List Features installed

  • hi all,

    Does anyone have a way to list the features installed on an instance? At present all i can find is looking at the install log. I was hoping there might be a nice easy way with T-SQL?

    fingers crossed!!

  • Under All Programs/Microsoft SQL Server 2008/Configuration Tools

    run: SQL Server Installation Center

    Then select Tools/Installed SQL Server features discovery report

    My thought question: Have you ever been told that your query runs too fast?

    My advice:
    INDEXing a poor-performing query is like putting sugar on cat food. Yeah, it probably tastes better but are you sure you want to eat it?
    The path of least resistance can be a slippery slope. Take care that fixing your fixes of fixes doesn't snowball and end up costing you more than fixing the root cause would have in the first place.
