Few days ago I received a request to restore a dozen of tables because someone have deleted more data than it was supposed. I immediately thought about dbatools for the job!
NOTE: I also thought about SSMS “Import/Export Data”. And this is ok when someone says “it’s to run just once, just now”. When you are in the IT for a while you know that is not only once :-). And what if I need to re-run?
Probably you had the need to script out some objects from a SQL Server instance/database and this is quite easy. You just need to right click on the object (well…not on every single one, try it with an Availability Group :-), no script option available) select “Script XXXX as” and you have it.
But have you realized that this option doesn’t bring all the stuff? Let’s say you are scripting a table and you have a Non-Clustered index or a trigger…using this option some of the objects under the table will not be scripted out.
On 29th September we will have SQL Saturday Porto and I’m proud to announce that I will be speaking!
I will be speaking about dbachecks PowerShell module - dbachecks - Checking SQL Server environments with PowerShell .
The event will be held at ISEP, Rua Dr. António Bernardino de Almeida, 431, 4249-015 Porto, Portugal and you can see the full schedule here .
Register , it’s free!
Hope to see you in Porto!
I’m working on a project where I need to convert Firebird SQL code into T-SQL code. No schema, just the modules. There are more than 1000 objects between stored procedures, views, triggers, user-defined data types, etc.
First - the pain… While checking the Firebird reference manuals I saw a lot of different concepts (Selectable Stored Procedures - Yes you can do SELECT FROM StoredProcedure) and different functions names with different syntax compared to T-SQL.
