How to open/mount a BKF file?

Question

In my SSIS package, I created a custom log provider that appends all my logs into an html file. In the logging details, i selected ONLY errors and warnings to be logged. However, i am getting the Start and End Package log entries as well. This defeats the purpose of being able to see errors only when they happen. Any suggestions?

I am running SQL 2008 R2. I read an article online that suggests to make an edit in the registry, but this seems to have only turned off logging for Start and End events in the Windows event logs, not in mine.

Solution 1

You can run NT Backup under Windows 7. Here are some directions on how to do it.

Solution 2

you have critical data contained in a NTBackup file (.BKF) and want to restore it in Windows 7.

1. Open the Control Panel. (Classic View)
2. Click on the Backup and Restore Center icon.

3. Click on the Restore Files button. NOTE: To restore a backup not shown here, click Advanced restore instead and click Advanced restore (Restore files from a backup made on another computer).

4. Dot what you want to restore, latest or older backup files, and click on Next.

5. Select the Backup files to restore and click on Next. NOTE: This will be from the backup file that you selected in step 4. If it is not here, then click Search to navigate to the backup files location. A) To Remove the Selected Backup Click on the Remove button. B) To Remove All the Backups Listed Here NOTE: Click on the Remove all button.

6. Select where you want to restore the files to and click on Start Restore. NOTE: Normally you would pick Original Location to replace the files with the backup files. Otherwise, you can save the backup files to another location to manually replace the files you want with the backups.

7. You will now see the progress window.

8. If you already have a copy or older copy of the file in that location from step 6, then you will see this window below. If not, then you will see step 9 below.

   "Just click on Copy and Replace to replace the file with the backup copy of the file"

9. When the restore is completed, Click on Finish.

Not sure what you are trying to do but see this, use "View and request hotfix downloads" at the top of the link page to request the W7 program.

1. Yes, most likely it will, that is the wrong utility for W7.

That is a really good idea. I am not really seeing a better solution. Thank you!
