  Hi All,

  We want to install sql sever 2005 on sql server 2000 production server, Is there any known issues?

  I am very familiar with sql server 2005 and I have installed on my machiine, but my manager has little concern to do so on Production server.:-)

  Can anyone please share any experience or any issues with the side by side installation?

  Thanks for your help

  Hi

  We have also some servers with SSE 2000 and SSE 2005 instances on same server. Since now we had no problems with this.

  Hi,

  I've also worked in several development environments where 2000 and 2005 have had to sit alongside each other, with no problems.
