SQL Server 2000 Databases To SQL Server 2005? Enterprise Manager And Management Stuio At The Same Server?
Feb 13, 2008When I proposed start to use SQL Server 2005 for new VS 2005 web sites, one of my co-workers responded that
we will update the old SQL Server 2000 databases to SQL Server 2005 when we are ready to use 2005 SQL Server.
Questions:
1. Any expected problems to upgrade old 2000 databases to new 2005 SQL Server?
2. I have installed both 2005/Management Studio Express and 2000/Enterprise Manager in my PC. Any expected
problems when running both 2000 and 2005 SQL Server at the same database server?
3. What is the best configuration for running SQL Server 2005 when we have old 2000 databases? Upgade or not upgrade?
TIA,

Jun 19, 2007Hi,
I've got a question regarding attaching/restoring of DBs and wonder if anyone could help me out.
Does SQL Server 2000 provide a functionality to attach/restore DB automatically? ie, some kind of polling service to attach/restore DB that were detached previously?

Merging Two Different SQL Server 2000 Databases With Same Schemas In A Single Database
Jan 7, 2008Hi,
I have two databases lets say DB1 and DB2.
Schemas for both databases is same.
In both database schemas there are tables which has identity columns as primary key.
Now i want to merge these two databases in a single database say DB3.
It may also possible that some master records in both databases are common so they should not repeat in DB3
Is there any way so that i can do it quickly and as soon as possible.
Thanks in advance

Service Broker Not Working For Restored Databases (SQL 2000 Databases Restored On 2005)
Jan 24, 2006I just restored my SQL server 2000 database on the SQL server 2005. after this i ran the Service broker sample ("Hello World") on this database by changing the AdventureWorks name to the new database name. The "setup.sql" runs fine. When i run the "SendMessage.sql" i was not getting any rows in the output (The message was not getting inserted into the queue). I checked the Service broker is enabled on this databased using the query "select is_broker_enabled from sys.databases where name = 'newdbname' " It was 1. I even tried the ALTER DATABASE SET ENABLE_BROKER. but it didnt work.
When i tried the sample on a newly created database it worked fine.
Is there any solution to make the restored database to work for service broker.
Thanks

Apr 30, 2008I have to merge the data from two databases, one is in SQL Server 2005 format, one is in 2000. The merged data will then reside on a SQL Server 2000 platform. Is there an easy way to do this through Management Studio or Enterprise Manager? Or will we have to export the data from the 2005 database to a flat file and import it into a new 2000 database. And then do the merge?

Transferring Databases From MSDE 2000 To SQL 2000
Jan 28, 2007Trying to transfer databases from MSDE to SQL. When I use SQLEnterprise Manager - DTS - import or export, it works for the firstdatabase, but then fails for the others. I select the to and fromdatabases using DTS - Import - 'MS OLE DB Provider for SQL Server',then select 'Copy objects and data between SQL Servers'. It failswith the generic error message: 'Copy objects failed', nothingfurther. I tried to just copy data, and it doesn't work totally. Ontwo databases, it said that it copied everything, but when I go inunder Enterprise manager, some of the tables are incomplete, i.e. nodata, table shows up in the list, but if you try to look at it, itsays that it is missing or empty. Also, one table was not evencopied. In the other two cases, I get errors, does not copy alltables. I get errors, like insert fails, but the column it referencesfor the table does not even exist in that table. Any suggestionswould be appreciated.
View 2 Replies View RelatedRolling Back SQL Server 2005 Databases Back To SQL Server 2000
Sep 22, 2006Does anybody know of a way to rollback SQL Server 2005
databases back to SQL Server 2000? Is there a way of doing it without
resorting to Copy Database Wizard? I love to find a way of attaching a SS 2005 database
to a SS 2000 instance without any issues.
I recently upgraded to SS 2005 and I am very unhappy with the SS 2005 and I
want to rollback to SS 2000, which was a lot more stable. I am having
several major issues that are affecting my whole company's day-to-day
operations and the managers are not happy. Some of the issues include
night time batch running very sluggish for no apparent reason. This is a
biggest problem because it only occurs once or so a week and causes a disturbance
with the daily activities when the night time processing isn€™t completed on
time. The rest of the time, the batch processing runs great, even a little better then on SS 2000. I
don't believe it is a matter of my application needing to be retuned because if
that was the case, then why isn't it running sluggish every night? Also,
it's never the same day that the sluggish behavior occurs. If it was occurring
on the same night, then I would have something to investigate within our
application, but it doesn't. Another issue that I am having involves a
night time job that restores a copy of the production database to the Data
Warehouse server to be used for updating the data warehouse. Again, most
of the time it runs great (~2 1/2 hours), but once or twice a week, it goes
stupid and takes 6 1/2 hours for no apparent reason. Again, it is not happening
the same day either, which could give me something to invesigate. On SS 2000, this same job ran flawlessly. Never I did I run into situation that the
database restoration took that long to run. Even another issue involves a SQL Server Agent Job that was put into suspended
state. What's a suspended state and how can I get it out of suspended
state? I can find no information about suspended state in BOL. I
did a Google and nothing came up. If this suspended state was put
in for security reasons, great, but then tell me how I can remove the suspended
state. I am also not happy with the
fact that I can't get accurate information about the queries that are actively
running at that particular moment. In SS 2000, when I noticed high CPU
usage on the server, I would run the sp_who2 active stored proc and it would
show me all the active thread and how much CPU it was consuming. I would
then find the running threads with the highest CPU numbers and investigate the
query and see if we could improve it. Now in SS 2005, I get in the same
situation and run the sp_who2 stored proc, and there is no smoking gun.
All of the active threads are showing very little CPU usage, which I am very
suspect of. What the heck happen to sp_who2? I looked at some of
the other ways of looking at running processes (i.e... sys.sysprocesses) and
they don't appear to be giving the information that I need.
I am very unhappy and I just want to roll back to SS 2000 and wait a couple of
years before I upgrade to SS 2005.

