I installed SQLExpress 2012 with advanced services on my new Win 8.1 laptop. Since windows update is allowed to update all microsoft products, SP2 was installed also. After the update, i noticed 2 strange things:
- SQL Agents appears in the configuration manager (not able to start)
- Reporting about number of logical and physical CPU is changed (screwed up).
The laptop has an 'AMD A6-6310 APU with AMD Radeon R4 Graphics' which was identified as 1 physical en 4 logical CPUs. Now it's 4 Physical and 1 logical CPUs. Adding CU1 doesn't fix the problem either. MSinfo32 is reporting the correct values:
here's the output of sys.dm_os_sys_info (with version info):
On the properties screen in SSMS it says 4 processors.
I am sure it did report the correct logical/physical cpu, because I collected this data.
So why is dm_os_sys_info reporting wrong values?
