Is It Possible To Restore A Database But Preserve The Security Of The Database?
Apr 26, 2007
i have a development database that has updates and changes to a production database. rather than go through individually and alter all relevant tables and stored procedures, id like to back up the database on the development side and restore it on the production side as the production database. is there a way to restore the database on the production server but preserve all the security settings (ie logins and such)? i noticed on our development server, that if i try to restore the database with my development database, it overwrites the users and/or if the user is the same on both, it removes the login name for that user.

I have a database used in SSRS in which I get a backup daily and restore it to database "DATA"
The issue I come across is SSRS has a datareader user(ssrsuser) for access to the "report store" web where users get reports
access gets erased on each restore. Can I add something to my job to restore this user after each restore or keep the settings?
declare @Bakpath varchar(80)
set @bakpath = 'C:EDataExtractedDataextract.bak'
Use Master
Alter Database [Data]
SET SINGLE_USER With ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE
RESTORE DATABASE [Data] FROM DISK = @bakpath --location of .bak file
WITH REPLACE
GO

Hi, I'm a noob who sucks at programming, and sucks even more when it comes to database.
I'm operating a small website with an SQL Server database that drives my shopping cart. I want to close this website down, but I don't want to lose all the data in the database in case I want to do something in the future.
How do you backup the entire database into a file so i might be able to import it at later times? Do I have to do this with SQL, T-SQL, or the manager?

I am setting up SQL audit on sql servers in my environment based on requirement. I want to create database specifications ASAP database created. I tried DDL trigger but Audit doesn't support triggers. So I created audit specifications on model database. the only problem with this is every specification created on new database with same name.database specification name includes newly created database name or other methods to create database specifications on newly created databases.

In SSMS, I connect Object Explorer to a partially contained database using a contained user login with password. This user has a database role of dbdatareader. When I try to expand the Tables in the database, I get the error:Â
The SELECT permission was denied on the object 'extended_properties', database 'mssqlsystemresource', schema 'sys'. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 229)
Is there a way to set permissions for the contained user so that this could be done?

I had created 2 Sql server instance in 2 servers created using VMware. From the primary server I log shipped the required databases into the secondary. Both the servers were in the same domain whose active directory was also in another server in the same virtual lab environment. My question can we have the primary sql server in one domain and the secondary sql server to which the logs are shipped in another domain by including a router also between the 2 networks for connectivity?

I have a problem when i restore my .DAT_BAK file. I am getting error like "The backup set holds a backup of a database other than existing database. Restore Database is terminating abnormally".
I tried by using
RESTORE DATABASE <DATABASENAME>
FROM DISK = 'D:DATAMYTEST.DAT_BAK'
WITH MOVE 'VZAI_DATA' TO D:PROGRAM FILES..MSSQLTEST.MDF',
MOVE 'VZAI_LOG' TO D:PROGRAM FILES..MSSQLTEST.LDF',
REPLACE
And also i tried like
RESTORE DATABASE <DATABASENAME>
FROM DISK = 'D:DATAMYTEST.DAT_BAK'
WITH REPLACE
When i use like this,

I have a script that automates some db drop/restore operations and bringing the database to single user mode is part of it: ALTER DATABASE ... SET SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE...I want this to executes under a login, that has restricted privileges, so I've created a login and granted it a dbcreator role + ALTER ANY DATABASE privileges.
Problem: When I run the script against a database with an active/sleeping connection:It fails when using the restricted login: "Msg 5061...ALTER DATA BASE failed because a lock could not be placed on database ..."It completes successfully when using a sysadmin login According to stackoverflow.com the solution is to kill the active/sleeping connections to the database, before ALTER-ing it, which works fine, but the question is....
Questions: Why the "ALTER DATABASE..." statement works under the sysadmin login, but not under a dbcreator one?Does this mean the sysadmin login kills the connections to the target database in the background?Is it possible to grant additional privileges to the restricted login, so the "ALTER DATABASE..." statement won't need preventive killing of the connections?

Anybody figure a way around this:
In a development server you take a backup and you want to move the entire database to a production server. The production server does not contain the database, users, or logins in master.
When you restore the backup to production in 7.0, the users get moved to DBO because the logins do not exist and then you cannot delete them.
We are having to drop the users from the database on development, back up the database and restore it to production, then recreate the users on production.
This is bogus and did not happen in 6.5 because of the aliases.
Anybody come up with a better way?

I am fairly new to VS 2005 and SQL Server CE. I have developed a Desktop Windows application using VB 2005 and the SQL Compact Edition Database. This application will sell to users via web download.
When they download a service patch, or updated version, I wish for them to retain the data in their present database. In other words, fill the new database with the old data. The new table structures will remain intact except for added columns at the end.
Question is how to save the old data and update the new database with it. Is there an easy way to do this, or do I need to write a module to save a database copy, and update the new database with content at install time?

Trying to keep out sysadmins & sa during/between database RESTORE
Configuration:
WINNT Server Enterprise 4.0 w/SP5
SQL Server 7 Enterprise & SP1
2 SQL Servers:
Production Server
Standby server
I Backup (full backup) databases to disk on primary server (logical backup devices are physicaly located on a Standby server (dedicated gigabit NIC in each server for this process). Transaction logs are applied to the Standby server throughout the day.
Problem:
How to keep out "sa" and sysadmins from a database while I'm restoring (or between restores) to a standby server?
The database being restored cannot be in use during a restore.
If a DBA forgets that this process is happening, the statement fails (RESTORE)for the database they happen to be in at the time of the restore.
Example restore statement:
Standby Server -
RESTORE DATABASE databasename FROM database_dd WITH DBO_ONLY, REPLACE, STANDBY = 'g:Mssql7FromPrimaryDatabaseName_undo.ldf'
I could restrict Domain sysadmin access and change sa password. I could also put the database in "Single user" mode, however this could become problem if my process disconnects and then someone else connects - then my process is locked out. What I'm really looking for is to lock out all activity for a database that is in "standby mode" except for RESTORE processes.
Any ideas??

