternative?
Hi All, I hope I am at the right place to post this question: How can I move the tables with its data from Access to SQL Server 7.0 using SQL queries. Later I might put everything in the store procedure and have a third party running the store-procedure to do it by itself. Please advice what should I do first? Do I create new tables in the s SQL Server 7 or can I move the data and create the tables at the same time?..Thank you.
When i try to use the Microsoft OLE-DB Drive for oracle in import/Export Wizard, it gives me message that Oracle networking driver is missing. Contact Oracle for this information.
Any idea to further move on this. I am wondering, why SQL Server 2005 does not have that driver.
I have a database that is off site, it has a database one it that I have a Linked server connection to. We have no other means of connecting to that server database except via that linked server connection. Is there a way I can Copy eplicatemoves etc... that database to an internal server with out doing it table by table. It is apx 80gig db
Copying a backup file is not an option either, and Mailing it on media make it a significant delay.
I would like to move the data / findings into a perm table?The reason for this is so clients can connect to the table using excel. I have another stored procedure which is setup in this process already and it works well. I basically have the stored procedure setup on a task to run early in the morning so when clients get up they connect and get their data.

I need to modify a table to reside on a new filegroup and also point TEXTIMAGE_ON to that filegroup instead of PRIMARY. Apparently in the past, the only way to achieve this via SQL is to create a new table, copy over data, drop the old table and rename the new table to the original name. I found this solution in the SQL Server 2005 forum.
Is there any other way to alter this table in order to point the TEXTIMAGE_ON to new filegroup using SQL Server 2014? We are on Standard edition. The technique I am using is the drop constraint (with move option) and add constraint (to new filegroup) commands. The data and indexes move, but not the text data (it still is in primary filegroup).
I'm trying to move specific data from three linked tables on a source database to three tables on a destination database by generating dynamic SQL INSERT scripts but am getting stuck on the last set of INSERT statements. I don't think I can use SSIS because the source autonumber fields may already exist on the destination side but I could be wrong.
For simplicity, Table 1 (T1) has one autonumber key of PK1 as well as other fields (A1, B1, etc.).
Table 2 (T2) has one autonumber key of PK2 and a foreign key (FK1) that links back to PK1 as well as other fields (A2, B2, etc.).
Table 3 (T3) has one autonumber key of PK3 and a foreign key (FK2) that links back to PK2 as well as other fields (A3, B3, etc.).
Like this: T1: PK1, A1, B1, etc. T2: PK2, FK1, A2, B2, etc. T3: PK3, FK2, A3, B3, etc.
So, I'm able to query the source database T1 to generate my dynamic SQL INSERT statements that will be run on the destination side. I'm also able to generate my dynamic SQL statements to insert into T2 but when I get to T3 I currently am stuck figuring out how to insert because the destination side is unable to match it's FK2 to the just inserted PK2. It throws the below error.

Currently - we have two-node A/P cluster residing on flash array. Need to leverage AlwaysOn to offload processing. Replica server with have Flash storage. Replica node has same CPU and memory footprint. 10GB connection between nodes. Anyone generating such large transaction log for 15/30 minute time period?
I am using SQL Server report 2008/2012 (SSRS) and my report viewer contains body content with 3 Row groups. While printing the report, data print with blank space and move to continue data to next page.
Departure flight : 70 rows First Page : 42 rows printed Second Page : 23 rows printed [ Supposed to be print 28 , if the total count of records more than 23 and less than 42 then the page print only 23 records ] Third Page : 5 rows printed
Departure flight : 42 rows First Page : 42 rows printed [Report max. record allowed to print 42 rows so if total record is 42 then print perfectly ]
Departure flight : 26 rows First Page : 23 rows printed [Supposed to be print 26, if the total count of records more than 23 and less than 42 then the page print only 23 records ] Second Page : 3 rows printed
The ERP manufacturer used an image data type to store large text data fields. I am trying to move these data types from one database to another database using either Sql Queries or MS Access. I can cast them as an 8000 char varchar to read them directly but have no luck importing into these image data fields.
Access and Crystal are not able to read these fields directly.
Any suggestions? Most information about these fields has to do with loading files but I am just moving data.
Next month client is moving servers to new location. The servers will get new ip and subnet Our user db's which are on a SAN will be moving to new SAN. My plan is the following, please correct any mistakes.
