Setting Up a Local Database from an Existing .mdf File

Abstract

The Planning Logistics Analysis Network System (PLANS) team needed a repeatable process for setting up an accessible local database for development using the .mdf database file format on developers machines. Online sources for this procedure are available, but they must be adapted due to security restrictions imposed by the Engineer Research and Development Center-Defense Research and Engineering Network (ERDC-DREN). Access to the servers database is restricted, requiring copies of the database files to be handled directly, rather than through web-based database calls. This special report provides step-by-step instructions for setting up a local development database using the .mdf database file format on computers on the ERDC-DREN network.
