Renaming A Sql Server Instance After You Rename The Server
Apr 21, 2004I installed sql server on one of my test servers, and I am eventually going to rename this server and put it into production. This server will replace one of my old servers with the same name. I was wondering if there was a way to rename the SQL Server instance after you rename your server without having to reinstall SQL Server. Thanks in advance for all the help.

Rename Sql Server
Jul 16, 2002if my computer name is x and sql server was installed and therefore took on the default name of x, can I change the sql server name to y at a later date while the computer name remains as x? If so how do I do it?
The sp_addserver is internal recognition. But I want to connect to sql server using the new name y.
I am assuming setup needs to be run only if computer name also changes to y and this is not the case.
Any help is appreciated.
Rename SQL Server
Jul 14, 2000To all,
I would like to rename my SQL server. Someone suggested SQLServer and we went with it, but after some discussions with other developers we thought that this name would be a hackers delight. So now I need to rename it to something that wouldn't put a "bulls eye" on its back. Any suggestions? :-)
This machine is not in production just yet, so if I had to reinstall SQL it wouldnt' be that bad of an option.
Thnx.

Rename NT Server And SQL Databases
Dec 14, 1998We have an NT 4.0 member server in a production domain which has SQL 6.5 loaded with a number of databases. There is a requirement to rename the NT server to another name. Will we have to reinstall SQL and reload any databases after the server is renamed? If not - are there any other considerations/registry changes necessary to ensure SQL will run correctly?
Thank you for assistance.
Rename SQL 2005 Server
Jun 4, 2008I am installing SQL Server 2005 on a couple of servers where the windows server will later be renamed. One is a default instance, and one is a named instance.
Does anyone have a procedure for this, or know any gotchas for 2005? I have done this for SQL 2000 many times, but never of 2005.
Books Online seems to say you just rename the server, and everything will be OK.
I know how to rename the server internally with sp_dropserver and sp_dropserver. It looks like you no longer have to update originating_server in msdb.dbo.sysjobs, because it was replaced by originating_server_id.
Got links?

Issues After Server Rename
Apr 27, 2007We have a new SQL Server 2005 box in place and we named this server - Server2. Restored all the production databases from original Server1. Server1 is running SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition. Server1 also has three subscribers ServerA, ServerB, and ServerC.
After Server2 was renamed to Server1 and Server1 decommissioned, replication is not working on the new Server1 due to the renaming issue. I can afford to re do replication from ground up on Server1 but cannot reinstall SQL Server 2005 and start from scratch since the server is already in production.
How can I resolve this issue? What is the right approach to take for the scenario described above?
Rename A Linked Server
Sep 26, 2006I have an app that has some stored procedures running queries across a linked server. In our development environment, the linked database is on a box called 10.xxx.xxx.xx. In the production environment, the linked database will be on a server called something else. What I want to do is have the linked server in the development environment named the same thing as the linked server in the production environment, so that I won't have to change the stored procedures when migrating the project into production.
SQL Server 2005 isn't giving me the option to rename or alias the linked server, though. Is there anyway to do this so that I can have the linked server named the same thing on the two different boxes and not have to change the sp's?
Rename Machine With SQL Server
Jun 16, 2007I'm trying to write a script to run after changing the computer name of a machine running SQL Server 2005. I know about the article on the SQL Developer center that talks about sp_dropserver and sp_addserver. My question is about the Windows groups that are created with the machine name embedded inside (e.g. MACHINENAMESQLServer2005MSFTEUser$MACHINENAME$MSSQLSERVER).
Do I need to worry about these? If the answer is no because the name of the group is irrelevant, how do I go about changing the machine name for the login (i.e. the MACHINENAME in front of the slash)? I don't want to hardcode these group names into my script.
Thanks for any help.

Sorry 'bout my bad english.
Is there any possibility, to change the current server name from the stuctureview in the Enterprise Manger. I'm registering a lot of online-servers from my customers. The remote servername is fixed of course, but I want to change it local, to explain it a little bit better

Instance Name Question.... Server Rename After Installation.....
Jan 16, 2008
Scenario 1:
Windows 2000 Server
SQL Server 2000 with default name installation.
When we change the Windows Server name the SQL Server jobs becomes non editable.
Scenario 2:
Does this situation still exists for the following configuration?
Windows Server 2003
SQL Server 2005.
Question 1: I am planning to move the SQL Server from 2000 to 2005 as described in scenario 1 to scenario 2. Does changing the server name have any impact on previously created jobs? Does the jobs becomes non editable.
Question 2: Is it possible to have two servers with same name on a network? If possible, please elaborate.
Thank you,

SQL Server 2005 Client Tools Not Shown Up In Start Menu On Windows 2003 Server
Jul 18, 2007Hello,
I have installed SQL server 2005 enterprise edition on Windows 2003 virtual PC (full installation). The installation went through successfully. However, after install completed, I cannot find any of the client tools under the start menu -> all programs -> Microsoft SQL server 2005 menu. The only item listed under the SQL server 2005 is Configuration Tools, which is used to configure the database server.
I have tried to install the client component again (in case I didn't install them at the first place) but the installation process cannot be started since it detected that the client components have been installed already. I can also see the sql server native client running in the services.
The server engine is working fine since I can connect to that sql server using another machine where I have the client tool (SQL server management studio).
One of my friends has exactly the same problem. He installed the sql server 2005 Standard edition on windows 2003 server (full installation), but the client tools are not showing up in the start menu either.
I also checked the location for the SQL server management studio (Microsoft SQL server/90/Tools/Binn/VSShell/Common7/IDE), there is only one folder called publicAssemblies listed under. Is this correct or something is missing?
Thanks
