@@servername
-
Hello,
my SQL Server was installed with name 'FIRSTNAME'. After that I change its name into 'SECONDNAME', with :
sp_dropserver 'FIRSTNAME'
sp_addserver 'SECONDNAME', LOCAL.
But when I start:
select serverproperty('servername')
result is: 'FIRSTNAME'.
Wherefrom serverproperty('servername') takes information.
-
did you restart the server ?
* Noel -
Yes I did.
After restart @@servername shows 'SECONDNAME', but
select serverproperty('servername') shows 'FIRSTNAME'. So, it must be written somewhere that 'FIRSTNAME'.
-
did you also alter the physical servers name ?

I did only sp_dropserver 'FIRSTNAME'
and sp_addserver 'SECONDNAME', LOCAL.
Nothing else.
I wonder where serverproperty('servername') gather information

but how about :
select *
from master.dbo.sysservers

Could you post the output of sp_helpserver ?

sp_helpserver gives me SECONDNAME

Could you post the output of sp_helpserver ? (the actual results set when you execute it from QA) ... I'm asking for a specific reason, to help you figure this out ... the exact output friom a QA session (all columns) is invaluable at times ...

I was able to duplicate your issue on a named instance. I need to acquire a 'default' instance yet ...

They should report different names in some cases. See Books Online @@Servername topic:
"......
Although the @@SERVERNAME function and the SERVERNAME property of SERVERPROPERTY function may return strings with similar formats, the information can be different. The SERVERNAME property automatically reports changes in the network name of the computer.
In contrast, @@SERVERNAME does not report such changes. @@SERVERNAME reports changes made to the local server name using the sp_addserver or sp_dropserver stored procedure..........."
