Should I Remove

  • I was tasked to uninstall Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 Management Objects and Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Setup Support Files from my SQL 2014 database server and I am wondering what programs rely on these two applications.  The DBA that set up the server said that he never installed anything SQL 2008 related on the box and thought maybe these installed as part of backward compatibility.  A list of installed programs on the server are below if you could eyeball them it would be helpful. 
    Any help would be appreciated and I dont mind doing the research so if you could just point me in the right direction It would be nice. 

    Current application installed
    Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Native Client
    Microsoft SQL Server 2014 (64bit)
    Microsoft SQL Server 2014 Management Objects
    Microsoft SQL Server 2014 Policies

  • I reallized today that these two application install with SQL Server 2014, but I dont know for what part or why. 

    I figured it out when I went to a test server where I installed only SQL Server 2014 with all features i found them installed.  There is no reason to uninstall them

    Any feedback is appreciated but looks like the issue is resolve.
