We have an x86 sql 2000 server with 4GB of RAM, a quadcore Xeon, a RAID 5 drive C, and its utilization is generally low. Typical perfmon counters: CPU < 5%; available Mbytes, 1800; typical disk time 5-10 %; Committed bytes in use < 25%, pagessec near 0.0.
For various reasons I need to install a sql 2005 instance on the same box and both instances will be up and running at the same time.
How, using Perfmon (?), can I determine the max amount of memory to assign to each instance? (It is my understanding that I definitiely need to limit the amount of RAM used by each instance.)
Hi,i have SQL 2000 and 2005 on same machine(with different intance names,of course), my laptop - XP with SP2. The 2005 works fine but i can'tconnect on SQL 2000. All the the SQL services are started.Any idea? Have i to reinstall 2000?Tks,Lourival
I have a server with SQL Server2000 databases in it.. Now i would like to install SQL Server 2005 on the same server with out disturbing SQL Server 2000 databases
I need to create a seperate instance for SQL Server 2005..
is it possible to have both the instances on the same server.
I have a cluster with 4 sql server 2000 instances and would like to upgrade 2 of these to sql server 2005 - is there any document or list of things to ensure I do
We currently have multiple instances of MS Sql 2000 and MS SQL 2005 installed on servers. When at other locations that uses different subnets only the default instance is available, published, broadcasted, selectable.
We have TCPIP and name pipes enabled for all instances. This seems to be a common problem for all locations.
Hi i am new using SQL 2005, i have SQL 2000 Personal Edition SP4 with 2 databases for testing installed in the default instance and i would like to install SQL 2005 standart Edition (i have Windows XP pro sp2) . can i have the same instance for both SQL database engine?. or to create a new instance for the 2005?. what i need is to test SQL 2005 while i keep my database for test in SQL 2000. I was trying to install by typing a named instance, and it gave me an errors. then i try again by choosing the default instance and then it start an upgrade operation and affter a sucess upgrade now i cannot see the sql management studio and neder Enterprice Manager for SQL 2000. i am confuse, some ideas for this issue?
I had a server with SQL Server 7.0 I installed a named instance of SQL Server 2000 and then i passed all my DB of the 7.0 instance to the 2000 instance. Then i removed the 7.0 instance, that was the default instance. So at the moment there is only the 2000 version, but it isn't the default instance Can the 2000 instance become the default instance? (So that clients can connect to it simply through computer name, and not creating an alias)
We have (after several weeks of testing in all kind of environments) send out a new version of our application to several of our customers. Within days problems where drippin in; After looking for the problem on various customer situations we found a problem which I think is rather disturbing and very odd. I'll describe the situation, on which we finally managed to recreate the problem, here.
In my problem I use the following configuration:
Windows 2003 (standard edition) AD network with 2 domain controllers, multiple Windows XP workstations, some without SQL instances, some with SQL 2000 instances, some with SQL 2005 instances and even one with SQL 7 running. All run a 32 bit OS.
Tools to reproduce:
ListSQLSvr application (found on SQLDev.net) to enumerate the instances.
Problem description: -------------------------------------------------- I am running the machine called DEV001, which has SQL 2000 (instancename DRUMIS) and SQL 7.0 (has no instancename so this is the root instance) installed.
In any 'normal' situation all the runnings SQL instances are visible on the network like this:
Notice that the browser service might be off on DEV002, you can still see the EXPRESS instance and a new root instance has appeared (though it doesn't exist!)??
After restarting the Browser service all is OK again.
When I turn on Hide Server in the SQL 2000 TCP/IP properties (or turn it on in the registry [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftMicrosoft SQL ServerDRUMISMSSQLServerSuperSocketNetLibTcp] "TcpHideFlag"=dword:00000001) on the DEV002 computer something real scary is happening.. The list looks as follows:
When someone has entered a database (for example the backoffice database on INSADBACKOFFICEEXACT) the list looks as follows (for a short moment; 5 secs or so):
Notice now that ALL instances are gone and no extended information is available. In the Query Analyser and in the SQL Management Studio when browsing you'll see this as well! When someone is accessing a database instance it appears for a few seconds again.
Since our installation and applications rely on selecting a existing instance it will fail in the above situations (or at least not showing all available instances).
In my opinion this is a bug somewhere! Note that even when the SQL Services are stopped on DEV002 (leaving the Browser service running) it still seems to block out ALL instance on the ENTIRE network!
I don't mind that one INSTANCE or even the entire MACHINE is hidden from the network, but ALL instances on ALL machines??
And the SQL Browser issue also worries me a bit since it does not stop the possibily to browse the SQL instances; it removes the SQL2000 instances but adds a root instance which doesn't even exist! Also the extended info is stripped.
Can anyone help me solve this/advise?
Also mind that in any situation there might run a lot of computers with a lot of SQL instances and I cannot tell our customers to find which machine has the SQL TCP/IP properties set to Hide... It even seems that in some situations SBS 2003 does the hiding automatically on Install? And if so, when and why?

Hi, I am trying to create a connection string that will connect to a SQL Server 2005 Registration on a remote machine. I have a SQL Server 2000 registration (installed) on the same machine and so I think there may be a conflict. The SQL 2005 registration is denoted as HARDYSQL5 and the 2000 registration is merely HARDY (the machine name). I need to connect to a database on the HARDYSQL5 registration but I am not connecting. I have tried various connection strings but none have worked. I get a Login failure. I think this is red herring because I doubt its even finding the database.I can connect to the 2000 db with:"Server=HARDY;Database=Perimeter;UID=use;pwd=example;" But its fails with the following, for example:"Server=HARDYSQL5;Database=Perimeter;UID=use;pwd=example;" "Server=HARDYSQL5;Database=HARDYSQL5Perimeter;UID=use;pwd=example;" "Server=HARDY;Database=SQL5Perimeter;UID=use;pwd=example;" I'm gon go nuts. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.
