How to Restore an Archived Filegroup on Another Server

Hello,

I have several archived filegroups that have data in them partitioned
based on the date. These filegroups have been removed from database
after archival. For example two months ago. Meantime my production
database is populating everyday.

Now I would like to restore one of my old archived filegroups. In order
to do that I would like to backup and restore the current Primary
filegroup to another server, and also restore the archived filegroup
into that server. The backup commands to backup the archived filegroup
and also backing up the primary are:

BACKUP DATABASE [DB1]
FILEGROUP = 'PRIMARY'
TO DISK = 'C:\DB1\PRIMARY .BAK'
WITH INIT , NOUNLOAD , NAME = N'PRIMARY Filegroup backup',
NOSKIP , STATS = 10, DESCRIPTION = N'PRIMARY Filegroup backup of
DB1',
NOFORMAT

BACKUP DATABASE [DB1]
FILEGROUP = 'DataGroup383'
TO DISK = 'C:\DB1\DataGro up383.BAK'
WITH INIT , NOUNLOAD , NAME = N'Filegroup backup',
NOSKIP , STATS = 10, DESCRIPTION = N'Filegroup backup of DB1',
NOFORMAT
Later I move the backup files to another server and use these commands
to do the restore on new server:

RESTORE DATABASE [DB1]
FILEGROUP = 'PRIMARY'
FROM DISK = 'C:\Archival\Ba ckups\PRIMARY.B AK'
WITH FILE = 1, NORECOVERY,
MOVE 'PRIMARY01' to 'C:\MSSQL\Data\ DB1\PRIMARY01.m df'

RESTORE DATABASE [DB1]
FILEGROUP = 'DataGroup383'
FROM DISK = 'C:\Archival\Ba ckups\DataGroup 383.BAK'
WITH FILE = 1, NORECOVERY,
MOVE 'DataFile383' to 'C:\MSSQL\Data\ DB1\DataFile383 .ndf'
At this point the database can not be used yet and it is on restore
mode then I use this command to recover it

RESTORE DATABASE [DB1] WITH RECOVERY

But I get an Error:

"Server: Msg 4318, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
File 'DataFile383' has been rolled forward to LSN 584800000040260 0001.
This log terminates at LSN 584800000038770 0001, which is too early to
apply the WITH RECOVERY option. Reissue the RESTORE LOG statement WITH
NORECOVERY.
Server: Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally"

I tried several other things as well: backing up the current log and
restore it but it didn't work.
Please help or if this is not the right way to do this backup and
restore let me know how to do that. I really appreciate.

Greetings Group Members, I am going to implement a strategy for archiving and restoring old filegroups. Part of my data has been stored in date partitioned files and filegroups. So the archive is going to backup older than six months filegroups into the tape and removes them from the production database. The restore strategy is going to work as this: user would be able to ask for restoring old filegroups. Every time there is a restore...

I've been having some issues so forgive me if this double-posts. Because I have some large but static Filegroups within a database I prefer to backup my filegroups instead of everything at once. This is SQL Server 2000. The other day I backed up a file with this command: BACKUP DATABASE Thomasville FILEGROUP = 'PRIMARY'

Hello All I am currently doing a project on MS SQL Server 2005 where I am in need of table level backup/restore. I know about FILEGROUP. But in our project using FILEGROUP is not feasible. As far as I know MS SQL Server 2005 does not support Table level restore directly. Moreover relational integrity is also matter. Is there any clever trick or 3rd party free software to do table level restore/backup? Please Help.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
