FineBuild can Configure the Processor Properties available in SSMS for the SQL Server Instance.

The SQL Instance Processor Properties do not normally need to be altered.

For systems with 8 or more processor cores, performance can be improved by setting processor affinity. Setting CPU affinities for SQL Server, I-O and network is an advanced topic beyond the scope of SQL FineBuild. If you have more than 8 processor cores, you should research this issue in detail before any affinity settings are made.

FineBuild Configure SQL Instance Processor Properties

The SQL Instance Properties configuration relates to Process Id 5BD and is controlled by the parameters below:

SQL Version Parameter FULL Build WORKSTATION Build CLIENT Build
SQL2019 /SetupSQLInst: Yes Yes N/A
SQL2017 /SetupSQLInst: Yes Yes N/A
SQL2016 /SetupSQLInst: Yes Yes N/A
SQL2014 /SetupSQLInst: Yes Yes N/A
SQL2012 /SetupSQLInst: Yes Yes N/A
SQL2008R2 /SetupSQLInst: Yes Yes N/A
SQL2008 /SetupSQLInst: Yes Yes N/A
SQL2005 /SetupSQLInst: Yes Yes N/A

In order to maintain compatibility with older versions of SQL FineBuild, the parameter /ConfigSQLInst: can also be used.
