Why Are Other Servers In Backup Tables?
Sep 14, 2007
I ran the following code on one of our servers and I got some surprising results. Those results included backups for that machine but also showed entries for other servers. I don't understand it! I can understand the results being wrong because I coded something incorrectly, but why would another server be listed in bs.server_Name? It appears that the entries are "correct" in that backups were taken on the other server at the time given, but why is it there??? (I put the code together to list the most recent backup for each database on the instance. I hope it is correct.)
select @@ServerName, bs.server_Name, bs.Database_Name,
bmf.physical_Device_Name,
bs.backup_start_date, bs.backup_finish_date,
Case When bs.backup_start_date < Getdate() - 1 Then 'Stale' Else 'Recent' End as Status,
Case When bs.backup_finish_date is NULL Then 'Failed' Else 'Successful' End as Success
from msdb.dbo.backupset bs
Join msdb.dbo.backupmediafamily bmf on bmf.media_set_id = bs.media_set_id
where type = 'd'
and bs.backup_set_id = (select max (bso.backup_set_id)
from msdb.dbo.backupset bso
where bso.server_name = bs.server_Name
and bso.Database_Name = bs.Database_Name
and bso.Type = 'D')
order by database_name

I am trying to install failover support for my sql server 7.0 database on the in clustere server enviorment
Now We have operating system on two clusterd servers but just one common database disk
Now what will happen if i lose server A ( Active ) the server B will take over and use the same database . But what will
happen if database disk crashes IS it possible for me to replicate the data or use disk mirroring , or have one clustered
database server seperate
How does the database server cluster work ?
What kind of replication do i use for my backup support ?
what should be my recovery process ?
how can i use standby option on the database during recovery ?
Please try to reply as soon as possible
if you can also point to some documetation on the net that will also help
Also look at my current structure ( but this should not affect your answer )
Tables
group 1 --- 20 tables ( being replicated to server c )
group 2 ----60 tables
on cluster 1
Server A-- Holds Group 1 ( Transictional replication to server c )
on cluster 2
server B---(Production server ) Group 2 + Group 1

I am wanting to use backup compression on a few sql servers (2008R2 and 2012). I have never touched compression before and always just gone with the default.I use Ola Hallengren's scripts to do the backups which, if not specifically specified, will use the server default.Backups (FULL and LOG) have been happening successfully on these servers for years.SQL won't care that the previous backup in the set was uncompressed or that the hourly transaction log backups previously taken were uncompressed?Restore statements (T-SQL) will be identical?From everything I am reading it is simply a case of setting the configuration and acting like nothing changed but I just wanted to be 100% certain.1 of the servers is a SharePoint backend.All of the backup files from all servers are picked up by Commvault backup system.

Hello out there.
I am currently testing the transmission rates of sql server 70 backups over an ATM circuit (T3) from tampa, fl to detroit. We are evaluating what we need to do to relocate our warm backup database servers to our Disaster Recovery site in detroit. I have tried several types of transmissions and are not receiving any transfer rates that will reasonably work with a recovery plan. I have tried copying a file from source to target, I have tried backing up from source to target, I have tried FTP'ing files, and never can achieve higher transmission rate then 1 gig per hour.
I am looking to talk to anyone out there that may have implemented a long distance sql servber DR site or anyone who is thinking about it. Or anyone who has any input on how I might be able to achieve a higher transmission rate over a T3. Or anyone who is using SAN's in both their local and DR site and might be using special synchronizing software. I am currently piloting a Metastore SAN and a Compaq SAN to solve some local disk management problems and eventually transmit data from SAN to SAN for DR.
Please, if you are involved with any of these strategies and would like someone to share your knowledge with or if I can be of help to you by sharing our testing knowledge, please write asap.
Thanks.

Hi,
I am creating a job that runs this command:
EXEC xp_cmdshell 'copy f:dados_sqlmssqlackup
ecom_tb_basico.bak \stalingrado_2c$ emp',
The result of this job is:
"Access is denied.
0 file(s) copied.
NULL"
But I am running this command with sa user.....
Wich kind of permission is missing to execute this copy?
When I execute the same command to copy the backup from the server to itself, it works fine!!!!
Does someone have an idea to solve this problem?????

