- Thanks for this Heather! Is there any way we can get the SQL eval added to the page as well? That link is also broken (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/evaluate-sql-server). Thanks!
- I second the request to get SQL Evals added. Need 2016 pretty bad right now.
- Heather_Poulsen
Mike Terrill, rayoc79, and Road2Nz - Good news! The Microsoft Evaluation Center is back up. Use the navigation at the top of the page to locate the SQL Server evals you need.
- Thanks for this, saved the day 🙂
- thanks, heaps Heather!
- Thanks Heather!
- Thank you so much!
What is the difference between the "LOF" and "FOD" ISO downloads for Windows Server?
- SoniaCuff
Microsoft
TexasViking LOF is the image that contains the "Language packs and Optional Features" - it's much bigger at 5.7GB
FOD is Features on demand, that gives you a smaller installation file to start with, then downloads the appropriate feature components into the build when you run it and choose them. It's only 335MB.
- I have a Dell PowerEdge Server with OEM Windows Server 2019, but now I can't find my DVD media, could I use this evaluation ISO to install and then use the OEM key to active it?
Thanks. Heather_Poulsen It would be awesome to get a Link for MSSQL 2016 soon as well 🙂
Thank you for sharing and great hearing the problem have been fixed.
Would you mind share what caused the issue and how it has been fixed?
