Upgrade SQL server 2008 R2 Enterprise to SQL server 2008 SP1 Standard x64 - issue

November 19, 2013, 1:20 am

Hello,

I had a trial SQL server database running SQL Server 2008 R2 enterprise edition. The trial expired and I have a SQL server 2008 SP1 standard edition with a key. So, I wanted to upgrade from the trial product to the new one: it's working and into the SQL installation logs, there is no error or failed status.

But I'm unable to recover the database of Dynamics CRM 2011 (not a productive environment, it's just for testing purposes). I cannot browse this database with Management Studio and get this error into logs: Database 'xxx'_MSCRM' cannot be started because some of the database functionality is not available in the current edition of SQL Server.

What should I do? Could it be a Dynamics CRM 2011 related error as this edition of SQL server should be compatible with Dynamics CRM 2011 or is it related to the edition I upgraded to?

Thank you

SQL Server 2012 Standalone Setup

Hi,

I'm setting up two new SQL 2012 SP1 Standart Edition on two brand new VM's.

Setup goes smoothly until I select all the components and then I press Next.  The setup seems freezes showing "Please Wait":

Looking at the setup log I'm finding a error that never seen before and that I'm not able to find any valid references on the internet:

Can anyone give me any hint on this ?

Need link and compatibility check

I need a link to the evaluation edition of sql server 2008 R2 Standard edition. We currently use SQL server 2008 r2 express, but need to know if upgrading editions will solve our issues the way we need them to be. If so, then we will buy it! For now though we'd like to try the evaluation of the sql server 2008 r2 standard edition. I can't find a link for this download anywhere, maybe you could provide me with a 180 day serial or so? Then we could just buy the product from you if it works? I found this, but this is not what I need, for one, I need 2008 R2 not just 2008 and I also dont need enterprise, I just need the standard. Please don't refer me to 2012 editions, because I can't afford those types of prices at the moment even if we loved them, now 2008 r2 standard edition I will have enough for if the trial fairs well. Someone please help!

Deploy SQL Management Studio 2012 through SCCM

Hello,

Has anyone successfully deployed SQL Management Studio 2012 with SCCM?

A couple of specific questions:

- Which folder from the SQL Media is required to ensure that only Management Studio deploys (we would like to limit the size of the deployment Package)?

- What command line options do we need to use to install the Advanced version of Management Studio with all of the Tools and Books Online.  I have found the following but there is not a clear distinction about what is required and what is optional: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms144259.aspx

- Can someone confirm the following command line options for machine that has 2008 R2 Management Studio on it?
Setup.exe /q /ACTION=upgrade /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS /FEATURES=Tools

- Can someone confirm the following command line options for a new installation of 2012 Management Studio?
Setup.exe /q /ACTION=Install /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS /FEATURES=Tools

- Do I need to use /PID for the product key if I am only installing Management Studio?

Thank you,

Matt

Licensing Question

November 19, 2013, 2:09 pm

0

We will soon be upgrading a vendor's application which is currently running on SQL 2000.  At present, the application is only supported on SQL server 2008 R2.  I'm assuming that SQL 2008 R2 volume licensing is no longer available, and that we will need to purchase SQL 2012 and then use downgrade rights.

Our scenario:  Currently we have a single SQL 2000 server on a single network serving an application to about 40 workstations. In addition, there is a public facing website that connects to the database back end. Thus we are using the SQL per processor licensing. Nice and simple.

Upgrade scenario:  Small Business Server 2011 with premium add on (PAO) license gives us a license to use SQL 2008 R2, but with the public facing website in the mix, I believe the existing PAO license will not work - unknown number of CALs required. The version of SQL 2008 R2 included in the PAO is "Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 for Small Business" which is actually "Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard".  We plan on running the SQL server (2008 r2) inside an Intel based Hyper-v host.

Here is what makes sense to me: (Assuming that I must follow the 2012 licensing even though downgrading to 2008)

Server with dual quad core Intel Xeons running Hyper-v 2012:

1) Production SQL Server VM with 4 virtual cores - Running SQL 2008 R2 standard - single instance, under an open license SQL 2012 4 core license.

2) Test and other uses SQL Server VM - Running the PAO license of 2008 R2 - no connection to the public facing web server.

3) Another standby Hyper-v server with similar processors setup for migrating VMs when needed.

Under this scenario I would only need to purchase 4 core license. (Two core packs)

Does this seem a workable solution?  Would I be legal?

Thanks for reading this lengthy post

Filegroups and Storage

November 19, 2013, 2:07 pm

Hi,

I have upto 10 databases running on a single SQL Server instance on a single server.

I have read about best practice for storage and concluded the following...

1) Transaction Log on own RAID array (Raid 10) or at least on own physical disk
2) Data files(secondary filegroup) on own disk array (Raid 10 or 5)
3) Indexes on own filegroup (Raid 5)
4) Primary on Raid 1 or 5 (only system dbs)
5) Tempdb on Raid 5 or 10

So each of the above will be on separate physical disks?

Should I then have a separate disk for each secondary filegroup of each database? Or can they reside on the same disk?
How would this impact on performance?

And similar again with each Primary filegroup - should each one be on its own disk? In this case 10 separate disks for each primary filegroup?

Thanks!

Hello a 2 node active/passive cluster has already been setup for me & about to install SQL Server 2008 onto the active node.  But when I click on the 'Validate this cluster...' in FailOver Cluster Manager the following Storage error displays...

List Potential Cluster Disks


    List disks visible to two or more nodes that will be validated for
    cluster compatibility. Online clustered disks will be excluded.
    Disk with id a3fb6a27 is only visible from one node. This disk
    is not eligible for cluster validation.
    Disk with id a3fb6a2f is only visible from one node. This disk
    is not eligible for cluster validation.
    Disk with id a4758624 is only visible from one node. This disk
    is not eligible for cluster validation.

    Disk with id a4758623 is only visible from one node. This disk
    is not eligible for cluster validation.

    The wrong diskette is in the drive.
    Insert %2 (Volume Serial
    Number: %3) into drive %1

    ...do I still need to run this 'Validate this cluster...' & need to address this Storage error or can this be ignored and is ready for me to install SQL 2008 cluster?  Thanks in advance.
