For the record: SQL Server 2012 version numbers

Posted: (EET/GMT+2)

 

Oftentimes, I need to quickly figure out whether a service pack has been applied to numerous Microsoft projects, including Windows, SQL Server, Exchange, etc. The easiest way to tell is often the Help/About box, but for instance in the case of SQL Server, you can see the version number right at the top of SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) when you connect to a server.

However, when I quickly try to find these version numbers from the Internet, it takes a couple of clicks too many to find that information, so I've take the custom to record the version numbers here.

So here goes. SQL Server 2012 RTM and SP1 version numbers are as follows:

RTM version: 11.0.2100
SP1 version: 11.0.3000

Hope this helps!
