Yes,

This should work for 2008 R2 Enterpise Edition too..

However, keep in mind it should be on the same Server, same build number ( SP level) and so on..

I would recommend you to give it a try on a test box….

Well I haven’t actually tried that. May be a good idea. Thanks for sharing your thoughts…

Is the master database not compatible from the Enterprise version in Standard. Couldn’t we just replace the master and not have to script the user creation?
