CPU Usage 100% SQLServr.exe

  • Hello!!!

    I have a SQL 2000 Standard Edition (SP3) installed on a Win2000 server (SP4 with Patches) and since last thursday, the SQLServr.exe process is hitting more than 97% of CPU Usage.

    SQL memory is configured to dynamically (min. 0 / max 719) and nothing was changed on the server that might be causing this problem.

    I used sp_who2 but there are no obvious problems and I verify about virus but nothing was found either.

    Could you help me to find and solve the problem, please????

    Thanks!!!!

  • I am wondering there are some large queries running. Check all your schedule jobs and run Profiler to see which queries consume CPUs time.

    Please post "select * from sysprocesses where waittime > 0 order by waittime desc" here.

     

  • Besides the select asked by Allen, could you show the return of your sp_who2?

Plz help, TIA.

  • sp_who2 active will tell those active spids. DBCC opentran will show the Oldest active transaction that might still running.
