Merging Data From Multiple Databases With Multiple Tables (all With The Same Structure)
Nov 15, 2006Hi!
I have 7 source databases and one target database, all using the same structure. The structure is made of 10 tables, with foreign key constraints.
I need to merge the source databases into the target (which won't have any data before that process, but will already have the correct schema), and to keep the relationships between the records.
I know how to iterate over the source databases (with SMO foreach), but I'd like to know if someone can advise the best copy method for that context in SSIS ? (I don't want to keep the primary keys, but I need to keep the relationships...)
Any pointer most welcome!
best regards and thanks

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

Aug 30, 2005Has anyone implemented split data for an application between two databases because the data size is extremely large? If so could you please point me to relevant information.In this split data scenario, a table will automatically carry over to another database whenever the size limit for the current database is reached. The challenge is here for the DAL (data access layer) to automatically look into the appropriate database when the next row of data is in another database. OR Perhaps there is another solution to this terasize data problem..Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Creating A Database From Multiple Databases Accross Multiple Servers
Sep 13, 2007Hi,
I'm trying to create a database that takes specific information from a number of databases on different servers to make some reporting that we have much easier.
I'm pretty new to SQL so I'm not sure of the best way to proceed. I read an article that suggested I use the OPENROWSET command. The problem is, the version of SQL that came with one of the programmes we use is limited and will not allow you to turn on the allow "Ad Hoc distributed Queries" so the SLQ statement will not execute.
I'm confused why it won't let me to connect through ODBC as I've created a web page that selects data from this database with no problems!
Here is the SQL statement that I've written to make sure it is the correct one (on the msdn library page it said that this was the ODBC connection):
SELECT a.*
FROM OPENROWSET('MSDASQL','DRIVER=(SQL Server);SERVER=APPOLOACT7;UID=sa;PWD=***************',
'SELECT * FROM MDCTestAndDev.dbo.TBL_CONTACT') AS a
I've also created the ODBC connection using the tool on Administration Tools>Data Sources ODBC
Any help would be greatly appreciated (also any ways of selecting from one database and inserting it into another will be helpfull)
Thanks
SQL Tools :: How To Restore Multiple Databases From Multiple BAK Files At Once
Aug 14, 2012I am trying to restore multiple .bak backup SQL database files onto a new server. However, I have found that it will not allow me to restore multiple databases at once. Is there a way to do this so that I do not have to manually upload one at a time? I tried adding all the .bak files at once to the backup device window but it only did the first one listed. It would be so much easier to restore them all at once so that I do not have to continue this manual process. I am restoring them via device.

Feb 29, 2008Hello,I'm looking into offering a custom data driven web app that I wrote for an organization that I'm apart of to other similar organizations. I would be hosting the data and web application code on my dedicated server. This application is using the membership api supplied in .NET 2.0 and also has my own custom data tables within it.My question is what would be the best way to add clients to this? Should I simply create a new database for each new client like so: ACME_Database, ABC_Database, AAA_Database etc. Or should I add some sort of client "Tag" (tag meaning column within each datatable) to these databases and then update my SQL queries to process them accordingly. I imagine I could do both but I guess I need some advice from people that already had experiance with providing this kind of service. Thanks!Jason

I am in the progress of designing a new section of my database and was thinking of creating a hole new database instead of just creating tables inside the database. My question is can you JOIN multiple tables in an SQL Statement from multiple databases.

Can I link say tblRegister from Convention to tblUser in Services?

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

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.

Querying Multiple Databases
Feb 7, 2007Hey there!
I'm not sure how to explain this but here goes...
I'm a bit stuck, a new project that's come about "requires" me to query multiple databases as if they were tables.
1 Oracle database which stores information on our staff (this database is a part of some MIS software and can't be changed in any way)
1 SQL Server 2005 database which stores information on staff sickness
Basically say theres 1 table in each database
Oracle DB
People
Person_Code
Forename
Surname
SQL DB
Sickness
Person_Code
Daydate
Lets say the query I want to perform is to select all the records from sickness where person code is 22334 and also get their name from the other db, so the output may look like
22334 Dann Rees 01/01/2007
22334 Dann Rees 03/01/2007
22334 Dann Rees 10/02/2007
Now I realise I can write a quick function to pull the information but this is just a basic example. Effectivley what I "need" is to be able to query sickness while sub querying people to get the names, or some kind of pass through query?
Please remember this is just a very simple example and the "actual" queries will be far more complicated, for instance finding all the employees of a certain department who is male and was sick in January. All the data for that example is stored in people (oracle) except for the dates which is stores in sick (SQL 2005). Now these are easy enough if they were tables in 1 database....but their not, their tables in 2 databases, and theres nothing I can do to change that :(
All help appreciated as this is becoming very urgent.
Many thanks
Dann

I have many indexes so I do not want to have to recreated them if I can avoid it. Any suggestions?

