Hi Carla,

Sorry Windows 2008 SP2 is not supported you have to use Windows 2008 64bit

> My question is: Can I go directly from Windows 2000 32-bit to Windows 2008, sp2 64-bit and upgrade SQL Server 2000 sp 4, 32-bit to SQL Server 2008, 64-bit and running SAP ECC 6?

> Create a new server with Windows 3008, sp 2 64-bit. Install SQL Server 2008, sp 2. Upgrade the database by using backup and restore (or detach/attach). Then point the application servers to the new database instance.

> Downside: Amount of downtime needed
> Plus: We have a fall back database immediately available and I do not have to have additional downtime for stopping at Windows 2003, or at 32-bit, or at SQL Server 2005.
