Re: SQL Server 2005 on 2 CPUs



Salvador,

Unless you are running SQL Server 2005 Express (limited to 1 processor) or
have used the affinity_mask option, it should use all processors available.
About affinity_mask:

If you log onto your SQL Server box and run Task Manager, you should quickly
see (provided the server is doing something) that both CPUs are being hit by
the work.

Hi all,

Is there a way that I would be able to know that the 2 CPUs in my SQL
Server
2005 are both utilized?

Thanks in advance!
