database-backups

We have a SQL Server 2008 R2 database that backs up transaction logs every now and then. Today there was a big error in the database caused at around 12am... I have transaction logs up to 8am and then 12am - 16pm - etc. My question is: can I sort of reverse-merge those transaction logs into database, so that I return to the database state at 8am? Or is my best chance to recover an older full backup and restore all transaction logs up to 8am? The first option is preferable since full backup has been performed a bit of a while ago and I am afraid to f*ck things up restoring from there and

The problem is this: t0: Insert is made into my database t1: Delete is executed t2: Full backup is made t3: Transaction log backup is made How can i recover the deleted record after t3 (which is now)? I want the database in a state between t0 and t1. The log level was Full. Edit: I have already run DBCC LOG(DB-Name, 3), but the log seems to be truncated. There are only 10 items although there must be thousands. To replay log you always start from a full log, apply the differentials and then the log backups. The time line is always forward from the full backup, never backwards. So to get to the

We had an ugly problem, by mistake, a balancer redirect some requests to a test instance with pretty similar data than production, now I know that there are data recorded in the test Postgres that belongs to production Is there a way to list all the tables with data changes in the last 24 hours in Postgres? Postgres version is 9.3 and I have around 250 tables. First consider my comment. Postgres up to and including 9.4 does not by itself record timestamps when rows were inserted or updated. There are some system columns in the row headers that can help in the forensic work. The physical order

I want to dump a tables backup on another server and I am using ssh for doing it. when I run the below command, it gives an error but dump file is copied to destination. mysqldump -u username -ppassword dbname tablename | ssh -t -t servers_username@domain_name 'cat > /tmp/bckp.sql'; tcgetattr: Invalid argument If I press CTRL + c then it appends error message with Killed by signal 2. Why is this error? I've seen this error when forcing pseudo-terminal allocation using ssh -t -t or ssh -tt . The tcgetattr function is used to look up the attributes of the pseudoterminal represented by a file
