This vbscript will generate the sql to recreate all the jobs running on a given SQL server. I wrote this because the last time we migrated a SQL server, I ended up re-creating all the jobs, steps and schedules by hand using the Enterprise Manager. It was the slowest, dullest and most error-prone part of […]

One of the challenges weve faced is changing passwords in a warm server to reflect changes made to the live server. The initial transfer of users and passwords was performed by the sp_help_revlogin script provided by Microsoft at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;246133. The difficulty with this script was once the users are in place, you cant sync changed […]

Came across a great script from Ken Kaufman on copying backups using xp_cmdshell. Thought I'd contribute a script I wrote that builds on that to restore the latest production backup to a testing or development server. In this case I routinely create all my production backups to a network share and then use that source […]
