There is a known issue with using database snapshots in SQL Server 2019 CU7, and it was removed from the Download Center, the Microsoft Update Catalog, and Linux repositories. Note that using DBCC CHECKDB is also affected because it generates a database snapshot. This issue will be fixed in the upcoming SQL Server 2019 Cumulative Update (CU).
- If you had downloaded the CU7 package file before Sep-23 2020, it is advised to not install it. Instead, wait for an upcoming SQL Server 2019 CU announcement.
- If you have already applied SQL Server 2019 CU7, please uninstall it, until a new SQL Server 2019 CU is released. If you created a database snapshot with CU7 installed, plan to drop the snapshot before or after uninstalling CU7.
More details will be made available as soon as possible in this page.
