Hi again,
I have setup a maintenance plan schedule, my question is; can I create an
additional plans located on another network location ?
In my attempts the only locations displayed are those on the current server.
thank you
Help!!!
Our Database Maintenance Plan has stopped backing up the database. I can manually backup the database but the plan does not work. We tried creating a new plan but the new plan is not backing up either. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thank you for your help!
I made a backup maintenace plan in sql7.0, but it doesn´t work. The message included on the event logger is:
SQLServerAgent
SQL Server Scheduled Job
'DB Backup Job for DB Maintenance Plan 'Teste''
(0x219C5CB03C11D4119D8F0020188D7311) -
Status: Failed - Invoked on: 4/17/00 3:25:00 PM - Message:
The job failed. The Job was invoked by Schedule 12 (Schedule 1).
The last step to run was step 1 (Step 1).
And before this message there is another one that can be making something goes wrong:
SQLServerProfiler
Executable: C:WINNTsystem32mmc.exe
Description: Unable_To_Set_RegKey_Val
Source: ........srceventlog.c
Line: 315
Someone can help me telling me the reason that is generating this kind of error and doesn´t work. I have do the same think in others two server and there it works ok.
Thanks in regards

Hello All,
Few days before, I had setup Maintanance plan for taking backup in 2005. It was running nice.But suddenly it stops automatically. It is not creating log file too.
Does anyone faced this type of problem ? Or does anybody knows the workaround for this.
Thanks in advance

I am moving from one physical server to another. I have a full working maintenance plan backing up the databases on the production server.
Is there a way to "script" / move the maintenace plan from the productiuon server to the new one easily?
thanks for help!

Does any body have any good recommendations for maintenace plans?
Here are few questions I have.
When should indexes be re-indexed?
What should be done first? Reorganize indexes or rebuild indexes?
How often backups should be done and what kind?
How often should database statistics be updated?
Do database statistics need need to be updated on system databases?
How often should a database integrity check be done?
How long should history be kept for?
What is a good order for tasks should be done?
Any input would be great

I had to to relocate the database log file and I issued an Alter database command but by mistake I put a space in the file name as below. The space is at the beginning file name. Now I am unable get the database loaded to SQL Server. The database has 2 replications configured, so deleting and re-attaching the database means the replication needs to be re-configured. Is there an alternative way to issue a command to update the database FILENAME ? Not sure if this can be edited in master database (sys files).
ALTER DATABASE [User_DB]
MODIFY FILE (NAME = User_DB_log, FILENAME = 'I:SQLLogs User_DB_log.ldf')

Greetings, I have just arrived back into the country (NZ) and back into ASP.NET.
I am having trouble with the following:An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file (file location).../Database.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share.
It has only begun since i decided i wanted to use IIS, I realise VWD comes with its own localhost, but since it is only temporary, i wanted a permanent shortcut on my desktop to link to my intranet page.
Anyone have any ideas why i am getting the above error? have searched many places on the internet and not getting any closer.
Cheers ~ J
Got a couple of questions
1. If you are managing databases in SQL Express with SQL Server Managment Express CTP, why doesnt VBE place the database there where you can see them? I can create a database inside SQL Server Managment Express CTP and view its tables, relations,etc. from within SQL Server Managment Express CTP, but when I make a database with VBE it does not show up in SQL Server Managment Express CTP. Also the database that was made inside SQL Server Managment Express CTP cannot be seen from VBE. Why? what did I do wrong, or is it supposed to be like that? Is that where you would want to place a database for multiple pc to share?
2.Login Question ;-----shouldnt post this here but,
Is there a reason why you dont want to use SQL Authetication over Windows? The are a few pcs here that doesnt have user accounts installed(I know that not a good practice, but when you have multiple people needing different data quickly- switching users is not preferred, its a time thing for what I would call dummy terminals).
How do you take an instance of SQL and change to SQL Authetication over windows?
Curious?

