For TDP for SQL 2.2 you would specify TDPSQLC BACKUP * FULL plus whatever options you need. This will backup all databases but not tempdb, tempdb is always excluded from all TDP for SQL operations. The wild card can be partial, such as abc* and databases can be excluded from backup using exclude s

Mark, once a MS SQL transaction log sequence is started it is independent of other backups, until the sequence is ended. SQL Server keeps track of the logged transactions included in a backup. So, the first transaction log backup after a full database backup will contain transactions from before,

Jack, TDP for SQL keeps a lot of meta data, such as various names, version numbers, dates and times, sizes, etc. (TDP for SQL's meta data is separate from SQL server's meta data.) All of this meta data is contained within the TSM server database except for the names of the groups and files for a S

David, TDP for MS SQL 2.2.0 is not available for download because it is a new product, not an upgrade. It is licensed separately from version 1. You will have to contact a Tivoli sales representative to purchase version 2. However, TDP for MS SQL 1.1.2 can do full and log backups of SQL 2000 data

This is a SQL Server restriction. The code page and sort order of the restoring database must be the same as the current database. With SQL Server 7.0, this means the restoring database must match the SQL server's code page and sort order. Either the sort order of the SQL server was changed since

Re: SQL backup and restore using TDP

2000-08-29 Thread Robert L. King
I take it that you create a clone by means other than backup/restore and that you create a snapshot using EMC hardware or the like. SQL Server won't let you restore transaction logs unless you've first restored the database, or at least a database file group or file. Then you have to restore all
