Moving Data Tables Between SQL Servers
Jul 20, 2005
I have user that we just migrated his Access database to SQL
Server. All went well with the migration, but then he came up with
another requirement to be able to replicate the database to a local
SQL server living on the hard drive of a laptop. Before the migration
he just copied the entire Access databse to the lap top.
I tried using the Copy SQL Server Objects Task to move the
necessary tables from the production server to the laptop, but noticed
it doesn't copy over the table Indexes/keys identiy fields etc. I
ended up backing up the production database and restoring it to the
laptop database, but wondered if there is any way to move the tables,
with their properties from one server to another? I know I can set
up the backup process to run as scheduled, but the problem is the data
needs to be moved on an irregular time table. I thought about just
writing code on the remaining Access front end to empty the local
tables and then query the data from the production side to reload
them, but I'm sure there's an easier way.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Tom

I have an Integration Services package that loads new data into tables that are dimension tables wi my cube. The same situation exists for my fact table. If I perform an "Analysis Services Processing Task" for the dimensions ,cube and measures, will that move the new data into my cube or do I need to perform the "Dimension Processing Destination" data flow task prior to this? Is the initial processing task good enough?
thx,

I have 2 SQL server 2000 machines, I need to take a table from each one and combine them together based on a date time stamp. The first machine has a database that records information based on an event it is given a timestamp the value of variable is stored and a few other fields are stored in Table A. The second machine Table B has test data entered in a lab scenario. This is a manufacturing facility so the Table A data is recorded by means of a third party software. Whenever a sample is taken in the plant the event for Table A is triggered and recorded in the table. The test data may be entered on that sample in Table B several hours later the lab technician records the time that the sample was taken in Table B but it is not exact to match with the timestamp in Table A. I need to combine each of these tables into a new SQL server 2005 database on a new machine. After combining the tables which I am assuming I can based on a query that looks at the timestamp on both Tables A & B and match the rows up based on the closest timestamp. I need to continuously update these tables with the new data as it comes in. I havent worked with SQL for a couple of years and have looked at several ways to complete this task but havent had much luck. I have researched linked servers, SSIS, etc Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Just got a new workstation and installed Enterprise Manager. Is there an easy way to migrate the registered servers from the old workstation to the new one.
I have about 30 servers defined under 6 groups. It would certainly be a lot easier if there was a file I could drag from one workstation to another.

Hi all, I have a database that is duplicated on 4 different SQL Server 2000 servers. I created a database diagram in one of those identical databases using EM, and thought I would like to copy it across to the other 3 databases. I can't find any way to do that though.
Any ideas? I can right-click and copy the diagram in the source server/database, but can't "paste" into the second server/database's Diagrams directory.
I know the diagram is created from the objects in the dabase, but mine required some customization and it would be really cool if someone has a silver bullet I could borrow to make the diagrams in the other DB's match up to the formatted one.

Hello all,
I was wondering if there is a way to move ODBC connections between SQL servers? We are replacing our current server with newer hardware, and I have pretty much everything figured out except this.
Thanks for any help and/or hints.

I have a set of packages that use an Indirect Configuration to a XML config that gives each package a connection string to the Configuration database. The configuration database has all the connection strings for every connection I use.
I just moved my dbs to a new server. I updated the XML config file to point to the new server and updated the connections in the configuration table. I am having two problems. When I open packages in BIDS, I am receiving errors because the connection strings embedded in the packages were pointing to the old server. I updated the Data Sources in the solution and that didn't fix it. Why is it not using the configurations?
Also, on the production box (64bit), I am having the same problem. It is not reading in the connections from the new SQL configuration table. All my connections that are producing errors are OLEDB for SQL.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Abe

