Is the -g option supported by the latest SQL Server?

(This Issue 2596 seems closely related to #2601

@MikeRayMSFT Should this be forwarded to engineering?

Running sqlservr.exe /? lists the -g startup option and allows its use, but nowhere is it mentioned in the startup messaging.

@yang-jiayi - I believe it doesn't apply to 64-bit applications, but I'm double checking. It appears there are several related places to update. I will confirm. Thanks for raising the issue.

@yang-jiayi - thank you for submitting this. We're submitting an update to remove this inoperable parameter from the options. We'll explain that it was supported through 2014.

The 2017 version of the following documents have descriptions based on -g (memory_to_reserve).

It should be clear how these contents should be considered in SQL Server 2017.
