Now I have gotten SQL Server 2012 Enterprise version, but
how can I install it on computer or server?
First, let’s see which Windows system SQL Server 2012 installation requires. And install SQL Server 2012 on that Windows system. Besides, we have to pay attention to the preparation needed for SQL Server 2012 installation.
From the description of Microsoft support, we know that SQL Server 2012 Enterprise, not only 32-bit, but also 64-bit, has to be installed on Windows Server 2012 Essentials 64-bit.
And now I have to install Windows Server 2012 Essentials 64-bit on VMware. Let’s take a try with following introductions.
1. Windows system requirement
From the description of Microsoft support, we know that SQL Server 2012 Enterprise, not only 32-bit, but also 64-bit, has to be installed on Windows Server 2012 Essentials 64-bit.
And now I have to install Windows Server 2012 Essentials 64-bit on VMware. Let’s take a try with following introductions.
2. Steps to install SQL Server 2012 on Windows Server 2012 R2
Because what we get is SQL Server 2012 ISO file, so we have to add it to virtual disk on Virtual Machine first. And then open SQL Server 2012 ISO file in virtual disk, so we could run SQL Server setup program.
Step 1: SQL Server Installation Center runs.
Step 2: Select “Installation” option and click “New SQL Server- stand-alone installation or add features to an existing installation”.
Step 3: Wait a minute when Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Setup processes the current operation.
Step 4: SQL Server 2012 Setup Support Rules identity problems that might occur when you install SQL Server Setup support files. Failures must be corrected before Setup can continue. Click “OK”.
Step 5: Specify a free edition or “Enter the product key” for SQL Server 2012.
Step 6: Accept the license terms and click “Next”.
Step 7: Click Next after Product Updates.
Step 8: Install Setup Files.
Step 9: Setup Support Rules again and their status is listed.
Tips: If the warning is not so important to influence SQL Server 2012 installation, we can ignore it and click “Next”. If it would make SQL Server installation failure on feature you need to install, solve the problem first and then begin to install SQL Server 2012.
For example, .Net Framework 3.5 would make SQL Server manage tools installation failed, so we have to make sure it has been installed successfully in Windows system or turned on. But unfortunately, .Net Framework 3.5 could not been turned on like other Windows features in Windows Server 2012 (R2) or Windows 8/8.1. So if you have any question on .Net Framework 3.5 installation, please turn to Microsoft support: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2734782

3. Something in installation we should pay attention:
.Net Framework 3.5 is needed in SQL Server 2012
installation, but it could not be added into Windows system just by turning on
such Windows features. The easiest way is to specify source file when you try
to install it in Windows system.
