Bug #: 20000119 (SQL Server 8.0)
Microsoft distributes Microsoft SQL Server 2000 fixes as one downloadable file. Because the fixes are cumulative, each new release contains all the hotfixes and all the security fixes that were included with the previous SQL Server 2000 fix release.
SUMMARY
This article describes the following about this hotfix release:
- The issues that are fixed by this hotfix package
- The prerequisites for installing the hotfix package
- Whether you must restart the computer after you install the hotfix package
- Whether the hotfix package is replaced by any other hotfix package
- Whether you must make any registry changes
- The files that are contained in the hotfix package
SYMPTOMS
In Microsoft SQL Server 2000, you may receive error message 701, error message 802, and error message 17803 when many hashed buffers are available. These error messages are out-of-memory errors. Typically, this problem occurs on computers that are based on the 64-bit architecture that have a larger physical memory footprint. For example, this problem occurs on computers that have 20 gigabytes (GB) or more of memory. When this problem occurs, an Error event that is similar to the following is logged in the event log: LazyWriter: warning, no free buffers found.
CAUSE
This problem occurs because the logic to allocate memory does not consider the overall hashed buffers that could be freed. Instead, the logic to allocate memory uses a hard-coded retry logic loop.
RESOLUTION
The installer does not install this hotfix correctly on x64-based systems. This installation issue occurs when the following conditions are true:
- The system uses the Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) AMD64 processor architecture or the Intel Extended Memory 64 Technology (EM64T) processor architecture.
Note This issue does not occur on systems that use the Intel Itanium processor architecture.
- The system is running a 64-bit version of the Microsoft Windows Server operating system.
- The system is running a 32-bit version of SQL Server 2000.
We have corrected this installation issue in later builds of SQL Server 2000, starting with version 8.00.2244. When a customer who is running SQL Server 2000 on an x64-based system requests this hotfix, we will provide a build that includes this hotfix and that can be installed correctly on an x64-based system. The build that we provide will be version 8.00.2244 or a later version.
