How Can I Use More Than One Processor For SQL-Server
Jan 1, 1999I am having a powerfull Server (DELL - PowerEdge 6100/200) with 4 processors, 1 GB Ram, 6 Discs a 9 GB.
But the SQL-Server runs only on 1 processor. That means when I look at the Windows NT Task Manager it shows only 25 % used.
Can anybody give me a hint or and has anybody an idea how to modify the SQL-Server or the DELL-Server to use all 4 processors.
thank you Hubert
Internal Query Processor Error: The Query Processor Encountered An Unexpected Error During Execution.
Nov 26, 2007
I am running a query on a SQL Server 2005 database and encounter the following error message
"Internal Query Processor Error: The query processor encountered an unexpected error during execution."
There is a join between a table on the 2005 database and another on a 2000 database. I have run DBCC CHECKTABLE and found no errors on the two tables.
Anybody with ideas?
Thanks
Processor Bottleneck On Server
Aug 6, 1999Good morning,
I've just updated my databases to V7.0 from 6.5. I am having some issues with CPU utilization after rebuilding the databases. I rebuilt the databases from scripts after modifying the scripts to deal with any SQL issues between the versions.
Symptoms:
When a bunch of stored procedures are executed the % Processor Time his 100% on a single processor system, the Processor Queue Length hits 13, the Batch Request/Sec starts at 20 and rises to 47 before dropping off, Context Switches go from 370/sec to about 833/sec before dropping off and there is an increase in page faulting.
My testing was done on a single processor but my real system is dual-300+ with 128Mb RAM. The database is only 40Mb and after running the index wizard there were no changes advised.
After reading a lot in help areas for MS and here I am not sure if this has to do with how SQL Server runs now (i.e. system configuration) or if it is a query issue with parallelism. I'm assuming query parallelism since the performance spikes occur when stored procedures are run. On a single processor is there a way to address this. Then, hopefully, I can deal with the real multiprocessor system.
Thanks much,
Don
SQL Server Per Processor License
Jul 20, 2004If I install an instance of SQL Server on a box with 4 processors but specify in the licensing part of the installation procedure that it's a '2 processor license', does that really mean that SQL Server will only use 2 of the 4 processors? I ask because, having done this, if I check the SQL Server instance's properties, on the Processors tab, there are 4 processors ticked - giving the impression that 4 processors are being used by this SQL Server instance. Can anyone throw some light on this?
Another question... If I wish to reconfigure the same SQL Server instance from a 2 to a 4 processor 'per processor' license, how can this be done?

SQL Server 2005 Using A Lot Of Processor
Dec 12, 2007
Hi there
Every once in a while (every couple weeks or so) one of our SQL Server 2005 servers will have its performance take a dive. Response time on applications will slow way down. In checking €˜Task Manager€™ the CPU utilization will be up to 50 to 70 percent for the SQL server service. We have tried looking at €˜Perf Mon€™ there doesn€™t seem to be any consistent performance item that is out of whack. On occasion, it may appear to be a lot of paging going on, but I don€™t know what application is causing it. We€™ve looked at SP_who2 to see if there are any blocks, but there do not appear to be any. Though on occasion we will see a €˜Killed/roll-back€™ entry on €˜SP_who2€™ that has a lot of CPU cycles that, at least at one point in time, had a lot of counts against it.
In looking at a trace that we have set up, we don€™t see anything glaring that is held up or even a recurring theme (application) on the list that would point to a problem.
We find that by restarting the SQL Server service, this resolves the issue for another couple of weeks.
Is there something that I can look at that would tell me at least, what PC name is doing all of the IO against the database. I could then at least call the user and say €˜Hey, what are you doing€™ so that we can start to narrow down what is going on.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
SQL Server Standard Processor Use
Jul 5, 2007Hello -
Regarding Standard vs Enterprise processor usage, I have read the SQL2K5 edition comparison articles that MS puts out, but I recently viewed a webcast that gave me cause for concern.
There was a webcast called "Selecting the Right SQL Server 2005 Edition", hosted by Michael Raheem, where he stated that although Standard edition allowed 4 processors (based on sockets, not cores) some index operations only leveraged one core at a time. So even if you have, let's say, 4 dual core CPUs (= 8 processor cores), only one core at a time will be used, and the rest will be idle during that operation.
Can anyone give a better idea of which operations are full multi-core in SQL Standard. Michael mentions indexing - does that mean strictly explicit reindexing operations which are part of a maintenance routine, or does that apply to index operations during normal inserts and/or updates?
We will be using this to run a backend for a commercial website, and we need to be sure whether we can get by with Standard or we need to make the investment in Enterprise.
Thanks
'Processor Affinity From Server Properties