1. Do full backups of everything 2. Detach user db's 3. Copy these files to usb box (100 gig worth) 4. After server is in new world bring it up 5. Copy db files from usb 6. Attach db files
I'm a C# developer, not a DBA, but fairly familiar with sql server 2000 and learning 2005. I have a need to update a table on one sql server from another remote sql 2005 server. Both will be SQL 2005, but will not be on the same network, so there will be firewall issues to contend with. Security is not a huge concern as the data is public info and not personal secure information or anything like that. What I'll have is a table of data in one sql database. I will have a copy of that data on another sql server that is used at an ISP and drives a web site. I need the table at the ISP sql server to get updated from the SQL server that is onsite in our office on our private network. I would like to not have to get network admins to open sql server ports if possible, so I guess I'm wondering if there is an easy way with SQL 2005 to update data from one sql server to another in the environment that I have described that maybe could expose the data over a common port (ie port 80). I don't want to have to use integrated security as I'm not sure this would work between remote databases in this scenario. I don't know if the web service end point support in sql 2005 would allow this. The examples I have seen online show a sql endpoint created and then accessed from a .NET application. I can do that if I have to, but I would rather do all of this inside the database in some fashion. I am open to any idea that would work and if I need to, I can ditch the idea of using something over port 80 and can get the necessary ports open between the sql servers. This is a pretty simple scenario that we have with one table of data needing to be updated weekly on a web based sql server from a remote sql server.
Any ideas on how you would approach this would be greatly appreciated. Security for the data I'm accessing is not a huge concern as the data is public domain as I've said, but I need to make sure the rest of the server and database on both ends are secured.
hi, I currently uses SQL Server 2005.I need to move the data to my website, how do I do that? I have the SQL Server Management Studio Express but I couldn't not get it to export the data in .sql file (which is needed to import to my website's SQL database).Please let me know of any tools I need to perform the task. thanks.
Currently we update database A everyday with tables from database B. Database is India and has poor connection speed. What would be the best method of moving this data. Currently it's about 100 tables and on average its about 900 mb. Any input is greatly appreciated. thanks,
Hello everybody We need to move table T1 from database A to T1 database B on same server
size of table T1 15 GB and 40000000 rows
database B just created and will act as warehouse
could it be done simply by 1.creating table T1 on db B and then 2.set db to simple recovery 3. insert into B.dbo.T1 select * from A.dbo.T1 4. create all the indexes on table T1 in db B
I have two databases DB_1 and DB_2 on my server. Both of them have 25 identical tables.
Tables under DB_2 gets refreshed with new data daily and once it's ready with new data, those data should be copied to DB_1 tables (deleting any existing data and loading it with new data).
My question is there any other way other than using Import Data Wizard for moving the data between two databases which included deleting any existing data on DB_1 tables and loadit with new data.
I'd like to move data from my prod. env. to my dev. env. The data in dev would be replaced by the prod one. I cannot do a detach/attach or backup and restore due to some already existing dev objects located in the dev. env.
I have two databases located on the same server. I was able to script a identical table in the other database, but how do I transfer the table data there?
I have a DataReader on a web page: <asp:SqlDataSource ID="ChangeInfoRecord" runat="server" ConnectionString.......... I want to display the value of one of the returned field in a text box. What is the correct syntax? I tried RolledFromDisplay.Text = ChangeInfoRecord("RolledFrom") but that isn't it.
Using Stored Procedure ~ I'm trying to get data from Database1 into Database2 from the column name (ManufacturerID).
Column Names are the Same in both Databases :e.g. Database#1(Empire1.dbo.Location.ManufacturerID) e.g. Database#2(Empire2.dbo.Products.ManufacturerID)Heres what I've tried but is throwing me an error...SELECT ManufacturerID INTO Empire2FROM Empire1.dbo.ProductsINSERT INTO Location.ManufacturerID
Okay, after I got everything imported, I found that a few thousand columns had "Shifted" on me. So now I am trying to "Shift them over" to where they need to be.
I did this: INSERT INTO dbo.TABLENAME (COLUMN_NAME_TO_BE POPULATED) SELECT COLUM_NAME_OF_INFO_TO_BE_MOVED FROM dbo.TABLENAME WHERE MFG = 'MANUFACTURER_NAME' AND PN LIKE '8888888888' GO
I populated the PN column with 8888888888 to use as a reference point, and the MFG column already was populated with the correct name, so I was using those as my unique reference points.
Other columns that have the same MFG name are correct, so I have to use two unique identifiers to specify the actual data that needs to be moved.
It inserted 'NULL' in the whole table after I ran it in the Query Analyzer. It appeared to disregard the WHERE statement all together Any ideas on what I am doing wrong here?
Is there a way to move the data from one column to the next one over by specifying other WHERE criterias?
I'm attempting to move data from an Oracle table to an Access table using an Oracle stored procedure in DTS. The problem is that you can't pass parameters to an Oracle stored proc when its called in a data pump task. Is there a way to pass global variables into an Oracle stored procedure which retrieves data and moves it to an Access database? Maybe in an Active X task? We are required to use an Oracle stored procedure by our DBA's or else I'd just pass the variables into a SQL string and use it in the data pump task.
