Hi All,
We are upgrading our Development server from MS SQL Server 2000 to 2008 using Homogeneous system copy method (Backup and Restore). Backup has been taken from source system and moved to target system as well.
I have installed MS SQL 2008 R2 server on windows 2008 R2 server and I have initiated sapinst. In Phase 2 (Define Parameter) it asking to choose Installation Method and I have selected Homogeneous system copy (MS SQL server Backup/Restore) method.
Next step, I have selected MS SQL instance name (Local host name by default), when I click next button immediately it showing one error message.
Attention
No suitable database exists on the specified database server.
Solution
Choose Back and select another database server.
Really I’m unsure about this error, even I have installed SQL 2008 serer on Windows 2008 server and I can able to login as windows authentication.
Please do the needful to resolve this issue.
Regards,
Vino