Thanks for your comments,
Planning For SQL Server 2005: 64-bit, OS, Processor, Memory
Jul 23, 2005I was browsing Microsoft's SQL Server site, looking forsome details about SQL Server 2005. Didn't find whatI was looking for...I'm thinking about moving an existing SQL Server 2000workload to a new box, using SQL Server 2005, andmaybe the 64-bit version.My questions are:1. What is the current target date for release of SQL Server 2005?Will 64-bit ship when 32-bit ships?2. Will 64-bit SQL Server 2005 require a special versionof Windows Server 2003 (e.g. Windows Server 2003 Enterprise x64)?Will it work with both Intel and AMD processors?3. How many CPUs, and how much memory, will be supported bySQL Server 2005, 32-bit and 64-bit, on each OS that can runSQL Server 2005.I'm looking for a chart here, something like the chart onpage 117 of Kalen Delaney's "Inside SQL Server 2000" book.SQL Server 2005 SQL Server 2005Feature Enterprise 32-bit Enterprise 64-bit------------------- ----------------- -----------------CPUs supportedWin Srvr 2003:Win Srvr 2003 Adv:Win Srvr 2003 Ent x64:Physical memorysupportedWin Srvr 2003:Win Srvr 2003 Adv:Win Srvr 2003 Ent x64:Has Microsoft published this info, and I just can find it?

SQL Server Process Processor Time (CPU Utilization) Over 100%
Mar 13, 2008
We are seeing that the %Processor Time for the sqlservr process in Perfmon is over 100%. I am trying to understand how can the percentage of use be over 100%, and why it is over 100%. Someone told me that if the machine has multiple processors, that it will be over 100%. If that is the case, how can I determine what the maximum and normal values are? If I have 4 processors, does that mean 400% is the max? Does not make sense since it is suppose to be a percentage value...
Could someone explain to me how the CPU Utilization value is being measured, and if it is going over 100%, why that is and how I can determine what the threshold should be for monitoring?

Help !!!! Unable To Connect To SQL Server From 64 Bit Processor Machine
Oct 20, 2007Hi all,
This is weird situation for me as i can access my database server from 32- bit processor and its working fine but when i try to connect through 64 bit processor it throws the following error : Please help. I am using enterprise library january 2006 to access database.
An Error has occured while stablishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow Remote Connections . (provider : Named Pipes provider,error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
Any clue or help will be appreciated.
Mirroring Causing Processor Load On Mirror Server
Jan 4, 2008Hi everybody,
I have a mirroring set up for around 30 databases in a 64 bit - 2 powerfull servers scenario - wih latest sp2 + hotfix. Mirroring works perfectly most of the times but when the principal is getting busy during the busy period of the day all of a sudden the processor on the mirror jumps to 100% and stays there for a long time - there are no live databases on the mirror server - all the databases are in mirrored mode. The principal server processor is less than 5% all the time. The network load between the principal and the mirror is also in normal limits. The principal server is dedicated to SQL but the mirror has other things too but the other processes use up maximum 15-20% of the CPU and when I stop SQL Server in one of those moments when the CPU jumps to 100% everything comes back to normal so it's clear that the issue is SQL on the mirror.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Stefan
Processor Limit In SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition

