32-bit to 64-bit upgrade, license question

  • I have a server currently running 32 bit that I want to upgrade to 64 bit (currently has X64 compatible AMD CPUs).  I have tried to find among MS' weblink any information about what I need to do for a license for the SQL Server.  Do I need to buy a new license for the 64 bit?  Or does my SQL 2005 Standard license give me the right to run that license as either 32 or 64 bit?

     

    Thanks.

  • Found the answer myself.  You do not need to buy a new license.