I'm having some issues restoring a backup of database that uses native encryption onto another server. I know there are a couple of articles on this but I seem to be missing something. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Current Server Windows 2000
Destination Server Windows 2003
The original key setup for the current server was achieved by something like this:
CREATE SYMMETRIC KEY HR01 WITH algorithm=DES encryption BY password = 'HRpassword'
Running the command select * from sys.symmetric_keys on the current server I get the following:
name
principal_id
symmetric_key_id
key_length
key_algorithm
algorithm_desc
create_date
modify_date
key_guid
HR01
1
256
56
D
DES
2006-11-22 16:36:01.883
2006-11-22 16:36:01.883
BBD80500-338F-47D7-B336-85D46E00F2F0
So I restored the database onto the new server and ran this script:
OPEN MASTER KEY DECRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'Password';
ALTER MASTER KEY ADD ENCRYPTION BY SERVICE MASTER KEY;
GO
I don't have a master key... so I go back to the original server and ran this script and did another backup:
CREATE MASTER KEY ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'Password'
OPEN MASTER KEY DECRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'Password';
ALTER MASTER KEY ADD ENCRYPTION BY SERVICE MASTER KEY;
Running select * from sys.symmetric_keys on the current server now looks like this:
name
principal_id
symmetric_key_id
key_length
key_algorithm
algorithm_desc
create_date
modify_date
key_guid
##MS_DatabaseMasterKey##

BBD80500-338F-47D7-B336-85D46E00F2F0
I then restored the new backup onto the 2003 server and ran this script:
OPEN MASTER KEY DECRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'Password';
ALTER MASTER KEY ADD ENCRYPTION BY SERVICE MASTER KEY;
GO
The alter script now runs fine but I get the error message: The decryption key is incorrect when trying to open the HR01 key

We have succesfully moved SQL server to a new machine and this same machine will also be running IIS 5.1 to host our intranet. We will be doing the actual developing on other machines and publishing the site to the new machine.
Now, when I went to test the site, it all comes up just fine, but logging in is a problem. What do I need to do to configure the new SQL server to accept new members, logins, etc.
Oh, and actually membership is still on the "old" SQL.
When I tried to login, I get this:
Server Error in '/' Application.
Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.
Thanks for the information.

Greetings all,This should be an easy task, and Im sure it is, but as many times as I havetried, I cant seem to get this to work properly.We changed ISPs recently from a shared host to a co-located server, and ourformer host was nice enough to send us a backup of our old SQL2000 database(about 5MB).I went into Enterprise Manager, created an empty database with the same nameand used the Restore Backup tool successfully. I took a look at the db andsaw all the Tables and data intact.Next I wanted to re-create the DSN to match the old one so that I wouldnthave to fiddle with any of the old connection strings in my asp pages.Thats where the fun began. The old DSN was created by our host via an emailrequest and I never got a look at the actual creation process of that DSN.I created one on our colo server with the same name, but it would only passthe connection tests when I used the Windows User Authentication rather thanSQL Server Authentication. No big deal I figured, and just went ahead andset it up using the same DSN name.Next I tried the main.asp page to test the DSN and lo and behold I got theODBC connection errors. I tinkered with the connection strings a bit andmanaged to get a wide variety of connection errors and fine-tuned to thepoint that it said "Unable to login with user 'SERVER169/nacog'". At thispoint, I went into Enterprise manager and added 'nacog' to the User list andthe connection string no longer produced errors. (By the way, my connectionstring simply contains "DSN=YAVAPAICONNECT;")My next step was to actually execute a SELECT statement which produced thefollowing error:Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e09'[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]SELECT permission denied onobject 'ADMINS', database 'YAVAPAICONNECT', owner 'dbo'./nacog/admin/main.asp, line 189Why was I not surprised?I went back to Enterpise Manager, saw the all the tables had 'dbo' as theowner, and tried to give 'nacog' all the permissions at the table level, butthe error persists.To preserve my sanity I stopped there, because I spun my wheels for hoursand days the last time this happened. and my eye has not stopped twitchingsince ;)I am quite sure that this has something to do with one or all of thefollowing:1) The way SQL2K was installed (it was installed by someone else)2) My creation of the db with the windows login, rather than SQL auth, priorto import3) My creation and handling of the DSNMy background is mainly in ASP programming, and I understand bits and piecesof this puzzle, but for the life of me I cannot piece this thing together.Can anyone help point me in the right direction or suggest a good tutorial?I would be very thankful to anyone who could help put me on the right track.Best Regards,Ben M.

