What does the description "There are no SQL Server patches required for this feature." implies in "Select Features" during SQL Server 2019 update? Thanks

Question

Current version: SQL Server 15.0.4435

Cumulative Update version: SQLServer2019-KB5054833-x64.exe

Answer 1

Probably your SQL Server already includes the “CU32”, which installed the 15.0.4430.1 version, and also the Security Update KB5058722, which installed the 15.0.4435.7 version:

Maybe the Security Update was installed during an automatic update of Windows.

Check if the “CU32+GDR” is appropriate:

The meaning of “GDR” probably can be understood:
