Upgrading to SQL 2005 from 2000?

I have a very large database in 2000 and I'm thinking of
requesting that
it be moved to 2005. I've heard that 2005 is faster and I've
seen the
interface for it and it looks like it combines Query analyzer
with the
standard interface tools. Enterprise Manager is just so
limited and clunky.
Do you think I'd run into problems with my site if I had them
update to
a new SQL database? Any pitfalls? Warnings? What should I
look out for?
Is it worth it for the new security and interface features?
Thanks

I would say wait a short while longer and upgrade to SQL
Server 2008. It
seems pointless going through the upgrade now when the next
version is
already on our doorstep.
A word of warning. There is no downgrade option once you have
upgraded so
run the built in Upgrade Advisor before you do anything (if
you have that
option) and also check that all your T-SQL code is ANSI
compliant as
non-ANSI compliant code will not work in SQL 2005 or 2008.
See:
http://www.sql-server-performance.com/faq/query_uses_nonansi_outerjoin_p1.aspx
for more info.
Also, remember that you will not have the option of
scheduling any DTS
packages from 2000 as these will need to be re-built as SSIS
packages if you
want them to run them as Jobs, although you can still execute
them manually
(if that is a feasible option) with the assistance of the DTS
add-on that is
a free download from Microsoft.
Just be very careful that all is in place before you upgrade
and make sure
you take a full database backup before you upgrade (including
system DB's)
in case you need to re-install 2000 and rebuild the
databases.

Upgrading sql 2005 from sp to sp 3

hi all
i have a question. i need to upgrade my sql 2005 from sp 2 to sp 3 on my live environment because windows7 needs sp3. would there be any issues if i upgrade to sp3?
i just download sp3 into my server and run it?

Hi Prem,
Windows7 is not officially supported yet. If you have issue, it must be related to windows7. SP3 should not be an issue.

Restoration at sql 2005 from sql 2000 backup.

Hi experts,
Is it possible to restore a backup taken from sql 2000 database to sql 2005 database?
And how about attaching datafiles of sql2000 into sql 2005 server?

Yes its possible.

Same method of attach/deattach.
But recommanded you first install 2000 instance restore database and do inplace sql 2005 upgrade.

Upgrade MS SQL 2005 to MS SQL 2008 (R2) for High-Availability SAP ERP System

Hi,
We are having ECC 6.0 SR3 Hight-Availability system on windows cluster environment.
Our platform is Windows Server 2008 SR2 with MS SQL Server 2005 SR3. We have two nodes in our windows cluster. Active-passive nodes.
Node-1 is having CI, ASCS, ERS & DATABASE
Node-2 is having DI, ERS & stand-by database software.
I've check all the pre-requisites for sql upgrade.
our kernel is on 700_Rel. I'm planning to stabilize the kernel with 721_Rel before Database upgrade.
Support package patch level condition is met for sql upgrade in our scenario.
Now we are planning to upgrade our MS SQL Server from 2005 sr3 to MS SQL Server 2008r2.
Please provide me the steps for Kernel upgrade and sql upgrade to 2008r2 on Windows cluster environment.
Thanks
Venkat

Hi Venkat
1. Could you share your ECC support package level & also you can check the PAM
2. Yes you can upgrade the MS Sql to 2008 R2, before starting upgrade Kindly ensure the full OS / DB level backup on both cluster node's
3. MS Sql 2008 R2 upgrade refer the SAP Note
1152240 - Setting Up Microsoft SQL Server 2008 (R2)
4. For Kernel upgrade its release change kindly go thru the SAP Notes
1713986 - Installation of kernel 721 (EXT)

Migrate SQL 2005 from windows 2005 server to Windows 2008 R2 server

Hi all,
I need to move our SQL 2005 on a windows 2003 server to a new server with Windows 2008 R2 installed. Could someone show me what are the necessary steps I need to do?
Thank you.

Hey TR,
As per Microsoft recommendation, Before Installing new server try to run Upgrade Advisor and follow these steps
1. Take Full backups of all System and Application databases on your 2005 machine.
2. Script all logins --
3. Script all jobs
4. List out all Maintenance plans and their schedules -- You cant migrate so you have to create them manually
5. List out all Linked server(s) currently being used.
6. Check the service pack
7. Check the Edition
8. document the existing server settings so that it should match the same (collation,version,...)
Migration process
1. Migrate logins
2. Restore all App databases
3. Fix the orphan users
4. create the jobs
5. create maintenance plans
6. create Linked Servers
7. perform checkdb on all databases
8. rebuild indexes
9. update the statistics
10.move all the DTS / SSIS packages
11. Point the application to new server
12. Testing .... Change all the application connection string to new server and then start the testing then finally if everything looks good then you can down the sql 2000 server and start using new server.

