RESTORE DB Into Different Size Files
Aug 11, 1999I have a 24gig DB that has 1 data file.
Is it possible to RESTORE the backup to a DB that has 2 files

Does one of the files on the the DB have to be at least 24gig to RESTORE?
Script .bak Restore W/ .trn Files
Feb 17, 2006I'm the DBA in an environment with approximately 240 identical (structurally) MSSQL 2000 databases in an environment. Each one of these databases are different business units around the country. For each of these DBs, I have my backup schedule set up to do a full backup every friday night, along w/ doing a transactional every 4 hours in between. Every once in a while (about once every 3 weeks), I get the call to do a restore to pull some piece of data that some end user accidentally deleted or broke. Now most of the time it isn't a big deal, because I can use enterprise mgr to restore to a new DB from the live backup set of the database in question.But, several of the databases seem to have an issue where (for some reason) my predecessor renamed the logical file names of the data and log files to various goofy things. It doesn't affect their operation, but when I try to do a 'restore from database,' it gives me a bunch of big fat errors. This is also the case when the backup I want to restore something that has been written to tape and has been rolled out of the backup history.SO... basically for these databases, now I go into Enterprise mgr and first restore the base .bak file to a new database, leaving it marked 'read only' and 'able to restore additional transactions.' I then have to do the same thing with restoring each additional TRN file, all the while making sure I don't forget to set the 'able to restore additional transactions.' Whenever I forget to set that I have to start all over. And honestly, it happens more often than not when I have to restore 5 days out from the .bak file, which means that I have restore 30 trn files on top of the .bak. Not hard, but incredibly tedious.So here's my idea. I know I can script restores thru QA. I've been looking quite a bit at this MS doc (http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/sql/2000/maintain/sqlbackuprest.mspx#E2AA) and have come up with some good ideas. What I want to eventually do is create a script that you can just paste the .bak file and the list of .trn files. The script basically creates a temp table w/ those file names and cursors thru the restore process. The cursor part is easy for me, I'm just not sure about scripting the trn restore. The MS doc is a bit vague and really only shows the Enterprise Mgr method.Here's what I've been playing w/ so far for restoring the base .bak file:restore database restore_dbname --NAME OF NEW DBfrom disk = 's:mssqlackupuserdbnamedbname_db_20060120184 1.bak' --PATH TO BAK FILEwithmove 'pm65mr1_default_data_OldDBName_Data' --LOGICAL FILE NAME OF ORIGINAL MDFto 'I:MSSQL$MSSQLSERVER2Data
estore_dbname.mdf' --PATH TO NEW MDFmove 'pm65mr1_default_data_OldDBName_Log' to --LOGICAL FILE NAME OF ORIGINAL LDF'U:MSSQL$MSSQLSERVER2Log
estore_dbname.ldf' --PATH TO NEW LDFpartial, recoveryI think I'm pretty close with this, but I'm not really sure how I can stack the trn restores on top of that. Any ideas? I've been putzing around the web and so far haven't been able to come up w/ anything really useful.
How Can I Restore A Database To Different Files And ...............

MSDB Restore With .ldf And .mdf Files Only

How To Attach Or Restore Db From .mdf And Ldf Files After Db Deleted
Aug 19, 2002First, let me say that I have already reviewed information posted by experts within the chat area.
Someone completely deleted my SQL Server 7 database. I retrieved the .LDF and .MDF files from a network backup. Now I am trying to attach the database. I have tried this without creating an instance of the database by using the attach stored procedure to attache the .LDF and .MDF files I retrieved from the network backup. Also, I have tried it by creating an instance of the database and doing a detach of the newly created db .LDF and .MDF files and an attach of the .LDF and .MDF files I retrieved from the network backup. Neither of these approaches have worked.
Here is what I have tried in the Query Analyzer, but to no avail:
For the following example, I created a database instance called 'qarun_diamond_48_brett' with brand new .ldf and .mdf files and then tried to detach and then attach the .ldf and .mdf files from the network backup:
use master
go
sp_detach_db
'qarun_diamond_48_brett', 'F:APPSSQL 7.0DatabaseDataqarun_diamond_48_brett_log.ldf'
Message: Usage: sp_detachdb <dbname>, [TRUE|FALSE]
use master
go
sp_detach_db
'qarun_diamond_48_brett', 'F:APPSSQL 7.0DatabaseDataqarun_diamond_48_brett.mdf'
Message: Usage: sp_detachdb <dbname>, [TRUE|FALSE]
I tried the following attaches of the retrieved/recoverd .ldf and .mdf from the network to the newly created db instance. That didn't work, so I tried attaching to a db that had not yet been created.
use master
go
sp_attach_db
'qarun_diamond_48_brett2', 'F:APPSSQL 7.0DatabaseDataqarun_diamond_48_brett2_log.ldf'
Message: Server: Msg 1801, Level 16, State 3, Line 1
Database 'qarun_diamond_48_brett' already exists.
If I use a different db name I get the following error:
Server: Msg 5105, Level 16, State 13, Line 1
Device activation error. The physical file name 'qarun_diamond_48_brett' may be incorrect.
use master
go
sp_attach_db
'qarun_diamond_48_brett2', 'F:APPSSQL 7.0DatabaseDataqarun_diamond_48_brett2.mdf'
Message: Server: Msg 1801, Level 16, State 3, Line 1
Database 'qarun_diamond_48_brett' already exists.
I have also tried these statements wtih the EXEC sp_attach_db and EXEC sp_detach_db commands from within the Master db in Query Analyzer.
Any help would greatly be appreciated.
Thanks,
-Brett
Restore DB On SQL 2005 Multiple Files
Apr 9, 2007Hello,
I have a SQL 2000 DB. Current tables in sql 2000 DB are in single file. I am planningto migrate the DB to sql 2005. I am going to partition the tables in sql 2005 and have multiple files. What is the best way to do this? Would backup/restore work? If I restore onto sql 2005 from sql 2000 backup, will the tables spread over different files automatically or not? Any ideas will be appreciated...

