I am looking for advice. I am the SQL Server DBA at our company. Our network admins want to apply Wondows 2000 Server and Windows 2000 Advanced Server hotfixes and other service packs to servers that are running SQL Server 2000. I am looking for a way to confirm that the updates will not affect SQL Server. The patches have been applied to a development server(without my knowledge) and SQL Server is running fine. But, I would like to be able to research these patches first, test them on a server running SQL Server and then approve them to move to a production server. Is there anywhere that lists known hotfix issues with SQL Server? I have been reduced to checking the KB articles on TechNet and looking for caveats on each to see if there are any issues with SQL Server.
Any advice is welcome.
