[!INCLUDESQL Server 2022] release notes
[!INCLUDESQL Server 2022]
This article describes requirements, limitations and known issues for [!INCLUDESQL Server 2022].
For hardware and software requirements, see SQL Server 2022: Hardware and software requirements.
This section identifies known issues you may experience with this product.
When you execute setup /HELP the information returned does not include the new /AZUREEXTENSION feature. Complete information for setup is at Install SQL Server on Windows from the command prompt.
In certain localized languages, the Azure Extension configuration screen controls may be partially overwritten or missing. To resolve issue, expand or maximize the Setup window from the default window sizing.
There is a new Setup command line installation parameter - /PRODUCTCOVERDBYSA. The parameter indicates if the provided product key (/PID=) license is covered under a Software Assurance or SQL Server Subscription contract, or just a SQL Server license.
Install SQL Server on Windows from the command prompt describes this parameter.
The following features are not available in Setup in SQL Server 2022. If specified in command line installations or scripts, these previously supported parameters may fail.

When you install an initial SQL Server 2022 instance on a Windows Server 2022 machine, if the server does not have VCRuntime140 version 14.29.30139 or later installed, Setup will require reboot.
Windows Server 2022 was released with VCRuntime version 14.28.29914.
Query Store for secondary replicas is available for preview. It isn't available for use in production environments.
- Issue and customer impact: Due to defect in TDS 8.0 protocol implementation RPC calls would fail if Encrypt option is set to Strict in connection string. Example would be running "sp_who" stored procedure.