Hi all,
We need an architecture in which one office is in pune and other in mumbai,
principal server is in pune and mirrored in mumbai,
now we need an architecture in which mumbai user will performing read only operation from mumbai server (local server )and write operation in pune server(remote server)
and pune user will be performing read and write operation in pune server(local server)
now when link between pune and mumbai goes down, mumbai users will not be having acess to pune server so at that time mumbai user will not be performing write operation in pune server (local server) and when link goes up we want mumbai server to get updated with pune server.
how this is possible or any other different solution to this, what mandatory is we want mumbai users to perform read operation from mumbai server ONLY.

SQL location:
When I create the setup for the Teacher Starter Kit( Created with Visual Basic) (Click Once Setup) and install it in someone else computer, I can not find the SQL database ( in sense of opening it and tweak it in case i need to). the program works fine and store data, but where is the database?!! that I can not find. can you help me please? or explain.
Later On I would need to instal the ClickOnce setup of this application on a server in so everyone can reach it. is the the ClickOnce setup sufficient for this task. and will the database be added to the SQL SERVER databases ?
Please advice ...
Thank you.

If you enter "Create Database test", the database files (mdf file & log file) are created, by default, in:-
C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLData
I want to change that to:-
D:Database Files
I sucessfully moved the model database to this location (using the instructions in BOL) assuming that all new databases would now get created in the same location, but they don't. They still get created in:
C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLData
So how do I change the default?
(It's not satisfactory to have to move each database after it's created)
Thanks, Andy Abel
I have installed my modell database onto c:mssql7data...
How do I now change the properties of this so that when someone creates a database, the path it will get created to is set to d:
I thought that I could just move model, but it seems that this isn't possible.
Any advice?
thanks

I have C,D,E drives on server. Data files will be on D and Log on E. My question is what is best practice for data and log files for system databases during sql server installation selection? Should they be on C drive along with SQL Server installation or D & E? If they should not be on C then what is the reason and what is benefit to move them on other drives.

Hi,
I would like to change the default location where new databases are created.
In Server Management Studio, I right clicked my instance and selected Properties. I selected the Database Settings option and am presented with an option to change the Database Default Location (the location for databases and logs can be changed here). If I change the paths for the DB's and logs, and create a new DB, the new files are saved to the new default location paths that I just entered.
My question is this:
If I change these paths, will my system databases (master, model, msdb, tempdb) still be accessible and usable by SQL server? I don't need (want) to change the location of these files, only all my other databases and logs.
Will this do what I want?
Thanks for the help!

