Proper Way To Backup And Restore Broker-Enabled Database
Aug 29, 2007
For developers, we often have a need to backup a production database and restore it on local or integration machines. This production database is enabled for service broker and operates at a relatively high traffic level. When the database is backed up, the size is nearly 12GB; when SET NEW_BROKER is subsequently executed on the restored database, the size goes down to about 800MB. It appears that most of this is residing in the xmit queue. So, my question is: how best to backup a production database with queues activated, etc. without ending up with a 12GB backup?
Thanks.

Hello, I receive this error "The SQL Server Service Broker for the current database is not enabled, and as a result query notifications are not supported. Please enable the Service Broker for this database if you wish to use notifications." I attach the database in Management Studio to query and enable the broker using the scrip below but to no avail. ALTER DATABASE DataName SET ENABLE_BROKER ‘''<<------successfulandSELECT is_broker_enabled FROM sys.databases WHERE name = 'Database name' ‘'''<<-------value is 1 Global.asax ...

I backed up a database "Broker", and restored it on the same instance as "BrokerQA" (Broker db still exists, I need them both running on the same instance).

Dear all
I am pretty new to the database administration and was wondering if i could get some advice here so i have a head start.
Unfortunalety i have came to the conclusion the hard way that the SQL Agent on Ms SQL 2000 doesnt work properly when it comes to database backups. I discovered that the backups it creates and it claims that are performed succesfully do not work.
So i was wondering what would be the proper way to go in creating a backup of a highly critical database. The database is in MS SQL 2000. I am not required to have the application roll over to the backed up data in case the main one crashes. But it is absolutely necessary to be able to restore the databse to a most recent working copy. So i guess performing a backup once a day would do. Loosing data from a day would not be such a big deal since i have other ways of restoring that days data, as long as i have the full database up to the previous day.
I was looking at database mirroring but that is not available with sql 2000.
Also i though of as a possibility to run a replication on the SQL 2000 database and replicate to SQL 2005 database which aparently has got the SQL agent working properly.And then run the agent on the SQL 2005 database which would backup the copy daily?
Any advice is apreciate and if there are any white papers or books i could look at that would be great.
Cheers

I have a database that we have running service broker. Its a web based application hitting the database. Occasionally I need to restore the database in the development environment. Every time I trie to restore I have issues because there is a service broker connection. I have tried various commands to stop it, and usually after 20 minutes I finally get it to stop and not recreate itself.
Can anyone point me to an article or provide information on the best way to stop/prevent service broker so that you can restore a database?

Hello,
I've been trying for two days now to get SQL Cache Dependencies to work. So far, nothing has worked, and I have been around the block a few times now on this one. So now I'm going back to basics, as I think my code and queries are fine. My first question is how to confirm that I have a Service Broker that is up and running. I am using SSX as my database engine. Other posts mention how the "look at the service broker folder", and I don't see a folder anywhere. Can someone tell me what to look for? I've added various SP's based on tutorials on web sites, so I can't tell if those SP's are mine or theirs at this point (I've been at this too long). Where is the "folder" the other posts have mentioned? Do I need to do anything special to get it? Did I install all the right files?

I have a database with Broker_Enabled set via the following command:
ALTER DATABASE 'xxxx' SET ENABLE_BROKER
All works well, I made a backup and want to move to my development machine. When I run I still get an error saying I need to enable broker service again.
"The SQL Server Service Broker for the current database is not enabled, and as a result query notifications are not supported. Please enable the Service Broker for this database if you wish to use notifications."
How can I move the database and get this setup? Where are the BrokerID's Stored?
Thanks,

I'm having a problem with memory and cpu increasing after I enable the
broker on my database. Before I enable the broker, my memory will
be at 70 mb, but after I enable broker, memory increases to 100, 200,
and keeps rising even until 700 mb; plus the sql server process uses
more of the CPU, ranging between 30-40 percent.
Any ideas what could be going on, and possible solutions? Thanks

UAT environment : SQL Server 2008 R2 SP3 Enterprise Edition
SANDBOX environment : SQL Server 2008 R2 SP3 Standard Edition
I have a database backup (.bak) that was taken from UAT environment that has CDC enabled on some tables. I want to restore that database into my SANDBOX environment which does not support CDC (because of standard edition). The restore process fails due to this incompatibility. Is there any way to restore without CDC (I dont CDC enabled on my SANDBOX; just my data from the backup) ?

I should restore a SQL Server 2005 Database from backup. The backup contains three files, named user.bak0, user.bak1 and user.bak2.
How is the syntax of the restore filelistonly and the restore database ... ?
I usualy write
restore filelistonly from disk = 'path and filenam.bak'
restore database. zy
from disk = 'path and filename.bak'
with replace,
move.....
move....
This works but I cannot use it with a splitted backup file. The files are much too big to put together to one file.
Thanks in advance for any help.

I neglected to backup the transaction log as part of the process of backing up the database. Now i only have the backup file for the database and no transaction log backup. When i try to do a restore on the database, i get the error on a "tail log missing" message (which i'm assuming is that it's looking for the t-log backup?).
Is it possible to restore or even restore to a new database? I'm only looking to retreive data from 2 tables within the backup file.
Thanks!

Greets!
I have been told that simply stopping the SQL server service and backing up the data directory is all I have to do to do a backup of my data. Is this accurate?
Thanks,

My DBA does a backup of the database and then it gets encrypted and compressed using PGP. This file is sent via ftp to an outside vendor. When they receive it, decrypt it and try to restore, they get the following error:
The media family on device c:dynaxoto1927131153 is incorrectly formed. Sql Server cannot process this media family”
We have tried the process in reverse where we have the vendor send us a file and it works fine.
Please provide some insight.

