The activity monitor is not showing entries for hosts which connect via sql logins (odbc), is this normal? Where can I find a list of protocols in which the hostname/ip can be picked up. We're on SQL 2005 SP1/Build 2153
Thanks
Hi
we have one 'application'-user in sysusers that makes the connect to SqlServer for all users, for example:
Application Login-User: Thomas
DB-Connect-User: AppUser
With this solution, in Activity-Monitor or with sp_who I don't know, what is the real name of the connected user.
Any possibility to change the login-information after the connect, so that i can see 'Thomas' in Activity-Monitor or with sp_who?
Thanks for your help.

If I'm on a remote machine, meaning a computer not in the WSFC cluster, and I open SSMS 2014, point it to a SQL Instance, and open activity monitor:
1. I get all the panes and charts except % Processor Time.
2. Then, if I authenticate to the cluster's domain by mapping a drive with valid domain credentials, I'm free to put performance counters in the Perfmon - - - but SQL Activity Monitor shuts down with“The Activity Monitor is unable to execute queries against server SQL-V01INSTANCE1..Activity monitor for this instance will be placed into a paused state.Use the context menu in the overview pane to resume the activity monitor.
Additional information: Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))(Mscorlib)”
3. Of course, the Activity monitor can't be resumed via the context menu. Removing counters and closing the perfmon do not work. I dropped the mapped drive and rebooted the machine. That brought back 95% of the information in the Activity monitor.
4. Further experimentation showed that any mapping of drive shares present on the SQL Server to the computer running SSMS cut off functionality of the 'overview' pane in the remote machine's SQL Activity monitor -- the monitor that had been trying to watch the server offering the shares.
Is there a way to allow a user to run activity monitor without making that user system admin

Hi,
I have a problem with Job Activity Monitor.
I have a SSIS which copies data from a table to a flat file. The connection string of this file is variable and the file is reused if not exists and is created if exists.
When I run the SSIS manually from my microsoft visual studio it works properly. However, when I run this SSIS from the Job Activity Monitor, I get the following error:
Message

Hi All,
I want to analyze server (SQL 2005) activity at a specific time in the past. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a log file reflecting the information in Activity Monitor. Knowing that the sysprocesses and syslocks tables feed Activity Monitor, I thought about doing a log analysis on the master transaction log, but I'm not sure that's possible.
Is there a (different) way to achieve this?
Or is there a better approach to identifying processes that cause performance bottleneck/deadlocks?
Any input would be appreciated.

Hi,
I've been using the Job Activity Monitor quite a lot and last night I installed Service Pack 1 for SQL Server 2005. I've noticed now that I only have a "Start Job at Step" option when I right-click a job. Whereas I used to have just Start Job or both Start Job and Start Job at Step options.
The problem is that Starting a Job at a Step, produces a modal dialog box which prevents further access to Job Activity Monitor until the job is complete.
Does anyone have any comments regarding this?
Thanks in advance,
Richard.
I'm hoping that someone has experienced this problem before and knows how to get round it.
The problem we are having is that we have a job that is scheduled to run at 4:00 am each morning, for the past 6 weeks it has done this with no problem. However, this morning it failed. we know it failed because it didn't produce the results it was supposed to. However the monitor said that the job had completed successfully. On examining the history of the job we found that the job was still running!!! When we tried to stop the job by right clicking and selecting the appropriate action. The action available to us was to start the job.
After arguing for a bit we decided to try and run the job again. We did this and found that the job running in the history screen terminated with an error and than ran and completed successfully.
Confused? So are we any ideas or solutions gratefully received
Hi!
I want to extract the same information as the Activity Monitor does with SQL in SQL Server 2000.
Have tried to use sp_who2 but I miss some important columns.
How do I do?
Thanks!
If you are in SQL Server Management console, go to Job Activity Monitor, there is an option 'View Refresh Settings'. You have to enable/check the Auto Refresh option here every time. Is it possible to keep this Auto Refresh enabled?
Thanks!

I have a SSIS package set up that will transfer a file from a location on the network drive and transfer it over FTP to another location.
When I manually run the package, the file is transfer with no errors. But when the job is automated (via Job Activity Monitor) the transfer fails?
I have set the ProtectionLevel of the package to "EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey" and also converted the package to a Development Model. The settings for the FTP is saved within the package.
What am I missing? below is the error message

We have killed a job which is now in KILLEDROLL BACK state. Job activity monitor is not showing any running jobs but I can see the SPID of that job. When tried to kill again its giving the message ‘command completed successfully‘, not able to get the percentage or time for the roll back to complete.
Another DBA tried to create a snapshot and it was stuck and I believe it was because of this ROLLBACK as both were using same Database.
All;
We have a Windows App and Web App that share business objects which points to a single database. When a Windows user logs in, an average of 50 processes are created in the first few seconds and never go away. The details window is blank and they all remain sleeping from that point on.
I have stepped through the code to see if there is anything odd going on but most of the processes are created when validating the number of parameters the stored procedure has or the length of the stored procedure name. This translates to 1000-1500 processes on average.
Is this normal? Will it hurt performance? Is there a way to remove them?

