Can I use data drive subscription on a remote sql standard version

I would like to upgrade our report server to sql 2000 enterprise
edition to be able to use the DD subscriptions.. if I do do upgrade the
server, will I be able to connect to a sql server on another box with
the standard version and continue to use DD subscriptions on that
remote server.
or is there another way to get around this issue by way of stored
procedures.. thanks.What specifically do you mean by "continue to use DD susbscriptions no that
remote server"? Do you mean the remote server is the source of data that
drives the DD subscription? In that case, yes.

Tim, you got it, that's what I wanted to know. also, do you know if its
possible to simulate dd subscriptions, let say by way of stored proc?
on standard version of sql. thanks.

Can I move System database log files?

I am trying to improve performance on my sql server by moving the log files
to a different drive than my mdf files. I have done this sucessfuly with my
user databases, but wanted some reassurance before trying the system
databases (i.e. Master, Model, MSDB and TempDB). I have done this with a
detach, and a attach database from Enterprise Administrator (I'm not actuall
y
a dba ).
Is there a recommened method (if it's possible) to move the log files of the
system databases?
TIA,

Master, Model and MSDB are so very low thoughput DB's that they are not an
issue with performance.
Temp DB:
From BOL:
I. Move the tempdb database
This example moves tempdb from its current location on disk to another disk
location.
Note This example is applicable to tempdb only. To move user databases, use
sp_detach_db and sp_attach_db. For more information, see Attaching and
Detaching a Database.
Determine the logical file names for the tempdb database.
USE tempdb
GO
EXEC sp_helpfile
GO
--The logical name for each file is contained in the NAME column.
Change the location of each file using ALTER DATABASE.
USE master
GO
ALTER DATABASE tempdb
MODIFY FILE (NAME = tempdev, FILENAME = 'E:SQLData\tempdb.mdf')
GO
ALTER DATABASE tempdb
MODIFY FILE (NAME = templog, FILENAME = 'E:SQLData\templog.ldf')
GO
Stop and restart SQL Server.

Can I install to C and put data on E?

Can I install SQL Express 2005 to C drive but store and run the database from a different partition on the same drive?

Thanks in advance.

Yes you can.

When installing from a command line, you can supply the INSTALLSQLDATADIR command to provide a non-default data location. You can also set this after SQL has been installed using the Database Properties tab of the Server Properties dialog.

Mike

Can I install the db In a different location rather than default?

Hi,

When creating a new database I would like this db to be created on my D drive rather than the default place.How do you do this in sql server 2005 ? I could not find a dialog box or something similar to point to a folder for the data and log file.

Any suggestions?

Hi,

scroll abit right on the datafiles grid, you will find the Path column there.

HTH, Jens Suessmeyer.

Thanks !

I feel so silly now ,In sql 2000 is right in front of you .I totally missed the scrollbar.

Thanks

Good that this helped, could you please mark the post as solved then ?
