You can use DBCC CHECKINDENT to reseed identity value.

DBCC CHECKIDENT ('Production.Product' , RESEED, 1001)

You can use start-up parameter -S <ServerName> to connect to a server.

In the output of RESTORE HEADERONLY command

hmm.. never noticed that... 🙂

You can use RESTORE HEADERONLY to check if the backup contains CHECKSUM:

RESTORE HEADERONLY

FROM DISK = N'C:\Database\Backup\WithChecksum.bak'

look for column "HasBackupChecksums".

Try this:

DECLARE @sqlCommand VARCHAR(2000)

declare @db_type as varchar(10)

set @db_type = '%_lts%'

SET @sqlCommand =

'

USE [?]

PRINT ''?''

IF ''?'' like ''' + @db_type

+

'''

BEGIN

DECLARE @sql VARCHAR(1000)

SELECT @sql = ''DROP SCHEMA ''...

EXEC master..sp_MSForeachdb '

declare @db_type as varchar(10)

set @db_type = ''%_lts%''

USE [?]

IF ''?'' like '@db_type'

BEGIN

declare @sql as varchar(1000)

select @sql = ''drop schema '' + name from sys.schemas

where name...

select 'scheme' = a.name,

'function' = b.name

from sys.indexes i

inner join sys.partition_schemes a on a.data_space_id = i.data_space_id

inner join sys.partition_functions b on a.function_id = b.function_id

where i.object_id = object_id('dbo.Table_Orders')

Adhoc queries need to be exactly same for reuse. i.e. case-sensitivity, white spaces, etc...

Generally, When a statement is used inside a stored procedure, it's not going to change and it...

Yes SP3 released, and I posted it on my blog to...... :blink:

SP1 is the latest service pack for SQL Server 2008 R2.

SP2 is released for SQL Server 2008 (not R2).

These type of questions are easier to answer as Enterprise edition (and his dad) has all the features!

I seriously need to pay attention to "can" and can't"....... :crazy:

it could be a PATH issue..

try running 'sftp2' using xp_cmdshell.

make sure location of sftp2 is in PATH when the batch file is executing..
