Symptoms
Consider the following scenario:
-
You use automatic seeding for the secondary replica of an AlwaysOn Availability Group in Microsoft SQL Server.
-
You back up a database [db1], you add files [f1] and [f2], and then you remove backup file [f1].
-
You change the physical name for file [f2] when you restore database [db1], and change the logical name from [f2] to [f1] (the file that was removed).
In this scenario, a conflict occurs for the secondary replica when you try to join the availability group in auto-seeding mode. Then, you receive the following error message:
DateTime spid97s Error: 911, Severity: 16, State: 1.
DateTime spid97s Database 'DatabaseName' does not exist. Make sure that the name is entered correctly.
DateTime spid97s Error: 4353, Severity: 16, State: 1.
DateTime spid97s Conflicting file relocations have been specified for file 'FileName'. Only a single WITH MOVE clause should be specified for any logical file name.
DateTime spid97s Error: 3013, Severity: 16, State: 1.
DateTime spid97s RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.
