Hello all,
I have the following requirement (SQL 2000, SP2)
1. Need to restore production database(A) to another database (B) on
another server (No direct connection)
2. In the restored back-up(B) SP codes should not be visible (even to
sa) or all SP's can be deleted .
3. This needs to be carried out daily
4. New tables may be added frequently to A
5. This job should be scheduled
6. I can overwrite the entire database (B)
7. I can not encrypt SP in the original database (A)
I thought of Snap-shot replication first. But when new tables are
added , I need to add new tables manually to publication .
Can some one suggest most reliable and implementable method ?
Thanks

Hmm, a normal Backup/Restore won't do this (since it'll restore the stored
procs.)
You're probably better off writing a DTS package.
3. This needs to be carried out daily
4. New tables may be added frequently to A
That might be difficult to handle with a DTS package automatically, but if
you make sure you add them manually you're all set.
Another option would be to have a SECOND DB and put the stored procs in
there and then just qualify all stored procs by prepending the name of the
second DB.
So, myProc_foo in the first database would be moved to the 2nd one and now
called SecondDB..myPro c_foo.
A little more complicated, but doable. 5. This job should be scheduled
6. I can overwrite the entire database (B)

Aargh! Never hard-code DB-names! You get all sorts of trouble if you
need to set up a test environment on the same server.
However, a second DB was my thought to. First backup original DB. Restore
locally into a second database. Drop all stored procedures. Backup the
second database. Ship and restore on the second server.
If the disk space and time is available, this is probably the simplest
way.

I have an application in which I am running a TSQL command of BACKUP DATABASE and RESTORE DATABASE for the backup and restore commands for my application. For testing purposes, i did the following:
1) Ran a BACKUP DATABASE command to a file named C:\TEST.BAK.
2) Deleted the database completely.
3) Ran a RESTORE DATABASE on the same file (note, I did NOT recreate the database)
Now I have the database back with all my data....

Hi,
I have been trying to set up an automated restore process from prod to
backup server. First, I schedule the full database backup nightly,
transfer the backup file and restore it to the database on the backup
server. Meanwhile, I leave the database ready to accept transaction
log from the transaction log backup at noon daily.
And I had used different restore options to test out the transaction
that was being applied. And I couldn't...

hi.
i need to restore an old database. The db was backed up using a DLT drive,
using 2 volumes. The content for the tapes was copied to file onto Solaris
machine using rsh and dd (for backup purposes). Now, the drive is defective
and can't read the tapes anymore.
Server is AIX 4.3.2 and database is IBM DB2 Server (DB2 for AIX Version

Hi There, We have an issue on our db2 restores. We do database dumps
every night, and restore them to development servers every morning.
This works fine with no errors. However if we backup those images to
tape using Veritas netbackup, and then restore those images and try to
restore them to the database, we get "The backup image is corrupt". If
we run db2ckbkp against that image we get "Unable to decompress image
from different platform"....

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,...
