title: SERVERPROPERTY('LicenseType')
body: <p>I was recently going through all the options made available by Microsoft for the SERVERPROPERTY() in SQL Server. </p>
  
  <p>When i write
  SELECT 'License Type ', SERVERPROPERTY('LicenseType')</p>
  
  <p>I get output as </p>
  
  <p>License Type  <strong>DISABLED</strong></p>
  
  <p>I went through the <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms174396.aspx" rel="nofollow">knowledge base</a> and it states the follows - 
  " Unused. License information is not preserved or maintained by the SQL Server product. Always returns DISABLED. "</p>
  
  <p>It would really be great if someone could suggest me a use of this Enum/Property as i find Microsoft Technologies too intelligent to keep things like these in the final released product if they are truly useless... </p>
  
  <p>Any Ideas please...</p>
