Tracking Long Running Queries/stored Procs
Feb 22, 2001We have just implemented our new app and I need to improve performance. We are the victims of not having a very adequate stress testing tool prior to launch. Is there an easy way to track all queries or stored procs longer than a specified time?

View 1 Replies View RelatedBest Practice For A Long Running Queries / Asynchronously Calling A Stored Proc?
May 23, 2008All -
I am using SQL Server 2005 and I have an endpoint that exposes some stored procedures as web-methods in the endpoint.
One particular stored procedure I have exposed takes a long time to execute: about 10 - 15 minutes. While, it is OK, that this stored procedure takes this long, it is not desirable for the HTTP Request that executed this proc to not wait for that long.
What I want to be able to do is to call the stored procedure and have the call return immidetaly but the stored proc continues what its doing. I will call another stored proc at a later time to retrive the result of the first stored proc. The first proc will store its results in a temp table. I am thinking of using SQL Server Service Broker to achieve this.
Is there a better a way to achieve this? And how does SQL Server process the Service Broker requests, i.e., I dont want the query to be executed when the server is busy. Are there any hints that I need to give to Service Broker to be able to do this?
Thanks.

Reacting To Long Running Queries
Mar 5, 2002Hello All
I have queries which take over 30 secs to run, which I wish to monitor.
Currently, I am monitoring using sql profiler.
Is there any way of setting up mail to e-mail me when such a query happens.
Could I set up an Alert, or is there some other method.
I want to be able to react to these events faster before the users complain.
I am using sql server 7 enterprise and I have exchange set up.
Any help would be great

Validation Queries Running Too Long

When I execute this stored proc it runs for more than 5 minutes. Is there anything i can do to speed it up? Maybe there is a faster way of writing these queries?

Measuring The Progress Of Long Running Queries
Jul 21, 2001Is there any way to measure the progress of a long running query,
for instance, to find where in a query plan a query is in SQL 7.0?
I have a query I am running that is currently 2 1/2 hours into the
query. Since it's joining three large tables, one with 42 million rows
and two with 7 million rows, I'm expecting the query to take a
while. However, I have no way of estimating exactly how long
it will take. Before I ran it, I optimized it the best I could in
Query Analyzer using an estimated query plan, making sure I had
all the right indexes, etc. I've been trying to use the estimated cost
to project query time, but that hasn't been working since queries
with similar costs can take radically different amounts of time to
execute.
Now I'm sitting here waiting, wondering if the query is just taking
too long, and I should stop it and work on optimizing it some more
(since I will have to run a couple more queries like it), or let it
finish. But I have no clue how close it is to finishing. I've tried looking
at the Physical I/O given by sp_who2 and then trying to calculate the
number of pages it would have to read if it had to read everything
from disk, then estimating it's progress by that, but this seems dubious
at best, since I don't know a whole slew of factors (ie: how many
pages are being read from the cache, is my page calculation correct,
etc).
So, does anyone know of any way to figure out how soon a long
running query will finish in SQL 7.0?
Thanks.

SP: Execute Long-running Queries In Small Chunks
May 7, 2002Here's a little SP to break up those long-running, massively-locking, bring-app-to-a-halt queries. By default it does 500 rows at a time and allows for a maximum SQL query size of 4000 characters; it should be trivial to adjust those.

Long Running Stored Procedure Status
Mar 24, 2008I have a stored procedure in SQL 2005 that purges data, and may take a few minutes to run. I'd like to report back to the client with status messages as the sp executes, using PRINT statements or something similar. I imagine something similar to BACKUP DATABASE, where it reports on percentage complete as the backup is executing.
I can't seem to find any information on how to do this. All posts on this subject state that it's not possible; that PRINT data is returned after the procedure executes. However it would seem possible since BACKUP DATABASE, for example, does this.
Is there any way to send status type messages to the client as the sp is executing??
Thanks.

Running Queries Stored As Text In Database
Jun 28, 2004An general question.
A database table contains a textfield with queries. Is it possible to run them with another query.

or so?
Does any one know? It would be nice if possible very dynamic but perhaps not so safe?
Stored Procs: Is There A Way To Divide Up (or Namespace) Groups Of Stored Procs

For C# you can have ProjectName.ProjectSection.Classname when naming a class. I am just wondering if there is a way to do the same with SQL stored procs. I know Oracle has packages and the name of the package provides a namespace for all of the stored procs inside it.

