Hello
i am getting several of these errors in the SQL error logs:

SQL Server has encountered 6 occurrence(s) of IO requests taking longer than 15 seconds to complete on file [d:\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\data\tempdb.mdf] in database [tempdb] (2). The OS file handle is 0x000004FC. The offset of the latest long IO is: 0x000000438b2000

SQL Server has encountered 1 occurrence(s) of IO requests taking longer than 15 seconds to complete on file [d:\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\data\msdbdata.mdf] in database [msdb] (4). The OS file handle is 0x00000460. The offset of the latest long IO is: 0x00000004ed2000

but do not see any errors in the windows event viewer...so i am not sure if its a bad hardware, bad SQL or timeout adjustments


any help?

Steve

The message is informational, added by sp4. Looks like you used tempdb a lot.

Did you separate tempdb from other db files?

Must have been a hardware problem because the error is no longer showing in the logs since VMWARE move of machine

From my experience bad/slow disks are usually the culprit. Are you doing any operations during that period that hit tempdb pretty heavily? If so, do you have tempdb on it's own harddrive/array? You might take a look at your disk performance metrics in perfmon around the times you experience these problems and see if you see anything out of the ordinary. If you've done any performance benchmarks (using a tool like SQLIOStress, which is free from microsoft)on this disk during normal operations, this should show you how much you are off by.
