Syntax

fn_virtualfilestats ( { database_id | NULL } , { file_id | NULL } )

Arguments

database_id | NULL
Is the ID of the database. database_id is int, with no default. Specify NULL to return information for all databases in the instance of SQL Server.

file_id | NULL
Is the ID of the file. file_id is int, with no default. Specify NULL to return information for all files in the database.

Table Returned

Column Name	Data type	Description
DbId	smallint	Database ID.
FileId	smallint	File ID.
TimeStamp	int	Database timestamp at which the data was taken.
NumberReads	bigint	Number of reads issued on the file.
BytesRead	bigint	Number of bytes read issued on the file.
IoStallReadMS	bigint	Total amount of time, in milliseconds, that users waited for the read I/Os to complete on the file.
NumberWrites	bigint	Number of writes made on the file.
BytesWritten	bigint	Number of bytes written made on the file.
IoStallWriteMS	bigint	Total amount of time, in milliseconds, that users waited for the write I/Os to complete on the file.
IoStallMS	bigint	Sum of IoStallReadMS and IoStallWriteMS.
FileHandle	bigint	Value of the file handle.
BytesOnDisk	bigint	Physical file size (count of bytes) on disk. For database files, this is the same value as size in sys.database_files, but is expressed in bytes rather than pages. For database snapshot sparse files, this is the space the operating system is using for the file.

Remarks

fn_virtualfilestats is a system table-valued function that gives statistical information, such as the total number of I/Os performed on a file. You can use this function to help keep track of the length of time users have to wait to read or write to a file. The function also helps identify the files that encounter large numbers of I/O activity.

Permissions

Requires VIEW SERVER STATE permission on the server.

Examples

A. Displaying statistical information for a database

The following example displays statistical information for file ID 1 in the database with an ID of 1.

SELECT *
FROM fn_virtualfilestats(1, 1);
GO

B. Displaying statistical information for a named database and file

The following example displays statistical information for the log file in the AdventureWorks sample database. The system function DB_ID is used to specify the database_id parameter.

SELECT *
FROM fn_virtualfilestats(DB_ID(N'AdventureWorks'), 2);
GO

C. Displaying statistical information for all databases and files

The following example displays statistical information for all files in all databases in the instance of SQL Server.

SELECT *
FROM fn_virtualfilestats(NULL,NULL);
GO
