Dynamic Management Views Blog Post Series Coming To A Screen Near You

Dynamic Management Views Blog Post Series Coming To A Screen Near You

Since I don't always know what to write I decided to give myself enough material for at least 6 months (if I cover 1 view a week). So here it is I will write about the Dynamic Management Views in SQL server 2005. The first view that I will cover is sys.dm_exec_sessions. You can use sys.dm_exec_sessions instead of DBCC USEROPTIONS only it's much better since you can query multiple SPID's

I will have the first post ready about 4:30 PM EST today

Here is a list of all the Dynamic Management Views in SQL Server 2005, I will link the ones that I write about to the post so that you can access all of this from 1 post (in theory)
