I need to keep the data in my development server and production server in sync.....What is the best way to do this?Remember for example development data may have some addition columns in a table which may not exist in production.....Pls let me know how can i achieve this.
I cannot apply backups because i will loose the ongoing development ....
I have two databases data1(Express 2005) and data2( Enterprise 2005). Data1 is a subset of Data2. Now beginning from that state any changes to either database should be reflected on both of them. Now what's my best solution to accomplish this considering one is the subset of other??
Hi,We are going to be running two SQL Server 2000's from the samephysical server, with Windows Server 2003, and I need to have certaintables between them syncronized. Database A is a backend to a website anddatabase B is going to be used by a different department. Both thedatabases have certain data in common but it isn't stored in the sameformat. I can't just auto sync one with the other, the data (records) hasto be manipulated before updates between them can take place.So, what I need to do is convert certain data when A is updated and tranferthat to B and vice-versa, in real-time. I've looked at Snapshot, thatisn't an option. I imagine some kind of Event Driven API is needed, wheredo i being?TIA
Ok..here is my problem. I have two SQL servers that I need to haveidentical, at least semi-real time data on. One is in a public DMZwith full access to and from the internet, and one is behind acorporate firewall and the box can get out to the internet but cannotbe hit directly from the internet in. The two are on seperatenetworks and cannot be connected via lan. Is there a way for me tohave semi-real time data transfers between the two to keep bothservers identical? I have thought that the server behind the firewallcould initiate an XML session with my dmz sql server and processupdates, but I am unfamiliar with how it would know what has changedon the remote server and how the remote server would know what haschanged on the server behind the corporate firewall. Any good ideas?ThanksDan Hirsch
I'm working on an application that will be running on two or more machines. Each machine is logging data to a local SQL Compact database. I would like to make these two computers sync the data with eachother, but I am unsure what the best method is to transfer data between machines in a table format. I think XML would work well, but there may be something easier, so I thought I'd ask. Do I want to use sockets to do this, or is there another type of connection that would work better?
All PCs will know the IP addresses of their peers. I forsee each PC having a server thread that is listening all the time. Each PC also has a client that checks to see if it can connect to the server on the other side. It then requests certain data, which the server part sends. Does this sound right?
The rest of the app is in Visual Basic 2008 Express.
I have 3 SQL databases: A, B and C. A and B are branch databases while C is the central (HQ) database. A & B will be constantly updated while C will updated occasionally and usually will be used for reporting/data browsing. Even though A & B are from different branch, they do have share some data records.
Every day, I will have to sync A & B's new/updated data to C and C to A/B. I know I can use Replication but I can't. You see, A & B are located in our own branch server while C was hosted on a third-party server. The webserver provider for C would not allow me to do any Replication on C.
What other alternatives that I can use to synchronise all 3?
DTS? XML transfer? It looks as if I have no choice but to write my own sync scripts? :((
Anyone has encountered similar situations? Any recommended SQL Tool programs?
Please help. I'm at a loss of what Im going to do.
thanks 4 ur rpl..well i have a simple doubt if u can guide me it will b gr8 help..well i am developing an application of location based services, in which i am going to store my data on SQLserver 2005 and will fetch the data from it when the user logs in to the user's PDA device so that a user can work offline on the data when there is no connection and when he gets the connection he can synchronize the data with SQLserver 2005. so now i m confuse whether i should use the merge replication or ado.net synchronization framework or RDA?what is the difference between merge replication and synchronization and which is better?

hello everyone, i am developing a application using C#and .NEt compact framework. for that i need to sync pda data (in xml format) with the remote database server(SQL) and vice versa. please help me out thanks in advance.
I've stepped into a new environment and have never dealt with multiple data files on user databases only with Temp db.What would be the best way to get all my data files in sync. I have done this on databases that aren't that big in size or off in size by a lot. Here is what I have
I have SQL Server 2000 and 2005 running on the same server. My current system is in SQL Server 2000 and the new system is in SQL Server 2005. My users will be using SQL Server 2000 for the most part, But for the part the processes that have been migrated to 2005, they will be using SQL Server 2005 as well. The database schema is different on both servers eventhough the data will be similar in most respects.
Is there is a way through which any data that is inserted/updated in SQL Server 2000 via content Management System/ manually/ via a batch job, the data is automatically populated in SQL Server 2005 tables or vice versa?
I need some assistence here.I have two servers. One with MS SQL 2000 Standard edition and MSDE(MSdesktop engine).I need to sync my databases nightly, as a backup.Is there a cheap software that will do this? I don't want to justbackup the entire databases files b/c they are large and I'mtransfering them over DSL.I was thinking transaction logging, but I'm not sure. Is there a easyway to do this?I don't know how to accomplish this task.PLEASE HELP.
I have the merge replication (Push)Â for SQL Server 2008.The right-click option for Start and Stop Synchronizing in subscriptions has been disabled. How can I stop the merge replication and start again ?
This error happened 1 week after I created the merge replication. The merge data cannot sync to subscriber and only solution I can use is drop and re-create the merge replication again but error would be re-occur a week later. The merge replication work fine before and start from middle on May 2015, but it keep happen right now.

