Do We Get SQL2000 Media With A SQL2005 Purchase?

Mar 13, 2007



My company is planning to purchase a SQL2005 standard Processor license (unlimited users - about $5000)

Does anyone know if we can obtain SQL2000 media along with the purchase. Because of the app we are running and its stage of development, we have to install and run SQL2000 for about 6 months before we can run Sql2005. We dont want to purchase SQL2000 for such a short term use.

I asked a DELL rep to help me with this over a month ago and he still has no answers for me.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

SQL2005--how To Prohibit Database Restore...

Sep 24, 2007

We currently built a new SQL2005 server and have serveral sentitive Payroll database hosted in it. I managed to seperate some roles to various users to prohibit them to direct access the data but can access it via front-end application.

The problem is I setup a backup operator with the following rights

Server Roles -- Public

User Mapping

User Mapped to this login / Database membership for

PayrollDataBase_1 BackupOperatorName

db_backupoperator / db_denydatareader / db_denydatawriter / public



However, I try to login using the 'BackupOperatorName' in my workstation and Backup the PayllrollDataBase_1 to a server shared path says E:SqlDataBacupPayrollDataBase_1.BAK. Afterward, I copy it over the network back to my workstation and RESTORE in back to my local SQL2005 instant using the local SQL2005 SA user. All data CAN BE browse



Anyone please help to post how to restrict the Backup operator can only Backup the database but cannot restore to its local SQL2005 instant

Many Thanks in advance

Can&#39;t Restore DB From DAT Tape

Oct 30, 1998

Just for background info: I am trying to take a backup of a DB made from a Server(#1) located on a client site and restore to a server that is in house Server(#2). Both servers are running SQL Server 6.5 and all configuration settings are the same except Server(#1) has (DB Lib Ver 6.50.213) and Server(#2) has (DB Lib Ver 6.50.201).

When I try to restore the DAT tape (backup made from Server #1) onto Server #2 I get these errors in this order:
1st --[DB-Library] Unexpected EOF from SQL Server. Connection broken.--
2nd --Error 605 [SQL Server] Attempt to fetch logical page 72915 in database 'DBname' belongs to object '0', not to object 'sysobjects'.--

Does anybody have any ideas and what could be causing these errors?
Would the different DB-Library versions cause these errors?

I know the tape isn't corrupt because the tape can be used to restore on Server(#1).

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

SQL Server 2005 Trying To Restore Get Error Media Family Incorrectly Formed

Jul 30, 2007

I am trying to restore a 2005 backup to a 2005 database on another server. This has worked for me before. I have tried to take the backup 5 times now and each time I get the error media family incorrectly formed. Since I have successfully backed up and restored before between these same two databases I do not understand what is wrong now.

I found other questions with this error; however, they were taking a 2000 backup to a 2005 database. I am using a backup of a 2005 database to a 2005 restore.

How should I begin to debug this problem?

Thanks

Backup And Restore Using Tape - Strange Result

Feb 24, 2000

Hi
I have two database called test1 and test2 both are of same size(both device and log). I run the following statements to take the backup of both the databases using the tape device 'tapedevice1'. dump database test1 to 'tapedevice1'
dump database test2 to 'tapedevice1'
After this I run the load statement
load database test2 from 'tapedevice1'.
It just restore the database test2 with test1 data which is added first to the tape with a warning.
Is there any restriction that in a single tape backup of more than one database is not possible.
Your valuable suggestion appreciated

Unable To Restore Databases From Tape: Timeout Exp

Jul 6, 2007

I'm trying to test my backups by restoring from production onto a DEV machine.

However, when I insert the backup tape into the drive, then go into SSMS and right click on
Databases -> Restore Database -> From Device .... -> Tape -> Add -> (my tape drive \.Tape0) -> Contents
it displays the contents as it should.

So I click "Close" to close the contents and bring me back to the Specify Backup where I have \.Tape0 selected and I then click "OK"
SSMS sits for a few seconds, and then I get a time out error message:

Is It OK To Copy Database Backups To Tape Using Compression?

Dec 27, 2006

Hi, I back up SQL Server 2000 and SQL server 2005 databases to hard disk using the SQL Server Backup Wizard and maintenance plans. Then, I copy the resulting backups to tape using third party tape backup software and compression by the backup software and hardware. I do not use the SQL Server Agent available for the third party backup software. Is this acceptable, or does the compression performed by the third party backup system introduce opportunities for database corruption or other negative effects?

How To Terminate The Client Connections Manually?

Jun 20, 2007

Hi guys,



You know when restoring a database in SQL Server, exclusive access is required. With sp_who I can see the clients. But I don't know how to terminate the client connections easily. Usually I have to stop the server and restart it. I DO think it's too troublesome. Do you have any ideas? Is there any sp or command, or tool that may help? How do you deal with this issue?

Backing Up The SQL Server 2000 Database Using Tape Drives

Jun 9, 2006

Dear sir/madam,

I am from NTU, Singapore and we have a windows 2003 server edition installed on a DELL server and it also runs MS SQL server 2000 for a project of ours. We have installed a HP tape drive on the dell server and it works fine if ntbackup is used at the command prompt but then the SQL enterprise manager does not recognize the tape drive and backing up of our database is of high priority as it contains sensitive information. But the tape drive is installed properly as the device manager does not show any error and ntbackup also recognizes it. I cant seem to figure out why SQL server 2000 cannot recognize it. It would be very helpful if you could kindly guide me on this issue.

Thanking you

Regards

BACKUP LOG Cannot Be Performed Because There Is No Current Database Backup. BACKUP LOG Is Terminating Abnormally.

Jan 31, 2008



Hi there

I'm getting this message on my third automated backup of the transaction logs of the day. Both databases are in full recovery mode, both successfully backed up at 01.00. The transaction logs backed up perfectly happily at 01:30 and 05:30, but failed at 09:30.

The only difference between 05:30 and 09:30's backups is that the log files were shrunk at 08:15 (the databases in question are the ones that sit under ILM2007, and keeping the log files small keeps the system running better).


Is it possible that shrinking the log files causes the database to think that there hasn't been a full database backup?

Thanks

SQL2005 Cannot Backup A Restored SQL2000 Database With Unknow Database Full-text Catalog Database

Nov 15, 2007



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

Restoration Terminating Abnormally

Dec 5, 2000

Hi,

This is the problem which we face now and then. There is an automated job that run everyday night to restore the Database for reporting purposes. Before running that job an NT Task Schedular stop starts the sql server. This is to make sure that all the connections are closed. Nobody uses it at Night. But some times the job fails with bellow error message...

"Database in use. The system administrator must have exclusive use of the database to run the restore operation. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 3101) Backup or restore operation terminating abnormally. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 3013) Associated statement is not prepared [SQLSTATE HY007] (Error 0). The step failed."

Should I make the DB option set to single user mode. I don't think that is the problem.. because it runs fine most of the time..but sometime it fails.
Please help.. Thanks in advance :-)

Shyam.
