  • RE: Network Backup

    Check that the SQL Server service log-on account is a domain user and not the Local System account.

  • RE: Compressing (zipping) SQL Server backup files .bak

    Markus, the point I raised on CPU usage was in comparing between native backups and 3rd party SQL Server backup tools.  The native backup imposes almost no extra load on...

  • RE: Compressing (zipping) SQL Server backup files .bak

    See here for a discussion on compression using standard compression tools (WinZip, WinRar etc) vs online backup/restore compression/decompression tools like MiniSQLBackup.

    If you are comparing between the two, then online...

  • RE: Restore DB Snapshot in specified point in time

    In SQL Server Books Online, look for point-in-time in the index.

  • RE: Bug in sp_ShipLog in SLS ?

    Simple log shipping?  You must mean this.

  • RE: What does the Backup Contains?

    >>  I realise that people are probably sick of hearing this type of thing by now ...

    Not me.  Thanks for the reminder.

  • RE: Updates during a Database backups

    Well, for sure the backup will contain the new rows if the trxs have been committed by the time the backup ends.

  • RE: Restore Differential Backup

    Restore the full database backup using the NORECOVERY or STANDBY options if you want to further apply differential or log restores e.g.

    RESTORE DATABASE leon FROM .... WITH NORECOVERY

  • RE: copying .mdf and .ldf files

    The problem the OPs encountered is the failure to attach databases which were not originally detached.  I wouldn't know the internals of the differences between a shutdown and a detach.

    From...

  • RE: Restore of transaction logs

    RESTORE LOG MyDatabase FROM DISK = 'Mytranslog.trn' WITH NORECOVERY

  • RE: copying .mdf and .ldf files

    If you take a look at the problem that Jasper Smith solved in the post I mentioned, you would see that the user failed to even attach using sp_attach_single_file_db.  Usually,...

  • RE: copying .mdf and .ldf files

    Lukas, that was a very strange way to prove your point, as you could just as easily have ran sp_attach_db 'pubs', 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\DATA\pubs1.mdf', 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\DATA\pubs1_log.ldf'

    Great for...

  • RE: copying .mdf and .ldf files

    PowerDVD301_2_Data.MDF is just the name of the data file that needs to be 'attached' in the example.  Replace it with the name of your mdf file.
