如果您有兴趣在脚本中确定这一点，您可以尝试以下方法:

sc \\server_name query | grep MSSQL

注意:grep是gnuwin32工具的一部分

我刚刚安装了Sql server 2008，但我无法连接到任何数据库实例。 @G Mastros发布的命令没有列出活动实例。

因此，我查看了服务，发现SQL server代理被禁用。我把它设置为自动，然后再启动。

这里有一个简单的方法: 去 然后开始 程序然后 然后是SQL Server 2005 配置工具 然后是SQL Server配置管理器 然后进行SQL Server 2005网络配置 在这里，您可以找到安装到您的机器上的所有实例。

我知道这是一个老帖子，但我发现了一个很好的解决方案与PoweShell，你可以找到SQL实例安装在本地或远程机器上，包括版本，也可以扩展获得其他属性。

$MachineName = ‘.’ # Default local computer Replace . with server name for a remote computer

$reg = [Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey]::OpenRemoteBaseKey(‘LocalMachine’, $MachineName)
$regKey= $reg.OpenSubKey("SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Microsoft SQL Server\\Instance Names\\SQL" )
$values = $regkey.GetValueNames()
$values | ForEach-Object {$value = $_ ; $inst = $regKey.GetValue($value); 
              $path = "SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Microsoft SQL Server\\"+$inst+"\\MSSQLServer\\"+"CurrentVersion";
              #write-host $path; 
              $version = $reg.OpenSubKey($path).GetValue("CurrentVersion");
                          write-host "Instance" $value;
              write-host  "Version" $version}

If you just want to see what's installed on the machine you're currently logged in to, I think the most straightforward manual process is to just open the SQL Server Configuration Manager (from the Start menu), which displays all the SQL Services (and only SQL services) on that hardware (running or not). This assumes SQL Server 2005, or greater; dotnetengineer's recommendation to use the Services Management Console will show you all services, and should always be available (if you're running earlier versions of SQL Server, for example).

If you're looking for a broader discovery process, however, you might consider third party tools such as SQLRecon and SQLPing, which will scan your network and build a report of all SQL Service instances found on any server to which they have access. It's been a while since I've used tools like this, but I was surprised at what they found (namely, a handful of instances that I didn't know existed). YMMV.
