Individual Process CPU utilization

MS SQL Server 2000 Enterprise with SP3a
Is there a way to known which process is causing 100% cpu.
Is cpu column in sysprocesses gives that.
How can we see the plan of current running process. Sybase has sp_showplan.
Is there any equivalent stored proc in sql server.
Thanks.
Satwinder..Hi
The CPU column is the cumulative CPU usage, therefore you should be looking
at the rate of change for this value. You may want to look at SET STATISTICS
TIME. Also check out SQL Profiler which will show what statements (including
a duration and I/O details) are being run on the server.

want to run profiler and put more load on server.
By looking at processes can we tell which process is utilising max. cpu.

run the following querry
select spid,hostname,program_name, cpu from master..sysprocesses order by
cpu desc

which one is causing cpu to go 100.
Is this at all possible in SQL server.
Help...

If you are running at 100% for that length of time it sounds like you are
already in trouble, therefore the faster you fix it the better regardless of
short term inconvenience. A server side trace will use less resources than
using the GUI and using a disc not used by SQL Server for the output will
reduce any resource conflicts further. It would not require a great deal of
profiling to identify what is wrong especially if you already have a baseline
for the performance, and you will know exactly what piece of code the problem
is occuring. You could even automate the collection of a trace using a
perfmon alert.

exec sp_who2

>Satwinder..|||Hi,
get cpu consume for each program
select program_name, sum(cpu) from master..sysprocesses
group by program_name
u can querry system tables to get required info.

capture the query causing high cpu. Profiler does not capture already running
queries.

Yes, it will capture that when complete, even if it was started before
the profiler. I'm pretty certain of that, because I've done traces
catching both begins and ends, and had orphans!
