A developer I need to support believes that the Enterprise Edition is required to take advantage of a dual processor Compaq ProLiant 3000. This machine is not a quad box, just a standard MPS architecture with a single CPU installed.
I recall that the standard SQL 6.5 build will fully utilize a standard MPS DP system and that Enterprise is required only for 4-way, 8-way and n-way boxes such as the Tandems.
Any thoughts?

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
Thanks
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
View 23 Replies View RelatedI 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.

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!
View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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

Hello all,
Here I need some help or suggestions for the following topic...
I am using SQL server 2000 enterprise edition installed on the machine. Now I wanted to change the edition from enterprise to standard.
There are around 4 user databases exists on the server.
What are the areas I have to take care while doing this? Could I do as normal installation?
No log shipping implemented on the server.
Your suggestions would be very helpful to me.
Thanks in advance.
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
I recently bought a Dell server with Windows 2003 enterprise edition. I wanted the X32 version and metnioned of the same to the sales people, but somehow they put the x64 edition on the server. The database I am planning to use does not work on X64 edition as of now. How do I downgrade the OS to X32 version? Do I need to send the system back to Dell? Machine not opened yet. Or is there a way I can get software CD and downgrade to X32 version?

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?

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

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.

Is it possible to "convert" from SQL 7.0 Standard Edition to SQL 7.0 Enterprise Edition?
Thanks.
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

How to know if it is standard or enterprise edition that a remote sql server is?
View 7 Replies View RelatedRecently, I worked on installing SQL Server 2000 into a clustered environement. I installed the Standard edition, tested it, and everything works fine. However, in reading some information on Enterprise Edition from Microsoft, I see where it says to install Enterprise Edition when using a clustered, or failover, environement. Can anyone give me a layman's explanation as to why this is? Everything is functioning just fine with the Standard Edition installed.
I really don't want to re-install if I don't have to.
Thanks in advance.