Hi all, I'm about to download the VWD ASP.NET 2.0 with SQL Express 2005, but i currently have Visual studio.net 1.1 and SQL Server 2000 installed on my PC, XP Pro. Has anyone had problems with this or are they happy to run along side one another without over writing projects already created in the older versions? Thanks in advance. Allen
i have SQL Server 2000 running on my notebook for learning purposes. Is it possible to run SQL Server 2005 on the same notebook without using virtual machines?
I'd like to draw on your expertise on this topic. I've been browsing at many blogs/forums about installing SQL Server 2000 and 2005 on the same machine.
What I'd like to know is how does that work with Reporting Services? Your machine's IIS will need to work with Reporting Services 2000 and Reporting Services 2005. The RS 2005 requires .NET Framework 2.0 and RS 2000 requires .NET Framework 1.1. IIS can only support 1 version of the .NET Framework at a time.
I've got to install sql server 2000 and 2005 on our test computer (sql server 2000 is already installed). I've heard from the grapevine that trying to install 2005 with 2000 already installed can cause problems, and its difficult for sql 2000 and 2005 to co-exist on the same machine.
How can I get the 2000 and 2005 versions of SQL Server Reporting Servicesboth working on my development laptop ?????I have ASP.NET 1.1 and 2.0 installed on my laptop.I have Visual Studio 2003 and 2005 installed on my laptop.I have my default website configured for ASP.NET 2.0.I have the developer edition of SQL Server 2000 installed on my laptop asinstance RMK006 in the MSSQL folder.

I am using two different SQL server instances one is SQL server 2012 and SQL server 2008 r.
I am using SQL server 2012 but certainly i need to use the SQL server and unfortunately need to use same alias name as i have used for SQL server 2012 instance.
One more thing is that am using 1433 port for both SQL sever instances, but when am trying to connect to SQL server 2008 r2 using that alias, i am get connected to the SQL server 2012 database.
Hello, I have a project where I have to upgrade SQL 2000 to 2005. When we are upgrading we are going to move to new server so server name will change. Most of our applications have a hard coded connection string. Applications are developed with Classic ASP, .NET 1.1 and 2.0 as well. Now the question is what is the best way to do this? Changing all the connection string will be a very painful task as we have many applications. Can anyone suggest a way where we can achieve this without changing all the connection strings? Thanks in advance. Tareq
what are some of the issues that we might face while upgrading from SQl 2000 to SQl 2005? Actually I have to create upgrade plan for path from MS 2000 to MS 2005.
I would like to upgrade sql server 2000 to sql 2005. So Can I install the sql server 2005 on the same server where sql 2000 is already running and then use the database upgrade wizard. Or should I install the sql server 2005 on a different server.
I have a sql 2000/2005 side-by-side install on a single server. I right-click a sql 2000 database, select All Tasks, and the Copy Database to upgrade a sql 2000 database. In the "Copy Database Wizard" I see the message:
"To use the detach and attach method SQL Server Agent must run under an Integration Servicers Proxy account that can access the file system of both the source and destination servers."
1. What does that mean?
2. I decided to click "Finish" in the wizard, and the database copy seemed to work fine. Whaterver 1) means does, by default, the SQL Server Agent already run under this "Integration Services Proxy" account. (Rememberr the upgrade process did work).
Looking for some type of solution on this issue. I'm going from SQL2000 to SQL2005 and I run the upgrade advisory tool and all and I'm going through the procedures of getting our SQL server updated to SQL2005, when I attempt to run that analyzer to take a look at how well the migration will go. I get a timed out error message on the fallowing.
Exact error message and its always the same for each entry. "Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding"
Any help in this are would be greatly appreciated, all other issues have been resolved I'm just stuck on this and I don't want to upgrade until the advisory tool gives me the ok to.....
I am in the beginning of upgrading a SQL 2000 DB on a Small business server to a 64 bit 2005 DB on a new box. Is my best method of upgrading to use the "copy" DB function in 2005? If so, what do I need to do to install the management tools on the 2000 box - since this is a 32 bit edition, and I have the 64 bit media?
I got a requirement to upgrade only One SQL 2000 to SQL 2005 server. i did check that there are only databases in this server along with Linked server. I am looking for a best practice document for SQL upgrade and any thoughts or experience any one has faced during upgrade.
Other question is what about if there is a DTS on the server. right now on this particular server there is no DTS but in coming weeks i may need to upgrade other server which is having DTS as well. I have worked alot on SSIS packages but want to see if DTS will be converted to SSIS packages or i will have to manually do it.
We have 2 .net 1.1 applications using Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition. To connect to database we are using nHibernate 0.6 for one application and Microsoft Enterprise Library Data Blocks Ver 1.0 in another. We are planning to upgrade SQL servers of both applications to SQL 2005 Enterprise edition and retain .net 1.1 framework. Are nHibernate 0.6 and Microsoft Enterprise Library 1.0 data blocks compatible with the SQL 2005? Are any upgrades required for these as well? We ran SQL upgrade advisor report on these applications, there weren't any changes to table/ stored procs suggested. Could that mean that the existing table design and stored procs are compatible with SQL 2005?
