Upgrade From SQL 2005 Standard To Enterprise
Aug 31, 2006I'm installing SQL 2005 on a cluster. Currently we do not need the features of enterprise edition, but we may need them in the future. Can you upgrade Standard edition to Enterprise edition (on a cluster)?

Dec 2, 2006As I found on http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143393.aspx its only possible on 32 Bit subsystems and not on native 64 bit - is this true?
In addition is it a complete installations which remains the current configuration? (i guess this because we have to apply all service packs again)?
and at least - is a license upgarde possible or do we have to buy a complete new licence?

Sep 1, 2007Simple question. I have a client that needs SQL 2005 Standard installed NOW, and cannot wait for media to arrive. I know I can download the 180 trial of SQL 2005 Enterprise, but can it be licensed as Standard when we purchase?

May 1, 2008I installed SQL 2005 Standard edition on a failover cluster (Windows 2003). It is in production. Vendor wanted Enterprise Edition. What are my options to migrate to Enterprise? Is there an in-place way to do this, or is it a big deal?
Vendor probably doesn't need Enterprise. It's a low volume OLTP application with small databases. No fancy stuff (other than the failover clustering). Vendor simply did not test his application on Standard so he says we need Enterprise. Nevertheless, Management will probably want me to make the change.
SQL 2005 Enterprise Insted Standard Edition
Mar 11, 2008Hi All !!
I have a Server on Development with SQL 2000 + Report Server 2000 and SQL 2005 Standard with Report Server 2005. All is working properly.
Now, my boss realized that it is important to use SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition instead of SQL 2005 Standard Edition. This is the first time I do this and I don't know where to start or which are the items that I should consider when installing SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition.
Should I uninstall SQL 2005 Standard?
After installing Enterprise, Report Server will work as usual?
Are there any items to have in mind?
Many Thanks!!

SQL 2000 Enterprise Upgrade To SQL 2005 Standard
Feb 12, 2008
Hi All
I'm after some advice, I am looking for the best way to do this:
I have a SQL 2000 Clustered Virtual Instance which is of course Enterprise Edition as it is clustered. I need to upgrade to 2005, but dont need the 2005 Enterprise features, Standard will do, as this supports clustering.
The restrictions are that you cant upgrade 200Ent to 2005Std.
As this is a fairly complex environment, it has a default instance running on node 1 and a named instance running on node 2
I dont particularly want to uninstall both 2000 instances, and then install new 2005 instances
So is it possible to upgrade to 2005 ent, and then downgrade to standard. I have seen a suggestion without any details, that there is an undocumented sp, sp_update_resume, that might do this. Does anyone know about this
Or does anybody have any other suggestions. (the names of the instances have to be the same, as the existing instances)
Thanks in advance

How To Make Sure A Upgrade From Sql 2005 Standard To Enterprise Edition?
Apr 16, 2007Randy,
I did run upgrade advisior to check the existed sql 2005 standard edition to upgrade to enterprise editon. I got the following error message:
SQL Server version: 09.00.1399 is not supported by this release of Upgrade Advisor
Is it means the upgrade advisor can only work on from 7.0, 2000 to 2005? If I need check from standard to enterjprise in 2005, what kind of tool I can use?

Jun 6, 2006Hello, you all,
I did all the stuff necessary for the upgrading (the Upgrade Advisor didn't say anything special), but the Setup says the following:
"
Name: Microsoft SQL Server 7.00.1063
Cause: The update is blocked. You can obtain more informations in the online help "Versions- and editionsupdates".
Editions problem:
The update is blocked because of rules for the editions update.
"
Is it possible that an upgrade is not possible with the evaluation edition? Or can there be another cause?
Thanks in advance

SQL 2005 Standard To Enterprise Edition Upgrade On Existing Three-node Cluster
Jun 10, 2007Current set-up: three node cluster running Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition SP2 with two instances of SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition SP2.
Virtual node 1: Standard Edition, default instance, Database Engine only
Virtual node 2: Standard Edition, named instance, Database Engine, Analysis Services and Integration Services
Physical node A: Prefered node for virtual node 1
Physical node B: Failover node for both virtual node 1 and 2 (thus having two installations of Standard Edition)
Physical node C: Prefered node for virtual node 2
We started off with this set-up because there was no need for Enterprise features, and SQL 2005 supports failover clustering with two nodes in Standard Edition. Saved a bundle of cash, so everybody's happy. Now we need to run a solution on virtual node 2 that requires Enterprise features in Analysis and Integration Services, so an edition upgrade is required on virtual node 2. I have done some research and found several edition upgrade examples, but none that match the above scenario. We are running production on these machines, so I can't risk experimenting with command line options, I have to be right the first time.
Is it possible to mix two editions of SQL Server 2005 in one cluster? Can I upgrade virtual node 2 to Enterprise but leave virtual node 1 at Standard? What procedure do I have to follow to upgrade all three components of virtual node 2 to Enterprise Edition on both physical node B and C?
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
Standard 2005 To Enterprise 2005
Oct 25, 2006We're setting up a BI server currently with trial edition. We don't know quite yet if we'll need the full-blown enterprise edition, but I have to put some numbers in the budget for next year now.
So, under the assumption that we buy standard 2005 edition for this, while I see that an upgrade to enterprise 2005 is possible, is there also upgrade pricing to move to enterprise or would we have to buy enterprise at full price?
SQL 2005 Enterprise To 2005 Standard
Feb 9, 2007We have a situation where we installed the Enterprise version of SQL Server 2005 on a server that is now in production and we had intended to install the standard edition (what we are licensed for). We have enterprise licenses for other servers so we have both types of media and it was a mistake that was made.
I was wondering if there is a way to downgrade the version without uninstalling and reinstalling and having to backup and restore all the databases, jobs, SSIS packages, etc. Any suggestions or help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
John

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

Downgrade Path From SQL 2005 Enterprise Trial Edition To Standard Edition
Oct 17, 2007
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!

Enterprise To Standard
Nov 20, 2002Does anyone know if it is possible to go from the Enterprise edition of SQL, back to Standard?
In other words, Enterprise Edition is installed, but what we really want is Standard. Is there any way around this, other than uninstalling and reinstalling SQL?

SQL STANDARD/ ENTERPRISE
Dec 27, 2007How are you, I was wondering if I could uninstall and reintall sql server standard and upgrade to enterprise edition.
What i mean..
We have 10 computers running sql server standard. We want to upgrade them to enterprise edition bc there are another 10 machines with enterprise.
Would we have to uninstall standard edition before installing enterprise.
Or could we just install enterprise edition over standard
Has anyone done this? Compatibilty issue?? We are doing it remotly as well, some machines in NC, some in Vegas, some in Cali. So all will be done through RDC.
any and all help will be great
Thanks

How To Know If It Is Standard Or Enterprise Edition?
Aug 7, 2003How to know if it is standard or enterprise edition that a remote sql server is?
View 7 Replies View RelatedStandard Vs Enterprise Edition
Feb 19, 2004Recently, 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.
