Note
There are multiple releases of the sample databases. The release labeled SQL Server 2005 SP2a contains installers which will work for SQL Server 2005. The current release (currently labeled SQL Server 2008R2 RTM) contains two families of sample databases -- AdventureWorks and AdventureWorks2008R2. The AdventureWorks family is schema compatible with the sample databases for SQL Server 2005. The AdventureWorks2008R2 family has breaking schema changes in order to support some new scenarios and demonstrate new features in SQL Server 2008R2. The samples databases from SQL Server 2008R2 RTM will not install correctly on SQL Server 2005. Please use the installers in the SQL Server 2005 SP2a release for that. For step by step instructions on how to configure the prequisites that are needed before you can install the sample databases for SQL Server 2008R2 see Database Prerequisites. For step by step installation instructions on how to install all the sample databases for SQL Server 2008, see Installing Databases.The AdventureWorks2008R2 family of sample databases are described below. All databases use the default server collation.

This family of databases can only be used with SQL Server 2008 and SQL Server 2008R2 and will not install successfully for earlier versions of SQL Server. The table below lists the sample databases in this family: Database Name Description Details AdventureWorks2008R2 The new OLTP database designed for SQL Server 2008R2 Details AdventureWorksDW2008R2 The new data warehouse designed for SQL Server 2008R2 Details AdventureWorksAS2008R2 The new analysis services database designed for SQL Server 2008R2 Available now AdventureWorksLT2008R2 The new light version of the OLTP database for SQL Server 2008R2 Available now We recommend that samples, books,Office Pro, and other training material which was originally targeted for SQL Server 2005 or earlier be updated to use the AdventureWorks 2008R2 family of databases within the next two years. Support for the AdventureWorks family of sample databases will end when the next major release after SQL Server 2008R2 ships.
