Licensing Mode In SQL Server 2000
Jan 5, 2005SQL 200 introduce changes to licensing. There are two licensing modes, Per Seat and Per Processor.
Is there a way to change the licensing mode from Per Seat to Per Processor for a current SQL Installation
Licensing Mode
Aug 9, 1999I know that PerSeat is each individual computer that accesses SQL Server
and PerServer is the number of concurrent connections to the server.
Is Client Access Licenses the same as PerSeat?

Jun 28, 2002At installation I erred in specifying per seat licensing when the server I'm working on is actually a per processor license. Can I change this or must I reinstall SQL 2K?

Licensing Mode
Apr 15, 2004Hi all,
This may seem like a stupid question but i have a server licensed per processor (4 processors) but would like to have it licensed per user. The licensing setup in control panel only shows options for per processor or per devide. How do i get to license per user without reinstalling?
Thanks in advance.
How To Change The Licensing Mode??
Dec 22, 1998I choose "PERSERVER" as licensing mode during the installation of the SQL Server by running the Setup. Now I want to change it to "PERSEAT" but I don't know how.

SQL Server Licensing
Apr 10, 2002If SQL Server 2000 is loaded onto a 8 processor machine, can I legitimately
load Standard Edition, which will only use 4 of the 8 processors, or as
some interpretations of the license suggest, must I purchase Enterprise
Edition (i.e. you are not permitted to load SQL Server on a machine which
has more processors than the Product is capable of using) ?.
I know the "reasonable" answer, but what is the legal position ?

SQL Server Licensing
Jan 8, 2004Hi,
My company is embarking on a data warehousing project. We are going to purchase a Windows 2003 server. It would be a dual processor. The specs are not certain yet so cannot give more details on that.
1. The data in the warehouse would be close to 150 GB.
2. There will be maximum of 10 users needs a SQL Server license.
3. Do not need analysis services.
What edition do I go with -Enterprise OR Standara? I want the least priced edition. I looked up the various links on Books Online but I am still not able to decide.
Say I need only 2 GB of RAM. Then here are my questions.
1. Since we are going with a dual-processor, do I need to purchase processor license for each of the two? Why can't I have one license on one processor only? What are the implications of this?
2. The 10 users that I am talking about will be remotely connecting to this Windows 2003 server and accessing the databae.
3. What exactly is Failover clustering? Do I really need it for my warehousing project?
4. Please help me pick the correct license. Here is the link -

Mar 9, 2000Hello,everyone!!
There is a query which when executed in the grid mode(ctrl+d) takes approx 0.02 seconds(about 21,000
rows) But when I execute in the text mode, it takes about 0.40 seconds!!
Why is this difference?
Also, when the records from this table are read from a VB application, they are equally slow (as in the text mode!)
Why is it so slow on the text mode & relatively faster in the grid mode?
Has anyone got any idea on ‘Firehose’ style cursor ?(which may speed up access of data in the VB application)

SQL Licensing For State Server
Mar 10, 2006Hello all,
I have a question concerning the ridiculous quagmire of SQL Server licensing…
How is SQL Server licensed when used to store session state information? Is MS claiming that this is an end user use of SQL Server functionality? Or, can we be realistic and say that I need a server license plus a device license for each web server?
Personally, I like everything about SQL Server except the licensing. Management at my company has already said that we’ll most likely be moving to either Firebird or Postgres after they found out how much it would cost to move from SQL 2k to SQL 2005. If MS wants us to buy processor licenses for SQL state servers, I guarantee we’ll be doing something else there as well. I wonder if Microsoft has any clue how much business they’re losing. Not just in SQL Server, but in their OS business as well.
SQL Server Licensing (what Version Should I Use?)
May 2, 2006Hello,
I am very confused about the licensing of SQL Server 2000 and 2005 (various editions), and any light you can shed will be greatly appreciated. I am learning VS2005, and need to build a website.
1. I know what a Client Access License (CAL) is.
2. I know what a processor license is.
My ASP.NET website might have 10 users, 100, or maybe 1,000 (I don't know at this point).They will have anonymous access to a main page from which they will have to log in, and from that point on be using SSL for anything they do.
I am getting conflicting information regarding licensing.
Questions:
1. Can SQL Server 2005 Express support what I need to do? (possibly many users)
2. Other than some of the fancy replication, analysis, etc that Express does not have, is there a good reason not to use Express Edtion?
3. Regarding SQL Server 2000 or 2005 (NOT Express): Does a single web application act as a single user thus the web application requires only one CAL. In other words: I am the only person who has direct access to the database. The ASP.NET web application will also have access to parts of the database. Will this scenario count as 2 "CALs"?

Sql Server Licensing For Internet
Apr 9, 2001I am so confused and I am getting no help from the Microsoft, two months and only stammering
from their representatives. I need to set up a Sql Server database that will allow internet access.
This is not an e-commerce situation. At most there will
be 10 known users of this system accessing statistical data. I had priced this system to use Backoffice,
but as I now read this is not legal for internet use. It also appears that a processor license is required for
internet access (not entirely clear on this). Access and MSDE also don't appear to be legal for internet access.
The customer is on a shoe string budget. If I use stand-alone
components the budget only covers an one processor SQL Server 2000 license. I don't like the idea of setting up
a database system with only one processor. Is there another Sql Server based option I am not aware of?
Its looking like a linux/mysql option - Yikes!
