does anyone know how I can migrate SQL 2000 data to SQL 2005 database? I'm trying to create an application that will connect to SQL 2000 database using VS2003 and transfer data to SQL2005 database but it doesn't seem to work. Any suggestion is greatly appriciated.
Is there a tool available (or planned) to migrate SQL Server 2000 database to SQL Server 2005 ? I came across this (http://www.timespring.net/TS_TD_SQL05offer.htm?track=NL-464&ad=524331) but are there any other tools ?
Has Microsoft planned anything of its own for this ?

I am planning to migrate sql server 2000 databases to sql server 2005(sql server 2005 in a separate box) .I have few questions regarding the migration:
1. Do I have to run Upgrade wizard on 2000 even though I am not upgrading my sql server?
2.Which other databases do I need to move in addition to the user databases. (i.e. do i have to move any system databases?).
3. What do I need to do to move sql server logins with the password to the new machine?
I've got the responsibility over a small SQL server with 8 Database and approx. 100GByte data online. Most database are used and need to be available 24*7*366. Also a number of local data transformation packages are defined and used on a regular basis. Furthermore a number of third party applications rely on this database.
My question if it is worth the effort to migrate this to 2005? I know there are all kinds of nice migration wizards but do they really work? What if one of the 3rd party apps don't like 2005?
Love to hear both good and bad experiences migrating -> 2005 .
Dear All, at present all our servers are running with sql server 2000. we are planned to upgrade to sql server 2005 standard edition. what is the approach i need to follow? can i directly go for installation of sql server 2005, and then use copy database wizard? this is a production environment, and we even not give 5 min of downtime. please help me in this regard
Arnav Even you learn 1%, Learn it with 100% confidence.
Initially, the articles I read suggested that doing an "in place" upgrade is the simplest path, with the drawback that if something goes wrong, I'll have to re-install 2000. And that migrating is more difficult since I'll have to recreate all the logins , security, replication ....
Then I saw a series of posts saying migration is the best ... backup & restore (or detach, reattach) the DBs to a new instance of SQL 2005. What about the systems DBs, such as MSDB and the DTS packages ?? Also, If I migrate to a new instance of SQL, how will I re-establish the connections from other servers ? They are replicating or DTS-ing to ServerA, but now SQL2005 is on ServerASQL2005 (Same server, different instance.
In the scale of things, we have fairly simple environments, although our Production database is almost 300 Gig.
If I install a new instance of SQL 2005 on my SQL 2000 server, and migrate everything from 2000 to 2005, I now have 2 instances: ServerA and ServerASQL2005. All my other servers are referencing the original instance name of ServerA. How do I resolve that problem so that communication between the other servers will still work ??
Hi all, in my current environment, I have a single server SQL 2000 setup that's being replaced. I'm in the process of installing a new SQL 2005 cluster with the thought of taking advantage of 2005 mirroring and clustering, but have a few questions.
1. My thinking is that I can migrate my 2000 databases to 2005, but leave the databases in 8.0 (2000) mode. Are there any issues with this? I know they won't take advantage of the 2005 performance boost
2. Some of the apps don't support 2005 yet so I need to leave them in 2000 mode until they do. Is SQL 2005 fully backwards compatible with a SQL 2000 database?
3. Will mirroring work on SQL 2005 with a database that is still in 2000 mode?
I have to migrate SQL Server 7.0 data to SQL Server 2000. How to go about doing this migration. What are the steps? Any pre-requisit before doing the migration?
Is there any book or KB articles or White paper on this topic on the net.
I plan to migrate a SQL 2000 instance with everything in it to another SQL2000 server, and eventually in the future to SQL 2005.
I've pretty much figured out how to migrate everything execept the linked server configuration (there're many linked servers configured in the old server with different security credentials). I'm wondering if there's way I can save the linked server configuration and restore it to the other server.
I've got about 2 months worth of daily databases created in SQL Express 2005 for a pilot project, which the client is converting to a purchase. Unfortunately they're using SQL Server 2000 and I can't figure out how to migrate the databases to the older version. All my searching turns up how to do it in the expected direction.
Any pointers to how or where to search appreciated.

