Maint Plans Problems After Moving System Databases

  • Hi Folks

    i am need of some assistance after i moved my system databases as well as the logs as well as mssqlsystemresource and distmdl databases and logs

    i thought everything looked fine as i checked file locations, registry and physical locations

    until i tried my Maint Plans and got this nasty error

    Failed to retrieve data for this request. (Microsoft.SqlServer.SmoEnum)

    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

    An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch.

    (Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo)

    Invalid column name 'from_msx'.

    Invalid column name 'has_targets'. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 207)

    Has anyone received this type of error before or am I the only one that blew the move ?

    Any assistance would reeeeeeeeeeeelly be appreciated.

    Thanks

    upgrade to SP3 might also be an option.

    be sure all the master and resource database files are in the same directory.

  • Hi george sibbald-364359

    Everything i found said to upgrade tp SP2 but I was already on SP3

    So as a last resort i re-applied SP3 and it fixed the Maint Plans for some reason

    They all showed up and no errors

    I don't how but it worked.

    Thanks

    Sounds like it reapplied changes after you done the move.
