Author Service Pack of client
Rosie

2006-03-30, 8:23 pm

Hi,
Do we only install service packs for the Server?
Or we install them for client too. Is it possible that we have different
service packs in Client and Server? if yes, how can I check what service pack
do I have in client?

This command gives me the service pack of server. Right?
SELECT SERVERPROPERTY ('productlevel')

I can't find any command that shows me the service pack of client. Could you
please help me?

Thank you,

Rosie

Rosie,

Yes you should apply the SQL Service pack to the client tools. If you click
on Help/About in QA it will give you the build for the client tools.

Help/About gives me the SQL Server version number. It doesn't say what
service pack.
SERVERPROPERTY ('productlevel') gives me the SP#. Do we have a similar
command for client?

Enterprise manager-->About Management Console is showing a service pack. Is
this the service pack of client?

Thank you,
Rozita

Rosie,

This will help http://www.aspfaq.com/sql2000Builds.asp

These are mostly the server builds but it does mention the service pack
builds and this will correspond with the QA Help/About. The Help/About in
SEM is all about MMC and Windows and nothing to do with SQL.

For you 194 is RTM
384 is SP1
534 is SP2
760 is SP3
2039 is SP4
