  • Have a look at the sys.dm_os_memory* DMVs and the memory-related counters for SQL Server in perfmon.

  • Put the values that your client wants to see, it's not my report.

    I know its my report and client wants to know about total memory utilization by sql server.I think they are interested in whole part rather then individzual components .can you plz tell me briefly what parameters i should look for memory begin uitilized by sql server

  • Try checking out "MSSQL$InstanceName:Buffer Manager", "MSSQL$InstanceName:Memory Manager" and "Memory" perfmon counters. This would be a good place to start. Make sure you capture over a good period of time to get an accurate reading.

    I did. The memory-related perfmon counters for SQL Server (there's 4 different objects under SQL Server in perfmon that have to do with memory, all have memory or buffer in their names) and, if you want a breakdown into components, the sys.dm_os_memory* DMVs

    Have a look through them (in conjunction with Books Online if necessary) and see what matches your requirements.
