Thanks

se are constrained to 8
concurrent queries, since they are basically free software. If you want to g
et rid of the
constraint, buy either Workgroup Edition, Standard Edition or Enterprise Edi
tion.

I get a message in the event viewer saying that the SQL server was optimized
for 8 queries and that there was 10 queries more.
How can I optimize the server for more queries?
Thanks

rid of this performance
throttling.

We have the standard edition, I should reinstall it with the standard editio
n.
Is there anything I should do before uninstalling the personnal edition et
reinstalling with the Standard edition?
Thank you