My company is currently using MS Sql Server 2000 for applications, and in Windows Server 2000. The database holds great amount of information. Recently, my company needs to migrate database from Sql Server 2000 to 2005. How could I safely migrate the database from sql server 2000 to 2005? Could you all give me the guides?
Also, in what aspect I should pay attention on the performance of sql server 2005?
I am trying to migrate my reports from SQL server 2000 reporting services 32bit to 2005 64bit. I am following the migration steps that MS specified. Restored my Reportserver and ReportserverTempDB databases Then I was using the configure Report services to upgrade these databases but I always end up getting the follwoing exception when I run the upgrade on the "Database Setup" configuration for 'ReportServerTempDB' database System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Could not locate entry in sysdatabases for database 'ReportServerTempDBTempDB'. No entry found with that name. Make sure that the name is entered correctly. at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection) at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.ThrowExceptionAndWarning(TdsParserStateObject stateObj) at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.Run(RunBehavior runBehavior, SqlCommand cmdHandler, SqlDataReader dataStream, BulkCopySimpleResultSet bulkCopyHandler, TdsParserStateObject stateObj) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.RunExecuteNonQueryTds(String methodName, Boolean async) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.InternalExecuteNonQuery(DbAsyncResult result, String methodName, Boolean sendToPipe) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.ExecuteNonQuery() at Microsoft.ReportingServices.Common.DBUtils.ApplyScript(String connectionString, String script) at ReportServicesConfigUI.SqlClientTools.SqlTools.ApplyScript(String connectionString, String script)
It's driving me crazy, why is it looking for 'ReportServerTempDBTempDB' in the catalog instead of 'ReportServerTempDB'? Is it possible to migrate from 32bit to 64bit?
I'll be doing a migration of all my exisitng SQL7 databases to SQL2000. We are planning to buy new servers for the upgrade. What is the best way to move the entire database?
A) Use copy DB wizard? B) Create own DTS package to move everything? C) Script the entire DB and run it on the new server and then move the data? D) Do a backup and restore it onto the new server?
What are the best options? Are there anything that i should be aware of?
I need to take the records from my MS Access DB and migrate them to SQL. I have both db table structures somewhat mapped out and its only about 43 records or lines. The data in Access is all kept in a single table and in SQL I need to have it populate seperate individual tables.
We are moving all databases from a SQL version 7 server to a version 2000server. Which of the following is the preferred method?1) Detach the DB on the version 7 server, move it to the new server viaWindows Explorer and reattach it there.2) Use SQL Enterprise Mananger with the DTS Export Wizard to "copy objects &data between SQL server databases" from the version 7 server to the 2000server.With the changing of the version, I thought maybe option 2 is best. Thoughts?--Mike CzizekIowa Network Services, Inc.Join Bytes!
I have installed a new SQL 2005 server and successfully moved a db from one to the other. The users from that db were also imported, but the system security was not. Users cannot access the SQL system to even attempt to login to the db. What am I missing to import/transfer/migrate the system logins from SQL2000 to SQL2005?
I've try to use DTS to import data from Sybase 11 database to MSSQL2000 database. After the import process completed, I found that all the Keys, triggers disappeared. How do I solve the problem???
I'm stuck with this and I haven't idea how to solve it. I'm trying to migrate a dts 2000 package from BIDS and I obtain this message:
This wizard will close because it encountered the following error:
Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection. Parameter name: index (mscorlib)
I'm going to Migrate DTS 2000 Package select my current sql2k production server (it has almost 600 dts although I think that is not any problem at all)
Wizard recognize without problems my server and then I put a folder for save them but on the next step appears the aforementioned message.
Hi, I am trying to edit some data from a SQL2000-datasource in ASP.NET 2.0 and have a problem with a column that has bit-data and is used for selection. SQL2005 works fine when declaring <SelectParameters> <asp:Parameter DefaultValue="TRUE" Name="APL" Type="boolean" /> </SelectParameters>When running this code with SQL2000, there are no error-msgs, but after editing a record the "APL"-column looses its value of 1 and is set to 0. Looks like an issue with type-conversion, we've hit incompatibilities between SQL200 and 2005 with bit/boolean several times before. So, how is this done correctly with SQL2000? (I've tried setting the Type to "int16" -> err. Also setting Defval="1" gave an err) ThanksMichael
