Restore a database backup on another server without sysadmin account












0















I need to restore my own database backup on another server.



On both servers I have the same user account name with limited privileges (eg WebUser).



On the target server I can't use a sysadmin account, so how can I restore my backup and give access to limited user account WebUser?



Of course I can't use SQL Server Management Studio but only code in my app.



I've tried with an account with this server role



[serveradmin] 
[diskadmin]
[dbcreator]


I can restore the backup but can't access it nor give permissions on the database.

  • Ask your DBA to do the restore. There might be valid reason why the permissions are not given to you.
