Error when updating incremental statistics with norecompute option
Description of the issue Update on incremental statistics fails with error NORECOMPUTE' is not a recognized UPDATE STATISTICS option.
SQL Server version and edition Microsoft SQL Server 2017 (RTM-CU22-GDR) (KB4583457) - 14.0.3370.1 (X64) Nov 6 2020 18:19:52 Copyright (C) 2017 Microsoft Corporation Enterprise Edition: Core-based Licensing (64-bit) on Windows Server 2016 Datacenter 10.0 <X64> (Build 14393: ) (Hypervisor)

What command are you executing? EXECUTE dbo.IndexOptimize @Databases = 'USER_DATABASES', @FragmentationLow = NULL, @FragmentationMedium = NULL, @FragmentationHigh = NULL, @UpdateStatistics = 'ALL', @OnlyModifiedStatistics = 'Y', @LogToTable = 'Y', @MaxDOP = 4, @Execute = 'Y' GO
What output are you getting? For incremental statistics here the output that raises an error: UPDATE STATISTICS [dbo].[mytable] [Imyindex] WITH MAXDOP = 4, RESAMPLE, NORECOMPUTE ON PARTITIONS(2)
Msg 155, Level 15, State 1, Line 57 'NORECOMPUTE' is not a recognized UPDATE STATISTICS option.
The command should be as follows to not trigger the above issue:
UPDATE STATISTICS [dbo].[mytable] [myindex] WITH RESAMPLE ON PARTITIONS(2), MAXDOP = 4, NORECOMPUTE;
But maybe we should also consider to add an exclusion of statistics with norecompute option ? I didn't find options for that
