Hi,
We have SQL 2005 2 node active-active clustering with 2 instances on each node.(total 4 instances).
Is it possible to apply Service packs to just 1 instance or does it impact all 4 instances on both nodes ?
anyone using ssis ought to consider installing sp1 and the hot fixes.
of course, these should be tested before installing on a server in production.

Hi,
I have an interesting situation here. I have a SQL Server 2000 database which is attached to SQL Server 2005. The database (SQL 2000) however only has service pack 3 applied. I need to apply SP4 before I can move forward with SQL 2000->2005 upgrade. The question: can I somehow apply this support package with my current configuration or should I install full SQL 2000 front-end anew (which I don't have at the moment)? Whenever I try to run SQL 2000 SP4 it complains "SQL Server 2000 is not installed on this machine."
The server I try to install the update is Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard Edition x64. SQL Server 2000 database itself is x86 (obviously).
Thanks.
Hey Everyone,
We have SQL 2005 without any service packs. Can directly upgrade SQL 2005 to service pack 2? Or does it require SP1 to be installed first?
Cheers,

How do SQL 2000 service packs play a role in upgrading? That is, can SQL 2000 Standard with no Service Packs(SP) be upgraded to SQL 2005 Standard, or does SQL 2000 Standard have to have a certain service pack(SP).
What about re-applying SQL 2005 service packs when upgrading Express SP1 to Workgroup, etc.?
I am running SQL Server 6.5 on a W2K server. I recently encountered theproblem described in Microsoft KB atricle 153455. The server has NOservice packs installed on it. I have downloaded sp5a from the MS siteand tried to install it, but I am told that SQL Server is not installedon the machine, which it is.I know this is a stretch, but might anyone have the previous servicepacks for 6.5? I can't find them on the MS site, probably because theyare cumulative. My thoughts are if I can get some of the oder SP'sinstalled, then I could get 5a installed.Alternately, does anyone know why the sp might be telling me ths SQLServer isn't installed?Any help is appreciated.David PhelanPitman CompanyTotowa, NJwww.pitman.com"No job is too big, no fee is too big!"

Hi,
I am trying to set up a SQL 2005 analysis server cluster in our two servers, AS02 and AS04. The server cluster is built up on Majority Node Set (MNS). During the installation of the analysis service, I don't see the available cluster groups. In the cluster admin, the cluster is up and running fine. The MNS cluster has no shared disk, and it has two nodes.
Any thoughts or suggestions? or is it possible to built the SQL 2005 analysis service cluster with MNS?
Thanks.
Hey I am new in sql server admin field . Just installed service pack 2 on sql server. but I am not sure whether I should apply service pack to the client machine also.
And if I have to , how to do that? Use the same executable?
Please reply.
I realize that this is probably a very simple question, but how do i determine what service pack is installed on an SQL 7.0 server?
View 2 Replies View RelatedA couple of service packs have been issued for SQL 7.0, depending upon requirements these may or may not need to be installed. Where can I go to get information on these service packs? And what version numbers will be displayed using "SELECT @@version" ?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm kind of new to SQL 7.0. I have a question regarding where to get the service packs from. When I go into sql server enterprise manager and choose the about option on our server it shows service pack 6. When I do it on my laptop it shows 4. I want to get them on the same service pack. Unfortunatley I wasn't the one who put it on the server and I can't find it anywhere. Can someone tell me where I can get the service packs from. I went out to Microsoft page but all I saw was service pack 2.

I was trying to verify my SQL service pack level, when I ran a
select @@version, my results contained 6.50.274. Does anyone know what service pack .274 is? My documentaion shows that SQL SP3 is 6.50.258 and
SQL SP4 is 6.50.281. Any help that can be provided would be greatly appreciated.

Are there any forseeable problems with only moving one of my company's departments SQL database server to sp2 and leaving the others on sp1? From an admin tools perspective? Our internet groupd would like to move on to sp3 and the others would like to wait?
thanks,
If you apply a service pack on a server, are the backups taken with prior to the new service pack of any use on that server?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a Win 2003 server with SQL 2000 SP3 that is publisher and distributor for several merge replication publications. Subscribers are a mixture of SQL 2000 (running SP3 and SP4) and MSDE. I've run into a problem in creating publications that is fixed in SP4 but for various reasons I can't update all of the subscribers that are running SP3. I don't expect any issues updating just my server but will I have any issues running SP4 on my server and SP3 on the subscribers?
Thanks for the help.

I have SQL Server 7.0 installed in a Fail-over cluster and currently, Full-text indexing is not installed, since our full-text index resides on a different physical server. In an attempt to consolidate our servers I am looking at installing full-text indexing on our cluster. I understand that there will probably be issues getting the Full-text indexing service to fail-over, but I'm not too concerned with that.
What I am concerned with, is, will I need to re-install the latest SQL Server 7.0 service pack? Does anyone know of any security holes with an un-patched version of the full-text indexing service?
Any advice on this situation is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
I was reading that when applying 2008 R2 SP1 you need to run the MDS update component manually: [URL] I was curious if that package changed in later service packs because I couldn't find any mention of it.
SQL 2012, if there was a similar process in their service packs for MDS, or if it hasn't been upgraded?

I got this system error log in the event viewer every time I start the SQL Server cluster resource:
The Microsoft Clustering Service failed restore a registry key for resource SQL Server when it was brought online. This error code was 2. Some changes may be lost.
Even though the SQL seems to be working fine now, I won't know if something drastic will happen later. :confused:
Searching the Internet for resolution, I saw this article. The Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - 307469 (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=307469) requires using the Windows Server 2003 ClusterRecover utility to reset the server cluster check points.
I've not tried it because I don't know if this is the correct solution or if it will work or not.
Can I even solve the error without using the above utility? I also cannot afford to reinstall the clustering or SQL server. :mad:
Thanks in advance. :)

I am getting ready to have a SQL Server failover cluster setup. I have used SQL 2000 for years, mostly for DTS and related database activities, but NOT in a cluster. I have used SQL 2005 for about one year but not intensively, and NOT in a cluster.
We need to set up a cluster. We are setting up a DELL EMC solution. I am going to hire a consultant to set it up, including the SQL part. My questions are should I use SQL 2000 or 2005? (I don't know if one is better than the other for clustering. Both are supported by our vendor for the application we are running.) How hard is it to maintain a cluster if one hasn't had experience in that area before? How should I prepare?
Any opinions or experiences that you would like to share would be helpful.
Thank you.
I am developing an enterprise class solution using SQL Server 2005 and MS .NET v2 and am tying determine if SQL Server 2005 (which edition and if so how) would be adequate for my proposed solution. Any feedback, tips, comments would be greatly appreciated.
As a background the solution I am developing will be web services based and used by multiple offices around the globe by over 500 users. I have already developed a prototype using a single SQL Server 2005 instance but as this solution is going to be used by offices around the world I want to have an IIS Server and SQL Server 2005 server instance in each office with "links" back to the primary SQL Server 2005 cluster in Australia.
One of my thoughts was to set up replication between the offices that would happen at midnight remote office local time and then set up triggers to update the primary cluster when assoociated data was changed on the remote sites or on the primary cluster. Does anyone know or can anyone suggest alternatives to this strategy?
I effectively need some sort of inter site caching functionality with store and foreward capabilities ...
Thanks
Andrew