Sometime during the night last night some user account permissions were "lost". Am I right to think that restoring the master database would be the way to go? We have a 2 node 2012 cluster and I stop the cluster resource and start the db in single user mode from the active node. Somehow the sharepoint farm is still trying to connect so I can't get logged in single user. What method could I use to stop users from connecting when I don't have access to the sharepoint farm.

Hi,
I was wondering how I could restore a bkp file into a database with a different name. For example, I made a backup of T1.mdf and i want to restore t1.bkp to T2.mdf.
I am using VB.Net to do the backup and restore.
Is there any way of doing it?
Thanks!

I have a client that has POS software called Restaurant Pro Express (RPE) from [URL] ...
Their old POS computer had a hardware failure, but I was able to attach the hard-drive to another computer and recover the data. RPE uses a MSSQL database system. However, my client doesn't seem to make backups very often
- the last one is dated January 5, 2015. I was able to copy the C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server folder over which contained the instance as well as all the data files - and has up-to-date information. The instance in the recovered Microsoft SQL Server folder was called MSSQL.1. I installed the RPE software on their new computer, and it too now has an instance called MSSQL10_50.PCAMERICA. The new computer is using MSSQL 2008 R2, while I believe the old computer would have been using MSSQL 2005.
I am no DBA expert, especially when it comes to MSSQL. Is is possible to 'restore' the database from the 'raw' .mdf and .ldf files of the old computer to the new computer / database instance? If so, how should I proceed?

I have seen this before. A 2000 restore fails, leaving the database thinking it is being restored but the restore job failed and errors when it is restarted. EM is clueless. I believe there is a proc to reset some flag. Can you share it with me???

I had a major disk failure, and the only SQL Server files I was able to recover were master.dat, msdb.dat,msdblog.dat, two text files and two database devices. My question, is it possible in SQL 6.5 to restore a database from just the database device, and if so, how? Thank you.

I'm a newbie so please be gentle.In attempting to run a restore I get the following error message:"Exclusive access could not be obtained because the database is inuse." However, it doesn't appear that there are any connections to thedatabase. At the suggestion of another thread, I ran sp_who2 and thereare no connections to the database in question. I've been running thesame restore for months and all has been well, until yesterday....I wrote an .asp page (below) to test connectivity to this database.The vb code ran successfully and soon thereafter, my nightly restorefailed. Task manager does no show that the asp page is active.Lastly, I did add a user ("jbtest") as well as change the option to useeither Windows authentication or SQL Server authentication inEnterprise Manager.Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.Thanks.<%@ Language=VBScript %><%companyName = "agemni"Set cnn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")cnn.ConnectionString = "DRIVER=SQLServer;SERVER=SHEELA-NA-GIG;UID=jbtest;PWD=test1;APP=MicrosoftDevelopment Environment;WSID=SHEELA-NA-GIG;DATABASE=" & companyName &";Trusted_Connection=No"cnn.ConnectionTimeout = 300cnn.CommandTimeout = 300cnn.OpenSet RS = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")strSQL = "SELECT * FROM Preferences"RS.Open strSQL, cnnResponse.Write "connection established with the <b>" & RS("CompanyName") & "</b> database.

Hi,
I have just built a new SQL7 server (SQL SP3 and NT SP6a) server and need a bit of advice on implementing database security.
This new SQL server will be used by several projects which require a SQL database, our Personnel system being one of them. Since the data in the Personnel system is obviously of a sensitive nature I need to restrict access to the data. Client access is controlled via a client application but I need to restrict Enterprise Manager, Query analyzer ... type of access.
We have a team of people who look after the servers on a day to day basis and these are all Domain Administrators. By default these people will be able to browse into the Personnel database and read the information.
How can I restrict access to a SQL database so that only named users (SQL and NT) can access a database ? If database level access is required then we would need to obtain the SQL user password from Personnel which will then allow mainenance access, after which the password si changed by Personnel.
Any thoughts ?
Thanks,
Tim

What is the standard for database security – windows login or sql server logins? User defined database roles?
We have earlier used a single sql server login with read/write permissions to tables & exec on stored procedures. Individual application users are stored in database tables & their permissions are handled by the application itself. But we are starting to get concerned about password issues with the sql login & also that when I see any connections on the database, all of hem show up with the same sql login. So I cannot make out which user exactly has a connection open.
To get around these issues, we are thinking to add NT logins for each user. These users will be part of an NT group and will be added as a user to the database. There will be a database role with exec permissions to required stored procedures (all read/write/update will be controlled through SPs) and the NT group will be part of this role. The stored procedures will be encrypted. So if a NT user logs in directly to the database, he won’t be able to read from the tables or SPs and access will be limited through the application.
I will be able to see each login associated with a connection.
What do you all think about this security set up? What are other issues I need to be concerned about? What are other popular database security models?
Thanks!

Hi experts, I would like to ask if it is feasible to limit the accessibility of an SA account in SQL 2005 in a specific database. The reason of doing this procedure is since we are deploying a package software to our client(s) we want to secure our own database to get tampered by our client(s).

Is there a way to create and encrypted database file?What do people do when data security is important at the file level? Inother words, you don't want anyone to be able to take the database file (orfiles) and extract data from them.Ideally, I want a file the is absolutely encrypted on disk and that isdecrypted for data access. The problem, obviously, is that this would be avery costly (cpu time) approach as you couldn't create a decrypted image ondisk (this would expose the data).Are all database systems then, non-secure?Thanks,-Martin
