Any known probs SQL2000 und Server 2003

Hello out there,
we plan to move our MSSQL2000 database to a Win 2003 server. Any reasons,
not to do so? Anything, we should be aware of?
Thank you!
Bernd
We moved dozens of servers with no problems.

If two are not in same domain you need to disable rpc security.

Any free sql backup compression utility ?

Hi,
I perform backup by maintenance plan tasks and think about add additional
task to compress backups and delete original backups.
Do you know some script base resolution (winzip, winrar, 7zip...)?
Regards,
anxcomp
From what I understand there is a command line version of winzip. But that
does not give you the same thing as using one of the tools from Red-gate or
Quest. They compress the backup as it is being read and when written it is
already compress. You would have to do it in two steps and it would require
much more CPU & Disk I/O than with Red-Gate. Not to mention you now have to
have extra disk space to store the initial backup before you compress it.
The same is true for restores. It makes the process much longer and more
difficult than it needs to be.

|||Hello,
This is good for me, I don't want live compression and decompression. My
databases are on simple mode I perform only full nightly backup.
Do you use some scripts (vbs, sql with xp_cmdshell or something...) to
perform this task?
Thank you inadvice

anxcomp
|||What does the fact this is in simple mode have to do with this? In any case
have a look here:
