I am trying to set up a process where a differential backup is taken daily and applied to another DB. For some reason I cannot get the diff backup to restore. The full DB backup restored fine.
Server: Msg 3136, Level 16, State 1, Line 4
Cannot apply the differential backup on device 'diff' to database 'test'.
Server: Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 4
Backup or restore operation terminating abnormally.
Any suggestions? Thanks!

Guys,
In 2000, if I need to restore Transactional backups I have to do it one by one followed by Full Backup or Differntial backups.
I am wondering is there any way I can restore all Transactional files in One Batch in SQL Server 2005?
Many Thanks

I recieved 4 database's that were backed up from our client. They are using SQL Server 2000 and each of the files has no extension.
When attempting to restore a database of the same name in SQL Server Express 2k5 I recieve the following error.
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The media set has 2 media families but only 1 are provided
Is there a way to restore the backup without the log backup?
Thank you

I backup a database at the begining of each month with a full and then do nightly diffs on it.
For the same database I run daily fulls and 10 minute log backups.
these two backups create / append to two different backup files.
The problem im having is that I cant restore the Differential backup set. SQL seems to restore the full just fine but alwasy throws an error when its about to start to retore the last diff. now forgive me but I clicked OK on the message and I cant find any record of the error in the logs but its something like:
"SQL cannot restore the database as the database has not been restored to the previous correct state"
is my 10 min TS log backups screwing up the DIff chain somehow?
this is really doing my head in. any help appreciated.

I recently installed a trial version of Sql12k on my laptop. Since 1st of November I've been creating tables without problems (15) and different schemas.I would like to emphasize that both mdf and ldf files are allocated in my USB3 portable disk. is that a problems for Sql12K? SSMS had stuck just for 20 sec or so. Then, system itself kill the task. A huge surprise when I restarted again... all the databases including the last one.. without objects. I mean, user databases...
Where are my logins? Where are my tables and schemas? Jesus christ.Sql logs inform the following (in all the moment my USB hardisk was properly connected)

Until yesterday I had a server running SQL Server 2008 R2 - with all the SQL Server DB files on an attached disk array.
The server died - so I attached the disk array to a new server - and all the DB data files are visible there.
I installed SQL Server 2014 on the new server and am trying to work out how to point it at the existing database files.
I also have backups of the DB's - but they will take ages to copy over and restore - so it would be much easier to just use the db files. Should I restore the master db first (easy as its small)?
I am working on a task. Currently we are taking a database backup and keeping that backups in a folder. The backups doesn't have time stamp on it. My task is need to get the latest backup and copy that backups into some other server and then restore the database from there.I am planning to create SSIS package.Do we need script task for this task.How to get the .bak with latest create or moidified date. For now we doesn't have timestamp so need to go based on modified date?

I am cleaning database backup history as "Delete history if 4 months old" for backup file, and "Delete history if 1 week old" for Log file back.
lets say, I have disaster after 3 months, and I recover database with data and log backup files. Will I be able to recover with 3 month old backup file with just 1 week Log file backup. As I am keeing my Log backups only for 1 week.
Thanks,
We have a set of databases some are fully read-only others have read-only file groups, is there any way to restore backups of these taken on an MSDE 2000 to an SQL Express 2005 instance?
When doing the inplace upgrade we change these to read-write before the upgrade and set them back after the upgrade.
These databases are used in the field by customers althought the controlled upgrade requires a backup before (and blocks if it fails) and tries a backup after if the post upgrade backup fails (due to disk space) we might need to recover from this odd situation.
The only solution I have is install MSDE some place restore to this then do the controlled upgrade again, any other ideas?
Hi,
Is there any option to restore a specific object from a full database backup file?
The space allocated to the Log in question is 180 GB. During this time period I was running TLog backups every 5 minutes, yet the log continued to chew through to 80 GB used, even after the process was complete and a final TLog backup had been taken. It continued to stay very large until the Full backup was complete -- or something else that I'm unaware of completed. Like every other DBA I typically take a TLog backup to shrink the log, but what appeared to be the case here was the Full completed and it released the used log space. All said, will Transaction Log backups not free up the log during Full backups?

