The SQL Server 2017, 2016, 2014, 2012, 2008, etc. versions of MS SQL Server can be used with the SQL Server 2017, 2016, 2014, 2012, 2008, etc.
To restore a deleted row or record in SQL Server, you can use the following methods: Use the "UNDO" feature in SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) to revert changes made in the current session. This feature allows you to undo changes made in the current session, including deleting rows.
Dealing with SQL Server database management can be a challenge, especially when it comes to deleting rows, tables, pages, or columns. This is a common issue that many administrators face, and finding a solution can be a time-consuming process. Whether it's deleting outdated data, consolidating information, or optimizing database performance, knowing the right steps to take can make a big difference in maintaining a smooth and efficient database management system.
When a database or its components are deleted without backups, SQL Server administrators can try to restore them using automated SQL Recovery tools or manual methods with SLN to recover individual rows, tables, pages, or columns.
To get your business back on track, focus on bringing in the missing data that was lost due to the outage. This can be done by retrieving any relevant information from backups, re-creating lost records, and verifying the accuracy of the recovered data.
To recover lost SQL rows efficiently, consider using an automated SQL recovery tool. This software can save time and energy by restoring SQL Server data effectively.
When searching online for a solution, be sure to choose a 100% secure software from a reputable company. Qiling, with over a decade of experience in data recovery, has recently released its SQL recovery software, equipped with professional features to help resolve SQL Server issues.
With this tool, you can easily restore deleted records, including SQL Server data, and repair corrupted databases, MDF file restore, and more, all with just a few clicks, bringing back lost SQL Server rows.
Step 1.Download and run Qiling MS SQL Recovery.
Step 2.Click the two dots (Browse button) to select the target MDF file or click "Search" to locate the desired file, and then select it from the list. Finally, click "Repair" to initiate the repair process.
Step 3. When the recovery process is finished, a window will pop up to confirm that the analysis was successful. The deleted tables and recovered items will be listed in the left pane under the name of the original tables.
Step 4. To export the recovered database, click the "Export" button in the bottom right corner of the screen, then select the desired export method, such as saving to a database or SQL script, and follow the prompts to complete the export process.
After saving the deleted records, including your lost rows, as an MDF file, you can import or save it back to the original location of your SQL Server database.
Then restart and run SQL Server again.
Another method to try is using LSN (Log Sequence Numbers) to check and restore deleted rows, providing a more complex solution.
Note: Be careful while you are following the below steps for deleted rows recovery in SQL.
Step 1. You can use the following SQL query to check the number of present rows except for the deleted ones in a SQL table:
SELECT * FROM Table_name
Step 2. Use the below query to bring log back:
USE Databasename
GO
BACKUP LOG [Databasename]
TO DISK = N'D:\Databasename\RDDTrLog.trn'
WITH NOFORMAT, NOINIT,
NAME = N'Databasename-Transaction Log Backup',
SKIP, NOREWIND, NOUNLOAD, STATS = 10
GO
Step 3. Here is the query to gather information of deleted records from SQL Server table:
USE Databasename
GO
Select [Current LSN] LSN], [Transaction ID], Operation, Context, AllocUnitName
FROM
fn_dblog(NULL, NULL)
WHERE Operation = 'LOP_DELETE_ROWS'
By doing so, get the Transaction ID of deleted records.
Step 4. To find the exact time when the records get deleted with the given Transaction ID, you would need to check the database logs or the audit trail for the specific transaction. This information is usually recorded in the database management system's logs or audit trail, which can be accessed through various means such as database management tools or through the application's logs.
USE Databasename
GO
SELECT
The current log sequence number (LSN) is associated with an operation, a specific transaction ID, a start time, a transaction name, and a transaction SID.
FROM
fn_dblog(NULL, NULL)
WHERE
[Transaction ID] = '000:000001f3'
AND
[Operation] = 'LOP_BEGIN_XACT'
Step 5. Recover deleted data including rows from the SQL Server table:
Recover Deleted D USE Databasename
GO
RESTORE DATABASE Databasename_COPY FROM
DISK = 'D:\Databasename\RDDFull.bak'
WITH
MOVE 'Databasename' TO 'D:\RecoverDB\Databasename.mdf',
MOVE 'Databasename_log' TO 'D:\RecoverDB\Databasename_log.ldf',
REPLACE, NORECOVERY;
GO
Step 6. To check if deleted records, including rows, are recovered back to a SQL Table database, you can use the following steps:
USE Databasename_Copy GO Select * from Table_name
Besides knowing the way to restore lost records or rows in SQL Server table database is not enough.