Is there anywhere in the SSMS to see the start time of a currently running job, currently running it's first step, without needing to run a query?
If not, why would Microsoft decide to not show it in the job activity monitor?

Hi everybody,
when I look into the replication monitor of our sql 2005 server I see a lot of subscriptions that are no longer used.
I wrote a program for a smartphone using the sql compact edition (sql ce db). Just in case there are some problems i do not want to mentioned here, i use an preconfigured sql ce db, reinitialize it and afterwards synchronize it. Then the old subscription is no longer used.
The problem is that up to now I did find a way to delete this unused subscriptions at the publisher database. As a hint: there is no way to get access to the old sql ce db for removement issues. The dbs are gone.
So, is there a way to solve my problem?
We are using sql 2005 server as publisher and are using merge replication.
Thanks for help in advanced

Is there a way to permanently change the order of the columns in Job Activity Monitor?
I'd like to move Duration to the right of Step Name, but this only lasts so long as I have JAM open. Once I close it and re-open, JAM goes back to its default column order. Google gives me nothing but the temporary "drag and drop" method that I already know about.
Please forgive the simplicity of this question - I am not the dba type. When I connect to a server and look at my connection attributes in activity monitor, the user column shows the correct information for my domainusername. When I run a certain stored procedure in that connection, the domainusername changes to another person. We are not using execute as, setuser, or anything special to explicitly change the user. The stored procedure is in a schema that is owned by dbo (principal_id = 1 - I verified by checking sys.database_principals.)
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
John Hennesey
For SQL Server 2000 we have a user login mapped to msdb with database role membership of db_datareader and public checked. This seems to allow the developers to view the Management Activity monitor. For SQL Server 2005 the same mapping is in place but the developers cannot view the Management Activity monitor. Developers are NOT granted the sysadmin role, and should not have that role.
What permissions need to be set for SQL Server 2005 to allow users to view the Management Activity monitor? They should not be allowed to take actions on the activities.
Hi,
We have development and user acceptance (UA) servers. When I start a job on the development server, on the management studio, Start Jobs window and Job activity windows indicate "Executing" until the end of the job and finish with "success" or "failure"
But on the UA server, second after I start a job, Start Jobs window comes up with "success" or failure" and Job activity monitor says "idle" but Job continues to log without any error message and updates the tables. So these two windows are not reliable at all. I have to add that I have only job operator rights on the UA server.
Does anybody know what the reason is ?
Thanks

How to find last login date/time for user DML acitivity on databases on Instance?
Is there any way we can find our the last login date/time for databases?
Note: 1. We can find if the SQL Trace is running and store.This is not good solution
2. Audit logins off/on is also not good solution.
3. Using DMV's also not good option, if reboot sql server instance then historical values can not see.
When I probe sys.dm_exec_sessions (joining with other DMVs to get active-session info) I get the login_name column to be blank for a certain session.
Yet, for the same spid, the Login shows up properly (not blank) when I execute "sp_who2 active".
It also shows up properly in sys.sysprocesses.
What could be the reason for the faulty output of sys.dm_exec_sessions ?

How to find the list of queries currently running in the Database with User Login Information.
Since my database application is running slow, to find the slow queries.
If I wanted to search for Jobs as a particular status (e.g. 0130) and wanted to keep the jobs at this status until it has reached 0500, 0125, or 0900 in it's subsequent status log entry, how can I write the SQL for it to achieve it?
I have the following SQL which searches for the Jobs at 0130, but don't know how to develop it further to search on the requirement above.
------ SQL -------
SELECT
job.job_number,
(SELECT MAX(jsl.job_log_number)
FROM job_status_log jsl
WHERE
job.job_number = jsl.job_number AND
jsl.status_code = '0130') as Last_Early_Warning_Status_Entry
[code].....
In the job_status_log table above, there is a job_log_number field which increments by 1 when there is a new status log entry.

Been looking through the forums for a solution to this problem.I already tried granting access through statements such as:exec sp_grantloginaccess N1'machineNameASPNET'But they don't seem to work.. i vaguely remember seeing somewhere a DOS command line statement that grants access to the ASPNET_WP and that fixed my problem before on another computer.. but this is a new computer and i forgot to write down the command.Can anyone help explain and propose a solution to my problem. Many thanxs.
