Hi,Create a linked server on your DEV server with sa access and run your script to refresh the DEV database by Production way. This is the simplest way SQL Guru 4 U |

"I have a full backup file with size of 46 GB.Database size is 40GB"Seems a bit unlikely (DB smaller than backup file)?Note that, whatever the size of the Backup file, RESTORE will create the Database files to the size of the original database files - so if the original database had lots of free space so will the new database, after restore (potentially it could even be bigger than your 180GB disk). I expect that isn't the case, but perhaps worth checking on the original machine? |

No that's one of the hardest ways to move a database to another server. The easiest way is backup/restore or detach/attach. Next easiest is the GUI's copy wizard. Linked server is probably the hardest way actually.Tara KizerMicrosoft MVP for Windows Server System - SQL Serverhttp://weblogs.sqlteam.com/tarad/Subscribe to my blog |

if it's disk space issue, error will say "Insufficient Disk Space" since it says "resources" I think it's memory issue.can try copying bak file to local machine and restore locally |

Yes, I agree, but sometime the errors cascade and you wind up with a seemingly unrelated message. The Database may be WAY larger than the backup file itself (which might put even more pressure on RAM perhaps?) |
