I'm running SQL Server 7.0. I have a DB running with 6.5 compatibility mode.
Do INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE queries use row level locking in this DB ?
(I know if I set the db compatibility mode to 7.0 row level locking will be enabled)
Thanks in advance for your help.
Hallo Everyone,
I have an SQL database that I need to detach from an SQL2005 server and reattach to an SQL 2000 database. I tried to set the Compatibility level from SQL Server 2005 (90) to SQL Server 2000 (80). This did not work
Any ideas?

Hello All,
I am in the process of upgrading my current database in SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005. I have finished my analysis using the upgrade advisor and have found a lot of SPs having upgrade related issues. From what I estimate I think it will take around 3-4 weeks to resolve all of those issues. I wanted a quicker way to upgrade my database since we have very little time for the final release. The main reason for upgrade to 2005 was use of new features like Database Mirroring and/or peer to peer replication alongwith the Partitioning features and the new T-SQL enhancements.
The question I wanted to ask was does the compatibility level 80 of SQL Server 2005 supports these new features.
From what I have read on the KB article at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/822400 is that mirroring is supported in any compatibility level, but there is no specific mention on the peer to peer thing.
Also when I personally tried using the New Partitioning Features of 2005 on the database having compatibility 80, it worked fine. Also other features like SQLCLR and TRY...CATCH works fine.
One thing I observed was that new T-SQL statements like PIVOT/UNPIVOT is not supported
It will be nice if someone can give out the entire list of features that will be supported in the compatibility Level 80 and also the list of the ones that are not supported.
Thanks in Advance,
Mitesh
Can you run SQL Server 2005 in SQL Server 2000 compatibility mode and still use it with Reporting Services 2005?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have just upgraded a test server from sql server 2008 sp3 to sql server 2014 inplace upgrade. The compatability level of master database has not upgraded.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI installed SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition. When i create a new database (using the "New Database" dialog) i cannot set the new database's compatibility level to "SQL Server 2005(90)" because this option is not in the "dropdown list". the only items shown are: "SQL Server 7.0(70)" and "SQL Server 2000(80)". I set the owner to "sa". How do i get "SQL Server 2005(90)" in my "compatibility level" drop down list? Is this an installation option that i missed? Thanks in advance for any assistance!

We have one table.We have updated the status for one column to 1 and we did not committed the transaction. Can we do an another update on another row.
In below example i am updating GEO_D and transaction is not committed. Now my requirement is we have to update other records (not Geo_D). If try to update GEo_D it should wait.

Hi Gurus,
I would like to know if I put the Compatibility Level in a SQL Server 2005 installation to 70 I can make afirmation that I have a full SQL Server 7.0. If the answer is "Yes" where I can find a documentation or a FAQ that explained this topic.
Has anyone changed compatibility level from 80 to 90? Did you have any problems?

View 5 Replies View RelatedHi there
We found interesting issue which is basically the app is being tested ok on SQL2005 by software vendor. Then we tested in our environment and we found it's not truly true. There are some compatibility issue on SQL syntax. Anyway ... the plan set the compatibility level back to 80 instead 90. Cause this thing for sure is working.
Now my question is do you know any other impacts that you know of if we are doing this setting (running SQLServer 2005 but the database set as 80)? I know that some inbuilt reporting only run 90 level but I can get around this. Performance or something? Is there any thing that I should to know?
Thanks
Having moved over to SQL 2k5, from SQL 7.0 we have now realised that the database's need to be set to comp level 9.0 before they are found in the maintence plan wizard, we currently still access the database using an Access 2000 front end, by changing the comp level will this cause us issues writing data, I'm sure it won't but want to make sure, I'm sure that the comp level just sets what options are available to use.
Thanks
We have some users who are nervous about our upgrading to SQL Server 7.0 even though we will use 6.5 compatibility mode initially while we work through 7.0 upgrade issues in the applications.
Has anyone had bad experiences with the 6.5 compatibility mode feature? Just how good is it?
Cheers

I have a Sql Server 2005 instance that was upgraded from 2000. The compatibility mode of master is still set to 80. Can I change this to 90?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI currently use MSDE and now I need to upgrade because we moved to 2005. The problem for me is teh compatibility mode. I need to change it to 80 (2000).
I also need to do it via command line because we have a base command line install for users.
We use it to attach databases and view information.
Is there a way to install SQL Express with a default mode of 80 (SQL 2000).

