SQL Server License Checker

Jul 23, 2005

Hi all,
I am performing a consolidation of all SQL servers in my environment. I
have run the tool to find out what level patching they have and what
edition they are running on, but is there a tool so I can scan the
network and find out what licensing they are setup for (processor vs.
seat)?

Even if I have to enumerate each one, one at a time I would be OK with
that. I just don't want to have to login to each server and go to
Control Panel and click on the Licensing.

Command line is super-duper.

Thanks,
Josh

SQL Server 2005 Workgroup Edition Licensing (How To Install Without A License, Then Require License On First Run)

Oct 13, 2006

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??

Respectfully,

Frustrated

SQL Server System Configuration Checker - Installation Error

Jan 3, 2007

hello,

I downloaded SQL Server 2005 from Microsoft's website and tried to install.

First I downloaded and installed filename "dotnetfx.exe" according to the install guide. Installed without any issues.

Then i tried to install filename: "SQLEXPR.exe"- the main SQL Server software- which I also downloaded from Microsoft. I get the error below and here is how i got it.

------------------
ERROR:
The SQL Server system configuration Checker cannot be executed due to WMI configuration on the machine YOUR-07NFK16HDF Error:2147749896(0x80041008)
--------------------

I clicked on the executable file SQLEXPR.exe, then,
after extracting the file,

after the end user license agreement...

the next screen says "installing prerequisites Microsoft SQL server 2005 setup support files, the required components were installed successfully"

then i hit "next", then I see the screen with message (below:

"system configuration check....SQL server setup is scannong your computers configuration".
During this process(system configuration check), this is when I get the error ERROR- above. The pop-up error screen has a help icon.

clicking on help gives me the info below and says i must send it across the internet

Link ID = 20476
Product Name = Microsoft SQL server
Product version = 9.00.2047.00
message source = setup.rll
messageID = 70342

the resulting information says that there is no such information about message source in the knowledge database.

-----
pls what is the problem. Is it with the downloaded file(I got it from Microsoft's SQL Server home page)...and pls what is the WMI configuration on my machine?

Im using a Toshiba Satellite Pro Laptop, WIn XP with SP2.

thanks

Also please tell me how to start individual database in singe used mode.

SQL Server Per Processor License

Jul 20, 2004

If I install an instance of SQL Server on a box with 4 processors but specify in the licensing part of the installation procedure that it's a '2 processor license', does that really mean that SQL Server will only use 2 of the 4 processors? I ask because, having done this, if I check the SQL Server instance's properties, on the Processors tab, there are 4 processors ticked - giving the impression that 4 processors are being used by this SQL Server instance. Can anyone throw some light on this?

Another question... If I wish to reconfigure the same SQL Server instance from a 2 to a 4 processor 'per processor' license, how can this be done?

SQL Server Express License Issue

Mar 16, 2008

I'm a .net developer creating applications that depends on SQL Server as a back end database engine.

I read about the features and pricing options of the different SQL Server 2005 editions here, I also read the SQL Server 2005 express EULA and knew that it's now alright to use it in commercial applications.

I use the SQL Server express engine only for the purpose of development and testing, is this use is lawful?

And if the answer is yes, what's the need for the "Developer Edition" mentioned in the page referenced above?

Can I Edit SDF Files Without Full SQL Server License?

Jun 11, 2007

I'm trying to open an SDF file. After many searches on the net, it appears that there are two ways to do this:



Open the file in VS 2005
Open the file in SQL Server Management StudioI don't have, and don't plan to purchase, a license to full SQL Server 2005. I do have Visual Studio 2005 Pro. When I open an SDF file in Visual Studio, I get the following (oh so informative) error:

The operation could not be completed. Unspecified error

Since I don't have full SQL server, I downloaded SQL Server Management Studio Express. There's one major problem: the Server type combo box is disabled in the "Connect to Server" dialog. Try as I might, I can find no mention anywhere as to why this is the case. I'm guessing that functionality isn't supported in the Express version of the tool, but as far as I can tell, nobody thinks it might perhaps be reasonable to document why this combo box is disabled. It certainly doesn't show up in the document that shows up when I click the help button on this dialog.

Could somebody at Microsoft please tell me if it is even possible to edit these files without buying a full SQL Server license? I'm trying to use SQL Server Compact Edition to replace legacy code that uses an MDB file (via ADO) for a desktop application. From everything I have read, this is the officially recommended thing to do. But if I now have to buy a full SQL Server lincense to accomplish what used to be a simple double click on an MDB file, then there's something seriously wrong.

SQL Server 2000 To SS05 - License Upgrade

Jan 21, 2008

Hi,

We have a product which uses SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition with Per Seat licensing option. Going forward with a new release of the product, we intend to upgrade to SQL Server 2005. Till now our product was being used in non web based scenarios so the Per Seat licensing option helped our case. In the upcoming release which would use SQL Server 2005 we need to break off from the non web based scenario as the product would use SQL Server over internet.
So isn't it correct to go for the Processor based licensing instead of the Per seat licensing ?

If so then what would be the ideal manner to upgrade the license from Per Seat (in SQL Server 2000) license type to Processor based (in SQL Server 2005) license type ?

I have heard of Software Assurance providing assistance in version upgrades. Would it help in case I need to upgrade from one license type to another ? Or is it applicable only in case of upgrade where the license type is fixed ?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Arun

Changing License Key In SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition 64-bit

Apr 28, 2008

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
