I ran this statement against a SQL Server 2000 database and got this message:
Msg 5058, Level 16, State 5, Line 1
Option 'READ_ONLY' cannot be set in database 'MASTER'.
I think the correct answer is E. Anyone else agree with me on this?

I agree, but I only ran this against 2005 instance (no access to 2000).
makes more sens to not have it read only in the first place.
On 2008 it's definitly not possible to make it read only.

This is what I got when I ran it in 2005...
Msg 5058, Level 16, State 5, Line 1
Option 'READ_ONLY' cannot be set in database 'master'.

The original question was asked about 2000, but I tried 2000,2005,2008 and they all gave me the same error. Now the article that was referenced did mention that it could be done on a 2000 master database, but I wonder if one of the service packs changed this functionality this... Still I think the question is invalid.
Cheers,
Brian

Yes, I tried on Microsoft SQL Server 2000 - 8.00.2039 (Standard Edition) this option is disable on Master database, could be Enterprice edition might be having... question should specify the version and edtion of 2000... else the answer E is right...I want my points.
Thanx

It's a bit hard to believe that 67% of the people are wrong about this ;).

Even though BOL says it can be done, I tried it on Microsoft SQL Server 2000 - 8.00.2050 Enterprise Edition and it fails there also.

I suspect that the reason the error message was because the master database was in use, not because it is invalid to set read only on master. Since all the background processes use master how can there be no users to set read only?

Maybe using DAC to connect or having the whole server in single user... but then what's the point of setting master to read_only??
