We need a drive cloning app, like Ghost, that will allow us to transfer a production image off of a HDD to other PCs. The problem with this is that
our production needs SQL in order to run and transferring the initial image to uniquely named workstations causes DB registration problems. Is there
an app that will allow us to configure this transferred image so that SQL will refer to the "new" drive instead in of the "old"?
Tengo una aplicacion desarrollada en POWERBUILDER y accede a una base de Datos SQL, deseo utilizar la misma aplicacion para acceder a otra base de Datos SQL en el mismo servidor. La segunda Base de Datos tiene que ser inicialmente un clon del original para hacer pruebas con los mismos usuarios. A nivel de la aplicacion puedo solucionar cambiando los parametros de nombre de base de datos, pero como puedo hacer a nivel del servidor?.

In my .NET code, with SQL Server 2000 as the backend, I need to create anexact copy, without data, of an existing table in the same database, thatthe user selects from a combo box. Any ideas on how to do this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedUsing SQL Server 2005 Express.I need to periodically duplicate an entire database and rename it. Mosttables are empty but some are to be prepopulated. I was thinking of havinga "template" database called perhaps "EmptyDatabase", and then copy thatinto a freshly created database with a new name.Has anyone coded anything like this?Thanks.GS
View 3 Replies View RelatedI loved the DTS feature that allowed saving DTS package as a VB model. With a bit of coding you could generate a number of packages from one template.
Are there any analogous solutions for SSIS? I cannot find anything.
My goal is simple. I have an ETL step that transfers data from staging dimension table to the corresponding star schema table in the subject matter database. I have two types of packages for SCD type 1 and type 2. Do you have any suggestions on how I can clone packages so that I don€™t have to go manually through each of them to replace certain items such as stored procedure names, etc.
Thank you!
Guys!!
How are you all? Im new to this forum as you can probably tell. I have joined up because i need advice in a matter and this seems like the best pace on the net for SQL Server help. Let me outline first what im trying to do;
Im part of a large company of roughly 5000 or so desktops and 3000 or so laptops. We currently have a project under way where we inted to build 50 or so identical laptops that will be used for testing mechanical equipment. Now the team involved have designed there own program that will connect to a main server in Head Office and transfer over the updated SQL server databases on the latop. every couple of days after doing tests, this tests - stored in a SQL DB - will be synced with the server to prevent loss of data.
Now my queston, is it possible to Clone an operating system with the following apps already installed;
SQL Server 2005
SQL Server Nature Client
SQL Server Setup Files
SQL Server Vss Writer
I made an inital clone, but when i went into the user groups, i found SQL server users with a PC name of the inital 'base build' PC. It seems these accounts cannot be copied from one machine to another.
Will the SQL database still run fine, or will there be big problems when copnnecting the the Server in Head Office?
Would it be better to just install the SQL Server components after a new latop has been created?
Anyway any help at all would be great on this matter, cheers!!
I have a DTS package on SQL Server 2000 that loads a table from a text file daily. The text file has 148 distinct fields that are mapped to a corresponding 148 columns on the table. I need to recreate the package to SQL Server 2005. Is there any shortcut to replicating the mapping from DTS to SSIS or do I need to redo from the beginning?
