Need To Know The Number Of Microsoft SQL Server Licenses Required
Jul 23, 2006
hi all,
our company is using SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition as a backend for inventory and sales data storage.
The top management of our company has decided to web enable all the data for sales and inventory so that any authorized user can have access to the data from anywhere in the world.
now my question is that how many SQL Server licenses will we require if we are going to use it for the web?
I would like to know does it exist a relation between number of licenses (per server) entered when installing SQL Server and the maximum of connections obtained by @@MAX_CONNECTIONS ? how can i get the information about the number of licenses after the installation ? Thanks.
I was told that there is no relationship between max_connections and number of licences. So how can i know when the number of user connections exceeds the number of licenses per server (with the error 18458 - the maximum simultaneous user count of %d licenses for this server has been exceeded)? Because I did some tests by openning a number of connections greater than my number of licenses and i didn't get any error.
I have got a licensed copy of MS SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition. I am wondering how I can go about telling how many Processore Liscenses or Client Licenses I have with it. I have just the disk set and product key, no box. Any clues?
I have developed a database in MS SQL Server 2005 Express, to which I would require only bulkadmin server role from an external java application, because I only need to update rows, insert values or use select queries in the database.
The problem is that, using either the Microsoft JDBC Driver 1.1 or the Java JDBC ODBC Driver and the Windows XP Data Base (ODBC) configurations, I need a user with sysadmin server role inside Sql Server, otherwise JDBC won't connect to the database using the selected user. Even if I leave the sql login with setupadmin or any server role lower than sysadmin, the connection is refused.
Is there no way to connect using JDBC to MS Sql Server 2005 other than granting the connected user sysadmin rights? My code looks as follows:
Class.forName(driver); conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url,user,password); if (conn != null) System.out.println("SQL Server Connection established ...");
I have heard that Java JDBC connections to Microsoft require high-level access.
Any informed answer is more than welcome. Thanks for reading my post!

I have developed a system which has SQL server as a backend... Reading Microsofts Licensing required i m a bit puzzled if a CAL license is required for each user that is created on my system. i.e. If my system has 5 users, do i need 5 CAL licences.. however, in order to present the required data to these users i log to SQL server with the same single account.
I need to install some SQL Licenses but the Control Panel applet is non-functional (It states that I have an NFR version of NT). Is there another way to activate licenses?
My company uses a quad processor server connected to a SAN to load and summarize detail sales information from 2000 stores on a nightly basis. We poll and load around 5,000,000 rows of data each night. THis information is summarized up to various levels, then replicated to one or more secondary datamart servers for end user access via web reporting, BI tools like Proclarity/Analysis Services etc...
The initial data polling server is only touched by the development staff supporting the process (1-5 programmers) and is licensed for SQL server Enterprise using a CAL model. Each datamart server is licensed with MS SQL server processor licenses.
The question: We were told that the quad processor polling machine, which has no end user access allowed, must be licensed with processor licenses since it touchs the data ultimately consumed by end users. This makes no sense to me.
The Microsoft white papers discussing multi_tier environments don't seem to address this type of issue. They focus on applications that ultimately pass thru a data request to the SQL server machine. In this situation, user requests are handled by the datamart servers, which are licensed with processor SQL licenses.
Hello everybodyI've got a small system (~20 client machines) connected to one SQL Server2000. Two of these machines refuse to connect to the database. As I don'tknow how the license system is supposed to work, I haven't investigatedtoo much yet.My question is therefore:Will SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition refuse to accept any newconnections when all licenses are used?Is such case, what tool do I use to add more licenses?thanks in advance--Johnny Ljunggren
Hello,This is hopefully just a quick question. I'm looking to re-jig our in-house development infrastructure and part of that will be some sort of SQL Server product, and I'm hoping it will be the Developer edition.My question is, how many copies of the Developer edition would I need to purchase, if I have one Windows 2003 server (which will server the databases) and two client machines which will use it.My initial thought is 2 copies, one for each user (as the license states). But what about the server? Do I just install one of the two copies onto the server and the license covers the two client connections?This might seem a silly question with an obvious answer to you guys. However, am I right? I just need to get this clear in my head.Thanks in advance..

