SKU is Invalid when installing 2nd node in SQL 2008

By MichaelDeputy, 1 year and 1 month ago

I was installing SQL Server 2008 on a Windows 2008 cluster the other day and I received and error:  'The current SKU is Invalid'.  So I went looking for the resolution.  I came across  a blog post by Vittorio Pavesi that pointed me to the answer.  I did not take the course of copying the install files to the local server.  I was installing from a network share, so I simply moved the file  DefaultSetup.ini to a new location and started the 'Add node to a SQL Server failover cluster'  again and entered the key included on the DefaultSetup.ini manually.  The rest of the install went without issue.

    • SQLRockstar: how about tracking the distinct number of athletes that win medals? if one country sends ten athletes, but one athlete wins two golds and two silvers, then their score (by your scale) would be a 1.0, which is quite skewed. it would be better to only count that athlete once, not sure which medal...
    • Jenny: Very cool system. I can't wait to see how your scores pan out over the next two weeks.

  • Find all Triggers:
    • SQLRockstar: funny, i just put together some t-sql for finding triggers as well: SELECT name, OBJECT_NAME(parent_id), is_disabled as [Parent Object] FROM sys.triggers i use sys.triggers because it includes DDL triggers, which are not in the sysobjects table.
