Folks:

I recently migrated all of our SQL 2000 SP4 databases from one server to new server (new hardware). After the successful migration I realised that instead of installing SQL Enterprise Edition, I installed SQL Standard Edition. The old server had SQL Enterprise Edition. What are my options If I have to move it back to Enterprise Edition?

Do I need to install SQL again? If so, can I detach and attach databases? Any help and suggestions is appreciated.



Thanks !

Just run sql2k enterprise edition installation again, it'll migrate standard edition to enterprise edition.

Will it also migrate the databases? or Do I have to detach the databases first?

What will happen to the master database syslogins and msdb jobs? Will everything stay as is when I run the sql2K enterprise edition?


Thanks