Connecting to SQL 2005 from Oracle error

I have an Oracle Database and SQL Database on the same server and wants to use odbc to connect to the SQL 2005 database and query tables of my choice.
I did configured the ODBC correctly and called the DSN TSH_ARCHIVE. I have tested it and it works great. But each time I run the following query I get error:
SQL> select count(*) from BALANCES_HS@tse_archive;
select count(*) from BALANCES_HS@tse_archive
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
Any suggestion and help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Thanks for the files.
There are some problems with the configuration.
listener.ora -
LISTENERTSE_ARCHIVE =
(ADDRESS_LIST=
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST = xxxxx.ita.doc.gov)(PORT=1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1521))

(PROGRAM=hsodbc)
(SID_DESC=
(SID_NAME=tpisdb06)
(ORACLE_HOME=J:\app\product\11.1.0\db_2)
This should be -
LISTENERTSE_ARCHIVE =
(ADDRESS_LIST=
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST = xxxxx.ita.doc.gov)(PORT=1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1521))
SID_LIST_LISTENERTSE_ARCHIVE =

(PROGRAM=dg4odbc)
(SID_DESC=
(SID_NAME=tpisdb06)
(ORACLE_HOME=J:\app\product\11.1.0\db_2)
The SID_LIST_LISTENER needs to match the actual listener name and the program for 11g DG4ODBC is called dg4odbc and not hsodbc.
tnsnames.ora -
TSE_ARCHIVE =
(DESCRIPTION=
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = TSE_ARCHIVE)(PORT=1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = TSE_ARCHIVE)
(HS=OK)
The HOST name - TSE_ARCHIVE does not match the HOST in the listener, so it should be -
TSE_ARCHIVE =
(DESCRIPTION=
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = xxxxx.ita.doc.gov)(PORT=1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = TSE_ARCHIVE)
(HS=OK)
I've changed the actual name to xxxxx so replace that with the name in the original file.
Change the files, stop and start the listener then try again.
If you still have an ora-12154 error then send the output from the following SQL -
select db_link, host from user_db_links; <=== as the user getting the error
and
select db_link, host from dba_db_links; <===== as a DBA user

Issue while Upgrading to SQL 2014 from 2012. " The specified Edition upgrade is not supported."

Hello Team
I am seeing this issue while I am trying to do an in-place upgrade from SQL Server 2012 to SQL 2014. Both being Enterprise Editions I am still seeing the below error message in the Feature Upgrade checks.
" The specified Edition upgrade is not supported"
Please let me know if anyone else has faced this issue and any workarounds? I am not doing "Edition Upgrade", just wanted to upgrade same edition of 2012 to 2014.
SQL Server details that is being upgrade:
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 (SP1) - 11.0.3368.0 (X64)
May 22 2013 17:10:44
Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation
Enterprise Edition: Core-based Licensing (64-bit) on Windows NT 6.2 <X64> (Build 9200: )
thanks

Hi Shanky_621
Thanks for the reply. Yes I was told that it is SQL 2014 Enterprise Edition. Is there a way to verify that? Also yes I did not select the free Evaluation or Express Editions.
Just run the setup you got for SQL server 2014 and you would reach to page where it would say enterprise or standard after that cancel the setup . Actually version number can be found from Mediainfo located in same folder where setup.exe is located but edition
cannot be found by that way.

Upgrading to SQL 2005

Hello,
I have a couple of questions regarding upgrading from sql server 2000 to sql server 2005.
I will have to do a side by side upgrade, so the sql server instance name will have to be different. How do I point the SAP B1 server tools (especially the license server) at the new database server instance?
Are there any pitfalls to watch out for in doing the upgrade.
I know the company database and the sbo-common have to be transferred, is there anything else?
Any and all suggestions and advice is greatly appreciated.
Jim

Hi Jim,
it's nothing special.
when you have the new sql instance on the same server its very easy:
you don't need to reinstall the server tools.
just install the new sql server as a new instance and copy sbocommon and companies to your new server.
correct the client settings with
Button "Change Server" in the "Choose Company" Window
and you're done
regards
David

Upgrade MS SQL 2005 platform to MS SQL 2008 - Update the JDBC driver...