I have been migrating Databases from a SQL Server 7.0 Instance to a 2000 Instance. Basically the method I use is as follows:
a)Create a new Database on the Destination Server (same name as the Source) When I create the new Database on my destination server, the compatibility mode is '80' and the source is always '70'
b) do a 'revlogin' on the Source Server and use the output from that query to recreate the logins on the destination server
c) make sure that the default DB for the newly creates logins are correct and change them if necessary
d) Backup the DB on the Source Server and Restore it to the Destination Server.
e) Check login permissions and fix any orphaned users - usually I don't find any that need to be fixed, but I always check.
I've read BOL on Changing the compatibility mode on the Database... but I'm still unsure when I would have to do this and why???????????????? SHOULD I be changing the compatiblity mode from 80 to 70 when migrating Databases from 7.0 to 2000???? Any advice on moving DBs in this manner would be appreciated.
I have a 2005 database sitting on a 2012 server, we're looking to change its compatibility mode from 90 to 110 so we can avail of what 2012 offers.I did a migration project a couple years ago for SQL Server 2000 databases changing to 2008 R2 and we ran into loads of problems where we left most databases in compatibility mode 80 as these were application databases that the owners couldn't stand over in terms of deprecated code / features no longer in use in 2008 R2.
From what I can see with changing from 90 to 110, there doesn't seem to be as many issues but I just want to double check if there's a way to confirm this. I know upgrade advisor is a handy tool but will it pick up database specific issues as opposed to database server compatibility issues? URLs...I know UA won't cover all the bases but it would look good when attached to the report I'm submitting recommending the change.
On my current contract we have a SQL 2005 box with a user database and the tempdb database in 6.5 compatibility mode. I would like to remove the user database and change the tempdbs compatibility mode. When you try and use EM just about everything fails with errors about collation or syntax. From what I have found it could be related to the tempdb being in 6.5 compatibility mode but either way I would like to remove this old unused DB.
My question is after I remove the user DB and reset the tempdb compatibility mode what will or could break? I haven't been able to find much on what would change or what to look out for after the change is made. Has anyone else done this? If so what issues did you face.
Thanks

We upgraded from SQL 6.5 to 2000 (.384) and just look at this T-SQL and maybe somebody can tell me what's wrong.
sp_dbcmptlevel appetserv1,80
update articleentrepot set usagermodification = 'MANON' where idarticle = 1
Here is the result:
Cannot use the column prefix 'E'. This must match the object in the UPDATE clause 'ArticleEntrepot'.
When I put the compatibility level to 65, it's works. But my problem is that I need to have the compatibility level to 80 because of the DataMirror replication software and if I do that, my house application doesn't work. I really don't know what to do, I'm in a deadlock. Can you help me!

Hi!
After upgrading SQL Server from 6.5 to 7.0 my production database compatibility level is "65".
I checked that by executing sp_dbcmptlevel <database_name>.
I can change it to "70" but my question is how it's going to affect the application and do I have to change it?
Thank you

I have a problem where I have a software application that
needed to be updated to a newer version. In order for the
new version to work I needed to upgrade my SQL Server 7
database to SQL Server 2000. The upgrade went fine for
SQL Server 2000 and also with the application. The only
problem now is that the compatibility level for the
databases stays at 70. Even when I change the
compatibility level to 80 it will automatically go back to
80. What is wrong? Please help.
I installed SQL 7.0 on a test server a few days ago. I want to test an application that currently runs on SQL 6.5. I have run a test database through the upgrade wizard without errors. Is there any way to see the compatibility level that the db is running on. I know I can use the sp_dbcmptlevel procedure to make it run at the 6.5 level. I want to see if it is running at that level currently, or if it is at the 7.0 level.
Any help would be appreciated.
I installed SQL 2K5 (not upgrade from 2K) and just found that Master DB comp. level is 80. All other system DBs are 90.
1. How can I change master's to 90? Does the following work?
EXEC SP_DBCMPTLEVEL Master, 90;
go
2. Changing this, is there any possibility to impact my production?

Problem: I want to set compatibility_level only when it is greater than 110.
Solution: Select the compatibility level and if it is greater than 110, I alter database set compatibility level=110
ISSUE Irrespective of IF Exist statement the alter database statement is executed all the time.
Here is the sql statement
IF EXISTS (
SELECT * FROM sys.databases where compatibility_level >110 AND name='mydatabase'
)
BEGIN
ALTER DATABASE mydatabase SET COMPATIBILITY_LEVEL = 110
END
What is that I am missing here ?
Does anyone know why Master is still at Compatibility Level 80 after an upgrade from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005?

I'd heard that upgrading SQL 05 to SP2 forced any databases at SQL 2000 compatibility (80) to SQL 2005 compatibility, but I can't find any documentation that says one way or the other.
Can anyone provide insight as to whether or not this is true?
Thanks,

We recently upgraded out SQL version from SQL2008R2 to SQL2014. As such, the compatibility mode changed to SQL2104 (120).
We have several queries that used to run fine that now take forever to bring back results. There are no errors (which surprised me). They just take way too long now. PLus they seem to be causing high I/O and CPU.
If I change the compt level back to SQL2008 - these queries run fine.
QUERY with SQL2008 compt level - finished in 2 minutes.
QUERY with SQL2014 compt level - finishes in 3 hours 22 minutes.
same exact query - same server - only thing changed was compatibility level.
WHat do I look for in the queries that could be causing this? (they look fine but obviously I'm missing something here)..
Hi,
I've been scouring the forums and the web for anything that would substantiate an argument for database application developers to keep developing in SQL 8.0 when we have migrated to SQL 2005.
I read somewhere that compatibility 8.0 mode is an intern stepping stone for migrating from 8 to 9, but it seems 2005 will handle and run compat 8.0 databases just fine.
So am finding it really diffucult to substantiate my argument against running 2005 with all databases in compatibility 8 mode indefinitly.
Any suggestions or links that could help me with this.
Joe
