sp_whoisactive for SQL Operations Studio

Welcome to sp_whoisactive for SQL Operations Studio! Sp_whoisactive is a procedure written by Adam Machanic. It is a very useful tool for activity monitoring and troubleshooting.

To quote one of the posts about sp_whoisactive on Adam Machanics blog:

Here are some quick facts on Who is Active:

  • Who is Active is a DMV-based monitoring stored procedure that uses 15 different views to show a large amount of data about whats running on your server
  • Who is Active was designed to be extremely flexible, and includes options to not only get different types of data, but also to change the output column list and sort order
  • Who is Active was designed with performance in mind at every step; users report that under normal conditions response times are generally subsecond, with slightly longer response times on servers that are extremely taxed
  • Who is Active is compatible with all versions of SQL Server after SQL Server 2005 RTM. It does require that the host database (generally master) is not set for SQL Server 2000 compatibility mode

If you haven't installed sp_whoisactive in your server, you can use "Install sp_whoisactive" task to create the procedure.

See sp_whoisactive Documentation for more infomation.
