SQL 2000 CALs
May 14, 2007Hi All,
My company has Windows Small Business Server 2003 Premium Edition installed. I am wondering if we need additional SQL CALs (besides the SBS CALs) for the SQL 2000 that is installed with SBS 2003 Premium Edition.
Thanks in advance for all your feedbacks.

SQL Server 2000 Cals
Jul 2, 2006If someone could please help.
We have a server running Win 2000 Server with SQL 2000 Server.
1) How can I tell which of the 20 network users have SQL 2000 Cals?
2) How can I tell wether a Win 2000 Server client has a Device or User Cal.
Thanks
SQL 2000 Licensing With CALs
Dec 20, 2006Hi,
I didn't find any other forum to ask this and I didn't find any matching post for my question, so I post it here:
We have an application that is running on 2 web servers connected to a sql2000 server with a 2-processor license ... so I think there we have no problem no matter how many users are using our web application.
But the web application is producing a huge amount of logs that we want to analyze on a distinct multi-proc sql2000 server with a huge amount of harddisk space that's running with CAL licensing (not really sure how many we have for that server).
In a perfect solution we will provide access to the logs via our 2 web servers using the same application, but only for a given number of users (the number of users we hav CALs for). I think using that approach we get into licensing trouble.
Would it be ok to start a second web site on the same servers with an IP restriction allowing only "n" predefined IP endpoints so that only these machines can access the sql-Server that is running in CAL mode?
I'm not really sure what the CAL model really wants to allow - "n" physical users (persons), "n" end user computers, "n" database connections, max "n" of all together and is it concurrent, in a time of one day, the lifetime of the server? Maybe there's a document with some real world examples that I didn't find.
CU,
Sven

How To Add/remove CALs In SQL 2005 Standard

How Many CALs ?
Nov 15, 2000Hello everyone,
I have live application in Greece with 300 users. VB5 with SQL Server 6.5
SP5a. The system is being totally upgrade to use SQL Server 7, the
application has also been upgraded.
The client therefore has 300 CALs for SQL Server 6.5.
If SQL Server 7 is being installed, do the clients need to purchase another
300 CALs for SQL Server 7, or do the existing CALs allow for access to SQL
Server 7. (i.e are they transferable). In what blocks can these be purchased
in, can you provide a website URL for reference.
An urgent response to this would be appreciated as I have technical people
(not DBAs, nor am I a DBA !) on site.
regards

Jul 20, 2005Hi,I am slightly confused about the meaning of a 'device cal'(specifically for sql server but I guess the same applies to other mslicences)In the examples about device cals, there is a picture of a number ofwindows desktops connected to a database server. each desktop canpotentially be used by a number of users and requires one device cal.All well and good.Now, say I have a web application hosted hosted on a different machineand connecting to SQL server. the SQL server licencing FAQ says"A device CAL covers multiple users' access to server software from asingle, shared device."is my web server a shared device? so does the web server require asingle device CAL no matter how many users use it?Andy
View 9 Replies View RelatedHow Are Device Cals Managed And Assigned.
Aug 21, 2007Hello all,
This seems like a simple question but I still haven't been able to get an answer from Microsoft Canada. We're looking at buying 75 device cals to connect to a single instance of SQL Server Standard Edition. Our question is on how those licenses are assigned and/or activated.
Do we need to manually do something for each station or is it an automated process done the first time a station connects to the server? We also wat to understand what happens when a workstation dies and is replaced by another one. Do you have to do something on the server to transfer the license to the new station ?
In other words, when using device cals (and/or user cals), do you have to do any type of license management or is it all transparent ?
Install Sql 2005 Instance With Reporting Service 2005 On Sql 2000 With RS 2000 Server
Aug 18, 2006Hi
We would like to install Sql 2005 Enterprise Edition (including database engine, reporting service, integration service and analysis service) as a sepearte instance on a server which already has Sql 2000 with reporting services and analysis services. We do not want to disturb the existing sql 2000 setup.
If we do that then what will happen to my earlier sql 2000 reporting service? Will it be upgraded to sql 2005 reporting service? I heard that reporting services are instance unaware application. Where will be the default reporting service database available?
Please help us.

SQL 2005 Thinks A SQL 2000 Backup Is Corrupt, But SQL 2000 Restores Just Fine
Jul 19, 2007I am attempting to move some SQL 2000 databases to SQL 2005. My main production database does not seem to want to move. When I use the SQL 2005 GUI the .bak backup file is marked 'Incomplete'. When I attempt to restore the backup file I get a 'RESTORE detected an error on page (0:0) in database' message. I saw a thread in the SQL Express forum suggesting trying to restore from the T-SQL level to get the GUI out of the picture and I get the same 'error on page (0:0)' message. However when I take the same file and use SQL 2000 Enterprise Manager it restores with no problems.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Bit-data From SQL Server 2000 (2005 Working, 2000 Doesn't)
May 19, 2008Hi, I am trying to edit some data from a SQL2000-datasource in ASP.NET 2.0 and have a problem with a column that has bit-data and is used for selection. SQL2005 works fine when declaring <SelectParameters> <asp:Parameter DefaultValue="TRUE" Name="APL" Type="boolean" /> </SelectParameters>When running this code with SQL2000, there are no error-msgs, but after editing a record the "APL"-column looses its value of 1 and is set to 0. Looks like an issue with type-conversion, we've hit incompatibilities between SQL200 and 2005 with bit/boolean several times before. So, how is this done correctly with SQL2000? (I've tried setting the Type to "int16" -> err. Also setting Defval="1" gave an err) ThanksMichael

