Hi
I have SQL Server 2014 Standard Edition- Per core and Windows server has two processor each with 10 cores- total 20 cores
SQL Server 2014 Standard Edition has limitation of using 16 cores.
Suppose if I install two SQL Server instances only on one Windows 2012 server having 20 cores so how can I come to know number of cores used by each SQL Server instances.
Regard,

Thanks in advance...

I've been reading some documentation from Microsoft regarding an AWESOME feature and noticed my clippings are "relatively" old. Microsoft came out with a document called "Patching SQL Server Failover Cluster Instances with Cluster-Aware Updating (CAU)" which basically states that using this awesome feature with a cluster with Always On is not supported.
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj907291.aspx
So... My questions:
Is that document is still correct on SQL Server 2012? Meaning, does a subsequent version fix this?
Does SQL Server 2014 solve this?
How about SQL Server 2016?
My shop is pretty consistently using Clusters with AO, so I'm dying to find a supportable way to do this.
Thanks,
Keith
I've been having a lot of trouble installing SQL Server 2012. This was a new install, no other versions of SQL Server were on the machine.
After several restarts, install attempts, and running the installer in Repair mode, Management Studio finally installed but there is no localhost. But it can connect and query to remote instances.
The installer will not create a local instance. When I try to connect to localhost or "." in SQL Management Studio, it fails and I get this error:
""

Can someone update this list of what all these products are in this feature pack. I'm trying to find the Data Mining Add-in for Excel but I'm not sure which file it is.

SQL Server Setup has encountered the following problem:
[Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Cannot update user instances.
Reason: Cannot start user instance 'FF9C0784-9B79-48' for update.
Error code: 0x3c0c..
To continue, correct the problem, and then run SQL Server Setup again.
Any idea what this means and how to fix it?
I ran below commands
SQLEXPR.exe /qb UPGRADE=SQL_Engine,SQL_Data_Files,Client_Components,Connectivity INSTANCENAME=MSSQLSERVER
and
SQLEXPR.exe /qb UPGRADE=SQL_Engine INSTANCENAME=MSSQLSERVER

Hello,
Here is the thing
I have 2 sql servers. each has ent instance with AG configured(servers in a cluster but instances are not) and several non clustered sql2008r2 instances.
I need to patch those 2008r2 instances. If I use the wizard I have an error rule:Cluster_IsOnlineIfClustered
To workaround this I extracted sql2008r2sp2 in a folder and ran
Setup /SkipRules=Cluster_IsOnlineIfClustered /action=patch
But it failed. I can't patch any instance. I would like to place log file here but it's to big.
How to find main error in this huge log ? Thanks
Hello
Currently we are evaluating a PureStorage solution.
This storage unit is connected using FC adapter.
Our SQL Server 2012 instance is set to use default network packets size 4K.
I read the FC packet size is 2048.
Would it change something to change the SQL packet size to a value lower than 2048 or is it useless?

Running SQL Server 2012 SP2 CU6 on Windows Server 2012 R2, and trying to apply service pack 3 for SQL Server 2012. Ran into an issue where SP3 fails due to Object Reference not set to an instance of an object. We are using the default instance name MSSQLSERVER.
I tried repairs and uninstalling SP3, all failed due to object reference errors.
At this time, I am unable to post the detail.txt file.
What are some things I can look for in the detail.txt file that could point to the real problem?
Any Assistance would be appreciated.

On my work laptop, I am running Windows 7 Enterprise (SP1). Several months ago, I installed SQL Server 2016 CTP 2.1, and it was installed successfully. As it happens, I do not need 2016 and I believe it being installed is causing some undesired consequences, so I am attempting to uninstall it. However, as the OS requirements have changed to require Windows 8 or higher to install, I am unable to uninstall.
So how can I run an uninstall when it thinks my OS is not high enough, despite the program already being installed?
Since installing SQL Server SP3 in production, we are seeing a lot of DB Connection timeouts. Found several articles pointing to enabling IPV6 on the database server.
Does SP3 require IPV6 to be enabled? Due to Security, we were told we must disable IPV6, and use only IPV4.
Below is an example of the errors we are seeing.
An exception was handled, but could not be added to the error log in the database. The following values are associated with the error.

