  1. DBI410 SQL Power Tools - Enhance Your Effectiveness with Extended Events boB ‘The Tool Man’ Taylor MCA, MCM, MCSD.Net, MCT Microsoft Corporation

  3. Why are you here today? A. I am a SQL Server DBA B. I am a SQL Server Developer C. I am an application developer D. The title just sounded cool E. All the above

  4. Which tools do you use on a regular basis? A. SQL Server Trace B. SQL Server Profiler C. SQLDiag D. RML Utilities E. SQL Nexus F. All of the above What do they have in common? They all use SQL Server Trace

  5. They’ve taken away your tools! • SQL Profiler • SQL Trace • SQL Diag • RML Utilities • SQL Nexus Now what do you do?

  6. Don’t Despair • Good News – New tools are available! • Well… not totally new • Complete engine coverage • Full Tool Support • Bad News – There is a learning curve • Not as steep as it used to be • Good News – You will learn these new tools today!

  7. Extended Events Refresher • Real-time data capture • No performance penalty • Based on Event Tracing for Windows (ETW) • Full programmability support

  8. Extended EventsObject Model Events Types • Packages • Events and Actions • Filters and Predicates • Sessions • Targets Package(s) Targets Actions Maps Predicates Channels Module

  9. Packages in SQL Server 2012

  10. System Sessions • system_health • AlwaysOn_health

  11. What does that give me? • Errors reported • Non-yielding schedulers • Deadlocks • Internal and external wait info • sp_server_diagnostics output • Persisted to file or in memory

  12. Viewing a real-time snapshot of system_health • SELECTCAST(xet.target_dataasxml) • FROMsys.dm_xe_session_targetsxet • JOINsys.dm_xe_sessionsxe • ON (xe.address=xet.event_session_address) • WHERExe.name='system_health'

  14. What other things can you look at? • sqlserver package • Page splits – see Jonathan Kehayias blog • auto_stats • begin / end transaction • Over 500 different items! • sqlos package • wait_info • wait_info_external • spinlock_backoffs • Sixty different items

  15. But what about your other tools? • RML Utilities created by SQL Server escalation engineers • Those same engineers drove the UI in Management Studio • The Top 10 by CPU or Duration are there out of the box!

  16. demo RML Type Reporting boB ‘The Tool Man’ Taylor MCA, MCM, MCSD.Net, MCT Microsoft Corporation

  17. What about all my Profiler traces definitions? • Almost every Event and column available can be converted into Extended Event equivalents • 1. Create a new session • 2. Look up every trace event and column and convert to events and actions – add to your new session • 3. Determine if any filters that exists and add those as predicates • 4. Add target(s)

  18. CREATEEVENTSESSION[SampledQueries]ONSERVER ADDEVENTsqlserver.error_reported( ACTION(sqlserver.client_app_name,sqlserver.database_id, sqlserver.query_hash,sqlserver.session_id) WHERE ((([package0].[divides_by_uint64]([sqlserver].[session_id],(5)))AND([package0].[greater_than_uint64]([sqlserver].[database_id],(4))))AND([package0].[equal_boolean]([sqlserver].[is_system],(0))))), ADDEVENTsqlserver.sql_batch_completed( ACTION(sqlserver.client_app_name,sqlserver.database_id, sqlserver.query_hash,sqlserver.session_id) WHERE ((([package0].[divides_by_uint64]([sqlserver].[session_id],(5)))AND([package0].[greater_than_uint64]([sqlserver].[database_id],(4))))AND([package0].[equal_boolean]([sqlserver].[is_system],(0))))) ADDTARGETpackage0.ring_buffer WITH (MAX_MEMORY=4096 KB,EVENT_RETENTION_MODE=ALLOW_SINGLE_EVENT_LOSS,MAX_DISPATCH_LATENCY=30 SECONDS,MAX_EVENT_SIZE=0 KB,MEMORY_PARTITION_MODE=NONE,TRACK_CAUSALITY=ON,STARTUP_STATE=OFF) GO

  19. Am I serious? • That is a lot of work • It is if you attempt to do this manually • What we need is a tool! • boB ‘The Tool Man’ Taylor is happy to announce…
