Same Process Id appearing multiple times

  • Has anyone seen the same process id appearing mutiple times in process info?

    What is causing this?  When I look at the details all 5, they have the same SQL statement.  Each one is pointing to an Improptu as the application.

  • Since sql server 2000 servicepack 4 you can see duplicates of processid, it has to do with parallel processing.

    See http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/906344

  • this server is still running servicepack 3.

  • is due to parallelism - may or may not be a problem - depends if you have lots of cxpacket waits.