Hey everyone I've got this question that has me stuck for the last few days but its an important part of my website.....What I am trying to do is basicly have a user be able to upload a file, have that uploaded file plus some other info automaticly display on other parts of my site, and have a different user eventually be able to download that file....I have thought about allowing the file upload as a BLOB but still cannot find a proper way to execute this using VB, plus I have heard that this way of doing it is not reccommeneded cause databases were not designed to store large files like this, lots of articles recommened having the file upload to a Folder on your server then get the binary data for the file that can be placed in a database to refrence that particular file.....Well this also proves to be a lot harder then said here is what I got so far (written in C#) protected void UploadBtn_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (FileUpLoad1.HasFile)
{
FileUpLoad1.SaveAs(@"C:Documents and SettingsAdamMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2005ProjectsWebsiteFiles" + FileUpLoad1.FileName);
Label1.Text = "File Uploaded: " + FileUpLoad1.FileName;
}
else
{
Label1.Text = "No File Uploaded.";
}
}
and here is the asp part of the code that goes with it<asp:FileUpLoad id="FileUpLoad1" runat="server" />
<asp:Button id="UploadBtn" Text="Upload File" OnClick="UploadBtn_Click" runat="server" Width="105px" />
<asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text=""></asp:Label>
Now from what I know is I need to get the binary of the file which I have read you can do with the Page.Request.Files statement but again not sure how I would impliment this. Does anyone have any suggestions on which way I should take when dealing with this should I try and just use the BLOB method or use the binary refrence method? and if so how would I impliment this, heck even some good tutorials on the subject would be great... Thanks.....Adam
In SQL Server 2012 Instance properties ,database default location is not showing system drive E: which was my backup drive. How can I add it again?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI've configured log shipping to use for DR purposes. I'm concerned that the physical location of the secondary is mis-reported by SQL Server Management Studio.
Viewing the secondary location (with Studio DB_name Properties Files) shows the path of the primary DB (I expected it to show the path of the secondary).
This SQL command shows the correct/actual paths of both primary and secondary DB's when run on their host servers.
SELECT name, physical_name AS CurrentLocation, state_desc FROM sys.master_files
Is this just cosmetic?
Here is an Example of how the Studio shows the incorrect path for the secondary.
Example:
(Primary) servername=prodSrv, DBname=aquaDB, Actual_Path=G:aquaDB, SQL-studio-Properties-Path=G:AquaDB, sys.master_files Path=G:AquaDB,
Log shipped to
(Secondary / Read Only) servername=DRSrv, DBname=aquaDB, Actual Path=F:aquaDR, SQL-studio-Properties-Path=G:AquaDB(WRONG), sys.master_files Path=F:aquaDR
I'm using SQL Server 2012 and was attempting to move the msdb, model, and tempdb databases to a new location and accidentally gave their log files an mdf extension instead of ldf when providing the new pathfilename. After the server wouldn't start I checked my script and noticed my error. I have good backups of my system databases, so I was hoping to start the MSSQLSERVER service in single-user mode (using the -m startup parameter) and then just restore master using sqlcmd.Â
Unfortunately the service was starting but I couldn't connect via sqlcmd using any of the three protocols (it said the server was not found or not accessible each time). I also tried using the dedicated Admin connection but I got the same error. Then I went into the Templates folder and copied the master, msdb, model, and tempdb templates into the DATA folder and tried to restart SQL Server but still no luck (now the MSSQLSERVER service won't start at all). Is there an easy way to fix this mess without having to reinstall from the setup application?
Hello,I am working on a web site which will use SQL 2005.I am planing my first SQL database and I am looking for advice.1. There will be two types of users: students and professors.2. Both users types will have login information. (Username, Password, AccessLevel) 3. The remaining information on students and professores is different. Student (Name, Email, Phone, ...) / Professor (Name, Email, Phone, Subjects, ...)4. Professors can publish documents. Each document has some info (Type, Title, Description, ...)My plan in this moment is to:A. Create the tables Students, Professors, Login and Documents.B. Students table would be connected to Login table. Professors table would be connected to Login table and Documents table.C. The field [Type] in documents table should include the type or should I create a table DocumentsTypes where I add codes for each type. I have seen this. What is the advantage?Can someone give me some advice?Thank you Very Much,Miguel
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi there,
We are using a database maintenance plan to backup and reindex our db's. Up until the end of last month this was working perfectly - however now it has stopped deleting the old backups (even though we have checked 'Delete files over 1 day old').
Does anyone have any ideas as to why they are now being deleted - and how we can remove them automatically - has something been corruped? Would it be a case of creating a new maintenance plan?
thanks in advance,

Hi everyone,
I am trying to implement a plan for a SQL7 database that is used by the company I work for. Having read the SQL manuals I have come to the following conclusion:
I want to do a complete backup of the database at midnight and do a transaction log backup every 30 minutes between 7am and 7pm. I am hoping this will allow me to 'undo' any user mistakes and roll back the database changes to the last transaction log backup.
The questions I have are:
1) By backing up the transaction log every 30 minutes, will this then give me the ability to 'roll back' the database to the last time the transaction log was backed up (i.e. 30 minutes max) ?
2) How do I load the transaction log back in ? (i.e roll the database changes back). A simple Restore operation (with truncate ???)
3)Am I totally confused or on the right track ?
Thanks,
Tim