Hi
I have few doubt regarding downgrade and upgrade
Suppose I have 2 Instances of different Version
First Scenario
SQL Server 2014 Standard Edition with database named 'xyz' having compatibility level of SQL 2012 i.e. 110 (these 'xyz' database upgraded from SQL server 2008 compatibility level 110 to instance to SQL Server 2014 with compatibility level of SQL 2012 i.e
110)
I have another instance of SQL Server 2012 Standard Edition. Is it possible to restore 'xyz' database from instance of SQL Server 2014 to instance of SQL Server 2012.
Second Scenario
SQL Server 2014 Standard Edition with database named 'xyz' having compatibility level of SQL 2014 i.e. 120 (these 'xyz' database upgraded from SQL server 2008 compatibility level 110 to instance to SQL Server 2014 with compatibility level of SQL 2014 i.e
120)
I have another instance of SQL Server 2012 Standard Edition. Is it possible to restore 'xyz' database from instance of SQL Server 2014 to instance of SQL Server 2012.

I have two separate machine installed with SQL server 2008R2.
Now I want to execute query from Server1 and write to Server2.
I have two physically separated machine installed with the same SQL server 2008 R2 version instance
Server -A
Machine Name: Server1
Machine Local IP Address: 10.5.20.5
Machine Login Username:User1
Machine Login password:Password1
Database Instance Name: Instance1
It is configured for mixed authentication Mode
SQL Login User=SQLUser1
SQL Login Password=SQLUser1
Installed SQL version: SQL Server 2008 R2 ( Version :10.50.1600.1)
Installed operating system: windows server 2008 R2
Server -B
Machine Name: Server2
Machine Local IP Address: 10.5.20.6
Machine Login Username:User2
Machine Login password:Password2
Database Instance Name: Instance2
It is configured for mixed authentication Mode
SQL Login User=SQLUser2
SQL Login Password=SQLUser2
Installed SQL version: SQL Server 2008 R2 ( Version :10.50.1600.1)
Installed operating system: windows server 2008 R2
Now the problem is I am not able to create linked server at Server1…
What I did was, At Server2, enabled TCP/IP,TCP Port 1433, add this to firewall for both TCU andUDP and then use management studio at Server1 to create the linked server and follow the procedure,But I am not able to create the linked Server. Actually I am new for Linked server
Can you help me what are the requirements and steps to create the linked server atServer1 to write data to server2 database considering the above scenario?
Could someone give the advice of how to fix this ?
I did unconventionally way the location change from C: \Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL to D: \Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL
By first stopping all the services from " sql server configuration manager and then move the location.
now I don't see how to fix it.

Trying to repair SQL Server 2012 SP2 installation, following a failed SP3 installation. During the repair the pre-checks correctly detect SQL Server is not clustered, but during the repair of Analysis Services it fails due to Cluster Group cannot be empty.
Is there a way to force the repair into non-clustered mode?
thanks

I work for a reseller, SHI, could you please help me answer my customer's questions below?
We have a server currently running Windows Server 2008 Standard, it has 32 GB of memory in it (max supported by OS). We want to add another 64 GB to it which requires us upgrade to 2008 enterprise. We can’t do a full install, only upgrade due to applications, etc. We need to stay within the 2008 family for compatibility purposes. What I really need to know is what license I need to buy to allow us to upgrade to 2008 enterprise and what the process will be to perform the upgrade considering the license, etc.
We do not have the license under SA, but I’m fully prepared to purchase a new license outright. However, I have 2 primary concerns. One being which license do I need to buy to allow me to upgrade the operating system to 2008 enterprise? Second, what is physical process of doing this upgrade? Remember, I don’t want to do a full install, just an in place upgrade of 2008 std. to 2008 ent. If I’m reading the below chart correctly, it appears we can buy 2012 standard, then run 2008 enterprise, is this correct?
Another question: The server has no special roles, only a member server. The primary application is SQL 2008 enterprise.
