Restore All Databases Script
I, personally, use sp_restorecriptgenie by Paul Brewer. Here's the link to the SCC article that has it. Under 'The Procedure'
http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Restore+database/95839/
Basically, once you build the stored procedure, just run exec sp_restorescriptgenie
and the script will go out and get all backups for every DB (even transaction logs) and give you a script to generate them. Also generates the DBCC CHECKDB commands to check the DBs after restoring.
I actually just used this script about an hour ago so I can do a test restore and verify my backups.
there is a very good script on the link below:
How to generate database restore script in SQL Server
Based on that script I have created my stored procedure below, which works very well, although it does not generate the DBCC CHECKDB:
it needs 3 parameters:
@Database sysname - the database name you want to generate the restore
@MovePathLog NVARCHAR(1008) - where to move the transaction log file to
@MovePathData NVARCHAR(1008) - where to move the data file(s) to
Here is the code:
use master
go
IF OBJECT_ID('sp_genRestoreScripts') IS NOT NULL
DROP PROCEDURE sp_genRestoreScripts
GO
create procedure sp_genRestoreScripts
@Database sysname,
@MovePathLog NVARCHAR(1008),

This is how you run the procedure for a single database:
use master
go
exec sp_genRestoreScripts
@Database ='CAAltosextracts',
@MovePathLog ='F:\logs\',
@MovePathData ='e:\DATA\'
and for multi-databases I use the sp_foreachdb stored procedure
declare @db_list NVARCHAR(MAX)
SELECT @db_list = STUFF((
SELECT ', ' + name FROM sys.databases
WHERE name NOT IN ('DBA','TABLEBACKUPS','MASTER','MSDB','MODEL','TEMPDB')
FOR XML PATH(''), TYPE).value('.[1]', 'nvarchar(max)'), 1, 2, '')
--exec sp_foreachdb @database_list = @db_list
-- ,@command='use ?; print db_name() + char(13)'
exec sp_foreachdb @database_list = @db_list
,@command='
exec sp_genRestoreScripts
@Database =[?],
@MovePathLog =''F:\logs\'',
@MovePathData =''E:\DATA\''
'
