Applying SQL2005 SP2 CU9

  • Before I apply CU_9 on SQL 2005SP2 the procedure stated to make sure that SMO and DMO XPs are enabled. To verify I run sp_configure on my Database Instance and do see SMO or DMO listed anywhere??

    any suggestions?

  • its an advanced option named 'SMO and DMO XPs' try

    sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1; reconfigure; sp_configure 'SMO and DMO XPs', 1; reconfigure;

  • I received the following msg:

    Ad hoc update to system catalogs is not supported

    Do I need to check the "cross database ownership changing box to allow this change?

    I also didn't see the XPs listed when I submitted:

    sp_configure 'show advanced options'

    What next?

    Thanks

  • I finally got it to work. I had to use the "RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE" syntax.

    ex:

    sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1;

    GO

    RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE;

    GO

    sp_configure 'SMO and DMO XPs', 1;

    GO

    RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE;

    GO
