Hi all
We have a lot of SQL2000 databases and would like just backup and restore to SQL2005.
Is there anything that I need to look/aware at it apart of DTS stuff (we are not using much DTS).
Does the Level80 sets on SQL2005 for each database will have backward compatibility with SQL2000?
Thanks
many thanks!

I need to create a copy of a SQL 2000 database in another server which has SQL 7.0 installed. When I do a backup and restore, it gives me the following error :
Server: Msg 3154, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
The backup set holds a backup of a database other than the existing 'inventmast' database.
Server: Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.
It seems to be like a downward compatability issue. Is there any other way to restore a sql2000 db onto sql 7 ??
Thanks

Hello,
Restoring a DB from sql 2005 (which is located on my local computer) into sql 2000 (which is located on the server) and I am getting this type of message:

Hello,
In the process of migrating a logshipped database (in non recovery mode) from SQL2000 SP4 to SQL2005 SP2, I got the following error (sorry for the french translation!):
---

Of course, the restore operation performs well when the destination is SQL2000. I suspect the integrity checker of SQL2005 to be less permissive, hence I run a checkdb on the original DB, which raise several errors, which are quite difficult for me to analyse:

Is there any easy option you can see to operate the transfer, since the backups I have from the DB already contain the data corruption?

How to restore a database dump file (.BAK) that backed up from SQL2000 server to a SQL 7.0 server?Please help.Saiyou

We replicate a SQL2000 database (DataBaseA) to a SQL2000 database (DataBaseB) by using the Restore function and hasn't change its logical name but only the physical data path and file name. It is running fine for a year. We use the same way to migrate the DataBaseB to a new SQL2005 server with the Restore function and the daily operation is running perfect. However, when we do the Backup of DatabaseB in the SQL2005, it just prompt the error message
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The backup of full-text catalog 'DataBaseA' is not permitted because it is not online. Check errorlog file for the reason that full-text catalog became offline and bring it online. Or BACKUP can be performed by using the FILEGROUP or FILE clauses to restrict the selection to include only online data. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
Please note we left the DataBaseA in the old SQL2000 server.
Please help on how we can delete the Full-text catalog from DatabaseB so we can do a backup
Many Thanks

I have a medical records system, SoapWare v4.90, that uses MSDE (SQL2000) databases. Due to the 2gb limitation, I am trying to migrate over to SQL 2005 (Standard or Express) which I have heard works fine. The SoapWare has a datamanager that allows me to log in to the MSDE instance, detach the SoapWare databases from msde (as well as do backups, etc) which I can confirm are detached.
Then I log back into a SQL2005 database instance using the datamanager and try to attach the database. This is what their pictured instructions demonstrate. However, I get the following error:
Database 'sw_charts' cannot be upgraded because it is read-only or has read-only files. Make the database or files writeable, and rerun recovery.
Of course, some of the entries will be read only, since doctors have to sign off the charts and are not allowed to subsequently change them. But I should still be able to switch over to sql 2005?!?!?!?
Or... is there a way to attach the databases to SQLExpress manually?
Help pls?
I have seen this before. A 2000 restore fails, leaving the database thinking it is being restored but the restore job failed and errors when it is restarted. EM is clueless. I believe there is a proc to reset some flag. Can you share it with me???
Thanks!

Trying to keep out sysadmins & sa during/between database RESTORE
Configuration:
WINNT Server Enterprise 4.0 w/SP5
SQL Server 7 Enterprise & SP1
2 SQL Servers:
Production Server
Standby server
I Backup (full backup) databases to disk on primary server (logical backup devices are physicaly located on a Standby server (dedicated gigabit NIC in each server for this process). Transaction logs are applied to the Standby server throughout the day.
Problem:
How to keep out "sa" and sysadmins from a database while I'm restoring (or between restores) to a standby server?
The database being restored cannot be in use during a restore.
If a DBA forgets that this process is happening, the statement fails (RESTORE)for the database they happen to be in at the time of the restore.
Example restore statement:
Standby Server -
RESTORE DATABASE databasename FROM database_dd WITH DBO_ONLY, REPLACE, STANDBY = 'g:Mssql7FromPrimaryDatabaseName_undo.ldf'
I could restrict Domain sysadmin access and change sa password. I could also put the database in "Single user" mode, however this could become problem if my process disconnects and then someone else connects - then my process is locked out. What I'm really looking for is to lock out all activity for a database that is in "standby mode" except for RESTORE processes.
Any ideas??

