Msg 195, Level 15, State 10, Procedure SaveHistoryDBfileSize, Line 83 [Batch Start Line 2]

'CAHAR' is not a recognized built-in function name.

When I run the script under SQL Server 2012 Standard Edition, I get the following errors:

Error message: Incorrect syntax near '/'.

Error number = 102

Error Procedure: '---

Error Line = 12

Please advise. (Note that I changed the TEST database to the MASTER database and I am running with SA privileges).

Hi!
I think that the reason is not in SQL2012, but in that my procedure uses CLR function drive_info.
This CLR needs to be pre-installed for your database.
In the description of my procedure (SaveHistoryDBfileSize), I did not explain the process of creating the CLR function.
I just noted the link (https://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/1986/sqlclr-function-to-return-free-space-for-all-drives-on-a-server/) on a good article that I used himself.
Do not use the master database for the experiments. It is better to create your own base.

There is also a missing bracket in this line;

CAST(mf. AS DECIMAL(38, 0)/128. AS [FileSizeMB]

It should be;

CAST(mf. AS DECIMAL(38, 0))/128. AS [FileSizeMB]

And yes you need to create the CLR procedure as well.

Rodders...

Incorrect syntax near 'SaveHistoryDBfileSize'.

Tanks, Rodders!

oops, missed the part about the CLR procedure. I will look into that.

Thanks.
