Nightly Database Push
May 20, 2008
I have a production database that I would like to have copied over to a backup database on a separate server every evening. I don't want to mirror, I just want the databases synced up every evening.
The servers are physically attached through a gigabit switch and the database is relatively small, so I don't think that speed will be an issue.
Could someone point me to an article about the best way to accomplish this?
Thanks.

I know this is probably an easy thing to do but I've been struggling with this on and off for the past month or so. All I want to do is copy two databases (our app db's) to two other databases (for app testing and training) on the same server every night. The databases aren't used during this time so they can be taken down if necessary.
I've tried using the Copy Database wizard and scheduling the resulting job but that isn't working...
Thanks in advance for any direction/help!

We need to configure a way to publish from development to testing and from testing to production. An easy, automated process would be best.

I'm able to pull down all my tables needed, but I need to push a table from my handheld database that was not pulled. Is this possible?
The table is used to save data on some input screen on my handheld application and I need to push it to a 'staging' table on my main sql server before it is inserted into the correct tables.
Is there a way to do this?

In ADS Wizard's Log, it shows me "Pushing data to Access database"
but the Access database in my Desktop PC does not receive the data "pushed" from the "Device".
In the reverse direction, If I "Pull" data from Desktop PC's Access Database, it works.
Why? Any suggestion?
I already repeat this many times but the result are the same.
I did not turn on Windows firewall and Kaspersky internet security at all.
Thank you

Hi all,
I'm using VS2005 + SQL Compact 3.1 and Enterprise Library 3.1 May 2007
I can successfully create a db using pull method, when I try to push back data I got the following SQLCE error:
"Another user has opened the database with different instance-level initialization properties. [ 32 ]"
Before calling the push method I did
SqlCeDatabase eCE = Helper.GetDB() as SqlCeDatabase;
eCE.CloseSharedConnection();
SqlCeConnectionPool.CloseSharedConnections();
SqlCeRemoteDataAccess rda = new SqlCeRemoteDataAccess();
rda.InternetUrl = webSynchronizationUrl;
rda.InternetLogin = webuser;
rda.InternetPassword = webpass;
rda.LocalConnectionString = eCE.ConnectionStringWithoutCredentials;
but after the assignment the LocalConnectionString is different from ConnectionStringWithoutCredentials, there are much more ssce parameters.
What I don't understand is:
why I'm getting this error even after closing the connection ?
Since the error report [32] the ssce conflicting parameters shoud be AUTO_SHRINK_THRESHOLD, FLUSH_INTERVAL and MAX_DATABASE_SIZE
I tried to cut & paste the same values from LocalConnectionString into app.config connection string, at first It seemed to work, but now I got the same error.
Any help will be greatly appreciated
Thanks

I have to verify a .CSV file exists before I run a BULK INSERT. I am using XP_FileExist in SQL 2000 to accomplish this. After the Bulk Insert is completed and validated, I need to Rename the file and Move the file to archive the folder. For testing I figure If I can rename the file I can move it. I suspect I have permission issues and need to provide the SQL Server Agent permissions to this folder and file. I have my PC setup as a SQL 2000 Server and am attempting to get this step only working on my local machine. I created a nightly Job that remanes a file that I created in a Job and that is all it does. I am running the Job as SA but am still having issues.
The step being executed by the Job is "Ren C:MyTestFile.csv C:MyTestFile1.csv" (with the quotes). If I run this statment (without the Quotes from a command prompt, the file is renamed.
I have set the Type as "Operating System Command (CmdEXEC)". The Job history shows "The process could not be created for step 2 of job 0x71D51027F920A140A2913234DB7FF509 (reason: The system cannot find the file specified). The step failed."
As I said, I suspect that it is a permissions issue as the command works from the command prompt. What is the windows account that the SQL Server Agent uses to commit these commands? I added "Everyone" with Full access to the folder and I still get the same failure.
I would appreciate any assistance anyone could provide. Thanks in advance!

I am using SQL Server 2000 and trying to create a disaster recovery strategy that would run nightly and backup the database or at least the changes and would ftp these to a secure ftp site. For smaller database it is easy, I just take a full backup, zip up the file and ftp it to the secure backup site. This strategy does not work so well when the zipped up database is still close to 3GB. I have a pretty big window for doing everything but 3GB is just too much to ftp overnight. The recovery model is simple so the only other option seemed to be do a full backup once a month and take differentials nightly. The problem is I am offsight and the client may need to take a full backup during the day and my nightly differential would get screwed up.
There is a fairly low volume of transactions so the idea of just doing nightly backups on the data that has changed is the obvious choice but differentials don't seem to fit. Any ideas?
Thanks,
TH

Quick question..
If I'm log-shipping data from a database can I still perform a full backup of it each night without it affecting the log sequence?

