I got the following message while querying a database to pull data to retrain a model. I do not have sysadmin access or anything like that, I am merely a user of a larger database shared by our whole organization. I'm trying to understand what this message means; is our SQL server doing a shutdown or have I potentially done something to cause this? All I have done before seeing this error message is import libraries and run the query.

('42000', '[42000] [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]SHUTDOWN is in progress. (6005) (SQLExecDirectW)')
unable to rollback

CodePudding user response：

Assuming you are set up correctly, you would never be able to shut down a SQL Server instance as a user.

Based on what you've said, importing libraries would not cause a SQL Server shutdown. This would be done purposely by an administrator of the database.

I would suggest informing your IT team. Hopefully this was for some planned maintenance.
