从SQL Server Enterprise 2008到SQL Server Standard 2014的备份兼容性

Question

I got an old database that I need to transfer from SQL Server 2008 to 2014. The problem that occurred was that restoring the database in 2014 threw an error saying that it's not compatible, due to some functions that are only available in Enterprise edition.

Database "---name---" cannot be started in this edition of sql server, because part or all of object '---table_name---'is enabled with data compression or vardecimal storage format are only supported in SQL Server Enterprise Edition.

Is there a way to backup the old database with some sort of compatibility mode?

Answer 1

SELECT * FROM sys.dm_db_persisted_sku_features;

This will show you what features you have enabled that need to be disabled.

I would restore a backup to an enterprise instance, and then begin to work from there to disable enterprise features After the above query returns no results you should be fine.
