CD-ROM: Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 4 Is Not Included
The autorun screen for the SQL Server 7.0 Evaluation CD states that Windows NT 4.0 SP4 is included on a second CD.

There is only one CD included. Please see the System Requirements on the last page of the book:

"Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 4 is not included on the companion CD. You can download this Service Pack from the Internet at http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/."

Page iv: “Determining” Not In Title Of Chapter 32
On page iv of the Contents At A Glance, Chapter 32 is titled Determining Common Performance Problems. However, the actual chapter, starting on page 798, is titled Common Performance Problems.

Page iv: The Title Of Appendix C Is Incorrect
On page iv, in the Appendix C title, change:

"SQL Server Configuration Options"

To:

"DBCC Commands"

Page 96: Formula To Determine Total CPU Write Time Is Incorrect
On page 96, in step 8, the formula for determining the total CPU write time is incorrect.

Change:

CPU write time = (writes/sec) * (CPU write time)

To:

total CPU write time = (writes/sec) * (CPU time for a single write) * (work period)

Page 734: Incorrect Information About Differential Backup
On page 734, under Restoring from a Differential Backup, change:

"To restore from a differential backup, you must first restore from a full backup and then restore all of the differential backups that have been created since the last full backup. Remember, a differential backup is used to back up information that has changed since the last full or differential backup."

To:

"To restore from a differential backup, you must first restore from a full backup and then restore the last differential backup. Remember, a differential backup is used to back up information that has changed since the last full backup."

Page 821: The First Page Of Appendix A Is 822, Not 823
On page 821 (Part VI opener), in Appendix A change:

"SQL Server Configuration Options 823"

To:

"SQL Server Configuration Options 822"