We are planning to move all of our System Center Databases that reside on front end servers to each system center application to a centrally located SQL 2012 server. We'd like to centralize everything and have our DBA care for the server. here is our setup:
SCOM has 1 monitoring and 1 Data warehouse server. SCCM has 1 server with all roles on it. DPM database is on the same server as Application. Same with SCVMM. I have 2 questions regarding this move:
1. Can I have all these databases running on 1 SQL instance?
2. Is there a best practice document that highlights steps and "gotchyas"

Hello,We are researching whether the following scenario would be possible:In an upcoming application release, we have to move some tables (Logtables, look up tables, and a couple of secure tables) from database Ato database B.Rather than wait and do everything all at once, and have no roll-backplan should it fail, we'd like to create database B now, and startmoving those tables one by one over to it.To ensure compatibility with the existing code-base, we'd like todetermine whether we can use updatable views to allow the current codeto continue to run against the existing DB.Essentially, we would do this:Given a table named LogTable In database A, we'd copy all ofLogTable's data to database B. (We'd look at the transaction log tocopy any changes made on rows modified after copying started.)Then, we'd turn off the site for a few moments, and:In database A, we'd rename LogTable to LogTable-Old, and create a viewcalled LogTable which points to DatabaseB.dbo.LogTable.When we turn the site back on, updates and selects to LogTable wouldphysically pull from database B from now on.I have already verified that performing selects and updates against aview that refers to another physical database actually does work inSQL 2K5.My question is are there any pitfalls or things we should be aware ofthat anyone else has experienced trying to do something like this?Does it sound feasible?Thank you,Josh

Due to bad programming techniques and legacy databases, my company has a large database with all the tables in it. I would like to start moving these tables out of the database and into more appropriately named databases.I was wondering if there was a way to set an alias up so that, when the table is moved, there will be no problems with out code still trying to access the table from the old database.Maybe an example is the best way to explain this. Lets say we have a DB_Company database with table T_Customers, T_Suppliers, etc.Now, as the company grows, we decide to create a dedicated database for all the customers. So we create a database DB_Customers and move the T_Customers table into it.The problem is that they may be some code that is still trying to access the DB_Company.T_Customers table. Is there a way of setting an alias up so that, when someone tries to access the DB_Company.T_ Customers table, he is automatically redirected to the DB_Customers.T_Customers?Hope that's not too confusing :-(Jag

I ran the following code on one of our servers and I got some surprising results. Those results included backups for that machine but also showed entries for other servers. I don't understand it! I can understand the results being wrong because I coded something incorrectly, but why would another server be listed in bs.server_Name? It appears that the entries are "correct" in that backups were taken on the other server at the time given, but why is it there??? (I put the code together to list the most recent backup for each database on the instance. I hope it is correct.)
select @@ServerName, bs.server_Name, bs.Database_Name,
bmf.physical_Device_Name,
bs.backup_start_date, bs.backup_finish_date,
Case When bs.backup_start_date < Getdate() - 1 Then 'Stale' Else 'Recent' End as Status,
Case When bs.backup_finish_date is NULL Then 'Failed' Else 'Successful' End as Success
from msdb.dbo.backupset bs
Join msdb.dbo.backupmediafamily bmf on bmf.media_set_id = bs.media_set_id
where type = 'd'
and bs.backup_set_id = (select max (bso.backup_set_id)
from msdb.dbo.backupset bso
where bso.server_name = bs.server_Name
and bso.Database_Name = bs.Database_Name

I'm presented with an issue where by I need to reclaim a fair bit of unused space currently sat in the primary data file for my database. I don't want to run DBCC SHRINKDATABASE as we all know this could potentially have a some serious negative effects relating to index fragmentation.
So, how do I get the free space out of the data file? - I've decided to:
1. Add new new file group
2. Add a clustered index for all tables on the new file group
3. Shrink the primary file group as much as possible (hopefully giving me the free space back)
4. Drop the newly created clustered indexes for all tables
There are no clustered indexes currently for any of the tables!, so me temporarily creating/dropping one shouldn't be an issue. Are there any other ways I can get the free space back to the OS?

I have 2 tables with the following structure:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[table1] (
[RID] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL ,
[RText] [varchar] (400) NULL ,
[DateModified] [datetime] NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Table2] (
[GrpRID] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL ,
[GrpID] [varchar] (10) NOT NULL ,
[RID] [int] NOT NULL ,
[Status] [bit] NULL ,
[SortOrder] [int] NULL ,
[DateModified] [datetime] NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
I am transfering 2 table between 2 SQL server based on GrpRID from table2.
Since RID is identity in table1 sometimes it is different text for spesific
Rid in second server. Some how I need to get the match the right text from server1
to server2 and if text doesn't exists create a bew entry in table1 with the update to table2
wich should reflect correct RID.
