| Downgrade Win 2008 Server to 2003 Server par dutara |
Tuesday March 11, 2008 11:54:25 PM |
Configuration: Dell PowerEdge 2900 server
You can directly go for sql server 2008. It has the backup compressor so will occupy less space only...

Have you found a solution to this yet? I'm having the same issue.
Thanks, JD |
Microsoft's documentation is sketchy on how you obtain Volume License Keys
for products when you are using Downgrade Rights to install an earlier version. The documentation out there says to contact "Microsoft Fulfillment Services" for your region. If you Google that phase you'll get nowhere. What is should really say is contact the "Microsoft Activation Center" and request a Volume License Key for you product. This is the number for the center in the US region (888) 352-7140 (http://www.microsoft.com/licensing/resources/vol/numbers.mspx) You will need the Agreement number and License number (not the license key) from your original product to get a downgrade license sent to you. I just used this a few minutes ago to downgrade from Server 2008 to 2003R2. |
