Copying Database From One SQL Server to Another -


greetings.

we running microsoft sql server 2008 on 1 machine single license. need create identical development instance of database held on server, including tables, triggers, default values, data, views, keys, constraints , indexes.

as temporary solution, downloaded , installed sql server 2008 express r2 along sql server 2008 toolkit on separate machine. used dtswizard.exe , pointed @ remote host data source , local machine target.

transfer of data @ first appeared fine tables, indexes, etc. created after little more digging, realized not transferring/setting default values of fields! many of fields have "not null" constraints , we're interfacing com api (response rck) not allow manually edit queries we're stuck how have interface database/insert entries (including use of default values circumventing not null constraints.)

as second option used "generate script" option , exported tables, constraints, indexes, default values, data, etc .sql file i'm not sure how load sql file sql server because 4.9gb - of required, no circumventing size of monster.

so questions are: - there way can make complete copy of sql database server including default values? - or there way import .sql file without copying , pasting new query?

p.s: apologize if "microsoft" lingo not perfect, i'm linux guy familiar postgresql , mysql.

why not take complete backup of database , restore new server? include including default values?

here sql should make happen (edit paths , logical file names fit needs):

-- on source server run: backup database [testdb]      disk = n'c:\temp\testdb.bak'               noformat,          noinit,           name = n'sourcedb-full database backup',          skip,          norewind,          nounload,           stats = 10 go  -- on other server run restore database [destdb]      disk = n'c:\temp\testdb.bak'                file = 1,           move n'testdb' n'c:\temp\destdb_data.mdf',           move n'testdb_log' n'c:\temp\destdb_log.ldf',           nounload,  stats = 10 go

and need move backup file between servers if not accessible on network...
