Restore with Move placed files in original location

aneuaneu Posts: 1 Bronze 1
We are trying to restore a large database with multiple partition files. We need all of the data files to be restored to a new drive. We executed the below restore script. All of the files restored back to the their original drive location. It appears that the move commands were ignored. I do not see any thing in the logs to show that the move commands were executed.

Sql Command:

DECLARE @exitcode int
DECLARE @sqlerrorcode int
EXECUTE master..sqlbackup '-SQL "RESTORE DATABASE [CloudExpense]
FROM Disk = ''\\XXXXXX\shared\GroupData\SqlBackup1Yr\MSSQLBackup\XXXX-SQL-GSRLZ\FULL_GSRLZ_CloudExpense_20210624_005037.sqb''
SOURCE = ''CloudExpense'' LATEST_FULL with recovery , DISCONNECT_EXISTING, REPLACE"

  • Hi, there is a syntax error in your RESTORE command that the SQL Backup parser did not detect.  Look for the first REPLACE keyword.  There is a double quote after REPLACE that should have been a comma (,) instead of a double quote (").  Replace that double quote with a comma i.e. from

    EXECUTE master..sqlbackup '-SQL "RESTORE ... with recovery , DISCONNECT_EXISTING, REPLACE" MOVE ..

    to

    EXECUTE master..sqlbackup '-SQL "RESTORE ... with recovery , DISCONNECT_EXISTING, REPLACE, MOVE 

    You also have a second REPLACE keyword at after all the MOVE keywords, which you can remove.
