OBJECT_ID的返回值错误？

Question

On Microsoft SQL Server 2014 (SP2-CU1) (KB3178925) - 12.0.5511.0 (X64) Aug 19 2016 14:32:30 Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation Enterprise Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 6.1 (Build 7601: Service Pack 1) (Hypervisor)

with the sp_UpdateStats actually doesn't existing, the query :

SELECT OBJECT_ID('sp_UpdateStats')

returns the value : -838816646

and

select * FROM sys.objects WHERE name='sp_UpdateStats'

return 0 line...

How can it be ? A bug in OBJECT_ID function ?

EDIT

it's good to know that the ID -838816646 is comming from sys.sysobjects or sys.system_objects but then the question more precisely is :

• why does the procedure appear in sys.sysobjects and sys.system_objects and not in the sys.objects that is supposed to be the new view that we should use ?

Answer 1

It will be stored in Master database sysobjects view

select * FROM master.sys.sysobjects WHERE name='sp_UpdateStats'

Results : -838816646

Answer 2

Use sys.all_objects to include system objects.

SELECT *
FROM   sys.all_objects
WHERE  NAME = 'sp_UpdateStats' 

The definition for this is actually in the resource database.
