MSS_STSERV is a standard SAP Structure so does not store data like a database table does. It can be used to define the fields of other actual tables or to process "data about sqlserver and the host its running on" Information within sap ABAP programs.

This is done by declaring abap internal tables, work areas or database tables based on this Structure. These can then be used to store and process the required data appropriately.

i.e. DATA: wa_MSS_STSERV TYPE MSS_STSERV.

The MSS_STSERV table consists of various fields, each holding specific information or linking keys about data about sqlserver and the host its running on data available in SAP. These include SQLVERSION (Version of the database management system.), SQLBUILDNM (SQL Server build number (corresponding to a Service Pack).), PRODLEVEL (Date the executable sqlservr.exe was created.), SQLSTARTTM (Date and time of last SQL Server start.).. See below for full list along with technical details, documentation, text table, check tables, foreign key relationships, conversion routines, relevant tcodes and example ABAP select code etc. .
