Para responder em ordem inversa
Existem duas consultas diferentes que eu uso para identificar meu nível do SQL Server.
O primeiro é a versão @@ . O bom disso é que ele também traz informações de nível de sistema operacional. O desafio é que é um grande despejo de texto e você precisa analisá-lo para encontrar os bits relevantes.
por exemplo
SELECT @@version;
/*
Microsoft SQL Server 2014 - 12.0.4416.0 (X64)
Jun 11 2015 19:18:41
Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation
Developer Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 6.3 <X64> (Build 9600: ) (Hypervisor)
*/
Minha preferência é usar ServerPropertiescomo eu posso identificar individualmente os elementos.
SELECT
SERVERPROPERTY('productversion') AS ProductVersion
, SERVERPROPERTY ('productlevel') AS ProductLevel
, SERVERPROPERTY ('edition') AS Edition;
/*
ProductVersion ProductLevel Edition
12.0.4416.0 SP1 Developer Edition (64-bit)
*/
Nada do que eu saiba. Se o sistema operacional host tiver o serviço Windows Update em execução e alguém tiver especificado "Incluir patches para outros produtos da Microsoft", você poderá instalar os patches para o SQL Server.
Mas, se você é um profissional, provavelmente não está interessado em esperar que um patch seja listado no WSUS ou gostaria de validar se o patch funciona no seu ambiente. Isso envolverá a leitura de artigos e testes da base de conhecimento (KB).
Na falta de algo incorporado ao produto, tenho consultado o sqlserverbuilds.blogspot.com . Mas existem muitos outros sites por aí tentando oferecer a mesma lista consolidada de patches, como:
Peguei os dados desse blog e os converti em um View, dbo.PatchLevel. Essa visão expõe todos os patches. Essa visualização é truncada para cobrir apenas 2016 e 2014; caso contrário, eu explodo o limite de caracteres para obter respostas.
