Project • This information applies to the following project types:

InstallScript
InstallScript MSI

The SQLRTGetServers2 function returns a list of database servers for the database technologies that are specified for a connection. When szConnection is empty, this function behaves as SQLRTGetServers.

Note • If you want to call any built-in SQL-related function before the OnSQLServerInitialize event handler is called in an InstallScript project or the OnSQLLogin event handler is called in an InstallScript MSI project, call the SQLRTInitialize2 function first. To learn more, see Using the SQL Run-Time Functions in InstallScript and InstallScript MSI Projects.
