Hi

My company has multiple SQL 2005 instances on Shared Plateform (Windows with 16 CPU) Everybody single instance is sharing all 16 CPU. Now I have been given task to track the performance of one of application linked on one instance which shares all 16 CPUs

Now I have profiler running with default setting only for that SQL instance, and to correlate data from Perfmon, I configure specific SQL objects and some specifc system object counters, now I am confued with CPU (Process or Processor % Processor Time counter)

In shared enviornment how should I track CPU utilization for one single SQL SERVER Instance?

Any expert advise?
Thanks

How about perfmon
performance object - process
select counters from list - % processor time
select instances from list - choose you sql server instance process

That is great, but how can I find which instance is running on which index, currently I have 14 instnaces.
So the question is how to identify which instance is on which index in perfmon?
Thanks in advance

What do you mean by Index in instances? Can you explain?

Well, in Perfmon, under process-> % Processort Time, then on right hand side I see list of instances (lots of entries including (sqlservr,sqlservr#1,sqlservr#2 upto sqlservr#13), Now if I look at my SQL Server 2005 configuration manager I see list of named instances (ABC, XYZ, YYY), now How would I know which on in Perfmon should relate to named instance, so I can track the right instance out of 14.

I hope this explains, if not please let me know...
