@@ServerName returns NULL

Hi: We use @.@.Servername throughout all our jobs to indicate to the script
which server the script is running upon. However, for some unknown reason,
the statement "Select @.@.ServerName" is returning a null value rather than the
name of the server. This has broken ALL of our job scripts. There is a work
around, however, with over 100 jobs that run, we are not too keen about
modifying existing scripts. Any ideas how we can get this fixed?

Hi Richard,
Quote from Books Online:
SQL Server Setup sets the server name to the computer name during
installation. Change @.@.SERVERNAME by using sp_addserver and then
restarting SQL Server. This method, however, is not usually required.

Hi Richard,
I'm sorry to hear that. Unfortunately, I'm at a loss about what might
cause this. However, you might want to check the following links to see if
they apply to your situation:

|||run sp_dropserver
and then run sp_addserver 'local' if the instance is a default
instance .
If the instance is a named instance then run sp_addserver
'machinename\instancename' .
The server name will be changed after SQL is recycled.
HTH.
