  • I want to restore over a database which I do not know how may people are using. I cannot stop my server.

    There Two solutions

    1)      If I come two know exactly who are currenty connected with database. Then I may ask to close the connection

    2)      If I am able to restore it without asking anybody to disconnect and they get disconnected automatically.

    I want to restore database any how.

  • Hi,

     

    1)      If I come two know exactly who are currenty connected with database. Then I may ask to close the connection

     

         You may run sp_who which return you a list of users who are using the database.

     

    2)      If I am able to restore it without asking anybody to disconnect and they get disconnected automatically.

     

         You may kill all the users after you get the list of spids from sp_who and then put the database i  single_user mode and restore it.
