SQL SERVER – SSMS: Activity – All Blocking Transactions
SQL SERVER – Activity Reports – Dormant Sessions
With schools starting for my daughter, I rarely get involved in her daily routine activity. But there is one thing that I don’t try to miss – the parents-teachers meet. Sometimes it is not about the report card on how my daughter faired against the rest in the class but it is more than that. I am curious to understand how she behaves in the class, how she makes friends in class, how her extra-curricular activities are, is she disciplined overall etc. Those are key attributes and traits I am looking at getting as feedback from the teachers in that hour of interactions. Let us learn about Dormant Sessions in this blog post.

SQL SERVER – SSMS: Memory Consumption Report
The next in line in this series of reports is the “ Memory Consumption ” Report from SQL Server Management Studio. This is a goldmine of a report in my humble opinion and lesser respected. When I used to be consulted or land into performance tuning exercises for customers in the past, there is one question that gets repeated and echoed every now and then – “My SQL Server is eating away my RAM and it is not releasing it back even in non-peak hours”.
