Hi,

We have SP 1.2 SP 2.0 in production. Overall it works.

I cant comment on migrating a database, I have never had to do this.

However, on grooming, ISS have an unsupported SQL tool that performs
automated grooming. Have a look on their utilities page. I use this to
purge low priority events once week (again this is an organisational
choice, not for all). It works. The only red flag I would waive....use
it locally on the SQL Database, not over the network as the SQL
procedures that it executes take a long time to finish, dependant on the
volume of data being purged. I do not like to think what would happen if
there was a network outage.

Hi all,
 
I am working with SP 1.2 for a while and I hop that SP2.0 will solve
migration database issue.
 
One of main issue is enterprise database migrate to another database.
 
You can't copy / migrate real secure database without reinstalling SP
and it is a problem.
I am working with my preproduction system, testing all around Sp1.2.
After deciding upgrading to production for larger database I have
found
that I can't change the eventcollector password.
In version 6.5 you can change the location of your database only by
adding new ODBC connection 
And reenter the eventcollector user name or password.
This feature does not exist in SP 1.2, "since the passwords for these
users are created dynamically you cannot recreate the users on the new
database since no one knows what the passwords are."
"So that is why you will need to reinstall Site Protector if you wish
to
migrate it to another database."
This is Technical ISS Support quoting.
Another thing you can't install enterprise database without ids server
on the same machine.
"When you install the Enterprise database it will always install the
IDS
server. 
There is no way around this issue"
 
So before installing or upgrading to SP 1.2 "RTFM"
 
Thanks 
Best Regards

Has anyone else been struggling with Database Grooming issues and the
lack of any ones useful in the product?  Has anyone developed any SQL
jobs worth sharing?  Has anyone heard if this will be enhanced in SP
2.0?
