RE: Is MSDN installation any different from purchased CD?

 

  

I think you'll find that the licensing on all MSDN server stuff is
development/testing. The developer edition of SQL Server has full
Enterprise functionality, except for a limit on concurrent connections.
Otherwise everyone would buy MSDN and not bother with the full 25-cal
licensing or per processor models
See footnotes at
<http://msdn.microsoft.com/subscriptions/levels/default.asp> for more detail

Only the SQL Server Developer Edition is limited to 5 connections. MSDN
Universal also has the Standard and Enterprise Editions, which are not
limited to 5 connections (even if installed from MSDN media).

Check the @@VERSION for the server and see what edition it is -- it sounds
like the developer edition to me.

MSDN installs of servers are all development versions, and limited to (I
think) five concurrent connections.

Dear all,

I have a silly question. I was trying to run scripts with several concurrent
sessions. When I ran the scripts with more than 4 concurrent users that
access the same tables, I started to get error like the following

SQL Error State 23000, Native Error Code: A29, ODBC Error .....

I was using WinSQL to run the scripts. Would tool be the reason of the
error? My server was installed from MSDN CD. Would it be the problem? Would
you please kindly advise? Thank you very much.

Regards,
Devin
