Adicionar uma licença do SQL Server a um Windows Server que já existe
O Compute Engine permite instalar o SQL Server em instâncias do Windows e usar licenças de pagamento por uso (PAYG). Neste documento, descrevemos como é possível realizar as seguinte ações:
Depois de adicionar uma string de licença ao disco de inicialização da instância do Windows, você vai receber cobranças de acordo com o preço das imagens do SQL Server.
Limitações
Só é possível adicionar licenças PAYG para as seguintes edições do SQL Server:
SQL Server Web Edition
SQL Server Standard Edition
SQL Server Enterprise Edition
Adicionar uma licença do SQL Server
Os metadados de licença do SQL Server em um disco de inicialização permitem que o Trusted Cloud acompanhe, cobre e gere relatórios com precisão sobre o uso de licenças do SQL Server. Esses metadados são necessários ao usar licenças PAYG do SQL Server. Adicione uma licença do SQL Server a um disco de inicialização que já existe usando o seguinte procedimento:
Identifique a licença que você quer adicionar a uma instância. Para o SQL Server, a licença precisa corresponder à versão e à edição que você quer executar. Para ver a lista de strings de licenças válidas do SQL Server, consulte a guia
Strings de licença no documento Detalhes do sistema operacional para SQL
Server.
Interrompa a instância:
gcloud compute instances stop VM_NAME
Substitua VM_NAME pelo nome da instância a ser
interrompida.
CLONED_BOOT_DISK_NAME: o nome que você quer dar ao disco de livros clonado.
SQL_SERVER_LICENSE: a licença do SQL Server que você
quer adicionar ao disco de inicialização. Para informações sobre licenças do SQL Server,
consulte a guia "Licença" na seção SQL Server no Windows.
BOOT_DISK_NAME: o nome do disco de inicialização de origem que você quer clonar.
BOOT_DISK_ZONE: a zona do disco de inicialização de origem.
CLONED_BOOT_DISK_ZONE: a zona em que você quer criar o disco de inicialização clonado.
VM_INSTANCE_NAME: o nome da instância a que você quer anexar o disco de mídia do SQL Server
SQL_SERVER_MEDIA_DISK_NAME: o nome do disco de mídia do SQL Server
SQL_SERVER_ZONE: a zona da instância;
Depois que o disco de mídia do SQL Server for anexado a uma instância, na sua máquina Windows, abra a página Gerenciamento de Disco para ver se o disco tem uma letra de unidade atribuída a ele. Caso contrário, clique com o botão direito do mouse no disco e selecione Online para deixá-lo on-line. O disco de mídia do SQL Server agora é a unidade D: na página Gerenciamento de disco e no Windows Explorer.
Verifique se o disco de inicialização da instância tem pelo menos 5 GB de espaço livre em disco e copie a mídia do SQL Server para ele:
Aplicar uma chave do produto do SQL Server a uma instância do Compute Engine
Para fazer upgrade da mídia de instalação do SQL Server, é necessário conseguir e aplicar uma chave do produto à instância do Compute Engine em que o SQL Server está instalado. Para conseguir a chave do produto e fazer upgrade da mídia de instalação do SQL Server, faça isto:
Consiga a chave do produto na mídia de instalação do SQL Server:
C:\> type C:\sql_server_install\x64\DefaultSetup.ini
Conecte-se à instância em que o SQL Server está instalado usando a Área de trabalho remota e faça login com o usuário do domínio.
Clique com o botão direito do mouse no botão Iniciar (ou pressione Win+X) e selecione Executar.

Create a new disk containing the SQL Server installation media using any\n version of SQL server (for example, 2019 Enterprise):\n\n ```\n gcloud compute disks create SQL_SERVER_MEDIA_DISK_NAME \\\n --image-family=sql-ent-2019-win-2022 \\\n --image-project=windows-sql-cloud \\\n --zone=SQL_SERVER_ZONE\n ```\n\n Replace the following:\n - \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eSQL_SERVER_MEDIA_DISK_NAME\u003c/var\u003e: the name of the SQL Server media disk that you want to create\n - \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eSQL_SERVER_ZONE\u003c/var\u003e: the zone in which you want to create the SQL Server media disk\n2. Attach the disk to any existing Compute Engine instance:\n\n ```\n gcloud compute instances attach-disk VM_INSTANCE_NAME \\\n --disk=SQL_SERVER_MEDIA_DISK_NAME\n --zone=SQL_SERVER_ZONE\n ```\n\n Replace the following:\n - \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eVM_INSTANCE_NAME\u003c/var\u003e: the name of the instance to which you want to attach the SQL Server media disk\n - \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eSQL_SERVER_MEDIA_DISK_NAME\u003c/var\u003e: the name of the SQL Server media disk\n - \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eSQL_SERVER_ZONE\u003c/var\u003e: the zone of the instance\n\n After the SQL Server media disk is attached to a instance, on your Windows\n machine, open the **Disk Management** page to see if the disk has a drive\n letter assigned to it. If not, right-click on the disk and select **Online**\n to bring it online. The SQL Server media disk is now the `D:` drive on the\n **Disk Management** page and in Windows Explorer.\n3. Verify that the boot disk of your instance has at least 5 GB of free disk\n space and copy the SQL Server media to your boot disk:\n\n ```\n robocopy /mir d:\\sql_server_install\\ c:\\sql_server_install\n ```\n4. Detach the SQL Server media disk from the instance:\n\n ```\n gcloud compute instances detach-disk VM_INSTANCE_NAME \\\n --disk=SQL_SERVER_MEDIA_DISK_NAME\n ```\n\n Replace the following:\n - \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eVM_INSTANCE_NAME\u003c/var\u003e: the name of the instance you from which you want to detach the SQL Server media disk\n - \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eSQL_SERVER_MEDIA_DISK_NAME\u003c/var\u003e: the name of the SQL Server media disk that you want to detach from the instance\n\nFor more information, see [Microsoft SQL Server installation guide](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/database-engine/install-windows/install-sql-server?view=sql-server-ver16#sql-server-installation).\n\nApply a SQL server product key to a Compute Engine instance\n-----------------------------------------------------------\n\nIn order to upgrade the SQL Server installation media, you must obtain and apply\na product key to the Compute Engine instance on which the SQL Server is\ninstalled. To obtain the product key and upgrade the SQL Server installation\nmedia, do the following:\n\n1. Obtain the product key from the SQL Server installation media:\n\n ```\n C:\\\u003e type C:\\sql_server_install\\x64\\DefaultSetup.ini\n ```\n2. Connect to the instance on which the SQL Server is installed [using Remote Desktop](/compute/docs/instances/connecting-to-windows) and sign in using your domain user.\n\n3. Right-click the **Start** button (or press **Win+X** ) and select **Run**.\n\n4. Confirm the elevation prompt by clicking **Yes**.\n\n5. Start the SQL Server setup:\n\n ```\n & c:\\sql_server_install\\setup.exe\n ```\n\nWhat's next\n-----------\n\n- [Learn about licenses](/compute/docs/licenses/about)\n\n- [View the SQL Server tutorials](/compute/docs/tutorials#sql-server)\n\n- [View the supported editions of SQL Server](/compute/docs/images/os-details#sql_server)"]]
