Several Instances of SQL

  • I currently have a SQL server that has 6 instances of SQL.  Can you tell me if there is a way to tell the difference between each instance in task manager.  So you can check which one is using most of the processor etc.  At the moment it just shows SQLServ.exe and I can't tell which is which.

    Thanks in advance.

     


    Thanks,

  • Have a look at the SQL Server Log. Shortly after SQL starts, it writes a record into this log that looks like

    Server Process ID is 3936.

    This is the value shown in task manager as PID

  • Thanks for that


    Thanks,

  • In Windows 2003 you can see user name (add "Users name" column from "View" menu). You will see difference if your instances run under different NT accounts.
