Hi,
At the SQL Server cluster installation time I haven't choose the replication component(wasn't required at that time). Now it is and when I run again the setup to modify the installation and to add the replication components it doesn't give me that option.
The only option that I have is to uninstall the SQL Server.
Is it what is suppose to be? If yes how can I install the replication components?
Cata,
replication isn't enabled from the setup. If you use EM, and go to tools,
replication, configure publishing... you can set it up there.
Regards,
Paul Ibison
|||Thanks for your replay.
At the setup time when you install the SQL Server one is
asked if he wants to install the Replication components -
so there are some components that have to be installed. I
haven't choose that option.
Additionally when I am choosing to configure replication
EM - Tools - Cofigure Publishing, I get the message "The
Replication components were not included when SQL Server
was installed on <server>"

u'll have to break the cluster then add the components, but I'll have a look.

Install question
I installed SQL2005 (Standard Edition - 32 bit) for the 1st time and it
seemed to install fine. However, I wasn't prompted for licensing info (per
processor or per
seat) as SQL2000 does. Did I miss an option somewhere? The licensetype is
now disabled and numlicenses is now null.
Also unlike the SQL2000 install, I didn't see where you have the option to
put the database files (for master, msdb) should you not want them under
C:\program files.
Thanks for any help.

Sounds like you installed an MSDN version, in which case, licensing is
disabled. MSDN versions are for testing and development, and processor/CAL
licensing becomes irrelevant. You should not be running the MSDN version of
SQL Server on a machine where licensing is a concern.

That option is there, it's just not front and center... it's in one of the
options tabs where you breakdown all of the installable features.

Does it say "Not for resale" or "Not for Retail" or "NFR" or "Not for OEM
Distribution" anywhere on the disc?
There are a few obscure cases where licensing becomes disabled, but 99% of
the time it's because it's an intentionall crippled edition.
A
|||Yes, it does show "Not for OEM or retail distribution" in the smaller print.
Should I be using another version?

I am not sure what you are using it for, if you require licensing, what your
compliance status is, whether it's personal or company, etc. If you are
using this for production then yes you should have official licenses I am
sure.
|||I'm told we have Volume Licensing and the CDs were not MSDN. I uninstalled
sql2005 and downloaded the SQL2005 standard edition via the MVLS website. I
installed that version and still no prompt for licensing (asking for per
processor or per seat).
The licensetype is disabled and numlicenses is null.
As this will eventually be a production server so I'm concerned that all
will be well. Since I'm convinced we are properly licensed, should I be
concerned as to the values in the server property setting?
Thanks again.

|||SQL Server 2005 no longer tracks license information. The thinking at the
time this decision was made was that since license restrictions never were
enforced, eliminating the license information would reduce the number of
support calls generated when someone entered the wrong data or wanted to
switch license types. The license information columns weren't removed from
the system tables to keep from breaking applications that depend on them -
that's the normal deprecation policy - so they are still there but contain
no useful information. Now SQL works like most other MS server products -
the license is only a paper document that you need to have if you get
audited.
