Hi Folks,
A simple question, but I can't seem to find the answer anywhere on line:
Can you use SQL 2005 Standard edition to replicate a SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition?
Many thanks in advance,
Ron Fowler
In setting up replication between databases do both sql installations have to be enterprise or can it be done with both sql server standard edition.
thanks,
I am running SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition on a 2 node cluster. Can I install SQL 2005 Standard edition on the same cluster?
I'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)?

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?
Thanks HANNES
We want to licence a trail version 2005 Enterprise with an full version of MS Sql server 2005 standard. Is this possible?
View 1 Replies View RelatedSimple 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?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI 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.
Hi 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!!

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

Randy,
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?
Hi
we have installed SQL 2005 Standard and we are planning to upgrade to SQL 2005 Enterprise version. Do i need to uninstall SQL 2005 Standard and reinstall Enterprise or i can install SQL 2005 Enterprise on top of standard version to upgrade.
Thanks a lot in advance
Can SQL 2005 32bit Standard edition be upgraded to SQL 2005 32bit Enterprise Edition in-place?
View 4 Replies View RelatedCan SQL 2005 32bit Standard edition be upgraded to SQL 2005 32bit Enterprise Edition in-place.
View 12 Replies View RelatedHello, 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

I have been testing and developing with Sql 2005 enterprise eval. Now ready to deploy, and we have purchased a "device" and 5 "cal" licenses for each box. What is the recommended procedure for applying Sql 2005 "standard" licenses to existing boxes having 2005 enterprise eval. installed? I do not want to delete and re-install sql server if at all possible!
Thanks!

Current 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.
We'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?
We 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
Hi,
We are looking into implementing SQL 2005 on one box and have SQL 2005 Reporting Services run on another box with its own replicated database. Mirrioring would not work in this scenario as the primary box has to be down for the secondary box to accept any incoming request.
My questions here is Microsoft website states that Transactional replication is supported for SQL 2005 Standard Edition, but I did watch some presentation on microsoft website that states that you need to have the Enterprise Edition to enable replication.
Can anyone tell me this is possible or not with the Standard Edition ?
Thanks,
Hi all,
Since some analysis services features are only available in Enterprise version , I have to upgrade my SQL 2005 server from standard edition to enterpise edition.
So I uninstall originial standard version of analysis service and install a Enterprise version. However, the analysis service is still a standard version after installation.
Is it possible to keep data engine as standard version and install a enterprise version of analysis service?
Thank you very much

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

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!

We currently want to move towards partitioning tables on a master server which is running SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition. However, we have transactional replication as well as log-shipping set-up against that server. The log-ship destination is also running Enterprise Edition, but the subscription server(s) are all Standard Edition only. Will there be any problems or special steps required in creating data partitions on some of these replicated tables if we don't upgrade our license?

i set the publisher to drop the table and create a new one when i reinitialize with a new snapshot. it only works when i remove the unique key constraint. but after that the data in the replicated table has wrong entries. a select count ... will show the exacly same number as an select count ... on the original table direktly on the oracle server. i reinitialzied the replication multiple times with new snapshots. but the problem does not resolve. first i got a unique key constraint. then i typed truncate table ..., after that i removed the the unique constraint and than all data will be imported but there are some entries that are not existing in oracle.
my server is patched with the newest updates for sql 2005 (Version 9.0.3159).
for exempla the following statement will show the same results on oracle and sql 2005:
Oracle:
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM S_AGRZ

MS-SQL:
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM S_AGRZ

I'm try to upgrade SQL Server 2005 Evaluation with tuned up and worked merge replication.
- I'm insert disk with licensed SQL Server 2005 Enterprise, start installation - in process, indicate instance for installing, in list of options appears I see option "ugrade"
- All passes fine and go on:
After upgarde I'm get completely broken merge replication!
Moreover, such feeling that certain strange troubles with SQL Agent:
all points context menu in Replication Monotor - disabled and if I try to start replication manually through jobs - too failed - with some error "agent shutdown" !
I'm try to build "clear" situation: install in Virtual PC Windows 2003 Ent SP1, SQL 2005 Eval and setup my test replication and upgrade SQL Server to Enterprise version - and get same trouble too!!!
What the best way to uprade my evaluations sql servers with replication to licensed version SQL Ent?

Hello everybody,
I got a problem in my development phase. I'm developing a web-application system that running merge database technology which is centralized database and distributed database. This is because my customer want a highly optimum system standby.
My centralized database running SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition and the distributed database running SQL Server 2005 Express Edition (because it is free). Each of these database, the users can change the data on its database. So, every database must have the same data. from my understanding, each server must act as Publisher and Subscriber. Can SQL Server 2005 Express Edition be a Publisher?
If not, what the solution you all may suggest, because cost is the first factor. If my architecture is not correct, so what you all suggest to me to resolve the problem.
Thanks so much. Any suggestion and opinion is highly appreciate and I'm highly thanks to you all.
Does 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?
I assume not, but thought I would check...
dear all,
if one has purchased enterprise edition of sql server, could he install the standard version instead of the enterprise one without violating software license?
regards
How 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