Hello to all,
This is the second post that I created reporting this error because in the first one I open this message in group of "SAP on SQL Server" but without any kind of help from community:
My problem is...
I´m planning to do an upgrade of a sap system (SAP ECC 6.0) from SQL Server 2005 to a SQL Server 2008 but I´m facing with a little problem. This system has two stacks - ABAP + JAVA - and because of that the Upgrade Guide to MS SQL Server 2008 describe which are the requirements for this upgrade DB platform, and one of them is this:
"If you use a Java system, you have updated the JDBC driver as described in SAP Note 639702"
... the updated of JDBC driver when we have in system a Java part, like it has in this case! But I´m with a serious problems to find in SAP System Files in Windows 2003 Server the four files that is mentioned in that note 639702. I can´t find it anywhere... in note says:
Depending on the SAP release and the system configuration, the driver files base.jar, util.jar, sqlserver.jar, and spy.jar are available in an installed system at:
(NetWeaver'04, Java:) usrsap<SAP SID>JC<InstanceNumber>j2eejdbc
(NetWeaver'04, ABAP+Java:) usrsap<SAP SID>DVEBMGS<InstanceNumber>j2eejdbc
(NetWeaver 2004s:) usrsap<SAPSID>SYSexe<NUC|UC>Platformmssjdbc
But... still I didn´t find them! I also read other note 1109274 - New JDBC driver for NetWeaver 7.0 and higher but even so I still can´t find it!
Can you help me to find this files on my operation system? I have to update that JDBC... but of course for this task I have to find it first!!!
Best regards,
João Dimas - Portugal

Hi,
Have you considered the possibility that the directory that was supposed to contain the jdbc drivers has been replaced by a recent kernel upgrade and you never noticed?
Anyway, looking forward, put in a new set of JDBC drivers in the correct location.
Also, with reference to the following point from the first note:
Check your JDBC Driver version before you download it. To do this, unpack the attached check tool SAPCheckVersion in the relevant JDBC directory (refer to the previous paragraph). Then open a command prompt there and execute the following command:
SAPCheckVersion.cmd <server name> <username> <password>
Replace <server name> with the name of the database server, <username> and <password> with the logon data of an SQL user (for example, sa or SAP<SID>DB). If you call SAPCheckVersion.cmd without a parameter, the system displays detailed help. The tool supports both DataDirect and Microsoft drivers.
*The download name tells you which version of the driver you need to download from SAP Service Marketplace.*
Run this SAPCheckVersion and find out which drivers you need to download and then download them and use them.
Regards,
Shitij

Hello John Feely,
Yeah I already know that you mentioned! In my first post/previous message I mentioned that, I already read the note 639702 and it was there I read that explanation... regarding that creation that you refer in the case of files are not in those directories, so you said that I could download this four files and put in there... but where? and how..? Sorry but that solution seems does not make any sense!
I also look other systems with double stack ABAP + JAVA and I one more time I didn´t see that directories or files that are mentioned in that note!! DAMN!
Any tip?
Kind regards,

Migrating an old website to MS SQL 2005 from MS Access

use normal parentheses for your subquery and don't put a period after the closing one.

What is SQL 2000 mode in SQL 2005 Server?

I have a application which will work in SQL 2000 (literally). I am upgrading my SQL server to 2005 from 2000. I want to know how to make SQL 2005 to function as SQL 2000 so that my application will continu working with 2005 too..?
In other words where is the option as "Run this program in compatibility mode for" like we have in Windows?
I appreciate all your help.
Ping me in Yahoo IM : rajeshtheodore too

Which Oracle product? You've only mentioned two Microsoft products and an unnamed application so far.
In other words where is the option as "Run this program in compatibility mode for" like we have in Windows?Do you mean an option in this application that works on SQL Server, or an option in SQL Server 2005? Why would we know anything about either of those?

XL Reporter problem with SQL 2005

Hi,
We just migrated our SQL Server from 2000 to 2005. Everything seemed OK, until we tried to run XL Reporter addon. Our SQL 2005 is 64bit edition, and I heard the 64bit version has some problem with transferring data to Excel, for example.
has anybody had the some problem? How can we solve this?
Thanks.
Andre

Hi Andre,
Check this thread: Re: XLR - Terminal Server
It should be a problem if your PL is upgrade to new.
Thanks,
