Clone Database

  • In Sql Server 2000 which is the best method to clone a Database

  • If you need to have the clone db continuosly with the last changes, you should choose between log shipping and replication.

      Wich one is better will depend of how much latency you can support.

     

     

  • For a one time shot I use backup restore. Or for something like refreshing QA.

  • To do this you can use a 'Copy Databases Wizard' on Enterprise Manager!

  • I found the best approach is to detach the original database files and copy them to the new location and then reattaching both sets of files again.