Can anyone tell me of an EASY way to migrate a a database from a SQL 7 server to a SQL 2000 server (two different machines)?
Everything that I have found is only for upgrading SQL 7 to SQL 2000 and this isn't what I need.
Two groups in our company merged into one. The first group has a SQL 7 server that the lease is about to expire on and the second group (mine) has a newer SQL 2000 server that we need to move all of the databases to.
I have tried DTS. It failed. I tried backing up the 7 server and restoring to the new server. It failed.
Are there any other suggestions?
Thanks,

Hello,I am trying to clean up a database I inherited.I have an 80GB SQL 2000 database with 20 datafiles each 4096 in size. Ihave been able to remove unneeded data and am now trying to clean up.If I do a Shrink on each datafile would able to recover on average 2gbout of 4g, however I would prefer to have 10 full datafiles and 10empty. (or better yet 5 full 8GB datafiles and 15 empty)Can someone point me in the right direction on how to move the dataaround so that dont have 20 partially filled datafiles?I have noticed that I can shrink a single file and use the "empty thefile option (and move data to other files in the group)." option. Ihave already done this to the last 2 datafiles as a test but not surehow to do this on a large scale. I have also set the 1st 10 datafilesto be able to grow to 8 GB.For lack of a better way to say this, Is there a way to defrag orreorganize the data ables so everything "moves to the front".BTW, I have already run a maintenance plan to reorganize the data andindex pages.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIf I restore a SQL 2000 DB into 2005 it upgrades it for me.
When restoring a DB to a new server/instance of SQL, in SQL 2000 I had to carry out the sp_changedbowner procedure after the restore was complete.
Is the equivalent procedure when restoring a SQL 2000 DB to 2005 to go to the schema for the restored database, find the schema with the name of the SQL 2000 db owner and change the schema owner?
OR alternatively run the following query where mark is the db owner in 2000 and lladmin in the new user in 2005 ;
ALTER AUTHORIZATION ON SCHEMA::mark TO lladmin;
GO
The database is SQL Server 2000. Recover Plan = 'Simple'. Maintenance Plan always fails when DBCC tries to put database in single-user mode so it can do the backup, if there is a user has a connection to it from EssBase. No queries running - just a connection. How can I get SQL Server to automatically kill the connections so it can do the backup?

I have an application which stores records on a local SQL Express and I need to move the records to a SQL 2000 database.

I'm trying to use a stored procedure to accomplish this, but get an error "Invalid object name 'ngtxa4-rsmsz-01.newpurchase.tblRequest'."

Can anyone tell me why my SQL2000 database has grown aprox 15 % and my Log file 20,000 % when I attach it to SQL2005 .I've Thousands of Databases to Upgrade, but with the log file increasing to more than the size of the Database Its going to be a struggle !
It also takes a fair ammount of time to attach,
I suspect there is some reindexing going on , as when I try to reattach to SQL 2000 I get index errors ?
Is the re anything I can do in advance to reduce the database growth ?
I know I can truncate the log afterward but the peak diskspace consumed during my Migration may be an issue !
Thanks for any help
Hi
I have to migrate a SQL2000 database to SQL2005, I tried to use CopyDatabase Wizard (CDW) but invariably stopped all processes (may be for permissions, but I really I don€™t know) so I decided to detach de database, copy files to new server and attach it to SQL2005, it apparently works well, except for the fact that Schemas where created with the name of the users of SQL2000.
Is that correct?
Could it affect the performance or any other thing?
Is correct to do what I did?
Could be another problem in the recently attached database?
(Compatibility, data loss, corrupted structures, collation or something like that)

View 2 Replies View RelatedAnybody 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?
