  1. Install Microsoft Sql Server 2008 In Windows 7

May 14, 2012 Microsoft® SQL Server® 2012 Express is a powerful and reliable free data management system that delivers a rich and reliable data store for lightweight.

APPLIES TO: SQL Server (Windows only) Azure SQL Database Azure SQL Data Warehouse Parallel Data Warehouse

Before you run SQL Server Setup, review Planning a SQL Server Installation.

Installing a new instance of SQL Server at the command prompt enables you to specify the features to install and how they should be configured. You can also specify silent, basic, or full interaction with the Setup user interface.

Note

When installing through the command prompt, SQL Server supports full quiet mode by using the /Q parameter, or Quiet Simple mode by using the /QS parameter. The /QS switch only shows progress, does not accept any input, and displays no error messages if encountered. The /QS parameter is only supported when /Action=install is specified.

Regardless of the installation method, you are required to confirm acceptance of the software license terms as an individual or on behalf of an entity, unless your use of the software is governed by a separate agreement such as a Microsoft volume licensing agreement or a third-party agreement with an ISV or OEM.

The license terms are displayed for review and acceptance in the Setup user interface. Unattended installations (using the /Q or /QS parameters) must include the /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS parameter. You can review the license terms separately at Microsoft Software License Terms.

Note

Install Microsoft Sql Server 2008 In Windows 7

Depending on how you received the software (for example, through Microsoft volume licensing), your use of the software may be subject to additional terms and conditions.

Command prompt installation is supported in the following scenarios:

  • Installing, upgrading, or removing an instance and shared components of SQL Server on a local computer by using syntax and parameters specified at the command prompt.

  • Installing, upgrading, or removing a failover cluster instance.

  • Upgrading from one SQL Server edition to another edition of SQL Server.

  • Installing an instance of SQL Server on a local computer by using syntax and parameters specified in a configuration file. You can use this method to copy an installation configuration to multiple computers, or to install multiple nodes of a failover cluster installation.

When you install SQL Server at the command prompt, specify Setup parameters for your installation at the command prompt as part of your installation syntax.

Note

For local installations, you must run Setup as an administrator. If you install SQL Server from a remote share, you must use a domain account that has read and execute permissions on the remote share. For failover cluster installations, you must be a local administrator with permissions to login as a service, and to act as part of the operating system on all failover cluster nodes.

Proper use of setup parameters

Use the following guidelines to develop installation commands that have correct syntax:

  • /PARAMETER

  • /PARAMETER=true/false

  • /PARAMETER=1/0 for Boolean types

  • /PARAMETER='value' for all single-value parameters. Using double quotation marks is recommended, but required if the value contains a space

  • /PARAMETER='value1' 'value2' 'value3' for all multiple-value parameters. Using double quotation marks is recommended, but required if the value contains a space

Exceptions:

  • /FEATURES, which is a multivalued parameter, but its format is /FEATURES=AS,RS,IS without a space, comma-delimited

Examples:

  • /INSTANCEDIR=c:Path is supported.

  • /INSTANCEDIR='c:Path' is supported

Important

When installing SQL Server, if you specify the same directory path for INSTANCEDIR and SQLUSERDBDIR, SQL Server Agent and Full Text Search do not start due to missing permissions.

Note

The relational server values support the additional terminating backslash formats (backslash or two backslash characters) for the path.

Important

The value for the /PID parameter should be enclosed in double quotation marks.

SQL Server Parameters

The following sections provide parameters to develop command line installation scripts for install, update, and repair scenarios.

Parameters that are listed for a SQL Server Database Engine component are specific to that component. SQL Server Agent and SQL Server Browser parameters are applicable when you install the SQL Server Database Engine.

Role Parameters

The setup role or /Role parameter is used to install a preconfigured selection of features. The SSAS roles install an SSAS instance in either an existing SharePoint farm, or a new un-configured farm. Two setup roles are provided to support each scenario. You can only choose one setup role to install at a time. If you choose a setup role, Setup installs the features and components that belong to the role. You cannot vary the features and components that are designated for that role. For more information about how to use the feature role parameter, see Install Power Pivot from the Command Prompt.

