In reply to Siva. There is a bug in the ring buffers DMV where this sometimes happens. Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do about it.

Hi Glenn,

I could see more that 100 value in SQLServerCPUUtilization column. But during the same time server CPU is less than 100 percent as per Task Manager. I am running this monitoring process on SQL Server 2014. Do i need to do any changes. Please suggest.

In reply to A Zarr. Just search for Glenn Berry DMV, and you will find links to my DMV Diagnostic Queries

hello Glenn,

in your course : http://www.pluralsight.com/courses/sql-server-2014-dmv-diagnostic-queries-part2

I can not find a place where we can download your queries.
We could type your dmv queries and I was wondering if you would place them some where for download related to course.

thanks,
AZ

Any thoughts on moving these from dropbox over to GitHub and keep versions split by branch or folder?

In reply to Elango C. It is working for me, and I have not had any other complaints. The file is hosted on DropBox, so maybe that is blocked for you. I will send the zip file to your e-mail address.

Hello,

Nice article. I tried to download from the link, but it says file not found. Can I get the ServerMonitor Database.zip? Can you share me the ftp location for the download?

Thanks in advance,

Elango C

Great thing for a quick start.. i think some more information collection should be added like blocking, wait types etc..

Hi, if you are willing to do some basic and advanced monitoring with no cost, you could also consider using “dbWarden”. I’ve been using it for almost 1,5 year and it’s quite good.

There is a health report that you can get every day and in which there is plenty of useful information.
