SQL 2000 DBA Reference Books

[talphius]

I've been a network admin for about 6 years now and am beginning to cross-train into the realms of Database Administration. As part of this, I am trying to find the best learning materials to bring me up to speed quickly on the subject.

In your experience, what resources (online and print) have you found to be most beneficial? What books do you recommend to come up to speed on SQL 2000? I am especially interested in the D\R aspects such as Backups, Log Shipping, etc.

Any information you can provide would be appreciated!

Thanks!

You may consider going to a MS certified class in your area. One that is geared specifically for sql administration.
