folder, and enter a filename, such as
DatabaseNameMigrationBackup.bak.
13. Click OK to close the Backup Device Location window, and
then click OK to close the Select Backup Destination window.
NOTE: To simplify moving the database later, we
recommend creating the backup in a shared local folder.
14. Optionally, on the Options tab, select the checkbox to Verify
your database backup upon completion.
NOTE: This option increases backup time but checks the
integrity of the backup file. We chose to verify the backup.
15. Click OK to begin the SQL Server 2000 database backup.
(Backup times vary with database size and backup device
configuration.)
16. After the backup completes, in Enterprise Manager, under
Databases, right-click the database, and choose All Tasks |
Take Offline. The old database is now offline, so SQL Server
2000 will not allow any connections to it.
17. Log out of Windows on the SQL Server 2000 server.
18. Log into Windows on the SQL Server 2008 R2 server.
19. In Windows Explorer, navigate to either the shared network
location or the portable storage device that you used to store
your database backup.
20. Copy the backup file, and paste it to a local directory of your
choice. (Copy time varies with network speed and file size.)
21. Open SQL Server Management Studio by selecting Start | All
Programs | Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 November CTP |
SQL Server Management Studio.
22. Select Database Engine for Server type, and type the server
name in Server name. For Authentication, we used Windows
Authentication.
23. In the Object Explorer pane, right-click Databases, and select
Restore Database.
24. Enter the name of the database in the ―To database‖ box.
NOTE: It is critical to use the same database name as on
your SQL Server 2000 server. If the database name does
not match, applications that depend on the database name
may break.
25. Click the ―From device‖ radio button, and then click ―...‖ to
browse to the local folder where you copied the backup file.
