 User databases
SQL Server Files
 Binaries
 Datafiles (.mdf, .ndf)
 Transaction log files (.ldf)
 Backup files and snapshot files
 File groups
SQL Server 2005 New Feature: Data Partitioning Using
File Groups

SQL Server Transaction Log
When the end of the logical log reaches the end of the physical log file,
the new log records wrap around to the start of the physical log file.
SQL Server Recovery Model
Architectures
 Three Models:
– Simple: Truncate occurs on checkpoint (default in SQL2000)
 No “roll-forward” capability
 Data loss acceptable
– Bulk Logged: All operations are logged except bulk operations (BCP,
BULK, etc) (DSS environments)
 Roll forward capability
 Some data loss acceptable
– Full: All ops are logged (Default for SQL Server 2005)
 Full roll forward/back
 Least amount of data loss possible
SQL Server Recovery Model
Architectures
Recovery
Model
Description
Work Loss Exposure
Recover to point
in time?
Simple
No log
backups
Changes since the most
recent backup are
unprotected
Can recover only
to the end of a
backup
Full
Requires log
backups
Normally none
Can recover to a
specific point in
time
Bulk
logged
Requires log
backups
If the log is damaged or
bulk-logged operations
occurred since the most
recent log backup,
changes since the last
backup must be redone
Point in time is not
supported
SQL Server 2005 New Feature: DB Snapshots – Copy
on write
Key Points from SQL Books Online (BOL)
Intended for reporting to a point in time at mirror
site or locally
Performance is reduced due to increased I/O on
the source database resulting from a copy-onwrite operation to the snapshot every time a
page is updated.
Snapshots of the model, master, and temp
databases are prohibited.
Specifications of the database snapshot files
cannot be changed.
Files cannot be dropped from a snapshot.
Can’t backup or restore snapshots.
Can’t attach or detach snapshots.
Can’t clone a snapshot.
Microsoft Cluster Server
 Implementation Considerations
 Hardware
 Software
 Network
Protocols
 FCP
 iSCSI
 SCSI/NFS?
 SMB
SQL Server 2005 New Feature: DB Mirroring

Database Failover
–
–



Very fast failover – less than 3
seconds
Automatic or manual failover
Works with dissimilar hardware and
storage
Sync and async modes supported
