SQL Server 2008 SP2及时！

好吧，他们成了它。Microsoft承诺2010年第四季度的SQL Server 2008 SP2，并于2010年9月29日发布。没有截止日期的截止日志。特别是如果奖金绑定到截止日期。实际上，这几天，而不是奖金，我们只是为了留住我们的工作。时代的标志，我害怕。SP2有什么新鲜事？好吧，有一些新的错误是固定的。You can rest assured that SP1 plus all the hotfixes up to and including Cumulative Update CU8 have been included plus some more: Here’s the list: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2285068 Also, you can apply SP2 directly to SQL Server 2008 RTM. You do not need to apply SP 1 first. I did apply it to a test SQL Server 2008 SP1 instance and all went well showing SQL 10.0.4000 as the build after install. The new features of SP2 go hand in hand with SQL Server 2008 R2 features allowing a SQL Server 2008 SP2 instance(without R2) to participate in the features provided by a SQL Server 2008 R2 instance. They include the SQL Server Utility (SSU) to define a SQL Server 2008 SP2 instance as a managed-instance. The Data-Tier Application Component (DAC) is also supported in SP2. You will still need to use the R2 tools but you can deploy a DAC to an SP2 instance. Reporting Services 2008 SP2 can now integrate with Sharepoint 2010. Also SQL Server 2008 SP2 supports a new add-in for backward integration between R2 and Sharepoint 2007. Can you say R2D2 Déjà vu? Later Brian
