I have a database backup from a database, say
SourceData which needs to be restored on another database, same schema, but different name (
SourceData_1) using T-SQL. I don't know why I gets the following error, despite specifying
REPLACE option. For example I used the links below:
Based on the posts I found on the internet, first I got the logical names of the backup file using script below:
RESTORE FILELISTONLY FROM DISK = 'C:\Backups\SourceData_20121227.BAK'
Then used the logical names in the following script:
RESTORE DATABASE SourceData_1 FROM DISK = 'C:\DEV\SourceData_20121227.BAK' WITH MOVE 'SourceDate' TO 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10_50.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\SourceData_1.mdf', MOVE 'SourceDate_log' TO 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10_50.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\SourceData_1_log.ldf', REPLACE GO
Below is the error I'm getting:
MODIFY FILE encountered operating system error 112 (failed to retrieve text for this error. Reason: 15105) while attempting to expand the physical file 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10_50.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\SourceData_1_log.ldf'.
RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.
I checked the disk space and can confirm it is fine. I assume the target database should exist before running the restore. Is that right?
Any suggestion how to fix this issue?
