  • this is generally to do with the memtoleave area and indicates fragmentation of memory. Ken Henderson's book Guru's guide to sql server internals has the only real description of what this is about. I have a server which suffers from this quite badly, there is a fix, look under startup options -g , you can run this in through EM, don't have to use command line.

    I looked for packets and couldn't find such a link on my server. It's to do with all sorts of things, xp calls, oledb, out of process calls, large query plans ... You need the book as there's nothing really definitive on the web .. you'll find some stuff at microsoft on the error too.
