PSS ID Number: Q110985 Article last modified on 10-31-1994

4.20

Windows

The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft SQL Server version 4.2

BUG# NT: 642 (4.2)

SYMPTOMS

If you kill processes doing heavy tempdb inserts, then terminate the client network sessions with net session/delete, under rare conditions, this may generate an access violation followed by a server hang. Often error 611 is seen. It will also sometimes happen if instead of net session/delete, you just kill all the client sessions individually by rebooting all of the client machines.

WORKAROUND

Do not terminate net connections following use of Transact SQL kill command.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft SQL Server version 4.2. This problem was corrected in SQL Server version 4.21. For more information, contact your primary support provider.
