Thank you for your information. Its really helpful. Some days back i forgot the password of “sa” login of sql. Since then i was thinking of writing a tool that can
help me getting the password of “sa” and all the sql logins from MasterDB.
But i am not sure about where to start. I have got some software that do the same but all of them are “Paid”. So i thought of writing my own tool.
Can you give me some directions for that ??

Thanks & Regards,
Siddharth

I have two servers in SQL 2008 R2, one for production and another for replication, replication is going to be using SRDF, reading about SRDF is byte level but my question is, if device E is on SAN and this is te device that replication will use, do I need to move my master database to E?
Does SRDF works with master database?
Is it dangerous that my master database be located in a SAN device?
Thanks.

Information on site is very useful to me. I have read this article of system databases article but it will be more useful, if u give something more about How to start SQL Server when master db corrupted and How to restore it.

Thanks

First of all, I would like to thank you for all your efforts towards helping SQL server professionsals.

I have a question:

1. System stored procedures are stored in Master or MSDB database.

I can find the system stored procs in both master and msdb db’s. So i am very much confused about the answer.