Hi,
I have been experiencing a problem with a job I am trying to automate. My team requires two instances of a db on development. Every week, db1 is detached and reattached as db1_copy, and a new copy of db1 from production is copied over. I have used cursors for the dropusers, addlogins, grantdbaccess, addroles, and addrolemembers aspects of the restore process. Also, we use sql authentication and not windows authentication. The issue is that when the agent encounters a minor issue, ie. a login that already exists in that db, or adding a rolemember to a role that is already there, I get an error. I have ensure that at that step, the job simply proceeds because it is a minor step in the process (it happens during the script execution when done manually but I can override this because I am present and just let it run in one step instead of many). Is there any way to do this without adding a multitude of steps?
Thanks,
Maria

We are told that we cannot get remote access on our DB servers , can access them only via SQL management studio. But we are the one's who will be restoring all our DB's from current setup to new servers.
My Question:
1. Can we restore the DB's directly via SQL Management studio(from other server where management studio is installed) without logging into the DB server.
2. How do we set the mdf/ldf file paths, assuming we have elevated access on the DB. Is this possible?.
Any other blockers we can face?

I have 2 tables with the following structure:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[table1] (
[RID] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL ,
[RText] [varchar] (400) NULL ,
[DateModified] [datetime] NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Table2] (
[GrpRID] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL ,
[GrpID] [varchar] (10) NOT NULL ,
[RID] [int] NOT NULL ,
[Status] [bit] NULL ,
[SortOrder] [int] NULL ,
[DateModified] [datetime] NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
I am transfering 2 table between 2 SQL server based on GrpRID from table2.
Since RID is identity in table1 sometimes it is different text for spesific
Rid in second server. Some how I need to get the match the right text from server1
to server2 and if text doesn't exists create a bew entry in table1 with the update to table2
wich should reflect correct RID.

I have user that we just migrated his Access database to SQLServer. All went well with the migration, but then he came up withanother requirement to be able to replicate the database to a localSQL server living on the hard drive of a laptop. Before the migrationhe just copied the entire Access databse to the lap top.I tried using the Copy SQL Server Objects Task to move thenecessary tables from the production server to the laptop, but noticedit doesn't copy over the table Indexes/keys identiy fields etc. Iended up backing up the production database and restoring it to thelaptop database, but wondered if there is any way to move the tables,with their properties from one server to another? I know I can setup the backup process to run as scheduled, but the problem is the dataneeds to be moved on an irregular time table. I thought about justwriting code on the remaining Access front end to empty the localtables and then query the data from the production side to reloadthem, but I'm sure there's an easier way.Any suggestions would be appreciated.Thanks,Tom

Hi people!!!
First I'll introduce my situation.
I have the folowing tables:
1.- Table "Codes", DataBase "COD", server 1001
2.- Table "Codes", DataBase "COD", server 1002
Both servers run SQL Server 2000 Edition.
What i need to perform is a check that compares the data stored in both tables in order to know if there is any difference between them. Of course, the structure of both tables are the same.
I use the SP sp_addlinkedserver to link the servers, but the problem is that EXCEPT and INTERSECT didn't work.
Anyone can help me?
Thanks,
Bob
P.S.: Please!!!!!!!!!

Having a little problem with linking to Access tables. I have an Access database that has in it, some linked tables. After setting up the linked server in SQL server, none of the linked tables in Access show up, only the tables that were created or imported show up.
Is there anything you can do to get the linked tables in Access to show up under the tables list in the SQL linked server?

I've run into the following problem using "select rowguidcol from [LinkedServer].[DBName].dbo.MyTable" (as opposed to using "select <rowguid column name>...".
Against a locally-connected database, the following SQL command works as expected:
SELECT rowguidcol from dbo.MyTable
However, If I run the same query against a linked server (using the 4-part notation), it fails with an 'Invalid column name 'rowguidcol'' error:
SELECT rowguidcol from [LinkedServer].[MyDB].dbo.MyTable
Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Invalid column name 'rowguidcol'.
I've searched around but can't seem to find any info that tells me definitively that I can't use rowguidcol against linked tables, so I'm wondering if I'm just doing something wrong?
Any ideas on how to get around this issue would be greatly appreciated. I really don't want to use actual column names, as this is for generated scripts.
More Info:
> I can select the data just fine from the linked server if I use the column name - so I don't think it's a configuration or permissions issue.
> The row I'm trying to view is, in fact, a rowguidcol. I used the exact same script to create the table on both the local (where select rowguidcol works) and the linked (where it doesn't) servers.
> Both servers are MS SQL 2005 Standard with SP2

FROM sysobjects o, syscolumns c, sysindexes i
WHERE o.id = c.id
AND o.id = i.id
AND (i.indid = 1 or i.indid = 0)
AND o.type = 'U'
And o.name in ('Table1','Table2','Table3')

Hello
I have a production database that i need to refresh to our test environment daily. The database size is 700 MB.
I do not need to transfer the stored procedures and triggers , users and logins.
Would a DTS package that runs every night be the best and the easiest solution to implement or should i look into log shipping and snapshot replication.
thanks
