SQLCLR on SQL Server 2008

  • I am working with a customer that has a SQL Server 2008 instance and they are saying that the SQL CLR functions have been turned off (clr_enabled = 0) but they are still seeing lots of SQLCLR wait types.

    I am also seeing the following entry in the log file when the server is restarted

    Common language runtime (CLR) functionality initialized using CLR version v2.0.50727 from C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\

    This is a 64 bit SQL Server 2008 cluster running on Windows 2008.

    Is this a bug or is this expected behavior? Can someone shed some light onto what may be happening? If you need more information I will post it.

    Thanks,

    John

  • Not sure as I am not using SQL Server 2008 (yet) and we currently aren't using SQLCLR, but it is possible that some of the internal processes may be using the SQLCLR.

  • I have DL585 with win2k8+ sql2k8 64bit installed with default options...I dont see any entry for CLR in logs....though in

    sp_configure returns...

    clr enabled0111

  • Some of the newer datatypes like the spatial ones (geography and such) are actually SLQCLR under the hood and the DB engine does not honor SQLCLR on/off for them because they are part of the system. I would start there..
