Default Re: SQL 2005 SP2 Memory - 11-20-2008 , 09:02 AM






I cannot find SQLServer as a choice in perfmon

SQLServer:Buffer Manager - Buffer cache hit ratio
SQLServer:Buffer Manager - Page life expectancy
SQLServer:General Statistics - User Connections
SQLServer:Memory Manager - Memory Grants Pending

What am I missing?

Yes, AWE is enabled for each instance.

How do I tell in Perf mon which SQL Instance is what #. It shows sqlservr

I have a two server cluster with 32GB mem. I have six SQL instances
running
with the default memory settings. Min mem 0 Max all.

When I look at Taskmanager process tab I see the six sqlserver.exe's and
the
most any are using is 250mb. Butr when i look at the perfromance tab it
tells
me that only 400mb of 32gb are free.

Where is all the mem being used.

Page file was originally set to 4gb. Reset to min 25gb max 60gb

One strange thing is that after reboot for the pagefile change I cannot
delete the old page file because it says it is in use but I verified the
settings and there is not page file set for C. I moved to B and that
partion
shows a page file.

There should be objects beginning with MSSQL$. Try starting perfmon in 32
bit mode:

perfmon /32

I cannot find SQLServer as a choice in perfmon

SQLServer:Buffer Manager - Buffer cache hit ratio
SQLServer:Buffer Manager - Page life expectancy
SQLServer:General Statistics - User Connections
SQLServer:Memory Manager - Memory Grants Pending

What am I missing?

You want the actual SQL Server Memory Manager object for that instance.
For
example, for the SQL2005 instance on the MYSERVER (MYSERVER\SQL2005), you
want the following Computer, Object, Counter:

MYSERVER
MSSQL$SQL2005:Memory Manager
Total Server Memory (KB)

1-6

Are you using AWE? What does Total Server Memory say for each of the
instances in Perf Mon?

I have a two server cluster with 32GB mem. I have six SQL instances
running
with the default memory settings. Min mem 0 Max all.

When I look at Taskmanager process tab I see the six sqlserver.exe's and
the
most any are using is 250mb. Butr when i look at the perfromance tab it
tells
me that only 400mb of 32gb are free.

Where is all the mem being used.

Page file was originally set to 4gb. Reset to min 25gb max 60gb

One strange thing is that after reboot for the pagefile change I cannot
delete the old page file because it says it is in use but I verified the
settings and there is not page file set for C. I moved to B and that
partion
shows a page file.