I have a query that executes just fine except that it won't recognize varchar(255) ( or any other value within the () ) and if I leave it off like this: varchar, then it executes but it leaves that value as 1 and that is just not very useful for my purposes. This also happens with anything else that requires () to add length such as char(), or nvarchar(), etc... Any ideas?
"Failed to copy objects from Microsoft SQL Server to Microsoft SQL Server "
I keep getting this when trying to copy stored procs from one db to another on the same server. I am using the DTS wizard. I have been able to copy the tables but I need the sp's too, and there are too many to copy one at a time.
In VS 2005, when we choose database connection, we can choose one of the above. My question is in what situations should we choose MS SQL Server Database File (SqlClient), and when should we choose Microsoft SQL Server?
I want to deploy a standalone desktop application with a backend database. Which backend database should I should and which of the above connection should I choose?
On localhost this application works fine but when I put on remote server. I am getting following errors. For both localhost and server, I am using same remote sql 2000. I will appreciate any help.
Thanks,

hello! i am getting the following error in the windows NT event viewer daily atleast twice or thrice... "The product Microsoft SQL Server 7.0 is out of licenses. Use License Manager from the Administrative Tools folder for more information on which users are out of compliance and how many licenses should be purchased. "
we have recently got an open license agreement also for sql server from microsoft.till now we were using a temporary license.how to apply the details in the certificate so that i don't get the error?
I'm not asking a lot. I just want to know if I can connect from anExchange server to a SQl server without having to use Access linkedtables. Surely MS must have had a look at this but I can't findanything out there.Help appreciated.Ginters
Can you change your license setup if it was initially done by seat andyou want to change it to by processor? The server is already up andrunning in a production environment. If so how?
As I understand it, if I have a 4 CPU box and I buy 4 processor licenses for SQL Server 2005 Standard, I can run 16 instances of SQL Server on that box.
Now given a cluster set up for active/passive I understand that if I license the same way I can have 16 instances on one of the nodes of the cluster. In the event of a failure, the instances can fail over to the "passive" node and the licenses move with them.
So heres the question. Given my two node cluster, each node has 4 CPUs, if I have some of the resources on node 1, and others on node 2, so instances are running on node 1 and node 2, am I on the hook for 8 processor licenses?
I've just installed Workgroup Edition for the first time. I have copies on each of two servers, each ordered with five CALs.
My problem is that I don't know how to assign the licenses. I can't find anything in the documentation about it, nothing in the tools menus, and no reference to SQL Server in the Licensing application. The latter really looks like the right place, so if I had to guess, I'd think I've installed something incorrectly. Shouldn't SQL Server appear there as a product?
Of course, I'd also think this would be documented somewhere, but then it's probably one of those things that any idiot would know, so there's no need to explain it.
Once I get past that problem, I'll be setting up eight workstations. I understand from Microsoft Sales that since I've purchased a total of ten CALs, then all eight workstations will be able to access either server. Do I have to do anything special to make that work? Currently, there's no domain. The servers are just members of a workgroup.
Hi all, I hope I am on a suitable thread. Sorry if I'm not. I just need to know if I need a license in order to write a commercial application using Visual Studio 2005. And, if so, is this license necessary to me as a developer or to my customer that will purchase the application at the end? And something more. ASP.NET runs on IIS, which is shipped with Windows Server, correct? So, once my customer purchases Windows, he doesn't anything more in order to run a ASP.NET application (which will finally access the SQL Server DBMS). Is this correct?
We are looking for a solution for a client that we will make software for. We are a ISV. After completion of the software, our client then wants to sell this software to their partners, people in that business, etc. We do not want to add any additional cost, by means of them(client(s)) purchasing a server, server software or licensing. Is there any solution that will make this work? A runtime or embedded database solution? If there is a license we need to purchase, what would that be? SQL Express Edition work?
we have a sql express - that comes standard with servers.I just wanted to know.....Is there any addition Client access licenses needed for this sql express or not.
