waittime in sysprocesses table

  • waittime is int data type, which means it is up to 2,147,483,647 millionseconds (35 minutes). What if I need to monitor a process which takes longer than 35 minutes, for example 1 hour? Is there a way to bypass this limitation?

  • Erm ...

    waittime is in MILLISECONDS ...

    select 2147483647 / (1000*60*60)

    -- 596 Hrs
