Steps of Moving MSDB & Model SQL Server system Database to new locaation:- 1) Check current location of MSDB & Model Databases by executing below query SELECT name, physical_name AS CurrentLocation, state_desc FROM sys.master_files WHERE database_id in (DB_ID(‘MODEL’),DB_ID(‘MSDB’)); You can also use “Execc SP_HelpDB ‘ DBNAME ’ for these details. 2) Execute Alter Database command with mofigy file option to set file loccation for dataabase USE MASTER; GO ALTER DATABASE MSDB MODIFY FILE (NAME = MSDBDATA, FILENAME=’E:SQL2K5_1Modelmodel.mdf’); GO ALTER DATABASE MSDB MODIFY FILE (NAME = MSDBLOG, FILENAME=’E:SQL2K5_1Modelmodellog.ldf’); GO USE MASTER; GO ALTER DATABASE MODEL MODIFY FILE (NAME = MODELDEV, FILENAME=’E:SQL2K5_1ModelMSDBDATA.mdf’); GO ALTER DATABASE MODEL MODIFY FILE (NAME = MODELLOG, FILENAME=’E:SQL2K5_1ModelMSDBLOG.ldf’); GO OUTPUT :- The file "MSDBDATA" has been modified in the system catalog. The new path will be used the next time the database is started. The file "MSDBLOG" has been modified in the system catalog. The new path will be used the next time the database is started. The file "MODELDEV" has been modified in the system catalog. The new path will be used the next time the database is started. The file "MODELLOG" has been modified in the system catalog. The new path will be used the next time the database is started. 3) Stop SQL Services 4) Manually Move MSDB & Model Databases files to new location 5) Start SQL Services 6) Check MSDB & Model Databases file location after movement Reference : Rohit Garg ( http://mssqlfun.com/ ) You can find and follow MSSQLFUN :- http://www.facebook.com/mssqlfun http://mssqlfun.com/feed https://twitter.com/Rgarg86 Other Linked Profiles :- http://www.sqlservercentral.com/blogs/mssqlfun/ http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Profile/rohitgarg http://www.toadworld.com/members/rohit-garg/blogs/default.aspx http://beyondrelational.com/members/RohitGarg/default.aspx
