Too many processes in SQL Server

  • Hello everyone

    I have 3 servers that handle replication to a central server, but one of them has about 500 active processes and the remaining 50.

    They connect to DataExchange and RSLinx software to extract data from a PLC.

    How finish processes automatically as the other servers?

    Thanks for your help 🙂

    Hello everyone

    How finish processes automatically as the other servers?

    Can't understand this. You have a merge replication setup and in one of your server the processes are numbering 500. IS this your problem?

    Yes, my problem is the difference the activity processes, in a server. This server has the same HW than the other 3 servers, the only difference is a more data of the PLC.

    Server 1 --> data from 25 presses --> 50 processes per this server

    Server 2 --> data from 32 presses --> 500 processes per this server

    Server 3 -- >data from 28 presses --> 50 processes per this server

    HOST --> Receives data from some tables of the other servers

    PRESS (send-receive data) PLC (send-receive data) RSLINX (send-receive data) DATAEXCHANGE (send-receive data) (triggers) SQL (no has relations in tables of DB)

    thks for your support

  • How are you viewing the data? Is there a resource problem or are you just intrested in finding out where the extra processes are coming from?

    If you are just intrested in where the processes are coming from, you could set up a trace to run during the processes or just run the sql profiler and look through the trace logs.

    Hope that helps. (information on how to set up a trace can be found in books online)

  • If DBCC opentran shows open transactions, these will be rolled back if you kill the connections !!!!

    In that case you will loose data.
