Error Message:
Msg 15143, Level 16, State 1, Line 27
‘%s’ is not a valid option for the @updateusage parameter. Enter either ‘true’ or ‘false’.
Severity level:
16.
Description:
This error message appears when you try to use an invalid option for the @updateusage parameter of the sp_spaceused procedure.
Consequences:
The T-SQL statement can be parsed, but causes the error at runtime.
Resolution:
Errors of the Severity Level 16 are generated by the user and can be fixed by the SQL Server user. The statement cannot be executed this way. Valid values for the @updateusage parameter are only ‘TRUE’ and ‘FALSE’.
Versions:
All versions of SQL Server.
Example(s):
USE Northwind;
EXEC sp_spaceused @objname = N’Northwind’, @updateusage = ‘TREU’
Remarks:
in the above example we try to execute the sp_spaceused procedure with the invalid value “TREU* for the @updateusage parameter. This raises the error.
