    These utilities were deprecated in SQL2008 and discontinued with SQL2012.

    Exactly... I was trying to identify that which had been deprecated. I know Profiler is deprecated in favor of Extended Events. readpipe/makepipe had to go hand in hand... but for me it was a toss up between odbcping and profiler.

    Wish it had said Discontinued, not Deprecated... there's a difference.

    Basic SQLCMD Utilities? or Basic SQL CMD Utilities? or Basic SQL CoMmanD Utilities, or Basic SQL Utilities?

    Anyway, good question!

    Thanks for the question, but it could've been better.

    Agreed, the wording was a little. off. Then again, from the list, those 3 options were definitely the oldest and were introduced to diagnose problems or mirror underlying functionality MANY versions ago. So I simply reasoned that those would be the ones to fit the intent of the question rather than the exact wording. That I knew the utilities that well may mean I have been working with SQL Server for too long.

    This one made me research some command line utilities I had not used related to Named Pipes but deprecated, i.e. should not be used but is still supported != obsolete, i.e. has been removed from the product. I wish the wording of this question had been better.

    This question definitely needed some research, specially for me. I knew about makepipe and readpipe but had to work hard for odbcping. But got one point for my hard work so happy. 🙂

    readpipe and makepipe utilities were deprecated long back.

    Thanks.

    Ahh, 2 out of 3. Isn't that worth a point ?
