Is Enterprise Edition Is A Good Choice?
Apr 15, 2008
Hi,
I created a application in VB and backend database for this is SQL Server 2005. So far I was working on "SQL Express", as a testing one. I have almost 20 Tables and also lot of stored procedure. From the programming point of view, the database is not that much of large. The size grows only when the pictures are added to the database. Its not a client/server application(only desktop application).
If i install Enterprise Edition, will it Consumes large space and memory into the client machine. What about performance issue.
Right now i have two editions SQL Express and SQL Enterprise Edition.
Which edition you would like to suggest on the basis of information provided as above.
Thanks.
Best Regards

Hi - I have a rather unreliable host just now - but they offer .net, sqlserver and SSL for a reasonable price.Problem is, the domain is hosted on a shared server - and it keeps goingdown apparantly because of code which is less than clean, on somepeoples sites. (ie. not closing connections etc).I am considering moving to a decicated server - but at this point intime, cannot afford a full SQL Server licence for it - however, thededicated server does offer MSDE. Is it acceptable to go back to usingthis from SQL Server - for a currently low hit site - ie. around 500hits per day.Does MSDE offer stored procedures (I don't use views or triggers)? CanI just take a DTC backup/export of my current SQL Server database, andrestore it to the MSDE one?What would be the cut-off point for using MSDE?Thanks for any info - also, if anyone knows why UK companies charge somuch more dor dedicated servers, than US companies - I'd be interested.Thanks, Mark*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!

Hi,
I am using a stored procedure to take backup of my database from the Visual Basic Programming.
Before i posted one of my thread with the same thing, so i was recommended to go through with DMOSQL do deal with SQL server with Visual Basic Programming. For me, this takes some time to understand the complete concept.
Because of urgent i am using stored procedure to take backup with the following:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.BackUPBLMSDB
(
@RP nvarchar(200)
)
AS
declare @backupfilename nvarchar(200)
set @backupfilename=@RP
BACKUP DATABASE [BLMSDB] TO DISK = @backupfilename WITH NOFORMAT, NOINIT, NAME = N'BLMSDB-Full Database Backup', SKIP, NOREWIND, NOUNLOAD, STATS = 10
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Example @RP="D:ackupBackup-1 09-02-2008 11-24"
Every time i am passing a parameter with somename and dateandtime(System).
Example
Backup-1 09-02-2008 11-24 2900KB
Backup-1 09-02-2008 12-30 2900KB
Backup-1 09-02-2008 18-10 5400KB
Backup-1 09-02-2008 22-00 2900KB
Backup-1 09-02-2008 22-00 2900KB
I would like to clear my doubt, is it a good practice to take backup with different names. The above one i store four backups . If the system crashes and i created the new database with the same schema without any data present in the tables, can i restore previous backup database to the newly created database.
Moreover, The first two backups contains "2900KB", the third one is "5400KB" after the data is being modified. Look at the fourth one it is "2900KB". Why the size is being reduced to "2900KB" after taking backup eventhough i didn't delete or added data into the database.
Hope you will solve my problem.
Thanks.

Hi
-I have istalled sql server 2005 standard edition , I want to install sql server 2005 enterprise edition on the same machine.
Is it possible? I have Microsoft windows server 2003 SP2 and 1GB RAM.
I want to use partition function with the enterprise edition, will the trial version of sql server work for me?
-If I have already created a database and tables using the standard edition, will I be able to access and use the database using the installed trial version or will I have to start a fresh creating a new database?
- Is it possible to access the same database with any of the installed versions?
BTW, I am prety new to sql server and databases , I am trying to learn by myself

Dear All,We have a database which contains many tables which have millions ofrecords. When We attach the database with MS SQL Server 2005 StandardEdition Server and run some queries (having joins, filters etc.) thenthey take very long time to execute while when We execute same querieson Enterprise Edition then they run 10 times faster than on standardedition.Our database does not use any features which are present in EnterpriseEdition and not present in Standard Edition. We want to know what arethe differences between Standard Edition and Enterprise Edition forperformance. Why should we go for Enterprise Edition when StandardEdition has all the features required.We are presently using evaluation versions of SQL Server 2005 Standardand Enterprise Editions.Thanks and regards,Nishant Sainihttp://www.simplyjava.com

