資安更新作業需確認 SQL Server 詳細版本資訊，需細到 Service Pack 及累積安全更新，爬文查到超好用的 SQL Server 版本資訊偵測腳本。這組自動偵測腳本由微軟OneScript Team提供，可顯示版號、產品名稱、產品層級（Service Pack 版本）、版本別（Express、Enterprise、Developer…）、32 / 64 位元、Service Pack 版本、累積更新（Cumulative Update）等資訊。
更厲害的來了，偵測結果還包含後續若要更新，最新版 GDR（General Distribution Release）及 QFE（Quick Fix Eningeering）的下載網址。
【小辭典】
SQL Server 更新的種類超多，順手整理如下： 參考
- QFE，Quick Fix Engineering，也常被稱為 Hotfix
較未經過大量測試的修正，經索取才提供（留下 Email 才寄送下載連結，也方便事後發現問題通知），通常用於較緊急狀況。- COD，Critical On-Demand
針對影響嚴重、範圍層面廣或安全相關問題所出的緊急更新，通常會收納到下次 CU/SP，COD 有時會包含多個 QFE。- CU，Cumulative Update
在 SP 與 SP 之間的更新，通常以 60 天為單位匯集發行，測試完整度不如 SP，安裝到正式環境前應先測試，但微軟鼓勵積極更新，可省去追查一些已被修復的問題。延伸閱讀（傳統上 CU 測試與驗證完整度不如 SP，但近年來 CU 的可靠性已接近 SP）- GDR，General Distribution Release
一些重大或安全相關更新的累積更新，若沒有額外資訊測試 CU，GDR 是風險較低的選擇。- SP，Service Pack
可視為特殊標示的 CU，包含安全更新、Bug 修復，有時還會包含新功能。
