i have applied transactional log to the database and set the database to recovery mode.
Suddenly i feel i want to recover another transactional log backup which i forgot. how to take database again to norecovery mode to apply that perticular tranasactional log only.
Novice question ...
We are running a simple replication whereby we backup the PROD server once, restore onto STANDBY and then run a SP every 5 minutes on PROD that dumps the transaction log and then calls a SP on STANDBY to apply the log to STANDBY. My problem is that both the initial restore and all subsequent logs appear to need the "WITH NORECOVERY" option which leaves the database unusable. BOL says to 'use "WITH NORECOVERY" on all log restorations except the final'. Problem is, because the whole process is automatic, we have no way of telling which of the logs is going to be the last !!!. So, my questions are, 1) am I doing it right and 2)what would happen if a log was applied twice, would SQL know and not apply it ?
Hi,
How can I use the NORECOVERY or RECOVERY option to restore the database?
THANKS
Hi All,
im trying to set up database mirroring and in the initial phase of database restoring im getting some problem.
the scenario is .
1- i create a tempDB on server1(which will be principal server) and backup full and transaction logs.
2- create tempDB in server 2( going to be used as mirror) .
3- restore the full backup of "tempDB" from server1 with NORECOVERY option.
this step results in a message box showing that the restore was successfull...
but the database explorer( management studio) shows the tempDB in (restoring ...) state. and no more operations can be performed with this Database. ( because teh databse isin restoring mode).. please help what this issue is?
Thanks In Advance for any suggestions
I cannot restore a backup file of the transaction log without getting the following message:
ODBC SQL State: 42000
The preceding restore operation did not specify WITH NORECOVERY or WITH STANDBY. Restart the restore sequence, specifying WITH NORECOVERY or WITH STANDBY for all but the final step.
I have tried to do this in Enterprise manager and with the following script with the same results:
RESTORE Log TestDB
FROM DISK='D:MSSQL7BACKUPMMTrans'
WITH NORECOVERY
What am I missing? Thanks in advance for any help.
Hello all,
I just restored a SQL 7 db using the Enterprise Manager GUI interface. I
selected the "Leave database nonoperational, but able to restore additional transaction logs" option. I should not have selected this option as I do not have any transaction logs to apply.
Anyway, my question is... Is there a way to mark the database as opertational without running the restore again?
Thanks,
Corey
Can anyone help me with this issue? I restored a full backup with NORECOVERY because I need to restore the differentials as well but I have not been able to access the db. No matter what I seem to try i receive the following error:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: This differential backup cannot be restored because the database has not been restored to the correct earlier state. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
Does anyone know what I need to do?
Thank you in advance.

We had a siutation last night in our production environment that forced us to revert back to an earlier version of the database (before a major code rollout that failed). After restoring the days full backup (with NORECOVERY), and then restoring a DIFF backup (FULL RECOVERY and had checked Preserve Replication Settings)...the transaction replication failed.

I've tried reinitializing the publication/subscription and while that took brand new snapshots and copied it over to the replicated data server, it did not fix the problem.I read from a different post that I could try running "sp_replrestart" but that ran for about a half an hour and didn't appear to do anything but fill up our log files...did I not wait long enough?
The only thing I know to do at this point is to drop the publication on the production server and rebuild it completely (and with all the tables we're replicating that would take quite a bit of time.
Durning install I selected Window's Authentication only, but now it seems we may need to use a Mixed Mode with an SA account etc... is there anyway to switch SQL 2005 to use Mixed Mode after the fact?

Hello,everyone!!
There is a query which when executed in the grid mode(ctrl+d) takes approx 0.02 seconds(about 21,000
rows) But when I execute in the text mode, it takes about 0.40 seconds!!
Why is this difference?
Also, when the records from this table are read from a VB application, they are equally slow (as in the text mode!)
Why is it so slow on the text mode & relatively faster in the grid mode?
Has anyone got any idea on ‘Firehose’ style cursor ?(which may speed up access of data in the VB application)

Hi,
Currently, our Report Builder is running on Local Intranet mode. I'm investigating what the security implications are in changing it to Internet mode. However, I've not been able to find any documentation on this.
Does anyone know of any documentation that addresses this issue or have experience that they can share with changing Report Builder security zone from Intranet mode to Internet mode?
Thanks very much.
Hi folks,
I have a SQL 2005 OTC. CTP version running on Windows 2003 server.
I would like to find out how the SQL server option changed to Windows Authentication mode from Mixed mode over the weekend. From the SQL log, I don't see when it changed. I would like to see Date/Time and client IP. If I can see User ID (windows) that would be great. Where I can find these info in SQL server?
Thank you in advance...

Hi all,
I want to know how I can do to change my SQL server licence mode (from per-ser to per-seat) without reinstall SQL Server.
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
When I open an application, it prompts me for a message that SQL is locked in exclusive mode by other application.
How to solve this?
thanks in advance

I know that PerSeat is each individual computer that accesses SQL Server
and PerServer is the number of concurrent connections to the server.
Is Client Access Licenses the same as PerSeat?
At installation I erred in specifying per seat licensing when the server I'm working on is actually a per processor license. Can I change this or must I reinstall SQL 2K?

Hi all,
This may seem like a stupid question but i have a server licensed per processor (4 processors) but would like to have it licensed per user. The licensing setup in control panel only shows options for per processor or per devide. How do i get to license per user without reinstalling?
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
I connect to SQL-server from my application with 'sa' account.
It works when SQL-server is configured 'Windows Authentication'
and doesn't work for ' Mixed Mode Authentication'.
How it can be?
Hi,
Were working on a Smart Client application. Our customers will have .Net Windows forms on their computers that will access SQL Server data on our server.
I've read that Windows Authentication is the most secure authentication mode. However, since our customers computers are not on our network it would be impossible to use Windows Authentication. We'll have to use Mixed Authentication. I just wanted to confirm this in case my understanding of the authentication modes is wrong.
Thanks,
Chris
Like in SQL2000, can we set the SQL2005 dbs to DBO only mode?

After installing SQL Server 2005 I found that I inadvertantly used Windows Authentication Mode and I would like to change to Mixed Mode (Windows Authentication and SQL Server Authentication) - what is the best way to do this? In Microsoft SQL Server 2000 you could simply go into Enterprise Manager, edit the SQL Server Registration Properties, edit the Properties of the SQL Server and edit the Properties of the SQL Server Agent.
