Hi
Restoring Master Database is not a frequently done step. So
I can throw some light on this and you would understand
more based your knowledge in SQL Server.
I shall give a bried intro on this.
First, there is a change in restoring Master DB in SQL
Server 2000. When there is a need to restore Master DB, you
need to start the SQL Server from command prompt using the -
c -m startup flags and restore from a working copy of
Master database.
If the situation needs tou to repair the master database,
then you need to use rebuildm.exe under the tools directory
and rebuild a Master database first and then restart the
SQL Instance..
In SQL Server 2005 also the same steps of restoring can be
followed but in order to repair, you cannot rebuild the
master DB, you need to reinstall the SQL from the command
prompt using certain key words
as "/wait" "/qn" "REINSTALL" "REBUILDDATABASE" etc.
One final word of caution, when migrating from different
Server Names and Different Sever Editions, I dont think the
Master database backup of another Server can be used to
restore the master DB on the current Server. This is
because, the ServerProperties such as Edition Name, Server
Name and other details are all stored in Master DB and SQL
will fail to start if they do not match.
Thanks,