May 24, 2007SQL Server 2005 9.0.3161 on Win 2k3 R2
I receive the following error:
"Error: 8624, Severity: 16, State: 1 Internal Query Processor Error: The query processor could not produce a query plan. For more information, contact Customer Support Services."
I have traced this to an insert statement that executes as part of a stored procedure.
INSERT INTO ledger (journal__id, account__id,account_recv_info__id,amount)
VALUES (@journal_id, @acct_id, @acct_recv_id, @amount)
There is also an auto-increment column called id. There are FK contraints on all of the columns ending in "__id". I have found that if I remove the contraint on account__id the procedure will execute without error. None of the other constraints seem to make a difference. Of course I don't want to remove this key because it is important to the database integrity and should not be causing problems, but apparently it confuses the optimizer.
Also, the strange thing is that I can get the procedure to execute without error when I run it directly through management studio, but I receive the error when executing from .NET code or anything using ODBC (Access).

I have a unique problem while connecting to oracle source with a 64 bit processor. I can connect to the oracle from the command prompt in the 64 bit processor but not from SSIS.
The acutal problem is, when check the properties of the connection manager and provide a provider for oracle, and then provide username and password and click on test connection. I get the following error:
"Test Connection failed because of an error in initializing provider.ORA-06413: Connection not open"

64 Bit SQL Server 2005 Process Is Only Utilizing One Processor Whereas In 32 Bit Environ. Uses Multiple Processors
Oct 9, 2007
Hello all,
We've had a problem for a few months now that has completely stumped us. We are running a heavily cursored massive data manipulation process on a 32 bit SQL Server instance running on a virtual machine, running ontop of VMWare, with the following specs
Processors: 2x2674MHz processors
Memory: 4GB
RAID 10 disk config
When we run our process on this machine, in total it runs in 30 hours.
When this process is run on another 32 bit server with the following specs
Processors: 8x3658MHx processors
Memory: 8 GB
SAN w/ RAID 5 disk config
It runs 25% slower
But here is the real kicker. When this process is run on a 64 bit server with the following specs
Processors: 8x3658MHz processors
Memory: 8 GB
SAN w/ RAID 5 disk config
It runs 75% slower.
This process consists solely of stored procedures written in TSQL. The weird thing is that on our smaller server, the CPUs' % utilization are evenly balanced (at 20-30%) when this large data manipulation process is running. However on the bigger servers, SQL Server latches onto a single processor and doesn't load balance across other processors. Such that what we're seeing is that only one processor out of the eight will be utilized and it will be throttled at 90% while the other 7 are at zero.
The default configuration settings in all three places.
Has anyone ever seen any behavior like this, where only one processor gets used by SQL Server during processing? Granted our processes are single threaded b/c they are using cursors but, it seems that the single thread shouldn't be restricted to one processor.
Any thoughts?

SQL Server 2005 Error 8630: Internal Query Processor Error

This is not a problem in SQL Server 2000, but unfortunatlely Microsoft are supporting SQL Server 7 until 2005 and so we have to do the same...
¿What Improves SQL Server Performance? HD Speed, Processor Speed Or Ram?
Oct 18, 2007
Hi,
I have several data bases on a server (SQL Server 2000 only, no web server installed) and lately, as the company keeps gowing, my users complain saying the server gets slow, (this dbs are well designed and recieve optimizations and integrity checks, etc) because of this, Im thinking about getting a new server to repleace my old ProLiant ML 330 which was bought 4 years ago but Im concerned about what server arquitecture or characteristic can help me best to improve response performance, is it HD speed? Processor speed? or more Ram? I want to make a good decision, so I´d really appreciate your help...

Isolating A Processor For SQL 7
Dec 7, 2000I have a rather intensive load on a server that has a data mapping application on the same server(I know this is a no no but I didn't have a say). It seems to be maxing the CPU. Is there a way on a dual or quad processor machine to tell SQL Server to only use one of the processors?

Nov 20, 2007Has anyone ever upgraded the processors in their SQL Servers? Like shut it down, swaped out the processors with new ones, and turned it back on. Assuming the OS boots fine, is there any issues with SQL Server now its suddenly running on new hardware?
I have to assume that this is not that uncommon of an activity, and the OS and SQL Server should be fine.
Basically we are contemplating upgrading our quad processor (Xeon Cranford's) with four dual cores.
