SQL RTM

  • I am taking over an existing server that has SQL 2000 8.00.194 (RTM). Can this version be updated with SP4?

    Thanks!

  • yes

  • Apply SP4 and this includes all cumulative patches before it. Be aware that there are a number of post SP4 fixes, including SP4 issues with AWE.

  • Got it, thanks. I just wasnt sure if RTM implied some restrictions around its license agreement.

    I appreciate the info.

  • RTM is just Release To Maintenace... sql server with NO service Packs applied

  • I attempted to apply SP4, but before the wizard start, it pops a message saying the SQL Server is not installed. I have no idea how this was installed, but generally, is there a reason why I would get this message, even though SQL is in fact installed? SQL Agent is even running. One thing I see is that there is no 'Maintenance Plans' within Enterprise Manager.

    Thanks!
