Hi Noah, 1. take a full backup of the original db 2. install the new db, choose "Create instance for recovery " 3. the new database is now in ADMIN state 4. after that, you can recover the old database in the new database
Hope this helps Greetings Ulrich Lickert ____________________________________________________ Ulrich Lickert, Universitaetsklinikum Freiburg Klinikrechenzentrum, Agnesenstr. 6-8, D-79106 Freiburg Tel +49-761-270-2265 Fax +49-761-270-2066 E-Mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] WWW: http://www.uniklinik-freiburg.de/ Noah J SILVA <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> schrieb am 02.06.2005 20:43:16: > Hi, > > I want to know the best way to duplicate a database in SAPDB 7.4. > > I made a new database, took a full backup of the original db, and tried to > restore it to the new database (on the same server). > > The restore fails with error -2008 "Message not available". > > Thank you, > Noah Silva > Arkema IS&T - Sr. Programmer Analyst > (215) 419 - 7916 > > > -- > MaxDB Discussion Mailing List > For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/maxdb > To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/maxdb?unsub=ulrich. > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > -- MaxDB Discussion Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/maxdb To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