How To Kill A Long Running Query Running On A Background Thread.
Sep 1, 2006
If I start a long running query running on a background thread is there a way to abort the query so that it does not continue running on SQL server?
The query would be running on SQL Server 2005 from a Windows form application using the Background worker component. So the query would have been started from the background workers DoWork event using ado.net. If the user clicks an abort button in the UI I would want the query to die so that it does not continue to use sql server resources.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks

Problem With Using Stored Procs As I/p To Another Stored Procs

ON A.INTCUSTOMERID = B.INTCUSTOMERID
INNER JOIN TMPREFERENCE C
ON B.INTPREFERENCEID = C.INTPREFERENCEID
WHERE B.INTPREFERENCEID IN (6,7,2,3,12,10)
ORDER BY B.INTCUSTOMERID
END
IF I AM USING THIS PROC AS I/P TO ANOTHER PROC THEN IT GIVES NO PROBLEM AS I CAN USE ?
CREATE PROCEDURE PROC2
AS
BEGIN
CREATE TABLE #SAATHI(INTCUSTOMERID INT,CHREMAIL NVARCHAR(60),INTPREFERENCEID INT,CHRPREFERENCEDESC NVARCHAR(50))
INSERT INTO #SAATHI
EXEC PROC1
ST......1,
ST......2,
END.
BUT IF , I USE ANOTHER PROC SIMILAR TO THE FIRST ONE WHICH GIVES SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT RESULTS AND GIVES TWO SETS OF RESULTS,THEN WE HAVE A PROBLEM,HO TO SOLVE THIS :-
CREATE PROCEDURE MY_PROC
AS
BEGIN
SELECT A.INTCUSTOMERID,A.CHREMAIL,B.INTPREFERENCEID,C.CHR PREFERENCEDESC
FROM CUSTOMER A
INNER JOIN CUSTOMERPREFERENCE B
ON A.INTCUSTOMERID = B.INTCUSTOMERID
INNER JOIN TMPREFERENCE C
ON B.INTPREFERENCEID = C.INTPREFERENCEID
WHERE B.INTPREFERENCEID IN (23,12,10)
ORDER BY B.INTCUSTOMERID
END
SELECT A.INTCUSTOMERID,MAX(case when A.intpreferenceid = 23 then '1'
else '0' end) +
MAX(case when A.intpreferenceid = 12 then '1'
else '0' end) +
MAX(case when A.intpreferenceid = 10 then '1'
else '0' end) AS PREFER
FROM CUSTOMER
GROUP BY A.INTCUSTOMERID
ORDER BY A.INTCUSTOMERID
END
WHICH NOW GIVES ME TWO SETS OF DATA , BOTH REQUIRED THEN HOW TO USE ONE SET OF RESULTS AS I/P TO ANOTHER PROC AND OTHER SET OF RESULTS AS I/P TO YET ANOTHER PROC .
CREATE PROCEDURE PROC2
AS
BEGIN
CREATE TABLE #SAATHI(INTCUSTOMERID INT,CHREMAIL NVARCHAR(60),INTPREFERENCEID INT,CHRPREFERENCEDESC NVARCHAR(50))
INSERT INTO #SAATHI
EXEC MY_PROC
ST......1,
ST......2,

Long Running Query - Only From .NET
Aug 22, 2007I have a pretty complex query that aggregates lots of data and inserts multiple rows of that data into a reporting table. When I call this SPROC from SQL Server Management Studio, it executes in under 3 seconds. When I try to execute the same SPROC using .NET's SqlCommand object the query runs indefinitely until the CommandTimeout is reached. Why would this SPROC behave differently with the same inputs, but being called from .NET? Thanks for your help!

Long Running Process
Jan 10, 2001Hi all,
I have 3 three scheduled job: one runs onece a day, one runs once per hour, and another runs every 17 minutes. It is a NetIQ application. I just scheduled SQL Server maintianace job last night which ran at 2:00Am and 4:00Am. This morning, I came in office and found all my jobs were still running; and they were all blocked by the first 3 jobs. I had to kill all of them. In this afternoon, I kicked off one of my many DTS packages which runs usually about 40 minutes, but it failed. I tried several times but no luck. I suspected one of user tables corrupted or one of stored procedures corrupted. After I recycle the server, and dropped the table and the stored procedure, and recreated them, the package went fine. The store procedure involves many updates and inserts.
The question I have is: is it possible to cause this problem because I killed the unfinished jobs (especially the sql maintanace job)?
NOTE: the sql maintanace job does not include the backup of database and transaction log.

Long Running Backups
Jul 20, 2005I've got a server (SQL 2K, Win2K) where the backupshave started running long.The database is a bit largish -- 150GB or so. Up untillast month, the backups were taking on the order of4 to 5 hours -- depending on the level of activity on theserver.I'm using a T-SQL script in the SQLAgent to run thebackups. Native SQL backup to an AIT tape drive.Now, for no apparent reason, the backups are takingon the order of 24 to 26 hours. The backups completesuccessfully -- no errors, just taking an outrageouslylong time to complete. DBCCs check out AOK, noproblems with the database.No changes to the machine. No hardware changes. Nosoftware changes. Weird.Multiple tape media have been tried -- it's not a caseof a tape going bad.We've had no problems with this box for almost 4years. Now it's gettin' jiggy with us!Any ideas on where to start with this one?Thanks in advance.
