High CPU on the production BOX

  • Hello Experts,

    Frequently one of our production server is experiencing high CPU usage, it almost reached 80-90 % at times.

    Can anyone let me know from the sql server point of view what are the things need to consider for troubleshooting the issue.

  • Hi Sandhya,

    If you are struggling with High CPU uses then it might be a problem in production environment, according to the best practice or suggested by Microsoft you have to identify Is there any other application is also running or not if its running on same box and consuming CPU then its better to move it to some different location or box.

    As Microsoft recommended only SQl Server related stuffs needs to be there in production environment.
