sys.dm_os_sys_info (Transact-SQL)

  • Straipsnis

Applies to: SQL Server Azure SQL Database Azure SQL Managed Instance Azure Synapse Analytics Analytics Platform System (PDW)

Returns a miscellaneous set of useful information about the computer, and about the resources available to and consumed by SQL Server.

Note

To call this from Azure Synapse Analytics or Analytics Platform System (PDW), use the name sys.dm_pdw_nodes_os_sys_info. This syntax is not supported by serverless SQL pool in Azure Synapse Analytics.

Column name Data type Description and version-specific notes
cpu_ticks bigint Specifies the current CPU check count. CPU ticks are obtained from the processor's RDTSC counter. It's a monotonically increasing number. Not nullable.
ms_ticks bigint Specifies the number of milliseconds since the computer started. Not nullable.
cpu_count int Specifies the number of logical CPUs on the system. Not nullable.

In Azure SQL Database, this column might return the number of logical CPUs on the machine hosting the database or elastic pool. To determine the number of logical CPUs available to the database or elastic pool, use the cpu_limit column in sys.dm_user_db_resource_governance.
hyperthread_ratio int Specifies the ratio of the number of logical or physical cores that are exposed by one physical processor package. Not nullable.
physical_memory_in_bytes bigint Applies to: SQL Server 2008 (10.0.x) and SQL Server 2008 R2 (10.50.x).

Specifies the total amount of physical memory on the machine. Not nullable.
physical_memory_kb bigint Applies to: SQL Server 2012 (11.x) and later versions.

Specifies the total amount of physical memory on the machine. Not nullable.

In Azure SQL Database, this column returns the total amount of physical memory on the machine hosting the database or elastic pool. To determine the amount of physical memory available to the database or elastic pool, use the process_memory_limit_mb column in sys.dm_os_job_object.
virtual_memory_in_bytes bigint Applies to: SQL Server 2008 (10.0.x) and SQL Server 2008 R2 (10.50.x).

Amount of virtual memory available to the process in user mode. This value can be used to determine whether SQL Server was started by using a 3-GB switch.
virtual_memory_kb bigint Applies to: SQL Server 2012 (11.x) and later versions.

Specifies the total amount of virtual address space available to the process in user mode. Not nullable.
bpool_committed int Applies to: SQL Server 2008 (10.0.x) and SQL Server 2008 R2 (10.50.x).

Represents the committed memory in kilobytes (KB) in the memory manager. Doesn't include reserved memory in the memory manager. Not nullable.
committed_kb bigint Applies to: SQL Server 2012 (11.x) and later versions.

Represents the committed memory in kilobytes (KB) in the memory manager. Doesn't include reserved memory in the memory manager. Not nullable.
bpool_commit_target int Applies to: SQL Server 2008 (10.0.x) and SQL Server 2008 R2 (10.50.x).

Represents the amount of memory, in kilobytes (KB), that can be consumed by SQL Server memory manager.
committed_target_kb bigint Applies to: SQL Server 2012 (11.x) and later versions.

Represents the amount of memory, in kilobytes (KB), that can be consumed by SQL Server memory manager. The target amount is calculated using several inputs like:

- the current state of the system including its load
- the memory requested by current processes
- the amount of memory installed on the computer
- configuration parameters

If committed_target_kb is larger than committed_kb, the memory manager tries to obtain more memory. If committed_target_kb is smaller than committed_kb, the memory manager tries to shrink the amount of memory committed. The committed_target_kb always includes stolen and reserved memory. Not nullable.
bpool_visible int Applies to: SQL Server 2008 (10.0.x) and SQL Server 2008 R2 (10.50.x).

Number of 8-KB buffers in the buffer pool that are directly accessible in the process virtual address space. When not using the Address Windowing Extensions (AWE), when the buffer pool obtains its memory target (bpool_committed = bpool_commit_target), the value of bpool_visible equals the value of bpool_committed. When using AWE on a 32-bit version of SQL Server, bpool_visible represents the size of the AWE mapping window used to access physical memory allocated by the buffer pool. The size of this mapping window is bound by the process address space, and so the visible amount is smaller than the committed amount. This value can be further reduced by internal components consuming memory, for purposes other than database pages. If the value of bpool_visible is too low, you might receive out of memory errors.
visible_target_kb bigint Applies to: SQL Server 2012 (11.x) and later versions.

Is the same as committed_target_kb. Not nullable.
stack_size_in_bytes int Specifies the size of the call stack for each thread created by SQL Server. Not nullable.
os_quantum bigint Represents the Quantum for a non-preemptive task, measured in milliseconds. Quantum (in seconds) = os_quantum / CPU clock speed. Not nullable.
os_error_mode int Specifies the error mode for the SQL Server process. Not nullable.
os_priority_class int Specifies the priority class for the SQL Server process. Nullable.

32 = Normal. Error log says SQL Server is starting at normal priority base (7).
128 = High. Error log says SQL Server is running at high priority base (13).

For more information, see Configure the priority boost (server configuration option).
max_workers_count int Represents the maximum number of workers that can be created. Not nullable.
scheduler_count int Represents the number of user schedulers configured in the SQL Server process. Not nullable.
scheduler_total_count int Represents the total number of schedulers in SQL Server. Not nullable.