View 4 Replies View RelatedCopy Databases From 7 To 2000
Jun 17, 2002Hi,
I am preparing to move from sql7 to sql2000 and and considering the copy database wizard to move the databases. The thing that I am concerned with is this passage from BOL
"A database with the identical name on both source and destination servers cannot be moved or copied"
This to me says that the database name cannot be the same on source and destination servers. Yet, you would want the database name to be the same from an application point of view (developers get real nasty when you change database information on them).
Does this mean I cannot use the copy database wizard? Must I use sp_attatch_db?
Thanks in advance

Managing SQL 2000 Databases On Vista...
Feb 23, 2007I have one database at an ISP running on a SQL 2000 server. Under Windows XP Pro, I installed SQL 2000 administrative tools then I could use the database manager as well as the query tool to manage my database.
I have upgraded my machine to Windows Vista Ultimate. SQL 2000 client services won't install under Windows Vista.
Under Windows Vista, I was able to create an ODBC component that connected successfully to the SQL 2000 remote database, but I no longer have a transaction tool or a gui to manage the tables.
My goals are simple: I want to be able to view/add/drop tables and data using some sort of GUI. I would also like to have some sort of SQL transaction client. I don't need to do any high level database management, just view/change/add/delete tables in the one database that I own on that server.
My isp is NOT going to upgrade their SQL. I do not own Microsoft Access or Microsoft Excel. What FREE software options do I have, given my goals?

Accessing Multiple Databases From Stored Procedure In SQL 2000
May 16, 2006Hi ,
I have around 5 databases with same structure used to store data for different locations and services.
I have created an intermediate database which will have all the stored procedures to access data from above 5 databases.
My queries are common to all the databases. so,I would like to pass database name as an argument to my stored proc and execure query on specified database.
I tried this doing using "USE Databasename " Command. but it says ...We can not use "USE command " in stored proc or triggers. so ..what i did is ..
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CREATE PROCEDURE TestDB_access(@dbname varchar(100))
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @localDB varchar(100)
Set @LocalDB=@dbname
if @LocalDB='XYZ'
EXEC ('USE XYZ ')
elseif @LocalDB='ABC'
EXEC ('USE ABC')
Select * from Mytable
END
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When I run this from my database , it gives me an error "unable to find table "mytable".
What is the best way to make my queries work with all the databases.
Thanks in advance

Why Is My Database Re-indexing Script Not Able To Shrink Databases? (MSSQL 2000)
Aug 3, 2007Hi,
Currently we have a variety of SQL 2000 (and 2005) database servers, we are having issues with the maintenance plan of a few SQL2000 boxes where they no longer have enough hard disk space to do a full index-rebuild on the system.
Now we want to re-build the databases indexes approximately once a week, or maybe a little less often, in the past this has worked fine with maintenance plans.
However, we now have issues because we have some databases in offline mode, and we are quite low on disk space with no plans for hardware upgrades anytime soon.
The temporary solution is to turn the index rebuilds off.
I have been working on a script that will:
Cycle through each database and within that database:
Go through each table
Run a DBCC DBREINDEX on the table
Move on to the next table
Once the reindexing of one database is complete
IF the database is not in simple mode
Backup the transaction log
Run a DBCC SHRINKDATABASE with the required amount of free space
Go to the next database until all are complete.The logic is quite simple but so far this has not worked, it would appear something is locking the transaction log until the script exits.
Now the script works fine excluding the shrinkdatabase, I always get:
DBCC execution completed. If DBCC printed error messages, contact your system administrator. [SQLSTATE 01000]
Shrinking database: inf_dev target percentage: 10 at: Aug 2 2007 5:33PM [SQLSTATE 01000]
Cannot shrink log file 2 (INF_PROD_Log) because all logical log files are in use. [SQLSTATE 01000]
Where I'm indexing the INF_Prod database.
A DBCC LOGINFO shows something along the lines of:
Code Snippet
BACKUP LOG successfully processed 45162 pages in 152.607 seconds (2.424 MB/sec). [SQLSTATE 01000]

2 9043968 388825088 29801 0 64 29800000001528500007
Clearly there is something in the log file towards the end.
However, I don't know why this is happening as I'm running the script in the master database and I've backed up the transaction log of the database I'm working on.
I've tried doing Full backup + Transaction log + Shrink, it fails.
I've tried waiting 10minutes in the script + shrink, it also fails.
However, if I open a query analyzer and do a backup log, then a shrink it works perfectly every time.
However in the script it always fails no matter what I do.
Where am I going wrong here?

Gareth

We have restored into sql 2005 the database backups made in sql 2000. We connect with trusted connection and application roles, and when trying to execute a transaction to another database (with the guest user), we get a permission error.
Does anyone know if, apart from restoring the databases, we should do something else to get the guest user working the same way as with sql 2000 in the restored databases?
