Strange SQL 2008 R2 Missing Configuration Parameters?????

  • Does anyone have any experience with this?

    How can this happen?

    I have a number of development servers that I am comparing their SQL configurations across the board to ensure they are developing and testing in configurations that are consistent with our production server and if not then they are testing a configuration that will be migrated to our production server.

    I came across one of the development servers that is missing 2 parameters, completely missing from sp_configure (yes I did show advanced)

    Select @@Version = Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 (RTM) - 10.50.1765.0 (X64) Feb 2 2011 17:33:22 Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation Standard Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 6.1 <X64> (Build 7600: ) (Hypervisor)

    So clearly it is SQL 2008 R2

    Missing Configurations

    common criteria compliance enabled

    EKM provider enabled

    Running this I get the message below.

    sp_configure 'common criteria compliance enabled', 1;

    GO

    RECONFIGURE

    GO

    Msg 15123, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_configure, Line 51

    The configuration option 'common criteria compliance enabled' does not exist, or it may be an advanced option.

    Here is the results of sp_configure:
