I have one cluster (two machines) of sql server 2005 active/passive called "ClustA" with one Ent. server edition license and another separate server called "STDA" as warm standby server for "ClustA".
Do I need SQL Server license for server "STDA"?
Thanks
I have been asked to implement a Warm Standby using Transaction Logs on our main SQL Database - Version 6.5.
Can anyone give assistance regarding scripts, etc., which control the process.
Any assistance is much appreciated.
Regards,
Ian
We are planning to provide a disaster recovery facility for a production system. Clustering has been ruled out for technical reasons so we are considering either transactional replication or Log shipping.
Microsoft suggested the log shipping option but it seems a bit messy to me and only provides a warm standby in that it only copies log backups to the secondary machine.
Any ideas why log shipping was suggested in preference to transactional replication? Anyone have any experience in this area?
TIA Colin.
I have inherited a problem that I am hoping someone can help out with. A developer used a perl script to move some backup files from one server to another and then restore the databases on other server (at least we think that is what happened, no one is really sure at this point)
Now I need to take the databases ourt of read only mode and drop them but I get an error 5063 stating that the database is in warm standby and the alter database and sp_dboption statements both fail.
How do I get the databases out of warm standby mode?
Thanks in advance for any help you all can provide.

Hi,
I have one database with read-only status. I tried to change it back to normal by doing this..
EXEC sp_dboption 'test', 'read only', 'FALSE' by doing this i'm getting this
Changes to the state or options of database 'test' cannot be made at this time. The database is in single-user mode, and a user is currently connected to it.
And when i tried on Enterprise Manager it is saying
Error 5063 database 'test' is in warm Standby.
I cross checked and confirmed that it is not in single-user mode and no one is connected to the database!!
Any help is greately appreciated.
thanks

I have a VERY Legitmate use to install sql 4 workgroups on a pc without licensing it. I am making a disk image for MANY pcs to be imaged and load licensing after the imaging is completed.
I have been able to do this with Windows XP Professional, MS Office 2003 and a couple non-Ms programs. The information for MS software even came from their KB, so I know what I am doing is legit. I just can't find any information on doing this for my sql app.
Any suggestions??

Hi,
We have a .NET Remoting application whose "server instance" connects to SQL Server Express and send data via remoting to its client application. There is no need for other direct access to SQL Server except for the "server instance". Now my software vender advices us to upgrade to SQL Server WorkGroup edition and now we are facing the question which license to buy. Could you advice us?

Hi
I would like to setup about 20 websites (each with database search engines) and would like to use SQL Server 2005. This setup will be run by myself (i.e. single user)
I'm a little confused about which license I need. Do I go for the $23k full version or free license (Express) or something in between??
Could someone please advise. Would be happy to submit further details if required
Many thanks

I've been reading a million and one posts on replication
My scenario is that i have a live SQL 2000 server. In a DR invokation, i'e i've lost my live sever, i want to be able to access the same data at the DR (SQL 2000) site and have it accessable to the users. DR server has a different name to the live box.

CRMDatabase
Data changes all the time but can have hourly replication of transaction logs for this example. I've currently researched a sp called update logons but this has to be fed each account name to enable them on the new server. There must be a way to activate all CRMDatabase logons with the new server?
Could someone be kind enough to lead me through a step by step guide on the best solution.
Thanks a lot

The wrong Cd set was used to install Sql Server 2005 enterprise edition.
I need to ensure the license for Sql server is the license from the other CD.
is there a way to switch the license without un-installing SQL Server?
Hi,
I need to install Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition 64-bit running on Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard Edition 64-bit. Instead of installing it on every single machine I thought of installing it on one of them, updating it with all the necessary updates, creating a ghost image of the updated system and database and copying the image on all the other machines.
After doing it I however need to update both the system and SQL Server license keys. And there comes my question whether one can change the SQL Server license key after the installation??
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I have a customer, Customer who has purchased SQL Server Standard Edition 2005 via Open License Agreement. The product key is not available with the media.
I checked with eOpen team and confirmed that SQL 2005 does not require product key or Volume License Key for installation.
however, according to the VKB article 331355 titled "eOpen License Web Site" under "Exceptions" it is mentioned as:
SQL Server: The product key is distributed with the media. If the customer did not get a product key with the media, refer them to their reseller. The product key is hidden between two shrink-wrapped CDs.
Need your clarification on this,
How should we provide the key to the customer.
Thanks,

Hello, everyone:
I am making disaster recovery plan and considering technical details. My question is that if I configure log shipping and primary server is failed. I have to bring up secondery server online. As warm standby server, the secondary server is Read-only. How to disable read-only?
Thanks

Because the IIS threads are recycled at night, the first user that calls up Report Manager in the morning has to wait 30 seconds before the page loads, as IIS is creating a thread.
I'd like to set up a job in SQL Agent that will navigate to http://localhost/reports/ every morning before users come in to work, so they won't have to wait.
I think a SAL Agent job of type ActiveX Script would be suitable for this, so I need to write the code to navigate to the reports page in VBScript.
Anyone knows how to navigate to a page in VBScript ?

I have one standby server that I use for multiple production DB SQL Server 2000 servers. We are upgrading one of the production SQL Servers to 2005. I will install 2005 on my standby and run 2000 and 2005 side by side.
Is this okay? Are there any caveats specific to running 2000 and 2005 on the same standby server?
Thanks!

HI,

Simple question. I have a client that needs SQL 2005 Standard installed NOW, and cannot wait for media to arrive. I know I can download the 180 trial of SQL 2005 Enterprise, but can it be licensed as Standard when we purchase?

Hi,
The standby file (.tuf file) got deleted accidentally on the secondary. How can I recover the database without the standby file?
If I buy MS SQL 2005 Standard edition and install on my production machine, can I later uninstall it and then install it again on ANOTHER MACHINE? (so only one copy is used)

What exactly does a standard SQL 2005 license cover? I want to have 3 client stations entering data, one IIS serving up data to an unknown number of persons via a web page. Under the 1 server 5 CAL package would this setup be covered? or will I have to go the processor route? I might add that the user accessing via the web service would be on an intranet behind a firewall.
Thanks in advance!
Hello All,
I want to change from cal user license to processor license in sql 2005. How do I do this? Do I need to reinstall sql? Assuming I need to reinstall, will my settings be gone?
Sorry, I'm new to sql. Thank you!