The AllFeatures_WithDefaults role is the default behavior for editions of SQL Server Express and reduces the number of dialog boxes presented to the user. It can be specified from the command line when installing a SQL Server edition that is not SQL Server Express.

RoleDescriptionInstalls...
SPI_AS_ExistingFarmInstalls Analysis Services as a Power Pivot named instance on an existing SharePoint Server 2010 farm or standalone server.Analysis Services calculation engine, preconfigured for in-memory data storage and processing.

SQL Server Management Studio
AllFeatures_WithDefaultsInstalls all features that are available with the current edition.
Adds the current user to the SQL Server sysadmin fixed server role.
On Windows Server 2008 or higher and when the operating system is not a domain controller, the Database Engine, and Reporting Services are defaulted to use the NTAUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE account, and Integration Services is defaulted to use the NTAUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE account.
This role is enabled by default in editions of SQL Server Express. For all other editions, this role is not enabled but can be specified through the UI or with command line parameters.		For editions of SQL Server Express, installs only those features available in the edition. For other editions, installs all SQL Server features.
The AllFeatures_WithDefaults parameter can be combined with other parameters which override the AllFeatures_WithDefaults parameter settings. For example, using the AllFeatures_WithDefaults parameter and the /Features=RS parameter overrides the command to install all features and only installs Reporting Services, but honors the AllFeatures_WithDefaults parameter to use the default service account for Reporting Services.
When using the AllFeatures_WithDefaults parameter along with the /ADDCURRENTUSERASSQLADMIN=FALSE the provisioning dialog is not auto populated with the current user. Add /AGTSVCACCOUNT and /AGTSVCPASSWORD to specify a service account and password for the SQL Server Agent.

Controlling Failover Behavior using the /FAILOVERCLUSTERROLLOWNERSHIP Parameter

To upgrade a SQL Server Database Engine failover cluster to SQL Server 2017, you must run the Setup on one failover cluster node at a time, starting with the passive nodes. Setup determines when to fail over to the upgraded node, depending on the total number of nodes in the failover cluster instance, and the number of nodes that have already been upgraded. When half of the nodes or more have already been upgraded, Setup by default will cause a failover to an upgraded node.

To control the failover behavior of cluster nodes during the upgrade process, run the upgrade operation at the command prompt and use the /FAILOVERCLUSTERROLLOWNERSHIP parameter to control the failover behavior before the upgrade operation takes the node offline. Use of this parameter is as follows:

  • /FAILOVERCLUSTERROLLOWNERSHIP=0 will not roll cluster ownership (move group) to upgraded nodes, and does not add this node to the list of possible owners of the SQL Server cluster at the end of upgrade.

  • /FAILOVERCLUSTERROLLOWNERSHIP=1 will roll cluster ownership (move group) to upgraded nodes, and will add this node to the list of possible owners of the SQL Server cluster at the end of upgrade.

  • /FAILOVERCLUSTERROLLOWNERSHIP=2 is the default setting. It will be used if this parameter is not specified. This setting indicates that SQL Server Setup will manage cluster ownership (move group) as needed.

Instance ID or InstanceID Configuration

The Instance ID or /InstanceID parameter is used for specifying where you can install the instance components and the registry path of the instance. The value of INSTANCEID is a string and should be unique.

  • SQL Instance ID: MSSQLxx.<INSTANCEID>

  • AS Instance ID: MSASxx.<INSTANCEID>

  • RS Instance ID: MSRSxx.<INSTANCEID>

The instance-aware components are installed to the following locations:

%Program Files%Microsoft SQL Server<SQLInstanceID>

%Program Files%Microsoft SQL Server<ASInstanceID>

%Program Files%Microsoft SQL Server<RSInstanceID>

Note

If INSTANCEID is not specified on the command line, then by default Setup substitute <INSTANCEID> with the <INSTANCENAME>.
