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?

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.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am looking for a listing of the versions of SQL that correspond to the Service Pack level.. Example..
6.50.??? SP1
6.50.??? sp2
6.50.??? sp3
6.50.??? sp4
I have been looking all around and can`t find this info. At one time I did have this information and I misplaced it..
Thanks
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.
Hi All,
I have MSX/TSX running on our SQL Servers here and need to service pack our servers.

Cheers,

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 4 Replies View RelatedI 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!"

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,

I 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.

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 ?
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!
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.
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?

View 3 Replies View Related 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.?

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.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI need some help devising my tables.
I have a company table and a address table. I have created a linked table with two foreign keys from the company table and the address table respectively.
This set up allows me to apply more than one address per company which is fine. My problem is that I need a way to prevent a company from entering exactly the same address twice.
In the address table i have the following fields:
AddressKey - PK
CompanyKey - FK
Address 1 - 3
Town
County
Country
PostCode
In the company table I have the following fields.
CompanyKey - PK
FirstName
Secondname
And finally in the link table I have the following:
CompanyKey - FK
AddressKey - FK.
Now, if i entered the following into the address table Assuming that company id of 1 was already entered into the company table.
AddressKey - 1, CompanyKey = 1, Address1 = 11 Address2= Taylor
I need a way of preventing this from happening.
AddressKey - 2, CompanyKey = 1, Address1 = 11 Address2= Taylor
As can be seen the PK - FK values are unique and are correct for referential integrity, but the actual address is the same.
Any help we be mostly appreciated.

Dear All,How to store a separated company-calendar for each client-company (about500).Company-calendar: workingdays, non-workingdays, meetings, etc.Thanks,Filips
View 1 Replies View RelatedWe deal with multiple vendors who provide us information via text/xml files. Vendor A may provide financial data, vendor b provides litigation data, vendor c provides ratings data. Our current structure has databases for each vendor with its own company table which basically makes all this data disconnected. Of course each vendor has its own proprietary company id to make records unique.
All of the data is based on companies so the grain of data would be at a company level. I would like to be able to link this information together by creating a dimensional model that has a single company table (DimCompany) and has facts populated based on the type of data we receive. Would this be the right sequence of events?
1. My initial load (historical) would have to look at all these data sources and create one company record in my DimCompany table. This table would then link to all other fact tables to provide a single view of company info. I would imagine this would have to be a fuzzy lookup since one company will be in all sources.
2. On subsequent loads (incremental) I would probably have to do a lookup of companies in the dimension via the proprietary code and add if the company wasn't there.
Any advice on tackling this issue would be greatly appreciated especially if SSIS was used in the process.
I'm developing an application that needs to handle several companies data one at a time.
I have a database called ROOT with the common tables like companies, users, etc. and all the stored procedures that I need.
Then I have a unique database per company containing all their info.
How can I apply the stored procedures that I have on database ROOT to the tables on each company's databases ?
The TSQL USE command do not accept variables.

I have a database that allows a client to have multiple addresses, could be a home, business, vacation, etc... I'm trying to deside if I should put the Company Name and Title fileds in the tblClientAddresses table or keep it with the tblClient table. We do mailings to clients and if the mail is going to a home address the company and title should be excluded. If I put them in the tblClients table I really have no way of knowing if we are mailing to a home or a company. If i put the company and title with the address it makes sence that this would solve the issue.
Looking for any thoughts or suggestions?

My Name is Nick Soutter, I am the owner of a small game company, Aepox Games(We're in the middle of a name change from "Lamar Games"),www.lamargames.net.Our first commercial game, Andromeda Online (www.andromedaonline.net) isgoing into beta soon. It runs on an evaluation edition of SQL Server 2000(our intention is, when it launches, we earn the money to buy a copy beforethe evaluation expires).We have been testing Andromeda Online, and found that saves to the databasetake about 10 seconds (we were anticipating less than 1). We felt we needsomebody experienced in optimizing sql databases to help us optimize thedatabase, and get it running in the best method for our particularapplication.Our program accesses the database in Java, and people with understanding inhow to optimize java connections would be a tremendous help.My company is small, and we honestly cant afford much. Everybody on thisproject, from the sound guys to the graphic artist, has worked for 1/10 to1/100 of the value of the job. We're simply a starting company looking fordedicated people who are willing to work more for credit than money.We can offer credit on our website(http://www.andromedaonline.net/credits.html) to anybody who helps us, butlittle more (maybe $100, but we're very over budget, and in desperate needof help). Because of how we intend the game to run (with maybe 100-200concurrent games running online), a 10 second save time is simplyunacceptable.Anybody who would be willing to help us, please send a resume toJoin Bytes!. Experience would be nice, but not a requirement.We're looking for someone who can talk with our programmer about the typesof calls made to our SQL database, and then can log into the DB and optimizeit to run as fast as possible considering our specific needs.Thank you for your time.Nick SoutterAepox (Lamar) Games