Backup/Restore From/to Compressed Files
Apr 24, 2007Hi everyone,
already tried this in other SQL forums, but maybe i have some luck here.
I need mainly to restore database backups from customers. They arrive in all kind of formats (zip, rar, gz). I'd like to be able to restore those directly from the compressed file, because i'm talking up to 7GB rar files which take a while to uncompress in a separate step.
I'm working for 6 years in R&D environments, but mostly on Linux/Oracle where this is an easy task using pipes, but i haven't found a sinlge web page, post or even script to do this with MSSQL. The VDI is not really what i'm looking for, so aren't backup software like SQLBackup, Litespeed etc. because i can't force the customer to use those.
Anybody any idea or even the same problem maybe with solution?
Thx.

Aug 18, 2015I have a client that has POS software called Restaurant Pro Express (RPE) from www.pcamerica.com
Their old POS computer had a hardware failure, but I was able to attach the hard-drive to another computer and recover the data. RPE uses a MSSQL database system. However, my client doesn't seem to make backups very often - the last one is dated January 5, 2015.
I was able to copy the C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server folder over which contained the instance as well as all the data files - and has up-to-date information. The instance in the recovered Microsoft SQL Server folder was called MSSQL.1. I installed the RPE software on their new computer, and it too now has an instance called MSSQL10_50.PCAMERICA. The new computer is using MSSQL 2008 R2, while I believe the old computer would have been using MSSQL 2005.

SQL Server Admin 2014 :: Restore DB1 To DB2 (with Different Filegroups And Files Structure)
Mar 23, 2015What is the best method to restore a DBTest1 (with one .mdf and one .ldf) into DBTest2 (with one .mdf, multiple .ndf data files and with 4 filegroups associated with specific data files). I do not see how the one .mdf file (in DBTest1) can be separated into the other 4 filegroups (in DBTest2). This does not sounds like it is possible with Backup DBTest1/Restore to DBTEST2 or (Detach/Attach) because the underlying filegroup and file structure is different.
What method should be used to get the data and structure from DBTest1 (includes 1100 Tables and 550 GBs of Data) into DBTest2 (with 4 filegroups)? Is the following possible:
1) First, in DBTest2, execute a script to create tables/indexes on appropriate filegroups.
2) In DBTest2, use scripts to pull data from DBTest1 into DBTest2, for example INSERT INTO DBTest2.dbo.tables with SELECT FROM DBTest1.dbo.tables OR use SELECT/INTO DBTest2.dbo.tables FROM DBTest1.dbo.tables.
Or, is it possible to use the BULK INSERT or BULK COPY Options? Export/Import Wizard?
Does the Create Index step needs to be done after the data is loaded into DBTest2?
RESTORE DATABASE Timeout In SQL 2000 With Large Backup Files
Sep 11, 2007
Hello,
I am attempting to restore the database from within VB.NET application I am making the following 3 calls:
RESTORE FileListOnly FROM DISK = 'C:MyDatabase.dat'
USE Master RESTORE DATABASE MyDatabase FROM DISK = 'C:MyDatabase.dat' WITH NORECOVERY, MOVE 'MyDatabase' TO 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLDataMyDatabase.mdf', MOVE 'MyDatabase_log' TO 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLDataLDFMyDatabase.ldf', REPLACE
RESTORE DATABASE MyDatabase FROM DISK = 'C:MyDatabase.dat'
using SMO. This logic works fine with small *.dat files, however when using *.dat file of about 4Gb I get an error on the 3d restore database call:
ExecuteNonQuery failed for Database 'master'.
An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch.
Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.
Operator aborted backup or restore. See the error messages returned to the console for more details.

The same program/logic also works fine when I use MS SQL 2005 and it runs fine from MS SQL 2005 Query Analyzer for both 2005 and 2000 databases. There seem to be only problem with MS SQL 2000 from within VB.NET. Anybody has any idea? I'd appreciate any response. Thanks

Script Task: How To Compare Files On FTP With Existing Files In Local Folder Before Transfer!
Apr 24, 2008In the first step of my SSIS package I need to get files from FTP and dump it/them in a local directory, but it's more than that, the logic is like this:
1. If no file(s) found, stop executing and send email saying no file(s) found;
2. If file(s) found, then compare it/them with existing files in our archive folder; if file(s) already exist in archive folder, stop executing and send email saying file(s) already existed, if file(s) not in archive folder yet, then transfer it/them to the local directory for processing.
I know i have to use a script task to do this and i did some research and found examples for each of the above 2 steps and not both combined, so that's why I need some help here to get the logic incorporated right.
Thanks for the help in advance and i apologize for the long lines of code!
