Scheduling An Automatic Backup
Jun 12, 2007
I have only started using SQL Server 2005 Express Edition recently.I also installed Management Studio Express version to manage the database. While testing the database I had came across some question and they are:
Can I upgrade from SQL Server 2005 Express to Workgroup/Standard/Enterprise without loosing the database and its contents.
While I backed up the database, I was permitted to backup only on to my local drive even though I have administrative rights on the system. It would be easy if I could backup to a network drive directly.My question is:Is it possible to backup directly to a network drive rather than backing the database to a local drive and then "copy and paste" it to a network drive.
Windows Scheduler: I have scheduled a daily backup of the database by midnight. I have also written the script to run the backup. But every time the scheduler starts the backup, it asks for the database password. This halts the backup until I come back in the morning and manually enter the password. My question is: is it possible to run an automatic database backup using Windows Scheduler?
I understand that there are 2 types of backups: full and differential backups. My question is: Is it possible to dynamically allocate different names automatically to consecutive backups so that the previous backups are not over written
Thanks for your patience and time.
regards,
Berly Sam

Hi,
We are working on creating an automatic backup tool for our web application. Our goal is to run a script that "zips" the virtual host/application directory. We have the script to zip the application directory, but is there a way to run a SQL Backup and then zip the output easily? This is where we are struggling.
Any Suggestions are appreciated

Hi,I want to schedule a backup of three databases on a daily basis.I've written the code to run the 3 backups in TSQL and was wondering howbest to automate this procedure?Should I put the code in an sproc and then schedule running that commandin the DTS or should I just add the TSQL into a DTS command?? Or isthere a better way of doing this???I then prefer to use DTSRUNUI to generate the syntax and then schedulethis from the windows scheduler as opposed to the SQL SCheduler in EM(is this the best way???)Help would be appreciatedM3ckon*** Sent via Devdex http://www.devdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!

I feel stupid and I probably am. I try to configure a schedule using MS Wizard.
I open SQL Server backup wizard, add New Destination as a file, e.g. d:msql7ackuporthwind_bk,
schedule work to start daily at current time + 2 minutes, click all OK's and exit.
2 min pass, nothing happens.
What am I missing?
Thanks,
Boris

While checking the SQL server error logs, I notice that the pubs and msdb database are automatically being backed up, even though no job is set up to do so....in addition, its backing up to a directory that I cannot find on our network.....does anybody have an idea of whats going on ?
the path its backingup to is:
(FILE=1, TYPE=PIPE: {'.pipedbasql70dbagent0s0'}).
Thank you in advance

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
Jane

I am getting an automatic rollback in a transaction that fails to insert a row, via a trigger, due to a duplicate key. The transaction is automatically rolled back and unless the error correctly handled a 'partial update' occurs. Why in the example below is the transaction automatically rolled back (statements 1 to 3) and is there any way of knowing what errors generate an auto rollback. For example if the duplicate key error occurs on the insert into table B below, and not the triggered update, then no auto rollback occurs.
Begin Tran -- 1
insert into A values ('A1') -- 2 updates OK
insert into B values ('B1') -- 3 updates OK
-- triggers insert into B_Hist -- 4 Fails with Duplicate Key error
insert into C values ('C1') -- 5 updates OK
Commit Tran -- 6 3902 error No corresponding Begin
Thanks.

I don't know very much about Sql Server and need help.
I have two primary keys called AirlineCode e ID in the same table.
This id is an automatic number. So I don't need to input this value, since
it's created automatic. What I need is this ID be created automatic but
for each new AirlineCode the ID starts as 1 again. For example :
If I put AirlineCode = 220 then ID starts as 1. In another row AirlineCode is
also 220, then ID is 2. But in another row AirlineCode = 500, then this
automatic number come back to 1.
then the rows can be like this :
AirlineCode ID
220 1
220 2
500 1
220 3
300 1
500 2
I think I have to create a script to make this, but I don't kwon how...
Ask someone to help-me
Best Regards
Marcelo

I have two sql 2000 server tables one is active and one is terminated (I inherited this db) and I was thinking of having the active table automatically update the terminated table when an employee is terminated. Access is at the front end and in the form of the active table theres a drop down text box that has the employement status(active, terminated, on leave...etc) so when the status turns into terminated i want the acitve table to send those records to the terminated table, ( the data in both tables are not exactly the same). looking into a trigger or stored procedure. This is the first time I've done this so I'm doing some reasearch on how to handle it. Any suggestions

well as I get further into this project of automatic updates I'm fining more and more barriers. The combo list box which indicates whether the employee is terminated or active might be a problem with sql since you cant create a Row source and a Row source type in a sql table. that combo box exsist in the properties of the form. The Row Source Type is a Value List. Shoot :(

I'm a SQL Server 7/2000 DBA and manages about 40 servers in different networks. Every morning I check through the Enterprise Manager if all Jobs (backup, maintenance, etc.) have run successfully. This check costs me 1 hour per day.
Because of a reorganization I've got some new college's and lost some college's. My new college's think this is to much work, so it should be automated. They only want the failed jobs to report an error on a website or something like that, and don't want to check 40 servers. I don't agree in this, because I'm affraid I'm going to miss some errors.
How do you do your checks every morning?
Thanks,
Marco

Hi there,
I am testing the db mirroring, making sure it will auto failover. I've stopped the SQL services on my principal and then I looked at the mirror db is says it's restoring. It stayed like that for 10 min before I enabled the mirroring again. Anyone knows why it's not failing over??????
Here's my setup: SQL 2005 Standard, Server 1 Principal, Server 2 Mirror & Witness.

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tblProve](
[ID][varchar](50)NOT NULL,
[tempCountrys][varchar](100) NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_tblProve] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
([ID] ASC) WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
I have a table "dbo.tblProve" that have a Primery Key ID of type
varchar(10) and this primary key have a Default value or Binding like this:
([dbo].[fnc_ProveNewID]())
This function "dbo.fnc_ProveNewID()" finds the max(ID) in the same table and creates the next ID.
When I insert a record into the table dbo.tblProve the function creates the new ID automatically (this is the format of the ID '0000000001' or '000000010' etc. ). But when I insert a lot of records from a Select Query it displays this message below:
Msg 2627, Level 14, State 1, Line 2
Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK_tblProve'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'dbo.tblProve'.
The statement has been terminated.
Is there any way to create a new ID into a table automatically without to be inserted by the user or client?.
