multiple instances of sqlserver different dns alias

  • Hi ,

    I have installed named instances sqlserver2005 express and sqlserver2012 on the same Windows 2008 server Virtual machine ,configured sqlserver2012 to use NON Default TCP IP port .

    we need 2 different DNS Aliases for these 2 database Servers i.e I should be able to access by specifying the following properties in my application

    user=sa

    password=myPwd

    hostname=mysql2005.us.comp.com

    port=1433

    instanceName=sqlserv2005

    user=sa

    password=myPwd

    hostname=mysql2012.us.comp.com

    port=1533

    instanceName=sqlserv2012

    Is this possible?Can you give pointers on how to achieve this

    ManyThanks,

    BG

  • You'll need to use aliases within the SQL Server configuration manager, these are detailed here.