View 5 Replies View Relatedpassing serialised objects to a stored procedure for the purpose of data inserts. I see this as being a way to handle multiple row inserts efficiently.
However, in my limited use of XML data I am not so sure how to link the data when I have a dependency on another "object" within the serialised XML.
Below is a code snippet showing what I have so far.
The first insert statement works fine - but how to retrieve the identifier created by the DB - I want to use an SQL statement that finds the record in the table based on the XML representation (of the PluginInfo), allowing me to insert the ConfigurationInfo with the correct reference to the PluginInfo

DECLARE @TransactionCount AS INT

I did a full backup of a db from one server(Express2005) and trying to restore it to a different instance of SQL2005 on the same development machine. (Also had some fulltext columns if that means anything)
Many failures but finally got it to report all was successful except the icon in Object Explorer shows (Restoring...) with no indication of any real activity going on. It's a tiny database with hardly any data in it.
Just not sure what the heck is going on there. It also won't let me into the database until this the (Restoring...) goes away.
Any advice on how to get this thing finished out?
I have a link that inserts postid, catid, and postdate. I am trying to get count of catid(how many times its in the table) then display the number on a page. i have never tried this before. one more thing. Can you put a datalist inside a formview when the formview is databound already? Can someone help? Thank you.
I am trying to restore from a backup of an individual filegroup in SQL Server 7.0. I have backed up the individual filegroups, and I want to restore one of them (not the whole database). The process in EM is almost the same as restoring the entire database, only you choose the radio button 'Filegroups' and the files/filegroups you want to restore.
The restoration appears to complete sucessfully, but afterward, my database seems to be permanently loading. In other words, in EM the database is greyed out and you cannot use it anymore. It stays like this until you drop the database altogether. Is this a bug? Has anyone else had this problem or does anyone have experience restoring from filegroups sucessfully???
What is the best strategy for backing up individual tables in a database, not the whole database? Thank you for your help.
Best Regards,
Mark
I am recieving complete row in one single column and I have pipe delimeter in this row . I want to retrieve the data in individual columns...Currently row is in one column

Here's my two tables:
tblClients
--------------------------------------------------
ClientID (varchar(3)) | ClientName (varchar(100))
--------------------------------------------------
001 | First
002 | Second
tblProjects
---------------------------------------------------
ProjectID (varchar(6)) | ProjectName (varchar(100))
---------------------------------------------------
001001 | First Project1
001002 | First Project2
002001 | Second Project1
002002 | Second Project2
As you can see, the ClientID is the first 3 digits of the ProjectID, signifying that a certain project belongs to that client. I know it's a bad design, but I can't change the DB, I have to use it.
The problem is that I need to join the two tables based on the ClientID, but I don't know how to just retrieve the first 3 numbers in the ProjectID.
I need something like:
tblClients INNER JOIN tblProjects ON
tblClients.ClientID = tblProjects.First3DigitsOfTheProjectID
Hi,
In previous versions of SQL Server you were able to execute single steps within a DTS package. It doesn't seemt to be possible in visual studio. Does anybody know otherwise?
Thanks
Suppose my database has 3 table A though C and I need to get the number of records in each. I could do it as individual selects like
SELECT 'A' AS 'Table', COUNT(*) AS 'Count' FROM A
SELECT 'B' AS 'Table', COUNT(*) AS 'Count' FROM B
SELECT 'C' AS 'Table', COUNT(*) AS 'Count' FROM C
or
SELECT 'A' AS 'Table', COUNT(*) AS 'Count' FROM A
UNION
SELECT 'B' AS 'Table', COUNT(*) AS 'Count' FROM B
UNION
SELECT 'C' AS 'Table', COUNT(*) AS 'Count' FROM C
Is there any problem in unioning statements like these? In reality there were over a hundred tables and the TSQL was generated by looping through SYSOBJECTS. I eventually used the first construct as the XML was simpler to generate.
In Pablo Castro webcast, First Look at ADO.NET 2.0, he mentions the use of UpdateBatchSize which I think would be handy.However, I was not able to get it to work.
Dim t As New Global.System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter("Select * from Table_1", Global.System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("ConnectionString1").ConnectionString)Dim d As New Global.System.Data.DataTablet.FillSchema(d, SchemaType.Source)Dim cb As New Global.System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommandBuilder(t)For c As Int32 = 1 To 10000Dim r As Global.System.Data.DataRow = d.NewRowr("id") = Global.System.Guid.NewGuidr("val") = CType(Rnd(), Int32)d.Rows.Add(r)Nextt.UpdateBatchSize = 100t.Update(d)d.Dispose()t.Dispose()
What ends up showing in Sql Server Profiler (Sql Server 2005) is each Insert being executed in it's own statement:exec sp_executesql N'INSERT INTO [Table_1] ([id], [val]) VALUES (@p1, @p2)',N'@p1 uniqueidentifier,@p2 int',@p1='3793CB5E-3B7A-45E7-9A53-0BD528BB6B07',@p2=1
I think I made this example very simple and yet can't fathom why it won't batch the statements.
I'm somewhat aware of SqlBulkCopy and was very pleased with that speed, but don't think it would handle the Update,Delete,Insert that the SqlDataAdapter.Update would.
Originally started using xsd DataSets until I saw the data tutorials in the Learning section here in which case I copied out the autogenerated TableAdapter classes and fuddling with them to do what I want since batching was not something I saw in TableAdapters.
Does anyone see what I'm missing here?Nathan
Please can someone advise me on how I can create a statement that will query each individual row within a table.
As the data will vary month by month I'm unable to state the amount of rows that will need to be queried.
An Overview:
We have web-based application with a SQL back-end. When changes are made to a record a copy of that info is sent to another table (a quick snapshot, name, date, number, department etc.). At the end of the month I need to apply this data to an imported itemised phone bill so that I can make sure that if the mobile phone had been reallocated to another person I can change the cost accordingly.
As it stands the operator has to print a copy of the phone details before reallocating to another person. Then at the end of the month manually changes the data within the itemised bill by referring to the printouts. Ideally I would prefer to automate the whole process.
Please find below the script - its very much in its infancy!!
CREATE PROCEDURE sp_reallocate AS
select * from tbl_mobile_reallocate
order by allocation_change_date
update tbl_mobile_import
set empno = tbl_mobile_reallocate.empno from tbl_mobile_reallocate
where tbl_mobile_import.mobno = tbl_mobile_reallocate.mobno
and tbl_mobile_import.invoice_date <= tbl_mobile_reallocate.change_date
update tbl_mobile_reallocate
set status = 'Closed'
GO
I think jthis is a bug. I have a table created and populated on its own filegroup. I backup the db(all filegroups) and the trans log then I drop the one table. When I try to restore from my backups, it insists that I back up the trans log again. I do, then do the restore of both the filegroup and the trans log. The restore finishes, but my table is still not there and I can never get it back.
Any one with comments please help

