From: ken on 5 Jul 2010 03:49 Hi All, we found that the sql server can't connect and the log show below message, but we haven't do any shutdown action before, but the physical available memory is 1% at that time, anyone know that if the available memoery not enought will cause below message, thanks. 06/30/2010 10:14:19,spid5s,Unknown,SQL Trace was stopped due to server shutdown. Trace ID = '1'. This is an informational message only; no user action is required. Regards, Ken

The message as such is nothing strange: SQL Server was shut down, and as part of the shutdown the "black box" trace was stopped, which is what this message says. But are you trying to say that no one issued a shutdown request and SQL Server somehow stopped itself or was stopped by the OS without human interaction? I've never heard of this, at least not in this clean way. (SQL Server could of course crash and perish that way.) Having only 1% of free memory is of course a little extreme, but since SQL Server normally allocates as much memory it thinks it needs and then yields if some other process needs that memory, it may not be that much cause for alarm anyway. From the little information you give, it's impossible to say something authoratively, but my guess would be that some person did shutdown SQL Server after all. -- Erland Sommarskog, SQL Server MVP, esquel(a)sommarskog.se Links for SQL Server Books Online: SQL 2008: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/sqlserver/cc514207.aspx SQL 2005: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/sqlserver/bb895970.aspx SQL 2000: http://www.microsoft.com/sql/prodinfo/previousversions/books.mspx
From: ken on 5 Jul 2010 21:03 Thanks Erland Sommarskog, should i limit the sqlserver.exe memory to prevent abnormal problem ?

It's difficult to say without further knowledge about your system. Which version and edition of SQL Server do you have? What architecture do you have, x86 or x32? How much memory is there in the box? Are there other applications runnings in the machine? Is the machine physical or virtual? If the latter, which virtualising software do you use? -- Erland Sommarskog, SQL Server MVP, esquel(a)sommarskog.se Links for SQL Server Books Online: SQL 2008: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/sqlserver/cc514207.aspx SQL 2005: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/sqlserver/bb895970.aspx SQL 2000: http://www.microsoft.com/sql/prodinfo/previousversions/books.mspx

Hi Erland Sommarskog, we found the problem cause the sql server clock late 5 min, and 5 min later we do the shutdown action. but how can we fix the problem of the 1% remain memory problem we are using X64 sql server 2005 cluster and run on window server 03 The total memory of sql server is 16G ram The machine is physical run in FT server Regards, Ken "Erland Sommarskog" <esquel(a)sommarskog.se> ???????:Xns9DAD6F849808Yazorman(a)127.0.0.1... > ken (keung61581(a)yahoo.com.hk) writes: >> should i limit the sqlserver.exe memory to prevent abnormal problem ? > > It's difficult to say without further knowledge about your system. > > Which version and edition of SQL Server do you have? > > What architecture do you have, x86 or x32? > > How much memory is there in the box? > > Are there other applications runnings in the machine? > > Is the machine physical or virtual?
