Examples

This example creates a new database called MyNwind2_Test. MyNwind2_Test is a copy

of the existing MyNwind2 database that comprises two files: MyNwind2_data and
MyNwind2_log. Because the MyNwind2 database already exists, the files in the
backup need to be moved during the restore operation. The RESTORE FILELISTONLY
statement is used to determine the number and names of the files in the database
being restored.

USE master
GO
-- First determine the number and names of the files in the backup.
-- MyNwind_2 is the name of the backup device.
RESTORE FILELISTONLY
FROM MyNwind_2
-- Restore the files for MyNwind2_Test.
RESTORE DATABASE MyNwind2_Test
FROM MyNwind_2
WITH RECOVERY,
MOVE 'MyNwind2_data' TO 'D:\MyData\MyNwind2_Test_data.mdf',
MOVE 'MyNwind2_log' TO 'D:\MyData\MyNwind2_Test_log.ldf'
GO