How would you solve this problem?
Would you use replication? SSIS? Schedule stored procs? A third party data tool?
We have about 50 databases located at offices around the world. There are several key tables which we need a central copy of at our Head Office.
We need only the new INSERTS or UPDATES for the day to be copied to head office.
The copying process should happen after business hours for that office.
Some cleaning of the data needs to happen before updating head office.
Our database is being installed at new offices every other month, so it's important to us that this be easy to add a new database into the schedule, ideally without needing a SQL DBA or Developer.
We want something robust, performant and easy to troubleshoot.

I need some help. I'm running Win2000 w/SQL 2000 Active/Active cluster. I've started having problems where one node will fail over automatically every night. The times are different each night and the only thing that shows up in the log file is the SQL Server terminated due to stop request from the service control manager. I can't find any error to point me in any direction. Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this?
Thanks,
Jeff

I run a nightly full backup of the databases and then back up the transaction log. After completing the full database backup and the transaction log, I then update all existing statistics.
Is this a good practice to do on a nightly basis? I drop and re-create indexes on all the databases once a week. Does updating the statistics really help?

I'm trying to replicate two very big databases with about 10 million
of 4000 characters each. The publisher is SQL 2000, subscriber
is SQL 7.0
The subscriber will also perform full text searches.
I'm trying to decide wheter I should use PULL or PUSH.
The publisher is operating on a very low quality/speed internet
connection, where the subscriber is enjoying a T1.
Help, anyone?
Thanks,
-Michael.

While trying to push a tracked table using RDA.push, I get the following error:
Error Code: 80004005
The message cannot be built. The make message failed.
Minor Err: 28581
Source: Microsoft SQL server 2005 Mobile Edition.
All other tables in the database are getting pulled and pushed correctly. This table is different only in the larger number of columns, around 150. It has a primary key, no other constraints.
Any help to find the reason for this error will be greatly appreciated.

Hello all. Please excuse my ignorance, as this is not my territory. I administer a website which is hosted remotely. This site has SQL7 running the data to dynamically build the site. Every Sunday our hosting service runs a DTS package to push the data they have down to us, so we can run reports and analyze it. We recently upgraded to SQL2000, while our host has stayed with SQL7. Now our DTS is failing. They say it is because 7 cannot push to 2000. But they think that we could pull from them. How do I go about setting that up? Will the DTS wizzard walk me through most of it?
Thanks in advace

Hi All,
I have a problem,
I need to copy a large amount of data from one table and insert it into another table.
The design of the destination table is exactly the same as the source table except for the fact that it has one extra field.
Can I copy; in a single SQL statement; all rows in one table (that match given criteria) into another table allowing for the extra field?

Hi, all,
I did not see this one coming, and I am not sure if I did something wrong.
How do you push data from sql05 to sql2k?
I set up a data flow task, with one sql05 connection magager and another sql2k connection manager. Then when I tried to map them, I cann't!
The message on the box said: The connection manager uses an earlier version of sql server provider. Bulk insert operations require a connection that uses a sql server 2005 provider.
I have been trying different source, destination and transformation, but seems like missing something.
Thanks!

Hi,
I am using the Pull command to pull two fields, on is the primary ID (int) non identity and the other is Description which comes down as an ntext type. This works fine but if I change the description and use the push command I get the following error:-
The Query processor could not produce a query from the optimizer because a query cannot update a text, ntext, or image column and a clustering key at the same time.
I am really stuck with this one so if anyone can shed some light on it I would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Jiggy!

Hi Everyone:
I am new to Mobile programming. I am now working on a small mobile app.
I encounter an issue when I sync the data:
Using RDA Pull, I can create the database and populate my table fine on my pocket pc device.
After updating the data on the device, I encounter an error when I try to Push my table back to the back-end SQL Server 2005 DB.
Error: "The identity range was not established."
VB CODE:
Private Sub RdaConnKeyHeaderPush()
Dim RemoteAccess As New Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeRemoteDataAccess
Dim RDAConnectingString As String
RemoteAccess.InternetLogin = "<mylogin>"
RemoteAccess.InternetPassword = "<mypassword>"
RDAConnectingString = "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Persist Security Info=True;Data Source=<MySQLServer>;Initial Catalog=MobileKeyDB;" & _
"User ID=MobileUser;Password=<mypassword>"
RemoteAccess.InternetUrl = "https://www.<mysite>.com/SQLMobile/sqlcesa30.dll"
RemoteAccess.LocalConnectionString = "Data Source=Program FilesSQL MobileenMobileKeyDB.sdf; Password = <mypassword>"
Cursor.Current = Cursors.WaitCursor
Try
RemoteAccess.Push("KeyHeader", RDAConnectingString, Data.SqlServerCe.RdaBatchOption.BatchingOn)
Catch RDAConnectionException As Exception
MessageBox.Show("Can not push Header Data: " & RDAConnectionException.ToString, "Loading Key Tracker")
Finally
RemoteAccess.Dispose()
End Try
Cursor.Current = Cursors.Default
End Sub
TABLE DEFINITION:
USE [MobileKeyDB]
GO

SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO

GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[KeyHeader](

CONSTRAINT [PK_KeyHeader] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED

Anyone have any insight on a solution? Thanks.
