Home Forums SQL Server 2005 Backups SQL Server 2005 to 2012 Restore using Red-Gate Backup 5.3.x RE: SQL Server 2005 to 2012 Restore using Red-Gate Backup 5.3.x

  • Some 3rd party tools allow you to restore to a server that does not have a license. The license is just required for making the backup. I also remember that some tools will convert their backup into a SQL native backup file so you can use native SQL for the restore. Sorry I don't know the specifics. Call RedGate & ask them ?
