Killing Sleeping Processes

Is there a way to Kill all 'sleeping' processes at once ?
Thanks.Hi,
Do not take a risk in killing all the sleeping process . But the way is,
select 'kill '+convert(char,spid) +char(10)+'go' from master..sysprocess
where status like 'sleep%'
Execute the output of the above script in query analyzer. This will kill all
the sleeping process
Thanks

Killing all sleeping processes

Hi All,
When I run sp_who2, I see there are many sleeping processes. Instead of
killing one by one, I was wondering if there is any way to kill all
sleeping processes programmatically (MS SQL Server 2000).
Thanks a million in advance.
Best regards,
mamunHi,
It is possible to do. But Killing the sleeping user process may not be a
good idea. A user processes
may be running for 40 minutes and when you check that process may be
sleeping and you code will kill that
process.
I recommend you to, not to automate this process in production server.
Script:-
use master
go
declare @.x varchar(1000)
set @.x=''
select @.x = @.x + 'Kill' + convert(varchar(5), spid)
from master.dbo.sysprocesses where status='Sleeping'
exec (@.x)
Schedule the script thru SQL Agent jobs. THe above script can take care of 1
user kill . If you have mutiple user, you have to slightly modify the script
Thanks

issue for the developer to resolve by managing the connection pool. If the
connections are created by people logging into Query Analyzer or Enterprise
Manager, then it's an issue for the DBA to resolve by perhaps restricting
logins and permissions.

Kill SPs then sqlserveragent stop working

We had a lot user connections with 'sleeping' mode in sysprocesses. I killed them with the status='sleeping', I realized that i might also killed some connections are not supposed to be killed.
After that, I checked event viewer, I saw 'Unable to read local eventlog (reason: The data area passed to a system call is too small). '
When I restarted the sqlserveragent service, I got'Could not start SQLserverAgent Service on local computer. The service did not return an error. This could be an internal Windows error or an internal service error. If this error persists, contact your sy
stem administrator. ' and also the following message appears in Application log '
SQLServerAgent could not be started (reason: SQLServerAgent must be able to connect to SQLServer as SysAdmin, but '(Unknown)' is not a member of the SysAdmin role). '
1) Reboot your server.
2) Don't kill processes you don't know for sure are safe. NEVER kill a
process with a SPID under 50. Those are system processes and need to be
there. Sleeping processes do not harm SQL and typically take very little
memory.

Is it SPID 2 (Lock Monitor), 3 (Lazy Writer) or 6?
What do you get back when you do DBCC Inputbuffer(<spid>)
What is your update statement that you are using?

This is my Feedback DBCC
EXECUTE msdb.dbo.sp_help_alert @.order_by = N'severity ASC, message_id
ASC, database_name DESC'

> What is your update statement that you are using?
The Sttemaent is an stored procedure,
this stored Procedure was canceld from me, two seconds after Run :-((
And cince i canceld the Procedur, every following querry is blocked from
this SPID.
An reboot is not allowed. Is an high priority Server.
Anyone an Idea.