I have set up a merge replication with 4 subscribers and a publisher on SS05 sp2 on 5 window servers. After running my application on the replication with big data for a while, the data in some of tables of subscriber are out of sync from the publisher. I tried to run sp_resyncmergesubscription to fix the problem according to http://doc.ddart.net/mssql/sql2000/html/replsql/replmon_9pwh.htm. The procedure run successfully. However, the problem is still exist.

Hi Forum, Ive been unsuccessfully trying to copy data from one table to another, very simple scenerio! Table1 ID(PK), FirstName, Mobile, Date. Table2 FirstName, Mobile. The first question I have is should I fill Table2 at the insert stage OR should/do I update Table2 from Table1 as the users details are entered. ie create some kind of relationship. Really appreciate good advice! cheers P
I have two db instances on different SQL Servers. One is my test db and the other the prod. db. Each has two tables that hold lookUp values for the entire application. I would like to keep these tables in sync. in both dbs. The prod. db would be the master. I was trying to design a trigger to insert, update, or delete the appropriate records in the test db as they were added or deleted from the prod db. I'm getting too many prefixes errors on the script when trying to reference the table on the test db using four part naming convention. Any ideas on how to resolve this issue? Do I need to set up a linked server to accomplish this functionality? If so, how do I setup security for a linked server? Thanks in advance. Oscar
I have a SQL 7 backup file that I restored onto a new server. All the objects within the database are not owned by dbo, instead they are owned by a db user. When I tried to login to the db it said that it wasn't a valid user. So I added the login to the system. Now when I login it says it is not a valid db user. I have attempted to sync the id's but don't know how. In 6.5 I could run an ad-hoc query to match the SUID's for the system and the database. In 7.0 I can not because the suid for the db is computed. Any ideas on how to sync the user ID's so that I can login to the server using the target db as my default and can query the table with prefacing the owner(I can get in if I give my login SA privelages but then I have to preface all the objects with the owners name)?
Thanks in advance for any help that you can offer.
we currently have a web server/db on-site and a similar backup machine across the country. we're using a pretty bad backup strategy. we zip up a backup file, thats done on the main server every night, then ftp over to the back up server then run a restore.
lately ive been having problems with the main server. i would like to have the machines sync'd up as close as possible.
ive searched the threads and noticed replication and log shipping to be the most practical, but im assuming most of the machines are on the same domain.
what would be my best bet for machines connected over the internet, no vpn?
also the db on the main machine get queried/inserts all day from 7am - 6:30pm
I need to syncronize two separate databases. One is SQL Server the other is MySql. I don't have a lot of experience with MSSQL and need a little advice on how best (in terms of speed especially) to gather records that have been added since the last sync and any that have been modified. The table in question has datetime fields for both, the time each record was created (CreatedTime) and the time that the record was last modified (ModifiedTime). Sync will happen daily.
I have worked out a few ways I might do this with DATEADD or DATEDIFF, but my question is, what is the most effecient way? Currently I'm just looking for a way to get inserted and updated records from SQL Server to MySQL. I may have to do a two way sync of some sort later.
I need to make a sync between 3 or more SQL Servers. We have 3 Small Business server with sql server 2000. In all the 3 locations, branch and headquarters we've the same databate data. For sync with 2 there's no problem. I need to make it with three and then at the end of the year with four. Can anyone help me?
I have three tables and i want to bring all tables into sync. My problem is that the difference in the amount of records is huge.
CORE -- 85659 This table doesnt have a PK CRF -- 59895 This table has a composite key (MIN,MAX) DS -- 58595 This table also has a the same composite key (MIN,MAX)
All the tables have their own UIDs. Additionally CRF has a column which stores the UID of CORE table and DS has a column which stores UID of the CRF table.
Hello,I've got 2 databases (both on MS-SQL Sever2k). One of them (remote)contains table which is often updated. For various reasons I'd like tomaintain a copy on local MSSQLServer. Is there any built-in mechanism whichallows to do such things?! I can do this manually, by examining the remotetable contents, and downloading new stuff (local table cannot be modified inany other way), but I guess that there is a smarter way. Any ideas?!ThanksPiotrek
I have tried to set up log shipping for one of our databases - firsttime. Using EM I was able to create the job and maintenance plansucessfully. I wasn't able to find any errors in any logs. In themonitor server, when I look at job history, everything is gettingcopied and loaded sucessfully, yet the STATUS in the log shippingmonitor states it is out of sync.How do I get this into sync? I have set the out of sync threshold to45 minutes. I have made changes in our production database and thosechanges are showing up in the standby database, so it all appears tobe working.Thanks.
I have set up a database with log shipping to the backup server. I have actually set it up multiple times because it continues to get out of sync, and I do not know another way to get it back in sync (despite much effort to learn how). I have not found much documentation in BOL, nor in the on-line areas that I can find. I have not been able to discover why it keeps getting out of sync.
If there is anyone who may shed some light on this, I would be very greatful.
Particulars (both servers):
Windows ADV Server 2003 SQL 2000 (Enterprise Ed.) Servers on a work group (not domain)
There is a separate database on the same servers that continues to have successful log shipping.
