Database Question

Recommended Posts

Hello. You can do a back up and use it to do a restore from a certain database. It will work on SQL 2005+

 

* Back Up

On SQL Server Management Studio, right click on database to do process and navigate to Tasks, sub-option Back Up.

 

1. Database selected to do a backup

2. Backup name

3. Destination, to save backup

 

* Restore

On SQL Server Management Studio, right click on database to do process and navigate to Tasks, sub-option Restore, sub-option database.

 

1. Database selected to restore

2. Restore a database from a avaiable database arealdy attached on instance

3. Restore a database from a back up (SELECT IT) and navigate to back up destination, then click ok.

 

PS: It will copy existing data from a attached database in your intance as a back up and can be used to copy data to a new attached database in instance.

Yes. But if you use a old database and apply in a new one with others tables, example a v.1x to a v.2x, maybe it will give a error when login. You should try this out :P..

Also you can call me using @MyName, don't quote too long posts, respect our admin xD.
