Applies to: SQL Server Azure SQL Database Azure SQL Managed Instance Azure Synapse Analytics Analytics Platform System (PDW) SQL analytics endpoint in Microsoft Fabric Warehouse in Microsoft Fabric

Returns information about each request that is executing in SQL Server. For more information about requests, see the Thread and Task Architecture Guide.

Note

To call this from dedicated SQL pool in Azure Synapse Analytics or Analytics Platform System (PDW), see sys.dm_pdw_exec_requests (Transact-SQL). For serverless SQL pool or Microsoft Fabric use sys.dm_exec_requests.

Column name	Data type	Description
`session_id`	smallint	ID of the session to which this request is related. Not nullable.
`request_id`	int	ID of the request. Unique in the context of the session. Not nullable.
`start_time`	datetime	Timestamp when the request arrived. Not nullable.
`status`	nvarchar(30)	Status of the request. Can be one of the following values: background rollback running runnable sleeping suspended Not nullable.
`command`	nvarchar(32)	Identifies the current type of command that is being processed. Common command types include the following values: SELECT INSERT UPDATE DELETE BACKUP LOG BACKUP DATABASE DBCC FOR The text of the request can be retrieved by using `sys.dm_exec_sql_text` with the corresponding `sql_handle` for the request. Internal system processes set the command based on the type of task they perform. Tasks can include the following values: LOCK MONITOR CHECKPOINTLAZY WRITER Not nullable.
`sql_handle`	varbinary(64)	Is a token that uniquely identifies the batch or stored procedure that the query is part of. Nullable.
`statement_start_offset`	int	Indicates, in bytes, beginning with 0, the starting position of the currently executing statement for the currently executing batch or persisted object. Can be used together with the `sql_handle`, the `statement_end_offset`, and the `sys.dm_exec_sql_text` dynamic management function to retrieve the currently executing statement for the request. Nullable.
`statement_end_offset`	int	Indicates, in bytes, starting with 0, the ending position of the currently executing statement for the currently executing batch or persisted object. Can be used together with the `sql_handle`, the `statement_start_offset`, and the `sys.dm_exec_sql_text` dynamic management function to retrieve the currently executing statement for the request. Nullable.
`plan_handle`	varbinary(64)	Is a token that uniquely identifies a query execution plan for a batch that is currently executing. Nullable.
`database_id`	smallint	ID of the database the request is executing against. Not nullable. In Azure SQL Database, the values are unique within a single database or an elastic pool, but not within a logical server.
`user_id`	int	ID of the user who submitted the request. Not nullable.
`connection_id`	uniqueidentifier	ID of the connection on which the request arrived. Nullable.
`blocking_session_id`	smallint	ID of the session that is blocking the request. If this column is `NULL` or `0`, the request isn't blocked, or the session information of the blocking session isn't available (or can't be identified). For more information, see Understand and resolve SQL Server blocking problems. -2 = The blocking resource is owned by an orphaned distributed transaction. -3 = The blocking resource is owned by a deferred recovery transaction. -4 = `session_id` of the blocking latch owner couldn't be determined at this time because of internal latch state transitions. `-5` = `session_id` of the blocking latch owner couldn't be determined because it isn't tracked for this latch type (for example, for an SH latch). By itself, `blocking_session_id` `-5` doesn't indicate a performance problem. `-5` is an indication that the session is waiting on an asynchronous action to complete. Before `-5` was introduced, the same session would have shown `blocking_session_id` `0`, even though it was still in a wait state. Depending on workload, observing `blocking_session_id = -5` may be a common occurrence.
`wait_type`	nvarchar(60)	If the request is currently blocked, this column returns the type of wait. Nullable. For information about types of waits, see sys.dm_os_wait_stats (Transact-SQL).
`wait_time`	int	If the request is currently blocked, this column returns the duration in milliseconds, of the current wait. Not nullable.
`last_wait_type`	nvarchar(60)	If this request has previously been blocked, this column returns the type of the last wait. Not nullable.
`wait_resource`	nvarchar(256)	If the request is currently blocked, this column returns the resource for which the request is currently waiting. Not nullable.
`open_transaction_count`	int	Number of transactions that are open for this request. Not nullable.
`open_resultset_count`	int	Number of result sets that are open for this request. Not nullable.
`transaction_id`	bigint	ID of the transaction in which this request executes. Not nullable.

