See the query in sp_execute
-
I'm supporting an application that is big about using sp_prepare and sp_execute. I need to reverse-engineer some queries for reports and I'm having a hard time since I can't see them :w00t:.
The best I've come up with so far is http://dbaspot.com/ms-sqlserver/141465-how-can-i-find-out-what-command-sp_execute-running-without-using-profiler.html
I get this query to work, but I don't know how to find the latest plan (option #3).
select textfrom sys.dm_exec_requestscross apply sys.dm_exec_sql_text(plan_handle)--where session_id = 52--Column doesn't exist in 2005 (assuming it does after)select * FROM sys.dm_exec_sql_text(NULL)from sys.dm_exec_sql_text(most_recent_sql_handle)--where session_id = 52 -
Would the following script help?
SELECT DEST.TEXTFROM sys.[dm_exec_connections] SDECCROSS APPLY sys.[dm_exec_sql_text](SDEC.[most_recent_sql_handle]) AS DEST--WHERE SDEC.[most_recent_session_id] = 57 -
Looks right on the nose. I'll test it out when I'm back in the office.
Tx.

While we're at it... is there any way (other than a trace) to see all the queries run by a session between 2 dates?
Or plan A.2 Is there a way to see all the plans queries that are prepared and ready for sp_execute (not sp_executesql)?

Regarding question 1: Nope (or at least not that I know of), since SQL Server is designed to release execution plans from memory if no longer needed in order to free memory. There's a concept involved considering the complexity of the query plan itself as well as the number of times the query being called "recently" (using a decreasing tick counter). So, the more you query towards the past and the less complex ther query plan is/was and the less frequent the query is used the higher are the chances for an execution plan being removed from the cache.
If the app uses a DBCC freeproccache you'd miss al previous statements, too...
Regarding plan A.2: I guess that's a question for Paul White (aka SQLKiwi)... It's way over my head.

Ok maybe I'm removing a valid option.
When I look at the trace I have nothing in the sp_prepare event that shows me the query that is being prepared. Is this information available?
-
My other challenge here is that when I run a report or whatever so that I can see what's going on. The statements seem to already have been prepared (unless I'm blind and missing them in the trace).
So back to 1 of my previous requests... any way to see all the prepared statement queries or plans.... anything I can use to figure out what I got to do?

Have you looked into Event Notifications? I'm not an expert and they aren't as robust as Extended Events in 2008, but they might do something, I don't know if the needed events are available.

I don't see anything usefull in there in the events list. The closest thing might be cache_insert.
Anything else would scare the life out of me... getting millions of rows in the trace in only minutes. That seems a little extreme for a first SB project :w00t:.

Yeah. But you could get SHOWPLAN_XML and I think you can do some pretty complex filtering. Might be worth looking at.

That's also why I was hoping for a way to see the prepared queries :w00t:. Then it's just logging and getting the distinct prepared plans used by 1 connection and I've got all I need to move on.

Yeah, there might be too much load, but I thought it might be an option and more lightweight than a trace.

Yeah, there might be too much load, but I thought it might be an option and more lightweight than a trace.I've tested that option in another project and saving the plans for each queries adds a noticable load on the query / server... and that was running a couple 1000 queries / hour. Not millions in minutes :w00t:.
