We set up a test box and having been trying to move an entire instance
from our production server to this one. I have moved all my created
dbs using the RESTORE WITH MOVE. Now I am trying to move the Master,
Model, and msdb. This is where I am having trouble. On the production
box the dbs are stored on D:\mssql$instancename\data. On the test
server the data is stored in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL
Server\mssql$instancename\data. Also the server names are different.
So I finally got the Master from production to restore over the test's
copy. Now the instance will not start. I was trying to use the
following code in cmd line to connect to the instace so I could then
copy model and msdb:
sqlservr -c -f -T3608 -T4022 -sINSTANCENAME
When this is trying to connect I read it is failing and saying that the
MDF and LDF may be corrupt or not there. The problem is it is now
trying to look in D:\mssql$instancename\data instead of C:\Program
Files\Microsoft SQL Server\mssql$instancename\data. Any ideas on how I
can change this, or if I have to reinstall the entire instace, not run
into this again?