Remarks

To execute code that is outside SQL Server (for example, extended stored procedures and distributed queries), a thread has to execute outside the control of the non-preemptive scheduler. To do this, a worker switches to preemptive mode. Time values returned by this dynamic management view don't include time spent in preemptive mode.

When executing parallel requests in row mode, SQL Server assigns a worker thread to coordinate the worker threads responsible for completing tasks assigned to them. In this DMV, only the coordinator thread is visible for the request. The columns reads, writes, logical_reads, and row_count are not updated for the coordinator thread. The columns wait_type, wait_time, last_wait_type, wait_resource, and granted_query_memory are only updated for the coordinator thread. For more information, see the Thread and Task Architecture Guide.

The wait_resource column contains similar information to resource_description in sys.dm_tran_locks (Transact-SQL) but is formatted differently.

Permissions

If the user has VIEW SERVER STATE permission on the server, the user sees all executing sessions on the instance of SQL Server; otherwise, the user sees only the current session. VIEW SERVER STATE can't be granted in Azure SQL Database so sys.dm_exec_requests is always limited to the current connection.

In availability group scenarios, if the secondary replica is set to read-intent only, the connection to the secondary must specify its application intent in connection string parameters by adding applicationintent=readonly. Otherwise, the access check for sys.dm_exec_requests doesn't pass for databases in the availability group, even if VIEW SERVER STATE permission is present.

For SQL Server 2022 (16.x) and later versions, sys.dm_exec_requests requires VIEW SERVER PERFORMANCE STATE permission on the server.

Examples

A. Find the query text for a running batch

The following example queries sys.dm_exec_requests to find the interesting query and copy its sql_handle from the output.

SELECT * FROM sys.dm_exec_requests;
GO

Then, to obtain the statement text, use the copied sql_handle with system function sys.dm_exec_sql_text(sql_handle).

SELECT * FROM sys.dm_exec_sql_text(< copied sql_handle >);
GO

B. Find all locks that a running batch is holding

The following example queries sys.dm_exec_requests to find the interesting batch and copy its transaction_id from the output.

SELECT * FROM sys.dm_exec_requests;
GO

Then, to find lock information, use the copied transaction_id with the system function sys.dm_tran_locks.

SELECT * FROM sys.dm_tran_locks
WHERE request_owner_type = N'TRANSACTION'
    AND request_owner_id = < copied transaction_id >;
GO

C. Find all currently blocked requests

The following example queries sys.dm_exec_requests to find information about blocked requests.

SELECT session_id,
    status,
    blocking_session_id,
    wait_type,
    wait_time,
    wait_resource,
    transaction_id
FROM sys.dm_exec_requests
WHERE status = N'suspended';
GO

D. Order existing requests by CPU

SELECT
    [req].[session_id],
    [req].[start_time],
    [req].[cpu_time] AS [cpu_time_ms],
    OBJECT_NAME([ST].[objectid], [ST].[dbid]) AS [ObjectName],
    SUBSTRING(
        REPLACE(
            REPLACE(
                SUBSTRING(
                    [ST].[text], ([req].[statement_start_offset] / 2) + 1,
                    ((CASE [req].[statement_end_offset]
                            WHEN -1 THEN DATALENGTH([ST].[text])
                            ELSE [req].[statement_end_offset]
                        END - [req].[statement_start_offset]
                        ) / 2
                    ) + 1
                ), CHAR(10), ' '
            ), CHAR(13), ' '
        ), 1, 512
    ) AS [statement_text]
FROM
    [sys].[dm_exec_requests] AS [req]
    CROSS APPLY [sys].dm_exec_sql_text([req].[sql_handle]) AS [ST]
ORDER BY
    [req].[cpu_time] DESC;
GO
