why sp_who2 shows the query status as sleeping ,eventhough it has been running

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18467343

Question

There is a delete query that has been running for an hour.

Just fired sp_who2 and it shows the status of the query as sleeping, even though it is running. Why sp_who2 shows the query status as sleeping?

Was it helpful?

Solution 2

A process is considered sleeping occasionally when its waits for some resources or being blocked by some other process.

OTHER TIPS

you can try with:

dbcc inputbuffer(@Spid)

take the SPID with the sp_who2 and see exactly what the is running for that user.