Hi i've tried a few remote administration tools including Microsofts own Web Data Administrator for SQL server... but none of them seem to do what is essential to me and that is backup/restore databases to a file.
Does anyone know of a free tool that can just backup/restore databases remotely. I dont really want to have to use export/import data as things like triggers get lost when using Microsoft Web data administrator.
A free web tool written in ASP.NET or ASP would be ideal. But PHP would also be fine.
I can ftp to the webserver in question to download the backup file and upload a file which needs restoring but i need a web tool to carry out the operations.
Or if there is another method that would work please let me know.
Thanks

Hi,
I've got a following problem: I have a VB 2005 application that uses SQL Server 2005 Express as DB engine. This application has it's own database stored in mdf file, e.g. invoices.mdf with corresponding log file.
I'd like to give users opportunity to backup and restore this DB file from this application (there won't be a system administrator, only end-users). Unfortunatelly after I connect to this database (using user instance of SQL Server), I'm unable to read or copy it, despite the fact, that I close all connections. And I'm sure that all connections are closed.
Database files become accessible for reading after I close the whole application.
I've tried to detach this database using sp_detach_db prcedure, but it can't be done with database I'm connected to.
I will be grateful for any help.

Hi everyone I am fairly new to SQL server and need some help with creating backups. I am a little confused whether to append or overwrite my backup data when saving full, differential and transaction log backups to disk. Below is my current backup schedule.
1) A full backup every night at 2:00a.m. that overwrites my existing backup. Should this be an appended backup? Wouldn't my file keep growing? How do I manage the backup file size?
2) Differential backups every two hours that is set to append. How do I stop this file from growing? Should I be controlling the size of my backups through the backup set expiry option?
How do I incorporate transaction logs into my backup schedule and manage the size of the log? Should the log backups also be appended or overwriten?
I appreciate everyones help in advance.

Anybody figure a way around this:
In a development server you take a backup and you want to move the entire database to a production server. The production server does not contain the database, users, or logins in master.
When you restore the backup to production in 7.0, the users get moved to DBO because the logins do not exist and then you cannot delete them.
We are having to drop the users from the database on development, back up the database and restore it to production, then recreate the users on production.
This is bogus and did not happen in 6.5 because of the aliases.
Anybody come up with a better way?

I am fairly new to VS 2005 and SQL Server CE. I have developed a Desktop Windows application using VB 2005 and the SQL Compact Edition Database. This application will sell to users via web download.
When they download a service patch, or updated version, I wish for them to retain the data in their present database. In other words, fill the new database with the old data. The new table structures will remain intact except for added columns at the end.
Question is how to save the old data and update the new database with it. Is there an easy way to do this, or do I need to write a module to save a database copy, and update the new database with content at install time?

I need to restore a database (that was backed up thru enterprise manager
and then burned to a CD) to a new computer that I just installed SQL
server 7.0 desktop version (NT workstation 4.0). I created a backup set
of a bogus database on the new computer, then copied the real database
from CD to that location. It won't let me restore it that way, does anyone

Hi all,
I want to transfer a database from one MS SQL Server 7.0 to another.
When I create a new database (SQL Server 7.0) and then try to load a backup, I always end up with a message that the backup database is not identical with the destination database. That is correct and I know it, so what!? Is there any other possibility to transfer a database other than Export/Import. Using this method took me about 48 hours for 6 GByte database!
All suggestions are welcome
Thank you

I want to backup an SQL Server database through a client application written in VB 6.0, and not through the Enterprize Manager.
I use the SQLDMO Objects Library to backup the database to the SQL Server machine through my application,
but there are the following problems:
a. The backup can be done only locally to the SQL Server machine. Is there any way to bypass this restriction?
b. To get the Directories Structure of this machine i use the xp_FixedDrives, xp_Subdirs stored procedures.
That's ok for the Backup operation but i do not have a way to view the FILES to perform Restore operation.
Of cource VB function Dir() cannot be used to view files on the server because of access restrictions.
Is there any workaround for that?

Hi,
I took the backup of a database (called students) from one of the machine on our LAN and then tried to restore it on another machine but am unable to restore the database. Below are some details of the problem I am facing:
- The machine on which I am trying to restore the database (i.e. target box) previously had a database by the same name (no it was not a replica). I had deleted this database from the target box before trying to restore the database (of the same
name and which was backed-up from the source box)
- When trying to restore (via EM) I get a VERY LONG dialog box with lots of details. Below are some details of what this dialog box says:
The title of the database is MS SQL-DMO (ODBC SQL State: 42000) and It says "The physical name 'C:Program Files.....datastudents.mdf' may be incorrect. File 'students_Data' cannot be restored to 'C:Program Files.....datastudents.mdf'. Use with MOVE to identify a valid location for this file.
And the dialog box provides similar details related to 'students.ldf'
Can u please help me with this.

Hi, I have setup a merged replication on two server. Server A contains the Publisher and the Distributor database and Server B contains Subscriber.
If the database at the Subscriber got corrupted. I am thinking maybe i can 'restore' the subscriber database by resynchronising the data from the publisher to subscriber.
But what happen if the Publisher database failed? How should one restore the publisher database and then restore the replication setup?
What will be a good backup/restore strategy for such a setup?
