The short answer is: relax and take it easy! SSMS reminds you if there is a newer version available.
SSMS 2016 UPDATE
The only question is: how’s the update working? Do I need to check for an updated version every month? last but not least: the SQL Client Tools package contains tools such SSMS, Profiler, Database Engine Tuning Advisor, SQL Server PowerShell and several other management tools. However, SSMS 2014 can be side-by-side installed with SSMS 2016 different versions of the new SSMS cannnot be installed on the same machine.
SSMS 2016 PLUS
(Hint beside: Microsoft recommends to update in order to get bug-fixes plus new features) those SSMS installations are not timebomed and it is not mandatory to update SSMS.
you can connect to older version of SQL Server (2008 and newer) with the new SQL Client tools you are allowed to redistribute the SSMS installation package with your own applications
SSMS 2016 LICENSE KEY
those SQL Client tools are free and do not require a license key to install If you take the time to read through the questions in the announcement post you find out that … In older SSMS versions one had to wait for a long time to get support for SQL Azure Database features in SSMS. In a blog entry from March 2016, the SQL Server team announced that SQL Client Tools get a monthly update cadence.įor me, this announcement looks like a logic step for the SQL Client team to handle the fast pace of innovation at SQL Azure Database. Monthly Updates for SQL Server Client Toolsīut why – installing SSMS together or in a single step with SQL Server sounds convenient but with the new pace of development at Microsoft and especially SQL Azure Database, the release cadence of SQL development tools changed. The installation screen only shows links to download either SSMS and/or SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) for developing BI-projects. With SQL Server 2016, SSMS is no longer part of the SQL Server engine setup itself. SSMS Setup is no longer part of SQL Server Setup For those of you that have been working with SQL Server for a longer time, Management Studio had a fixed position in SQL Server setup.
Now you can log out of Windows, login as the user you just granted rights to and all should work fine.There is a significant change in the licensing rules for SQL Server Management.

Now that you are logged into Windows with an account that has access to connect to SQL Server, Let’s go in and grant rights to the user that you want to be able to use to access SQL Server. Try logging onto windows with that account that is Built-in account for administering then we can grant rights to the user you want to use to login to SQL Server. Notice under Description… There is a Built-in account for administering… This is very likely an account that has access to SQL server. In the upper right corner, click Tools, then Computer ManagementĮxpand Local Users and Groups (Under Computer Management-System Tools) then click Users Launch Server Manager – Start – Click Server Manager To get a list of users on the machine (Assuming Windows Server 2012 or above) Step-By-Step
Usually this is the user that you logged in with when you installed SQL Server or the user that is the default administrator on the computer. You need to figure out what user does have rights to SQL server. In the below screen shot, I am logging into Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio with a user that does not have administrative permissions to connect to the server.
