BREAKING SQL INSTANCE

  • [font="Courier New"]Hi,

    I was wondering if I were to clone a hard drive with SQL server installed on it and image it on to another PC with a different name, would that break my instance?

    Are there any settings that need to be changed during the SYS prep. setup that I need to keep in mind?

    Thanks. :)[/font]

  • What you want to do, Please make it clear.

  • I have a PC with sql server installed on it.

    I need to clone the hard drive.

    When the clone image is installed on another PC with a different name, will that break my SQL instance?

    Thanks.

  • Why you want to go with Clone, Better to take a backup and restore it on your Laptop.

  • - The clone not only includes an instance of the SQL but also a client application, a back end, config. files, registry seetings ... etc.

    - It saves time reconfiguring every system again and again.....