Log Shipping From 2005 In 2000 Compatibility Mode --&&> 2000 Can I Do This?
Dec 18, 2007I am in the process of migrating from Sql Server 2000 to 2005. Part of my plan is to move some database's to 2005, but use the 2000 compatibility mode for the short term. My issue is this, our DR boxes are still on SQL Server 2000, would I still be able to use our log shipping processes? Or would I be better off in starting with migrating the DR boxes to 2005 first?
Thanks in advance.
SQL 2000 To SQL 2005 Works For One 2000 Server But Not The Next
Jun 15, 2006
I have several SQL 2000 servers I need to setup transactional (non updatable) replication with. The structure is:
SQL Server 2000 as Publisher/Distributor
SQL Server 2005 Standard as Subscriber
The connection is via the Internet with snapshots using FTP.
I setup the first set (2 databases at location A). They work wonderfully. I created the publication and then subscribed using MGMT Studio for 2K5.
II am setting up the same scenario for location B. Here is my problem:
In MGMT Studio I connect to the publisher (SANDRA). I right-click a publication and choose New Subscriptions..., the publication is already selected. I click next - Run each agent at its Subscriber is selected and the only option (this is desired), I click Next
HERE IS THE PROBLEM:
On the Subscriber's screen there are no Subscribers listed. When setting up location A the subscribing server was listed and I could choose a database. The Next button is greyed out and there is no way to create/add one.
I tried setting up the subscription by right-clicking the subcribing server's Replication folder in MGMT Studio but I get the same result (except that I have to authenticate with the publishing server which works fine).
WHAT'S DIFFERENT:
Location A is SQL Server Standard (SP3) running on SBS2K3. It is obviously on a domain and so SQL Server and the SQL Agent are running under domain accounts. Location B is a Windows XP SP2 machine running SQL Server Personal Edition (it actually says Development Edition in the properties window).
The databases are the same strucutre, different data. At location A the firewall is set to allow 1433->*any* and *any*->1433 where *any* is 1024 or higher. On the XP machine the firewall is set to allow port 1433. I don't think this is the issue because I've turned the firewall off on the XP machine and I get the same result.
ANY IDEAS?
Sql 2005 Sql 2000 DB Diagrams, Re-install Sql 2000, Need Help.....

Question: can we reinstall the sql 2000 client tools on their boxes without affecting the current sql 2005 install on their boxes?

VS 2005/SQL Server2005 - Direct Connection From Win Mobile Emulator To Desktop SQL Server 2000 Or 2005
Aug 10, 2007Hello Everyone,
I'm trying to connect to Desktop SQL Server 2000 from Windows mobile PC Emulator (VS 2005). I need a direct connection using connection string to SQL Server 2000 through local wireless network without IIS.
Bellow is the code that I use. After executing this code I get an error on line Conn.Open(). Error says SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
SQL is un and running, and I can log in using SA username from the desktop. Even if I chance IP for another SQL server in my connection string I still get the same error. There is no firewall of any kind running.
Dim connectionSTR As String = "Persist Security Info=False;Integrated Security=False;Server=192.168.0.202,1433;initial catalog=MyDB;user id=sa;password=;"
Dim Conn As SqlConnection
Conn = New SqlConnection(connectionSTR)
Conn.Open()
If Conn.State = ConnectionState.Open Then
MessageBox.Show("Open")
End If
About my environment: SQL Server 2000 is running on Desktop PC with Windows XP SP2. Application which I need to connect to SQL Server is in Visual Studio 2005. I execute the application in Windows Mobile PC Emulator and try to connect to SQL Server from emulator.
Your advice and help is very appreciated
Thank you

Load Backup From 2000 To 2005 Or Recreate Structure On 2005?
Apr 23, 2008Hello,
I would like to ask you if there is better to recreate database structure on 2005 from 2000 and move data or to just load
2000 backup.
Currently I loaded the backup, but I am wondering if there might be slightly better performance on 2005 when recreating structure on 2005 to loading 2000 backup?
Does loading 2000 backup create 2005 binary structure?
Thanks for help in advance

View 3 Replies View RelatedWhat Will Going From Latin1_General_Bin To Latin1_General_Bin2 In SQL 2005 Do To Replication From 2000 To 2005?
Aug 3, 2006If we changed the sort order from BIN to BIN2 but kept everything else the same will it have any effect on replication? So in SQL 2005 if I were to change my default collation from Latin1_General_Bin to Latin1_General_Bin2, would that cause replication to break? I suspect that it will not be an issue since it is just sort order that is changing and the code page stays the same.
BTW, this is transactional replication. Sorry, I left that out of my original post.
Thanks,

Nov 21, 2005I want to use SQL 2000 with VS 2005. I do have SQL 2005 Express installed but i would rather use SQL 2000 because all my DBs are currently in this version and I want to get up and developing now and then convert them to SQL 2005 one at a time. LATER...When I try to connect to SQL 2000 through VS 2005 I keep getting this error that tells me it can not connect to SQL 2005 Express. This is my conncetion string:
Const connectionString As String = "Server=localhost;Trusted_Connection=True;Database=Northwind"One thing that I see wrong with the error is that I thought SQL 2005 did not have Northwind anymore. And 2 this is a sample app from MS website. So why would it try to connect to SQL 2005 Express. This is my first try at connecting to a DB with VS 2005.Please Help.-J
SQL 2000 Vs SQL 2005 EE

However, after long hour to figure out, my hosting company doesn't use
sql 2005. They only have SQL Server 2000. Even I have to pay for using
SQL 2000.
My question is, what is the different between SQL 2000 and 2005 in term of using it in a server?
My condition is that I am developing my database under SQL Server 2005
EE, now, can it be uploaded to be used in a server with SQL 2000?
Thanks in advanced for all help, time and your support. HAVE a good day!