First of all, I`m a very new entrant to the world of SQL Server. So I`ll make some mistakes.
I need to know how to write a stored procedure that will insert or update INDIVIDUAL rows. All the documentation I`ve seen is pretty coy on how to actually do this.
Any actual examples, or any tips at all would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much.
I am writing a utility that browses all steps, connections, and tasks in a given DTS package. One of the functions is to rename each item using its description, ie, removing spaces, formatting it, and then appending it to the standard DTSTask_ActiveScriptTask_MyCustomNameDerivedFromTh eDescription. I am being sure to change everything to match this in both the Step and task for a given set. The behaviour that is occuring is this. The package appears to be named correctly, and even seems to run correctly, but none of the precedence constraints, it, OnFail, OnSuccess, OnCOmpletion seem to show up in the DTS Designer Environment. The package does seem to be running correctly, any idea what would cause this behaviour?
View 1 Replies View RelatedIn my database I have a table for Users, with an int primary key, and a table for Connections, with a combined primary key consisting of two UserID foreign keys. (the smallest first)
At the point I am stuck I have one UserID, lets call it current_user, and a column returned by a select statement consisting of UserIDs. Some of these IDs will likely be smaller than current_user, and some will likely be larger.
What i need to do is construct a view of two columns, combining each of the UserIDs in the column I have with current_user, with the smallest UserID of each pair residing in the first column, and the largest in the second column.
The point of this is to then SELECT the connections identified by the UserID pairs.
I suspect I could accomplish this if I could set individual fields in the a view, but I seem to have missed (or forgotten) that lecture. Anybody want to clue me in?
I have SQL Server running on our web server located at a managed hosting site at Rackspace. I've got some developers who are going to be editing various sites and will need access to specific databases. Is there something built in to MSSQL, or a third party app, which will allow for this kind of remote access? They will be doing everything from restructuring these DB's to just inputting data.
Thanks!

In SQL Server, I need to create a table from 3 different individual tables. I am new to the SQL Scene, so i want to know the best way to go about this. Each table has different fields, so that is making it difficult (at least for me). How about creating 1 table, that is composed of 3 other tables?
I know this is bad practice, but our District Manager wants to see production for his 'team' and whoever set this up back in the beginning gave each individual employee a different table, with custom fields (Why?!?!?!?!) so now I am trying to merge those 3 into 1, but want to get some insight on the best way to do this since there are different fields in each table and the merged (or master) table needs to have all of those fields.
Good day,
I have a Job that runs every half an hour, and has about 30 steps. If a step fails it moves on to the next step (the steps are not dependant on one another)... However I would like to receive notification if that occurs. I have SQL 2005, with database mail enabled and set up (works fine for other jobs)... The question is how do I get it to send me an email if a single step fails, however the job on a whole succeeds?
Do I need to set up a step between each job?
Step 1 An actual step, on failure: step 2 On success Step3
Step 2 A step that emails the failure of step 1, then goes to step 3
Step 3 An actual step
etc etc... Or is there a better way?
