MSDE (SQL) Backup

Not sure if this really if the right forum but i have a question about MSDE.
When backing it up do you generally need a database agent for the backup
software?
more specifically, if you are backing up a server, with MSDE databases,
using Tivoli Storage Managers do you need the Databases module? (the databas
e
module specifically mentions only SQL)Hi
If you want to schedule your backup database , so yes you need SQL Server
Agent

the native BACKUP command or, if you can afford to take the database
offline during backup, you can just backup the database files from the
filesystem.
The advantage of using the Tivoli Data Protection module is that it
allows integration with the Tivoli storage management software.
I really don't know whether Tivoli supports MSDE, I've only used it
with SQL Server Enterprise, you'll have to check with IBM or your
vendor.

MSDE & SQL Server Agent

Can anyone tell me if the SQL Server Agent is included with MSDE? I realize
that Query Analyzer and Enterprise Manager are not included. I intend to use
MSDE for a project and would like to create jobs that will get scheduled by
SQL Server Agent.
Thanks.
Yes, Agent is included.

msdb error

When I try to open the Tuning Advisor or when I try to view the property
of the system databases or when I try to start the Server Agent I receive
the following error:
Database 'msdb' cannot be opened due to inaccessible files or insufficient
memory or disk space. See the SQL Server errorlog for details. (Microsoft
SQL Server, Error: 945)
Note: I can see the msdb database listed under the System Databases node
but without the plus [+] sign.
How can I rebuild the msdb database (I don't have a backup of course)?
Thanks in advance,
AlessandroIs the disk available? Disk full? Is there any additional information on the
SQL Server error log file (as recommended by the error message)?

msdb database marked as "suspect"

In my SQL server installation the msdb database has been marked "suspect"
and also the SQL agent cannot be started. Also I can not define any backups
in database management plans (there was on but now it is not working).
The rest database seems to work fine for more than 2 weeks now.
Any ideas?

Find out what is wrong with your msdb database. The SQL Server Agent uses
the msdb database to store jobs, maintenance plans, replication information
as well as alerts and operators.
Have you tried to restore the msdb from a valid backup?

msdb corrupted in sql 2005 sp2, how to start with a new one?

Hi,
I get many errors about SSIS and SQL Agent.
msdb should be corrupted.
is there some way to start with a brand new msdb?
I'm going to
-install a new sql 2005 instance
-upgrade it with sp2
-copy the new msdb from the second instance to the first instance
is that correct?
ThanksI dont think reinstallation is necessary. Totally new msdb database can be
created by executing the script located at your install directory under path
Driveletter\Program files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\Install
File name is instmsdb.sql.
Lets see what experts recommend......

That is only the repository, not the whole msdb.
instmsdb.sql will build msdb. But search KB and the net on instruction on how to use it first.
