Microsoft distributes Microsoft SQL Server 2005 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 2005 fix release.

SUMMARY

This article describes the following about this hotfix release:

  • The issues that are fixed by the 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

SYMPTOMS

When you try to use backup software to back up a database in Microsoft SQL Server 2005 for Itanium-based Systems, the database backup operation may be unsuccessful. You may receive the following error message:

HRESULT 80040002.
Microsoft SQL-DMO: [SQL-DMO]Code execution exception: EXCEPTION_DATATYPE_MISALIGNMENT

For example, you may experience this problem when you try to use IBM Tivoli Storage Manager backup software.

Note You do not experience this problem when you try to use backup software to back up a database in Microsoft SQL Server 2000 64-bit edition or in SQL Server 2005 32-bit edition.

CAUSE

This problem occurs when the backup software uses SQL Distributed Management Objects (SQL-DMO) to call the GetSpaceAvailableInMB property.
