How to move the Veeam db from sql express to production sql

Post by marieelieg »

Hello everyone,

Sorry if this is a redundant question but I tried searching and I couldn't find anything. So here goes.

I installed VBR9 on a VM and used the free sql express that came with it for the Veeam db. I want to move this Veeam db to a full version of sql that is deployed in production.

Can you please post the exact steps that are needed here? or post a link to an article that contains the steps?

Thank you all in advance :D

and this

give an overview, basically detach the DB from the embedded SQL, move the files to the new server you want to use, attach the files and configure access, then either change the registry entries or use the DBConfig Utility

Take a config backup beforehand as a fallback measure
