Hello:
I am supporting a mssql 6.5, sp 4 application.
We have set up an user acceptance server with a database that is the same as production. However, I have been told that this database and server may be used for applying fixes rather than user acceptance.
To avoid confusion over which database is on which server, it might be a good idea to rename the database. I am not sure if this can be done un der mssql 6.5?
1)Can I rename a database?
2)If so, how can I do so?
Which system tables would I use to update?
Any information you can furnish will be appreciated. THanks.

How does one make a copy of a database (with the data) on the sameserver. Would like to do this to use the copy in a test environment. Ilooked at the Copy Database Wizard but the instructions in Books Onlinestate that the database must be copied to another server and cannot berenamed using this process.Thank you.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI didn't know exactly which forum to post this in, so if I need to post it into another one, please let me know. Also, I have absolutely no SQL or DB experience. I am learning as I go.
The Situation:
I created a virtual network for my company which included MS CRM, which uses SQL Server 2005. Everything was working fine until today. My company asked me to make a change to the domain name, as we are changing company names. I followed the processes through microsoft's documentation that I found online. The rename went fine. Since then, we can no longer access CRM. When I run the environment checks, it gets hung up on the SQL Server components. It says that it can't confirm the MSSQLSERVER service is running (it is) and it can't connect to the database. As best as I can tell, the database is looking for the old domain name, which doesn't exist. How do I edit or configure the existing database to reflect the new domain name. It's important to do this as we have data in that database that we need to access. Any help in this matter is very much appreciated!!!
Hi All,
Can we have an sql server installation where we dont have a master database. Can the complete data dictionary be stored in another database , or put it other way can master database be renamed.
I have a need to assume that there will always be a master database for any SQL server instance. Want to confirm whether this assumption is true or not.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
first of all escuse my English. I'm new to SQL Server, my experience is with MySQL, Interbase and Firebird, but now I have a new job so I need to use SQL Server, version 2005 Express.
I have two SQL 2005 Express installations in two different machines (local and remote). I can access both servers via SQL Management Studio
I need to do the following:
1) Create a copy of a database with a new name in the same machine (local).
2) Copy the new renamed database to another host (remote)
Please help me, remember I use Express edition.
Thanks in advance.

I am using Linked Server in SQL Server 2008R2 connecting to a couple of Linked Servers.
I was able to connect Linked Servers, but I cannot point to a specific database in a Linked Server, also, I cannot rename Linked Server's name.
How to point the linked server to a specific database? How to rename the Linked Server?
The following is the code that I am using right now:
USE [master]
GO
EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedserver
@server = N'Machine123Instance456',
@srvproduct=N'SQL Server' ;
GO
EXEC sp_addlinkedsrvlogin 'Machine123Instance456', 'false', NULL, 'username', 'password'
i am trying to set up a way of renaming a table in a sp.
ive been using
exec sp_rename 'old table', 'new table'
however if i try and specify to database and owner i end up with a weired db.owm.db.own.table name in the outcome. ive tried putting using it without specifying a db name in a sp and then sched job to exec the sp but it doesnt rename, probably because it doesn know which db to look for the ld table name in. however the sched job doesnt fail?
any ideas?

Does someone know how a DTS package can be renamed ?
TIA
if my computer name is x and sql server was installed and therefore took on the default name of x, can I change the sql server name to y at a later date while the computer name remains as x? If so how do I do it?
The sp_addserver is internal recognition. But I want to connect to sql server using the new name y.
I am assuming setup needs to be run only if computer name also changes to y and this is not the case.
Any help is appreciated.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIn EM, when you right click a database and go to properties you can see on the general tab the file name,the location,the space allocated in MB and the file group.
Is it possible to change the file name and how you achieve it?
Where are these names stored?
I really appeciate any suggestions.
Thank you very much!

To all,
I would like to rename my SQL server. Someone suggested SQLServer and we went with it, but after some discussions with other developers we thought that this name would be a hackers delight. So now I need to rename it to something that wouldn't put a "bulls eye" on its back. Any suggestions? :-)
This machine is not in production just yet, so if I had to reinstall SQL it wouldnt' be that bad of an option.
Thnx.
