It sure will help others as it immensely helped me when I was installing Ver Latest version, I'm stuck with C: and that's it. RichardGriffiths Interesting, so it is a regression. Did you uninstall the previous version of SSMS first? LukaszSzozda I didn't because I had a fair number of connections setup on that installation.
I put in E: drive into the installer, and yet it still installed over MB on my C drive. VERY unhappy. Saurabh Srivastava Saurabh Srivastava 79 2 2 bronze badges. Almost a working solution. Don't know the reason. This way we do not have to change the location of the database after it is created at different locations. The ideal scenario would be to specify this default location of the database files when SQL Server Installation was performed.
If you have already installed SQL Server there is an easy way to solve this problem. This will not impact any database created before the change, it will only affect the default location of the database created after the change. You can change the default location of the database files.
All the future database created after the setting is changed will go to this new location. What are the best practices do you follow with regards to default file location for your database? I am interested to know them. Subsequent installations install components to the same location as the original installation. If you apply an update to any of the instances on the computer, any changes to files in this folder will affect all instances on the computer.
When you add features to an existing installation, you cannot change the location of a previously installed feature, nor can you specify the location for a new feature. You must either install additional features to the directories already established by Setup, or uninstall and reinstall the product. For clustered configurations, you must select a local drive that is available on every node of the cluster.
When you specify an installation path during Setup for the server components or data files, the Setup program uses the instance ID in addition to the specified location for program and data files.
Setup does not use the instance ID for tools and other shared files. Setup also does not use any instance ID for the Analysis Services program and data files, although it does use the instance ID for the Analysis Services repository.
Data files are always expected to be found in a child directory named Data. Skip to main content. This browser is no longer supported. Download Microsoft Edge More info. Contents Exit focus mode. I have no admin rights to see anything and I have no idea if it was an inplace upgrade or a new server. I assume it's new since the actual server name changed in nslookup. Why would it append the default virtual directory when it makes the hop to server "xyz"? Hi guys. Thanks and looking foward.
I want to redirect the logshipping primary backup folder to another drive, how to change the configurations steps to move the primary logship folder to another location within the same server! I have also rebooted the machine.
How can this can changed without going through the registry? I have built an application that uses SQLExpress. I need to make the setup package to install the SQL instance with a specific name and some other setting. I searched a lot on my own and didnt find any way of predefining these setting.
Tnx in advance. Hello, Our security center just scanned my database server and has asked that I change the database server from the default instance name and change the default port used.
Is this possible without un-installing and then re-installing? Thanks for any and all help. I have question about install both default instance and name instance on to one server. Do I need follow a specific order such as default instance first then name instance?
If my server already has two or more name instances, can I install one more default instance? Hi, I'm just looking into installing a second instance of SQL with SP2 on a W2K3 R2 machine that already contains a default instance, if i do so is the order of installation 1 Install named instance 2 Apply SP2 to the newly installed named instance If i do this, will either of these require a system reboot?
The default instance should remain operational if no reboot required as the service pack is for a specific instance in this case? Thanks in advance P. How do I change it, drop it, modify it? I've been looking through the on-line info from MS and I and very confused. We installed SQL 7. SQL 7. How can we change the default to SQL ?
