Were there any changes in this area with SQL Server 2014? I’ve seen this post Is it possible to restore Sql Server 2008 backup in sql server 2005 and I know that this was not possible as a scenario for 2012 -> 2008 but I wonder if MS made any changes here with the 2014 version.
We are evaluating 2014 version and we have a fairly large database in testing. We’d like to restore a backup of that database to SQL Server 2008 because that physical machine has more space, RAM,…
I’m getting standard error message when I try to restore backup but I was wondering if there is something else in SQL Server 2014 that I might be missing.
If you have both versions you can create a merge replication from new to old. Create a merge publication on your newer sql server and a subscription on the older version. After initializing the subscription you can create a backup of the database with the same structure and the same content but in an older version and restore it on your old target server. You can use this method also with sql server 2016 to target 2014, 2012 or 2008.
