I'm currently running SQL Server 6.5 on an old NT box. I just got a shiny new server with SQL Server 7 on it, so I'm itching to switch over to the
new server, but I'm going to need to shut down my website while the upgrade occurs, and I need to know how long it's going to take. I have
about 40GB of data in 200 tables in 15 databases. Can anyone estimate how long the upgrade wizard will take to complete its operations?
Thanks,
Steve Renaker

Greetings,
I have a client whose DBA upgraded their SQL 2000 database to SQL 2005. They still have it running in 8.0 compatibility mode, for various reasons, and would like me to help them develop a migration strategy to get them to full 9.0 compatibility.
My question is: can I run the Upgrade Advisor on a SQL 2005 engine database running in 8.0 compatibility mode and get anything useful? I already know there will be some issues with existing DTS packages but it would be nice to catch any other issues in advance.
I know that the Upgrade Advisor was run before the upgrade took place but to my knowledge the report was not saved and none of the recommendations were followed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Lon
I tried creating an alias to the server to get it to connect to analyze the server but it will not recognize the SQL 2000 server as a valid server to analyze. I can use the alias to connect in EM or SSMS. Any ideas? The server is not clustered and is at SP4. I've connected to several others in my environment but this one is causing me grief!
Thanks,
Linda
I upgraded my SQL 2005 Workgroup 2005 to SP2 and subsequently could not get the SQL Server service running. Turns out this was a problem because I had created separate folders for my data and log files. The distmdl.mdf and mssqlsystemresource.mdf files were in my data folder and distmdl.ldf and mssqlsystemresource.ldf were in my log folder. During SP2 upgrade a new distmdl.ldf and mssqlsystemresource.ldf were created in my data folder. I deleted the distmdl.ldf and mssqlsystemresource.ldf files in my log folder and then moved the newly created ones in my data folder into the log folder and all is well now.
Just a heads up!

and my server has really slowed down ?
An i missing something need urgent help
In our application we use the ADODB.Recordset.
In SQL server 2000
If there was a view that joined 2 tables and I accessed the view the 2 ID fields in the view would still have the AutoIncrement attribute still set to true so that I knew those were Identity fields.
In SQL server 2005
I dont' know why but if you reference a View that has Identiy AutoInc fields in ADO it doesn't keep those properties.
Also for whatever reason we Set the ID field to 0 to let ourselves know its a new Record. SQL 2000 let it happen and assumed it to be null where as By Setting the ID to 0 in SQL 2005 causes it to blow up on me.
Is there some sort of setting in SQL that can make SQL 2005 work like SQL 2000 in these two instances...
Hi,
I am currently in the process of upgrading a server from 6.5 to 7.0 However I am using the sp_dbcmptlevel stored procedure to leave the database in 6.5 compatability mode.
I have a few urgent questions on this:
- Would leaving a database in 6.5 affect database performance,ability to use web based development, datawarehousing?
- If I wanted to upgrade to SQL Server 2000, would I first have to switch compatability to 7.0 and then upgrade to 2000?
I would really appreaciate anyone with knowledge on these issues.
Thanks

Can anybody help.
I am about to upgrade a number of systems from SQL Server 6.5 to 7.0. I have not attempted this procedure before.
I plan to use the upgrade wizard to implement the process.
Is there anything I should be aware of before I start , or should this be a straightforward process?
Is there a microsoft web site where I can get info on the upgrade.
Is there any other sites which provide useful info?
Thanks in anticipation,
PAUL

Hi,
I have question about orphan users - I currently have all my database files in the SAN and I am going to replace my server with a new server. My question is if I switch the databases to the new server and keep the same server name as the old one would I get orphan user in my database?
Below is what I am planning to do
1) Detached all databases from SQL server
2) Shut down the old server
3) Rename the new server with the same name as the old server
4) Attached all the databases to the new server.
I am assuming since all my database users are in sysusers (I am still using SQL 2000) then I should be ok. Is this true?
- I can't verify on my own, because I don;t have hardware to try out, :-(, but could some one let me know if you done things like this before?
Thanks in advance

