How do I see active SQL Server connections?

问题:

I am using SQL Server 2008 Enterprise. I want to see any active SQL Server connections, and the related information of all the connections, like from which IP address, connect to which database or something.

Are there existing commands to solve this issue?

回答1:

You can use the sp_who stored procedure.

Provides information about current users, sessions, and processes in an instance of the Microsoft SQL Server Database Engine. The information can be filtered to return only those processes that are not idle, that belong to a specific user, or that belong to a specific session.

回答2:

SELECT 
    DB_NAME(dbid) as DBName, 
    COUNT(dbid) as NumberOfConnections,
    loginame as LoginName
FROM
    sys.sysprocesses
WHERE 
    dbid > 0
GROUP BY 
    dbid, loginame
;

See also the Microsoft documentation for sys.sysprocesses.

Apart from sp_who, you can also use the "undocumented" sp_who2 system stored procedure which gives you more detailed information. See Difference between sp_who and sp_who2.

Click the "activity monitor" icon in the toolbar...

From Thorsten's comments:

In SQL Server Management Studio, right click on Server, choose "Activity Monitor" from context menu -or- use keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Alt + A.

Below is my script to find all the sessions connected to a database and you can check if those sessions are doing any I/O and there is an option to kill them.

The script shows also the status of each session.

Have a look below.

I threw this together so that you could do some querying on the results

Declare @dbName varchar(150)
set @dbName = '[YOURDATABASENAME]'

--Total machine connections
--SELECT  COUNT(dbid) as TotalConnections FROM sys.sysprocesses WHERE dbid > 0

--Available connections
DECLARE @SPWHO1 TABLE (DBName VARCHAR(1000) NULL, NoOfAvailableConnections VARCHAR(1000) NULL, LoginName VARCHAR(1000) NULL)
INSERT INTO @SPWHO1 
    SELECT db_name(dbid), count(dbid), loginame FROM sys.sysprocesses WHERE dbid > 0 GROUP BY dbid, loginame
SELECT * FROM @SPWHO1 WHERE DBName = @dbName

--Running connections
DECLARE @SPWHO2 TABLE (SPID VARCHAR(1000), [Status] VARCHAR(1000) NULL, [Login] VARCHAR(1000) NULL, HostName VARCHAR(1000) NULL, BlkBy VARCHAR(1000) NULL, DBName VARCHAR(1000) NULL, Command VARCHAR(1000) NULL, CPUTime VARCHAR(1000) NULL, DiskIO VARCHAR(1000) NULL, LastBatch VARCHAR(1000) NULL, ProgramName VARCHAR(1000) NULL, SPID2 VARCHAR(1000) NULL, Request VARCHAR(1000) NULL)
INSERT INTO @SPWHO2 
    EXEC sp_who2 'Active'
SELECT * FROM @SPWHO2 WHERE DBName = @dbName

回答7:

MS's query explaining the use of the "kill" command is quite useful providing connection's information:

SELECT conn.session_id, host_name, program_name,
    nt_domain, login_name, connect_time, last_request_end_time 
FROM sys.dm_exec_sessions AS sess
JOIN sys.dm_exec_connections AS conn
   ON sess.session_id = conn.session_id;

HTH, regards,

You can perform the following T-SQL command:

SELECT * FROM sys.dm_exec_sessions WHERE status = 'running';
