Thanks for the script. We'll give it a try.

Very handy script thanks!

I did add the following: serverproperty('productlevel')ServicePack,

after the line: end as VersionName,

Since I can't remember what service pack my sql servers are on

Hi kwitzell,

I usually refer to http://sqlserverbuilds.blogspot.com/ to cross check what SP's and CU's installed on the instance based on the version string. But you made a good point on reviewing SP's in one shot.

Thanks

Nice script!

I just added another option to the VersionName CASE statement to make the script aware of SQL Server 2016:

when convert(varchar(100),SERVERPROPERTY(N'ProductVersion')) like '13.0%' then 'SQL Server 2016'

and removed a duplicate option for SQL Server 2008.

Thanks!

Why are not use awesome Glenn Alan Berry (http://www.sqlskills.com/blogs/glenn/) diagnostic queries (https://github.com/ktaranov/sqlserver-kit/tree/master/Scripts)?

I get this error when running on a multi-instance multi server cluster.

Msg 512, Level 16, State 1, Line 12

Subquery returned more than 1 value. This is not permitted when the subquery follows =, !=, <, <= , >, >= or when the subquery is used as an expression.

Here's a modified version where I added the port number SQL Server is running on (we usually change it from the default 1433).

create table #SVer(ID int, Name sysname, Internal_Value int, Value nvarchar(512))

insert #SVer exec master.dbo.xp_msver

declare @SmoRoot nvarchar(512)

DECLARE @SN NVARCHAR(128)

DECLARE @sa NVARCHAR(128)

DECLARE @tcp_port nvarchar(5)

SELECT

when convert(varchar(100),SERVERPROPERTY(N'ProductVersion')) like '10.5%' then 'SQL Server 2008R2'

when convert(varchar(100),SERVERPROPERTY(N'ProductVersion')) like '10.0%' then 'SQL Server 2008'

when convert(varchar(100),SERVERPROPERTY(N'ProductVersion')) like '9.0%' then 'SQL Server 2005'

else 'Not Found'

end as VersionName,