Hi.
We are going to upgrade one of our SQL Server 2000/Win200 instance to SQL Server 2005/Win2003. Currently, the SQL Server 2000 which contains about 30 database. This is my plan:
Install SQL Server 2005/Win2003 on a new instance
Backup SQL Server 2000 database instance (how do I back all 30 database at the same time?)
Then do a Restore from the SQL Server 2005 instanceIs this a good method or using the "Copy Database Wizard" is better method?
I'm new to this so please advice? Thanks!

Hi All,
A client of mine was using SQL Express and soon realised this doesn't meet his needs performance or database size wise. He also realised that SQL Server 2005 Workgroup came free with his R2 version of SBS.
So in essence, I have been trying to find the Microsoft recommended way to upgrade from Express to Workgroup. I have not been able to find a step-by-step guide and to add to my confusion, when I run the work-group installer it tells me to run the installer with a switch which I have gone ahead and done but when selecting components it has all of them defaulted to blanked out.
Surely the process for an in-place upgrade should not be so technical as I am finding it ? To my mind, the natural progression would be to upgrade express to a better capable version of 2005 and should be as easy as pie.
Anyway, I am basically looking for a step-by-step guide on how to upgrade to get it done right the first time as opposed to upgrading and than realised some remenants of Express are still larking about causing trouble.
Regards,
QS
Hi all,
We are currently using VWD and Sql Server Express 2005. There is now SSE SP1 available (as well as another version with additional software). So, I have some questions:
1) Is the only difference between SSE and SSE SP1 just the addition of Management Studio Express?
2) Can I just upgrade to SSE SP1 separately, (It installed automatically when I installed VWD), and will VWD still work correctly with all the databases I have already created?
3) We are considering upgrading to full Sql Server in the near future. I have heard that there are problems if we have Management Studio Express installed and then try to install full Sql Server. Is this true?
Thanks for your help,
Claude.

Hello,
We've some of the boxes are SQL Server 7.0 with 65 compatability and SQL Server 7.0 with 70 compatability. Now we are planing to upgrade to SQL 2000 with 80 compatability.
My question, how much complicated it is?
Is there any code changes to do in Stored Procs or Triggers or other? and what are the differences?
If lot of code changes, is there any tool to scan stored procedures?
(As we've more 5000 Stored Procedures)
If my question is not clear, let me know.

Hi
We currently have a Server:
Dual Intel Xeon 3.0 GHz
4 GB ram
(C) 2x18 GB SCSI disks RAID 1 for OS
(D) 4x72 GB SCSI disks RAID 5 for Data
The server is running:
Windows 2003 + IIS (Single web application)
Tomcat (Single web application) (Is about to be outfased)
MS SQL 2005 (In simple recovery mode)
The C-driver is currently only used for OS and applications
The D-driver is holding all data + SQL Data files and SQL Transaction files...
E.g.
- SQL Data files = 7 GB
- SQL Transaction files = 20 GB
- Image liberary = 100 GB
- Other = 15 GB
The IIS uses around 768 MB ram for cashing and execution of the web application
The Tomcat uses around 350 MB ram
The SQL is the to use a max of 2.2 GB ram (and 1024 MB pr. query)
(Leaving around 512 MB ram left)
There is only one database installed on the SQL, but it is very large (+15 mill records)
We are currently doing Free-Text searches in one table (~3.5 mill records), and it is to slow.
So the question is what is the best way to gain performance...
- Increase to 8 GB ram?
- Purchase a new server as webserver, so the curr. server can be dedicated as SQL?
- Attach a NAS to split the SQL files into several groups, and seperate transaction logs from data?
(6 disks are max in curr. server)
Economy has to be considered :)
Thanx!
