Can you kill processes in SQL Server 2K without stopping SQL Server and restarting it? I am using sp_who2 to get a list of active users and I see some accounts that are logged off but still showing up and I am trying to find a way to Kill these accounts and the processes they are doing.

I have been needing to disconnect users often, before backing up a database or setting it to restricted users.
Each time, I have to go to Current Activity & kill one process at a time. Is there a way, by which I can kill all processes on a database or force out all coonections to it?
Thanks.
Dear, Our ASP.NET scripts send SQL statements (as inline SQL or SP) to process the requested job. After the job execution, the process ID stays in the server and waits for next command with sleeping status.Since this process does not go away, next job adds another process and eventually, the server is overloaded with these processes and dies. How can I kill this sleeping processes?Regards,Echo
View 6 Replies View RelatedI restore a backup every week. It serves a couple of purposes. One, to verify the backup and secondly, to give us a current testing/training environment. As things evolve, it would be nice to script this and then schedule it as a job.
I can write the restore statement, but it fails if any sessions are open on the db. I thought about using sp_who and the the kill statement. But I was having trouble using the recordset returned by sp_who.
Now I'm thinking the sysprocess table is a better place to look. Does anybody have some experience in this area and can point me in the right direction?
While I'm going down this path, does anybody have a script to look at the master database and dynamically manage their backup strategy? That would be super cool?!?!
Thanks,

Hi,
I am using SQL Server 7.0. We have set up a task which needs exclusive use of database 'EMS_DB' . How do I schedule a task to run kill all processes in 'EMS_DB' just before this task. Any TSQL scripts for killing all precesses
for a user database?
Thanks in advance,

Hello all. I have many connections that are sleeping. I can rightclick, kill, up to 2 at a time. It takes about 20 seconds to kill it.Is that normal? I tried to make a stored procedure to kill them but itate all the power of the server, (all users yelled at me at the sametime :o) )Is this length of time normal for killing these processes?ThanksJeff

I need to then kill all sessions at 11:59pm then log all those that are killed. This is so I can schedule a job at that time, I have sessions that are blocking my job.
We are facing lot of problems with Blocking,can any one help us in this matter,The problem is as follows
We have SQL Server 7.0 running on Nt4.0, and three web servers and 5 application servers are accessing SQL server.
Till Yesterday everything was fine,Suddenly today more than 18 processes
were blocked by other(Like chain),First i killed some blocking process,then it was fine,once again it started and continuously some processes are blocked by other,and i found that all blocking process are running from webservers.I ran SQL Profiler to get some information,but no use.
I am not understanding why suddenly it happend,because we have't modified anything.Is there any way to overcome this situation,this is production server.
because of this users are getting slow responce/no responce.
----Here i want to know why it happend?

I'm trying to kill a bunch of processes in SQL 6.5 and I can't. I'm running the only machine with SQL tools installed on it (the server) and it won't let me kill them. I try the GUI screens and the Kill statement in ISQL_w. Is there any way around this?
I've stopped the SQL Server and rebooted the NT Server. Is there anyway I can get rid of these processes. They are locking some tables and keeping me from inserting data within my code. Very frustrating.
Thanks
I have upgraded a MS SQL database from 6.5 to 7.0. The database functioned fine in 6.5, now I have a table that is locking due to a blocking process. If I kill the process all is fine, but am trying to determine what is causing the process to hang. Has anyone experience any similar situations.

Hi.
Very long story and I will not bore you with it. What I need to do is call a stored procedure and from within that stored procedure, initiate other sp and get out before those other sp are finished running.
I know I can execute a job but my volume would be about 1 job per second with a life of 2-5 seconds. So in a very short period of time, I can stack up a large volume of jobs.
Anyone have any better ideas ?
Help Please !@!!

I have an SQL server with several (100) users connected. When I run a long running process, it severely impacts user performance. The long running process is a store procedure with several cursors.
Are there SQL configuration settings that would reduce the impact of these long running processes on other Users?
What is the max number of processes that can be running at the same time?

