We have an almost idle server (windows server 2008 R2) with SQL Server 2008 Enterprise with default instance. We would like to port all the data, install SQL Server 2012 developer edition and use it as testing server. Is that possible we still choose default
instance name on 2012 developer version? Do we have to shutdown or uninstall the 08 Enterprise? If we keep both versions running, does SQL server 2012 have to choose a named instance? Any suggestion would be appreciated.
