|
24 | 24 | ## Hardware and software requirements
|
25 | 25 |
|
26 |
| -For hardware and software requirements, see [SQL Server 2025: Hardware and software requirements](install/hardware-and-software-requirements-for-installing-sql-server-2025.md). |

27 | 27 |
|
28 | 28 | ## Known issues
|
29 | 29 |
|
30 |
| -### SQL Server fails to start after installation |
| 30 | +### SQL Server on Windows fails to start after installation |
31 | 31 |
|
32 | 32 | **Issue**: SQL Server instances on Windows might fail to start after the installation if the machine has more than 64 logical cores per NUMA node.
|
33 | 33 |
|
34 | 34 | For more information, see [Limit number of logical cores per NUMA node to 64](compute-capacity-limits-by-edition-of-sql-server.md#limit-number-of-logical-cores-per-numa-node-to-64).
|
35 | 35 |
|
| 36 | +### SQL Server on Linux fails to start after installation |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | +**Issue**: SQL Server instances on Linux might fail to start if the machine uses an Intel 12th Gen or later hybrid architecture CPU, and the host operating system is Linux. |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +You might see an error message similar to the following output: |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +```output |
| 43 | +Reason: 0x00000004 Message: ASSERT: Expression=(result * DrtlGetProcessorCoreCount() == DrtlGetProcessorCount()) File=LibOS\Windows\Kernel\SQLPal\common\dk\sos\src\sosnumap.cpp Line=208 |
| 44 | +``` |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +If you want to use a Linux host operating system, you can work around the issue by disabling efficiency cores (E-cores) in your BIOS. If you use containers, or a hypervisor like Hyper-V on Windows (including WSL), you aren't affected. |
| 47 | + |
36 | 48 | ### Upgrade in place
|
37 | 49 |
|
38 | 50 | [!INCLUDE [sssql25-md](../includes/sssql25-md.md)] doesn't support in place upgrades from previous versions of [!INCLUDE [ssnoversion-md](../includes/ssnoversion-md.md)], including SQL Server 2025 CTP releases.
|

|
40 | 52 | ### Setting the backup compression algorithm to ZSTD
|
41 | 53 |
|
42 |
| -There's a known issue when attempting to set the [backup compression algorithm](../database-engine/configure-windows/view-or-configure-the-backup-compression-algorithm-server-configuration-option.md) to ZSTD. |
| 54 | +There's a known issue when attempting to set the [backup compression algorithm](../database-engine/configure-windows/view-or-configure-the-backup-compression-algorithm-server-configuration-option.md) to ZSTD. |
43 | 55 |
|
44 | 56 | When specifying the ZSTD algorithm (`backup compression algorithm = 3`), the following error message returns:
|
45 | 57 |
|
46 |
| -```console |
47 |
| -Msg 15129, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_configure `3` is not a valid value for configuration option 'backup compression algorithm'. |
| 58 | +```output |
| 59 | +Msg 15129, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_configure `3` is not a valid value for configuration option 'backup compression algorithm'. |
48 | 60 | ```
|
49 | 61 |
|
50 | 62 | Use the new compression algorithm directly in the [BACKUP](../t-sql/statements/backup-transact-sql.md#-compression---algorithm---ms_xpress--zstd--accelerator_algorithm---level---low--medium--high------no_compression-) Transact-SQL command instead of setting the server configuration option.

|
52 | 64 | ### Incorrect behavior of SESSION_CONTEXT in parallel plans
|
53 | 65 |
|
54 |
| -Queries that use the built-in `SESSION_CONTEXT` function may return incorrect results or trigger access violation (AV) dumps when executed in parallel query plans. This issue stems from the way `SESSION_CONTEXT` interacts with parallel execution threads, particularly when the session is reset for reuse. |