Hi All
When i see the result of Sp_who2, i see the status of a process as
"SUSPENDED" for some of the processes like logwriter, checkpoint etc.
and also found the same status for "IF @@TRANCOUNT>0 COMMIT TRAN"
Please let me know what does it mean in the context of SQL 2005

I need to know exactly what VBA lines Create and Destroy SQL ServerProcesses - i.e. those visible in Enterprise Manager under Management[color=blue]> Current Activity > Process Info.[/color]Why?I am experiencing strange behaviour with Processes that are createdwhen I create a DAO Database Object with the following line:Set m_ResDatabase = DBEngine.Workspaces(0).OpenDatabase(strDSN, False,False, strODBC)This creates the process as expected.However the following lines don't always close the ensuing Process:If Not m_ResRecordSet Is Nothing Thenm_ResRecordSet.CloseSet m_ResRecordSet = NothingEnd IfIf Not m_ResDatabase Is Nothing Thenm_ResDatabase.CloseSet m_ResDatabase = NothingEnd IfIf Not m_ResWorkspace Is Nothing Thenm_ResWorkspace.CloseSet m_ResWorkspace = NothingEnd IfIt seems as if SQL Server keeps hold of the first two Processes andthen will release any subsequent ones.Can anyone shed any light in this - or any good web pages where Imight find some answers?Regards Chris

I had to move my developed software onto another computer in order to demo this. The new computer has IIS installed as well as VS2005 and SQL Server 2005. When I try to execute I get this error.

I have a replication log reader SPID hanging.
When the logreader tries to run again, it fails
due to Error 14151 Replication log reader - task "blah" failed. Another log reader is replicating the database.
I do a sp_who2 on the database and identify the spid that is running
the logreader, from here I usually kill the spid and the log starts up again no problem. Now the spid WON"T DIE!!!
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
We are planing to write a script that execute frequently to kill processes that are running for more than 1 minute. Does anyone knows the logic to filter out system or other required SQL processes from this auto kill script

I am receiving an error from my ODBC driver “Maximum number of DBPROCESSes already allocated.”
I confirmed that there are 25 connections and that this is the default. This is caused by error message 10029, SQLEDBPS, when the maximum number of simultaneously open DBPROCESS structures exceeds the current setting. I would like to increase this maximum.
I have found only two ways to do this. One is using dbsetmaxprocs using C and the other is using SqlSetMaxProcs using Visual Basic. My problem is that I am interfacing to SQL Server using a third party tool that is doing the lower level programming.
Is there some way that I can increase the maximum number of DB processes for all databases that are part of the SQL Server 7 environment, or can I set this value using a program that is called from a stored procedure?
Any ideas in this area will be greatly appreciated.
I wish to select processes from sysprocess that are SLEEPING and more than a certain time old (say 10 minutes) so that I may KILL them. I can get the query to do the select, but how do I KILL the process? I have tried selecting the SPID into a local variable and then trying KILL @var_name, but I get "Incorrect syntax near '@var_name'".
I have tried all of the resources that I can find, but without success. Is this possible? If so, how do I go about doing it?
Thanks in advance.

Sorry, didn't quite know where this should go.
I'm reading Kimball Group's "Microsoft Data Warehouse Toolkit"
Has anyone got any experience in defining business processes? I'm struggling a little to look at my employer's recruitment busines and work out exactly what the real processes are.
Or maybe one of you has read something somewhere about this specific skill?

Me: What do you want to know from your data warehouse?

Hi ,
I want to capture all Processes,Applications and Servers (name) which is accessing(linking) to my server. Is it Possible without using Profiler?
We currently have a routine that "forks" out (to use the unix term)TSQLcommands to run asynchronously via SQL Agent jobs. Each TSQL commandgets its own Job, and the job starts immediately after creation.Sometimes we can have too many of these jobs running at the same, andthe box crawls to a slow speed until the jobs finish up.Is there a way we can limit the number of active jobs running under theSQL Agent at one time? Or is there away to limit the number of active(runnable) processes on SQL Server, in general?

Hi all of you,
I'm just a newbie with XML. Now we're moving all our DTS to SSIS packages. Most of them are simply processes that takes a plain file and loading these data into Sql table or in inverse way. So that I wonder what role will play XML here.
I mean, are there big differences between store data as XML format and nvarchar?
That sort of stuff.

Hi all,
I have SQL Server 7.0 with SP2 on it and I am not able to kill one of the SPID's who is running a SELECT Statement.
When I saw in the current activity in EM I see the STATUS as ROLLBACK, COMMAND as SELECT, APPLICATION as MS SQLEM-DATATOOLS, WAITTIME as 5375 and WAITTYPE as CXPACKET..
I also tried to reboot the machine of that particular SPID , but it still shows up in the Enterprise Manager.
Can anyone tell me how to kill this process and how to get around this Problem
Any Ideas,
Thanks in Advance