I am attempting to upgrade a 2005 Standard Edtion to Enterprise Edition. This is a default instance. All components are upgraded successfully except the Database Engine. I receive the following error:
SQL Server Setup has encountered the following problem: [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]The certificate cannot be dropped because one or more entities are either signed or encrypted using it.. To continue, correct the problem, and then run SQL Server Setup again.
This installation does not have encryption enabled, so I do not undersand the error or how to correct it.
After rebooting the SQL instance appears to be upgraded to Enterprise, but it cannot be upgraded to SP2.
Thanks,

Hi all--I'm researching the cleanest downgrade path from a trial edition of SQL Server 2005 Enterprise to a licensed Standard Edition copy. It looks like downgrading will entail uninstalling the old version and installing the new version, but I'd like to save the original setup as much as possible. Detaching the old databases will preserve the non-system databases; what method would work best for restoring the system databases?
Thanks!

The enterprise edition of SQL server includes some advanced BI features, for example the fuzzy lookup feature of IS. If the IS package lives on an enterprise edition of SQL server and the database the package it is targeting lives on a standard edition of SQL server can the advanced features be used? Can you run a fuzzy look against a database on a standard edition of SQL server when th IS package lives on an enterprise edition of SQL server? THANKS!

I believe it is possible to restore databases from Enterprise edition to an enviroment with Standard edition. We have been able to do it on databases without any partitioned tables. But if a database has partitioned tables it will not start up in the Standard edition after a successful restore. The error log states that the database will not start because partitions are not allowed in Standard edition (which we knew). But we were led to believe that the databases would restore and open fine, the partitions would just not be there in Standard edition. Are we possibly doing something wrong or will this just not work?
Thanks

We have an existing installation of SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition (64bit) that we are ready to go live with and would like to change the edition to Enterprise Edition (64bit). We have purchased all the appropriate licenses. We would like to avoid UN-installing the Developer Edition and RE-installing the Enterprise Edition. There must be some way to change a registry key, provide your serial number via a command line utility or re-run the setup with the license key provided and direct it to just change the edition from Developer to Enterprise and not change any of the other settings like service account, sa account, collation, etc. Any help is most appreciated.
Thank you,
Matt

Hi there
Our ISP hosts our data on SQL Server Enterprise, but I also going to host the databases on my local machine.
As it's just local would Standard edition do? If I migrate the databases over, will it work?
Thanks in advance.

Hi
When i was trying to install SQL Server 7.0 Enterprise Edition on NT 4.0/sp 6 box, got a message and that "cannot install SQL Server 7.00 EE on Windows NT Server EE" and i opted for desktop edition and installed SQL Server 7.0 and upgraded all the users and system databases. (I found a article in Technet - Q234060 about this problem and the solution is run winntup.exe before installing sql server)
Now the question is, i want to upgrade the SQL Server Desktop to Enterprise edition. How to do it? is it required to re-install SQL Server ? or any other methods available.
Thanks in advance
Jaya.

I have SQL 7 Enterprise and NT 4.0 Enterprise running on a server with 4 Gig of RAM. Is there anything special I have to do for SQL to access all the memory? My NT administrators tell me that it will only access up to 3 Gig if I add a /3G switch to the end of the boot.ini file. Any suggestions?

Does anybody know how to recognize from an NT box whether it's an Enterprise Edition or Standalone Edition. This is required to install SQL Enterprise Edition on NT 4.0 box.
If it's a Standalone version, do we have to reinstall NT 4.0 Enterprise Edition or any patch/fix available to upgrade a Standalone NT to Enterprise version.
TIA

I have an existing database running on NT Enteprise Edition and SQL Server Standard Edition.
I am attempting to install the SQL Enterprise Edition and am not having any luck.
The error I am getting is that SQL 7 is already installed. My question is do I
have to uninstall the SQL Standard edition and reinstall the SQL Enterprise Edition
or is there a way that I am missing that will save me some time and effort. I am not finding anything in BOL
and the readme files don't address the change from 7 standard to 7 enterprise only from 6.5 to 7.0.
TIA

What's the best/easiest method to upgrade from Standard Edition to Enterprise Edition and still keep the databases in tact?
My thoughts were to:
1)Backup databases
2)Detach User Databases
3)Uninstall Standard
4)Install Enterprise
5)Restore Master and msdb
6)Reattach the User Databases
Comments?
