SQL SERVER 2005. RESTORE DATABASE FROM ONE SERVER TO OTHER
May 29, 2008
Hello, I have two servers (both of them with sqlserver2005) :
SERVER3 with the
Database: ReportServer$SQLSERVER2005TFSTempDB
and SERVER5 with the Dabase: ReportServerTempDB.
I''ve got a backup of the database in SERVER3, and I want to restore it in the database of SERVER5. As you see, they have different names(I don't know if this is a problem....)
So I try doing the following:
RESTORE DATABASE [ReportServerTempDB]
FROM DISK = N'C:TFSReportServer$SQLSERVER2005TFSTempDB_backup_200805282200.bak'
WITH FILE = 1, NOUNLOAD, REPLACE, STATS = 10
MOVE 'ReportServer$SQLSERVER2005TFSTempDB' TO
'C:Archivos de programaMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataReportServerTempDB.mdf',
MOVE 'ReportServer$SQLSERVER2005TFSTempDB_log' TO
'C:Archivos de programaMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataReportServerTempDB_log.ldf',
GO
And I am getting the following error:
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 4
Incorrect syntax near 'MOVE'.
Does anyone know why is throwing this error?
Thanks a lot!
Hi All I have Computer is setuped SQL Server 2000 and SQL server 2005 when I restore SQL Server 2005 it's OK but when it's not OK when I restore in SQL Server 2000. The Error as follows:
This is a very urgent requirement of my client having 200 stores and one Head office. the HO has just installed SQL-Server 2005, The HO sends small backups of the data related to stock transfer which needs to be restored at stores. It was working find when both the HO and stores were SQL-Server 2000. but the process has come to a dead halt as the HO has SQL-Server 2005. It is not possible to convert the stores immediately. please help me out.
I have never done this in a DR scenario before. What I used to do in SQL Server 2000 was apply the logins to a new installation of SQL 2000 then recover the application databases. I'm using 2005 now and I'm in a different mode where I would like to be able to recover the system (master, model, msdb) to a different server with the same SQL Server 2005 build ---- 9.0.3054. I'm following the procedures from Microsoft where they state to place the instance in single user mode first then invoke SQLCMD then perform the restore. Sounds simple enough. C:> SQLCMD > RESTORE DATABASE MASTER from DISK = 'Z:MINIDRmaster_backup_200804200315.bak'
The console is coming back with a message that the backup set holds a backup other than the existing master database. So I suppose that this cannot be done and is only intended for recovery on the same instance.
I have a file backup database SQL Server 2000 I want to restore it to SQL Server 2005. But it failed. I try : Database ( right-click) - Restore Database - From Device - Specify Backup Add Locate Backup File. I must choose File of Type is All File so that i can find file backup from SQL 2000, if i choose File of Type is *.bak,*.trn so i cannot find that file. And then i choose OK all. But it failed. The error is below :

I was running Small Business Server 2003 with MS SQL Server 2000. I put backups of all my SQL Server 2000 databases on hard disk d: and the operating system and applications on c:/. I then reformatted c:/ (but left d:/ intact) and installed Windows XP Home. Then I installed MS SQL Server 2005 Developer's Edition.
I would like to now restore the backups of the SQL Server 2000 databases (still intact on drive d:/) to SQL Server 2005, but I get a variety of error messages.
I suspect that I am going about this the wrong way. I have done several hours of research in the documentation without success. I cannot attach the SQL Server 2000 database to SQL Server 2005 because it is a backup, not a database. I cannot migrate the databases as part of the installation of SQL Server 2005 because (a) they are back-ups, and (b) I don't have SQL Server 2000 installed when I install SQL Server 2005.
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) ?

SQL Server 2005 TR with IU/QUS - Restore from a backup
Im trying to set-up the above using sp1. It all works fine until the final step, creating a subscription through sp_addarticle and Im getting the following error:
Msg 8152, Level 16, State 10, Procedure sp_MSget_synctran_commands, Line 198 String or binary data would be truncated.
This worked fine on my laptop with a small table with a couple of columns.Now Ive looked at this error and its like
select * from #art_commands
The table only has 49 columns in it, so its not huge.
What are my options for solving/getting around this problem:
1. Try and fix sp_MSget_synctran_commands, from memory, #art_commands has a nvarchar(max) column and Im wondering if this is related. must admit, havent really looked solidly at this sp yet.
2. SP2 doesnt look like it fixes this problem.
3. Create a bespoke method to replicate.
4. anymore for anymore?
It will be impossible to synchronize the databases so this restore from backup was my only option. Im a bit stuck now, can anyone help?
I have a SQL Server 2005 Database that I would like to export to SQL Server Express.

Hi, Our Sharepoint of TFS was down a couple of days ago. By luck, we had fully backed up SQL database. Now, the problem is, I uninstalled everything and tried to move TFS to a new server machine on the domain. I installed freshly everything and tried to restore all the databases (with tables also). Now the problems are these:
1 - Since there are lots of different backup-restore procedures telling on the Internet from some forums and this forum also: What should i do basically to make the configuration of Sharepoint and Reporting Services to make them work correctly?
2 - Secondly, even if i fail in the problem above, I, at least, want to save the source control files and sharepoint files. Where can I find them and how can I take them back to my new TFS installation?
3 - If these problems exist and Suppose on a new project on the new installation, i create new WI's, documents (with new Version Control information), and new SPS configuration. And on a new release,the problems are resolved. Is there some way that I can merge the former Backup with the new installation's database?

Hello, I have a question related to SQL Server DB Restore scenario:
1. I have taken full, log backup from the old servers and restore in New server. (This is where my old system crashed, I installed SQL Server in a new environement)
Can I restore old environment Master, MSDB to new environment Matser, MSDB? How it works?
2. Is there any better way to have Master image on new environment? How we can update registry values in Windows 2003 environement? How we can clone any thing, if that person is brain dead (coma) like in OS Clone?
We have been using Sql Server 2005 Compact Edition 3.1 RDA synchronization method successfully on Sql Server 2000 database. Recently we moved the database to Sql Server 2005, sync doesn't work anymore, it just hangs on one table. On further investigation, we found out that it's the index on that table that causes this. We removed the index, it works fine. We are wondering the root cause, removing the index is not a solution for us. Any thoughts?. Thanks.
