  • RE: Regarding certification 70 431

    Well if the exam is retired, then you can't write it so you can't get certified on SQL 2005 any longer.

  • RE: Restoring SQL 2008 EE DB to SQL 2008 SE ..

    Do you have any persistent Enterprise-only features in your database?

    Use sys.dm_db_persisted_sku_features to see. If you do, you won't be able to restore to standard or lower unless you remove them.
