Bill, Susan,
Thank you for your efforts and follow-up on this. What a wonderful answer
you've given. I'm not sure which question the "Yes" applies to. Here is my
last question:
Is SQL2000 able to stay in place and function while we upgrade to R2?
Do I understand that it's ok to keep SQL2000 in place while we upgrade to R2
so long as we don't install 2005?

Hi,
Susan and I just contacted our lead, and the final answer to your solution
is Yes.
You can keep R2 installation, subscribe downgrade media, and keep SQL 2000
without upgrade to SQL 2005.

Bill Peng

Hi,
Just confirmed with our Product Team, and here's the reply:
======
If the customer has upgraded to SBS 2003 R2 Premium, then the customer is
indeed licensed to use SQL 2005 Workgroup.
If the customer's app vendor hasn't certified to run on SQL 2005 Workgroup
- then, he can exercise his downgrade rights, and get SQL 2000 Std media,
and use it alongside SBS 2003 R2.
Once the third party app vendor says their app will run on SQL 2005
Workgroup, the customer could start using the SQL 2005 Workgroup included
in SBS 2003 R2 Premium (and stop using SQL 2000 Std).
======
So you have to request the downgrade right SQL 2000 Standard version
remove R2 and SQL 2005, and upgrade again when your software vendor isnewsgroup
ready for SQL 2005.
Technically speaking, it is OK to have R2 installed first, and SQL 2005
afterward.
Hope this helps.
Sincerely,
Bill Peng

Susan
Is the requirement to stick with "all or nothing" only a licensing
requirement or is there also a technical problem? Technically, is
right.able to stay in place and function while we upgrade to R2?

With all due respect, no he can't. It's all or nothing.
If he needs sql 2000 he has to stay on SP1 without R2.
The r2 downgrade right is an entire "suite" downgrade right.

Of course you can.
Just don't remove your Sharepoint instance, and only install R2
Technology on your SBS SP1 Server. Don't install Premium Tech which
contains SQL 2005.
At this point, you will just use the R2 SQL Server 2005 Downgrade
check
There won't be any problem.

If we have SBS 2003 sp1 in place with SQL2000, is it possible to do
in-place upgrade to R2 while keeping SQL 2000 while we wait for our
vendor to update their application to SQL2005?
