But looking for taking backup/restore credentials sql serve 2012.

Hi,
I highly recommend to go from step 1 to the end in this tutorial, but if you realy want to just only to restore than you can start in Lesson 4: Perform a Restore From a Full Database Backup

  • How to restore a database backup taken from a SQL Server 2012 instance to SQL Server 2014

    I am trying to restore a database backup taken from a SQL Server 2012 instance to my new SQL Server 2014 instance.  When I add the .bak through the Mgmt studio UI, it does not seem to find a backup set in the file so I cannot proceed (does not give
    me any errors though either.  I tried restoring through TSQL command but only got a database restore terminating abnormally error with no other details.  How can I restore this database to SQL 2014?

     I couldn’t figure out how to open the sdf files in SQL server 2012
     Thank you

    I don't think it's hard if understood the question properly you can try this I do it most of the time and this might be the solution for you, sometimes minor simple click is a life saver:)
    1. 
    Open SQL Server Management Studio, or if it's running select File -> Connect Object Explorer... and click the
    connect drop down arrow
    2. 
    In the Connect to Server dialog you will see Database Enghine, Analaysis Servie on so on and you go head change Server type to
    SQL Server Compact Edition
    3. 
    From the Database file drop-down as shown below click the drop down arrow and select <
    Browse for more...>
    4. 
    And you will see C:\, D:\, G:\
    drive and so on and open, your SDF file where it is located
    I hope this has been informative for you and good luck

  • How to connect from InformixDB to SQL Server 2012 (and copy data)

    Hello guys
    I try to build a connection from an Informix (Informix2000) database to my SQL Server 2012.
    I really dont know how to do this...
    The plan is to build a job in the night in which data is beeing copied from the InformixDB to my SQL Server 2012
    The SQL server should be like a "archive server" (same data as informix DB , but the data should stay for 2 years)
    Any idea if this is possible ? (what im trying to do)
    Can i do this with ODBC Connection ?
    Thanks a  lot and Regards, Dominic

    Thanks a lot guys... but what im trying to do is not to migrate the hole Informix DB to SQL 2012, i just want to copy some data into my SQL Server (archive). in the informix DB the data is only 30days back... i want to transfer  every week
    the data and let it on the SQL Server 2 years back. (SQL Server should be like an archive system)
    Hello ,
    Then you need to create an SSIS package to migrate data from Informix to SQL Server 2008 since Informix is old I dont know which connection provider to use but you can try ADO.NET connection provider
    Can you check below link

    Hi,
    Could you help me please with my problem: what licenses (per core or Server + CAL) should I take for SQL Server 2012 Standard Edition for the following environment:

  • Backup / Restore Test on SQL server. Am I right?

    Hello Colleagues,
    We want to execute the following plan in order to test our backup&restore infrastucture. Please couls you point me if I´m leaving something back?
    SQL Server 2005 SAP nw2004s based system (I think that the below procedure is valid no matter the system is Abap standalone, JAVA standalone or ABAP+JAVA standalone)
    We want to Stop SAP production System HRP in production host.
    Detach HRP SQL server in production Host.
    Restore from the last full backup on production Host changing the database name to HRPNEW (logical name and filenames)
    Attach the new restored files to the SQL Server 2005 (I think that this point is not needed because the restore will leave the database operational if I mark the corresponding option)
    Start Sap System and check that everything is OK inside.
    Stop SAP system again
    detach HRPNEW database
    attach HRP original database
    Start SAP system and check
    FInally delete db files and log files from HRPNEW database.
    What do you think?
    Thank you very much in advance!
    Regards

    Thank you for your response.
    But, is it needed if I´m restoring in the production server (same host name) the database with another name?
    Or you meant to change the database name in anywhere?
    Thanks
    Regards!

  • How to export SSIS package to File system in SQL Server 2012

    I am accessing SSIS package by connecting to a database engine. I wanted to export the SSIS to file system. How to get it done in sql server 2012? I tried Util utility , i got package not present. Let me know what other options are available to export to
    file system?
    Mano

    Hi Mano,
    After exporting the project stored in a SSISDB catalog to an .ispac file, we can modify the extension .ispac to .zip, then, we can extract the zip file to get the .dtsx package files. Besides, please note that if there are project level connection managers
    or parameters, their definition cannot be exported to individual packages.

  • SQL Server 2012 Express error 9002 while restoring a backup from 2008

    Hi all,
    I have installed SQL Server 2012 Express on my laptop operating with win 8. Then I took the backup in my old laptop with SQL Server 2008R Express / Windows 7 and tried to restore it to the new one.
    After it restored it produced an error messaging saying that restore failed. The error code was 9002 and it says due to NOTHING. I checked the log file it is a file of 1024 kb size, not big. When I installed the SQL 2012 I disabled the autogrowth of the
    log file (exactly same setting as I had with 2008) The log is not big. I tried to further shrink, no change.
    Moreover the db is already there with full records, I can manipulate it.  Even take a back w/o problems. What is this issue? Is it resolved?
    thanks

    an error messaging saying that restore failed. The error code was 9002
    and it says due to NOTHING. I
    select *
    from sys.messages
    where message_id = 9002
    => "The transaction log for database '%ls' is full due to '%ls'. "

  • SQL Server 2012 restoring database from backup file

    Hi All,
    1. I was restoring the database from PROD box to DEV box with the deferent name.
    For Ex: Both PROD and DEV boxes are having "A" database. Now I am refreshing database"A" from PROD bot to DEV box with name "B". Now while restoring in SQL server 2012 I used GUI and took database name as "A" by default.
    by mistake I executed the request. before completing I notice that "A" database in DEV Box went to restoring mode.
    Now, in middle I stopped the query but still I am seeing database "A" is in restoring state.
    Please guide me is there any way to bring database online with current data?