Multiple Databases Synchronizing
Apr 5, 2004Hi,
Currently developping a c# database based application, which will be used in different establishments worldwide. I'm currently a bit confused by the ms sql features offered. Because the huge data amount which will be fetched during application use from the database, the best option is probably to put a ms sql server in each establishment to realise quick data fething. Problem is that the servers, which are all running on the same database design have to be synchronised real-time. I read about datareplication with the merge option which I thought was a nice solution. The subscribers can only have read-only rights on these subscriber databases, because the merging doesn't work appropriate i heard, so this is no good solution. Then I read about distributing transaction coordination. Seems a good solution as well, but what happens if a server system crashes for one day and then comes back online? It won't be up to date anymore... Right now I think about a combination of these 2 features. DTC in combination with merge replication, but there must be a better solution. Fact is that a lot of users will be editing data worldwide non stop, and everyone has to be up to date. Because of huge data fetching I don't think it's a good solution to let everyone work worldwide with one single database. Is there a possibility to realise this with ms sql server? Because I'm getting more and more confused... Thx in advance.
Best Tool For Changes To Multiple Databases?
Feb 5, 2002I need some guidance! We are running SQL Server 2000. We have 4 or 5 databases with the same schema, and I need to make sure that their structures all stay synched. We will have more soon. I also need certain tables to have the same data across all the databases.
I need a way to manage changes on the multiple databases! Right now I generate a script in Enterprise Manager, then run it in Query Analyzer on each database, manually. There's too much room for error here.
Any suggestions are appreciated! I am currently evaluating Embarcadero's products, but they are complicated and confusing - I'm not sure yet which of their tools is meant for this purpose.
Thanks,

Duplicates Multiple Databases
Nov 9, 2007Ok, so right now we have a bunch of queries similar to the following:
Code:
use db001 select co#=(001), fieldvalue from tablename where fieldid = '1'
use db002 select co#=(002), fieldvalue from tablename where fieldid = '1'
what i need to find is if there are duplicates of fieldvalue and have it display all in one.
Basically right now we run all these there are 25 databases and we export everything to a file and then open it in excel. we then format it it so its just co# and fieldvalue and then look for duplicates.
i would like to avoid the whole excel part and just run a query that will display any duplicates of fieldvalue across all 25 databases in "tablename"
hope that makes sense. - Thanks
Copy Multiple Databases
Aug 14, 2007Could anyone possibly help me out with an issue I am having...
I need to copy all my SQL2005 databases from Server1 to Server2. How can I, using SSIS, copy all the databases and not just 1 specific one (database transfer task)???
My actual task is much deeper than this, but this is the main problem I seem to be encountering and I cannot find this anywhere on the web...
Over and above the what I have mentioned, is there a way to also specify a name of the target DB the copy will go through to?
e.g. Server 1 has 3 instances, each one with a different copy of the same DB.
I would like to copy all 3 copies to Server 2 running 1 SQL instance, but to target DB's like DB_dev, DB_prod and DB_test.
The latter section is not so crucial at the moment, but the first part is really an issues I am struggling with at the moment...
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanking You in advance!!!!!
Best Way To Organize Multiple Databases?
Jan 21, 2008I'm very new to SQL, so you'll have to excuse the nubishness of this question. I've got my trusty O'Reilly book here!
We're using Microsoft SQL Server 2005 on our web server. I'm currently working on a project to get a few MS Access Databases available on the web page.
The web part is actually working fine, with the DBs exported into SQL for performance reasons. (From what I've read pulling data from the .mdb file could cause me problems in the future, so I'm tossing it all onto the SQL server from the start.)
Before I get into the project full-tilt, though, I'm curious about how best to organize all the data?
I'm using the Upsizing Wizard in Access for the conversions, and every new DB gets added under Databases. If this gets approved I may be looking at well over a hundred DBs which will eventually be converted and made web accessible.
I can keep everything neat and tidy on the web server by just tossing things in a few directories, but the menu on the SQL Server Management Studio is going to become a mess really quickly if I let it just keep adding to +Databases.
Is there a way to sort everything into a series of folder/groups, like how System Databases has it?
Thanks in advance,

One Database Vs. Multiple Databases
Jun 20, 2006I need to design a system which represents multiple "projects" in SQLServer. Each project has the same data model, but is independent of allothers. My inclination is to use one database to store all projects.Looking at the numbers involved, however, I wonder if I would getbetter performance by storing each project in its own database.Suppose I have 50 projects, each with two users and 10,000 rows; itseems to me I'd rather have 50 x 2 users working in a table with 10,000rows than 1 x 100 users working in a table with 500,000 rows.On the other hand, the single database approach seems more elegant froma design perspective. I wouldn't be creating multiple copies of anidentical data model, and I wouldn't be creating new databases as abusiness procedure, every time a new project is required.Here are my questions:1. For the scenario described above, am I correct to assume I will getbetter performance by using multiple databases, or does SQL Server havesome clever way of achieving the same performance in a single database?2. Is the multiple database approach common? If anyone has tried it,please tell me about how it works in practice.-TC

This is probably a simple solution but I'm a bit confused about which flows to use.
I have two databases on different servers that contain the same information but for the appropriate server. I want to retrieve data from each of the servers using a "select" statement.
