Copy Databases From 7 To 2000
Jun 17, 2002
Hi,
I am preparing to move from sql7 to sql2000 and and considering the copy database wizard to move the databases. The thing that I am concerned with is this passage from BOL
"A database with the identical name on both source and destination servers cannot be moved or copied"
This to me says that the database name cannot be the same on source and destination servers. Yet, you would want the database name to be the same from an application point of view (developers get real nasty when you change database information on them).
Does this mean I cannot use the copy database wizard? Must I use sp_attatch_db?
Thanks in advance

I am attempting to use the copy wizard to copy databases from SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2008 R2 w/ FP1.
The copy fails with a login failure to SQL Server 2005. I have a user id & password under Windows for both servers. I have a user id and password under SQL security with the called for admin security rights.
The 2005 server has two instances, 20 databases, two dozen maintenance plans, and over a hundred users. I really would like to use the utility so I don't have to recreate everything manually.

Hi,
Maybe a stupid question, but I'm trying to copy some databases from one
server to another. The copy databases wizard says the job is successful
and I can see that the job has been done on the remote server. But the
copied databases are not there. What do I do?

I am trying to copy information from one Database to another. Each of the databases reside on a different server.
My question is
1. How can I use the DSN name in a stored procedure?
2. Do I need to use dynamic SQL?
3. Any other ideas of how to implement this?
Thanks

Could 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!!!!!

Hello and thanks in advance for help,
I have configured several jobs in the SQL Server Agent which do a copy of databases from a cluster of SQL 2005 to another SQL 2005 server. I did these from the "Copy Dabatase Wizard". When I run these it works fine with "small" databases but with the two bigger ones I get the following error after 10 minutes since execution started:

I am trying to find the best way to copy specific tables from one databaseto another when the source and target database names are not always thesame. Can you use variables to specify (or prompt the user) to providesource and target databases? The target database will exist with the thesame tables as the source. The tables to copy will always be the same.Example:UserA wants to copy 10 tables from Data1 to Data2UserB wants to copy 10 tables from Data4 to Data5I'm sure a script can do this in Query Analyzer but is there a more userfriendly method when the user has ony standard SQL tools?Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I have a database on sqlserver 2000 which contains some tables which receive Create/Read/Update statements from applications, and +-5 tables which contain a sort of read-only data: the applications are only reading from these tables.
Sometimes these 5 tables need to be updated with new data. Currently I am doing this as follows:
Execute a long-running operation (e.g. 1 week), which will add new data, against a Test-database (which is a restore from a backup of the original database)
Some people do some checks to see if the new data in the Test-database is correct
If (2) is OK, the only thing which needs to be done is copying the data of the 5 tables in testdatabase to the 5 tables of the production-database.For (3), I currently use a DTS-package which consists of a "Copy SQL Server Objects"-task. This task is configured to copy the 5 tables (objects) from testdatabase to productiondatabase. The data in these 5 tables is around 20GB, and this task takes a lot of time compared to a backup/restore of the same size of data. I already tried to speed it up by creating different filegroups and wanted to restore only 1 filegroup but you can read here that making a filegroup backup on a testdatabase and trying to restore it on a production database won't work. Is there some other way to speed this up? Is my current way of working good practice?
Thx!

Copy objects and data between SQL Server databases
"
Display the Select Objects to Transfer dialog box, where you can specify both objects and data to copy, if both the data source and destination are Microsoft® SQL Server™ databases. The objects you can transfer include tables, views, stored procedures, defaults, rules, constraints, user-defined data types, logins, users, roles, and indexes. You can transfer objects only between multiple instances of SQL Server version 7.0, from an instance of SQL Server 7.0 to an instance of SQL Server 2000, and between multiple instances of SQL Server 2000.
"
can I apply "Copy objects and data between SQL Server databases"
to run in two different sqlserver 2000 ( not an instance ) . what I mean is I have two different sql servers located in two different locations( I am not using an instance installation) can I still run the copy and get an identical database in both servers.
Q2. if I have two sql server 2000 with different collations (one is binary and the other is the default) will I be able to run the copy wizard and still have an identical copy of sql server in both servers.
I personally tried to run the copy wizard and IT NEVER WORKED FOR ME and I really do not know the reason.
Thanks for your input.

I 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

I was contacted by the SAN team to test backup/restore of larger databases using a split-mirror backup (BCV) or clone that is taken from production db server and copied to another sql box. They want to use this process once a week. I see the mounted drives with the data/log files. All looks good. Initially I attempted to attach the databases and received (Unable to open the physical file db.mdf Operating System Error 5 Access is denied). I manually granting SQLServerMSSQLUser$<computer_name>$<instance_name> on all of the physical files 20 total. That worked.
Since this will be weekly, the SAN team performed the copy again and now none of the databases can communicate with the newly copied files. NTFS permissions need to be set again. I'm getting (Operating System error 21: the device is not ready). Is there something that I'm missing in this process how the vendor BCV clones the data and SQL communicates with the copied files as I was thinking it would be more automated process?

I have to merge the data from two databases, one is in SQL Server 2005 format, one is in 2000. The merged data will then reside on a SQL Server 2000 platform. Is there an easy way to do this through Management Studio or Enterprise Manager? Or will we have to export the data from the 2005 database to a flat file and import it into a new 2000 database. And then do the merge?
TIA

Trying 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.

I dont alot about sql server 2005(Express edition). For debugging purposes i want to copy the whole app_data folder(.mdf & .log files) on the production server to another folder on the same machine(or sometimes to a network folder). So when i copy and try to paste this App_data folder to a new location, i get this error message
"cannot copy ASPNETDB: it is being used by another person or program. close any programs that might be using the file and try again."
After reading the above message, i close visual web developer, stop the website in IIS and stop the SQLExpress service on the server and try again but still get the same message.
So how can i make sure that all the programs accessing these database files are closed such that i'm able able to copy them to a different location.

I want to copy a table from SQL 2000 to SQL 7, that are connected though internet. Since the SQL 2000 is my web server, I don't want to touch it. Therefore, I try to create a DTS package in SQL 7 to copy the data, but fail. I cannot connect to SQL 2000, actually it is a Small Business Server 2003. However, I could connect the SQL 2000 at another computer with the Enterprise Manager that comes with SBS2003. The Enterprise Manager that comes with SQL 7 cannot register the SQL 2000.
Could anyone help me, please?
Will it be solved if I install the lastest MDAC?
Any T-SQL would work like VB's createobject("ADODB...")? Then I could write a stored procedure to do the copying.
Thank you.

Is it possible to copy a database from SQL Server 2000 to a server running 7.0? The servers are part of different networks so an intermediate file must be used.
Backing up the 2000 db and attempting a restore in 7 does not work -- it did not find the database info in the file.
TIA,

I am a little embarrased to be asking this question because I know that the answer must be simple but I am still a nube at SQL. I am stuck with a simple query that copies one field of data into another. Below is the script that I am trying to execute.
UPDATE table
SET field2 = field1
I get an error from SQL Server that says that the String or binary data would be truncated. I am assuming that the SQL server is trying to concatenate all the value of field1 into field2. All I am trying to do is copy the values of one field into another for each and every row in the table. Thanks in advance.

I am more used to doing this in Oracle sopls bear with me...I don't want to have any downtime on the 6.5 db, so I'm thinking perhapsimport is the best way to go? I am assuming that 6.5 backups are notcomaptible with either 7 or 2000 restore, or I'd go that route.The database in question is fairly simple, pretty well just tables fullof data, no stored procs...suggestions?TIA
