OK. You have seen the announcements. You have heard the trumpets sound.
SQL Server 2008 R2 has “released to manufacturing” (RTM’ed) and will be available soon!
EXCELLENT! WOW! OUTSTANDING!
So what does it mean to this blog. First and most importantly, I am going to be reposting all of the installation guides with RTM bits and screen shots. For more information on SQL Server 2008 R2 take a look here: (http://www.microsoft.com/sqlserver/tour/en/default.aspx)
Second, if you read anything posted in this blog later than today, unless I specifically say that something is CTP or “the older stuff”, then what I am referring to is RTM. Lots and lots of things have changed CTP to RTM. Rather than concentrating on the delta, I am just going to tell you the RTM story. Unless mentioned directly, RTM is the assumed basis for all information.
And so the story continues . . .
Hi Dave,
I noticed that with RTM SharePoint logs changed. There used to be gemini.log file that contained all entries related to PowerPivot. Now that file is gone. It appears that now PowerPivot logs are just merged with SharePoint logs. Is that correct, or are there any other places where we can find PowerPivot for SharePoint logs? Maybe you could consider blog post with info on where to find logs and what to look for?
Hi Vidas,
The logfile is indeed merged with the general sharepoint logfile.
