Changing the compatibility level changes the syntax validation, and execution bahaviour of a database. So test the implications on a testing database first and if all connecting applications work fine then chnage to production database.
Changing the Recovery model to FULL does not affect the functionality and execution of database but without any future plan it can cause the large log file size and disk full issue.

Pinal Dave

Is there any implication or effect if I change the compatibility of the database if it used to be in 70 level and i will change it to 90 level.

Also, will there be an effect if I change the Recovery Model from Simple to Full?

Thanks

I am using SQLServer Management Studio 2005. I have a database located in remote machine, which is SQLServer 2000. When i am trying to connect to that server, it is saying that, SQLServer doesnt exist or server doesnt exist. If i try the same way from some other machine with the same SQLServer 2005 installation, it is working fine. Does anyone have any idea on the compatibility issue?

Thanks,
Suren

I have the same problem. I am being forced by the application provider to set the compatibility level to 7.0 for the database so how do I setup a maintenance plan?

Thanks

Can some help me ?

Please provide more information. Which version you are working with, which database. Is it read only? Is it system Database? Screenshot of the your case will also help.
