Currently my UK hosted site is down, and has been for many hours. Not happy as you can imagine.

I have a similar site in Australia (i.e. shared machine) and want to copy some UK views to it so that UK users can view at least some of their data next time the server is down time.

I imagine it's a case of copying some views via something in Transact-SQL. (i.e. I can't use Server Agent)

Any ideas on where to start?

Thanks
Mark

So you'll need to script your database objects in order to copy them. Right click on the database inside Enterprise Manager, then all tasks, generate SQL script. Select the items that you want scripted. Then copy this script to your other server and run it inside Query Analyzer. If you want to move data, you can do this via linked servers with the four part naming convention of the remote object.

Sounds too complicated and not specific enough for my level of skill and experience. I'll have to find a tutorial.

Thanks anyway.
