function Get-DbaDbMemoryUsage { <# .SYNOPSIS Determine buffer pool usage by database. .DESCRIPTION This command can be utilized to determine which databases on a given instance are consuming buffer pool memory. This command is based on query provided by Aaron Bertrand. Reference: https://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/2393/determine-sql-server-memory-use-by-database-and-object/ .PARAMETER SqlInstance The target SQL Server instance or instances. .PARAMETER SqlCredential Login to the target instance using alternative credentials. Accepts PowerShell credentials (Get-Credential). Windows Authentication, SQL Server Authentication, Active Directory - Password, and Active Directory - Integrated are all supported. For MFA support, please use Connect-DbaInstance.. .PARAMETER Database The database(s) to process - this list is auto-populated from the server. If unspecified, all databases will be processed. .PARAMETER ExcludeDatabase The database(s) to exclude. .PARAMETER IncludeSystemDb Switch to have the output include system database memory consumption. .PARAMETER EnableException By default, when something goes wrong we try to catch it, interpret it and give you a friendly warning message. This avoids overwhelming you with "sea of red" exceptions, but is inconvenient because it basically disables advanced scripting. Using this switch turns this "nice by default" feature off and enables you to catch exceptions with your own try/catch. .NOTES Tags: Memory, Database Author: Shawn Melton (@wsmelton), https://wsmelton.github.io Website: https://dbatools.io Copyright: (c) 2018 by dbatools, licensed under MIT License: MIT https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT .LINK https://dbatools.io/Get-DbaDbMemoryUsage .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Get-DbaDbMemoryUsage -SqlInstance sqlserver2014a Returns the buffer pool consumption for all user databases .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Get-DbaDbMemoryUsage -SqlInstance sqlserver2014a -IncludeSystemDb Returns the buffer pool consumption for all user databases and system databases .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Get-DbaDbMemoryUsage -SqlInstance sql1 -IncludeSystemDb -Database tempdb Returns the buffer pool consumption for tempdb database only .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Get-DbaDbMemoryUsage -SqlInstance sql2 -IncludeSystemDb -Exclude 'master','model','msdb','ResourceDb' Returns the buffer pool consumption for all user databases and tempdb database #> [CmdletBinding()] param ( [parameter(Mandatory, ValueFromPipeline)] [DbaInstance[]]$SqlInstance, [PSCredential]$SqlCredential, [parameter(ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName)] [object[]]$Database, [object[]]$ExcludeDatabase, [switch]$IncludeSystemDb, [switch]$EnableException ) begin { $sql = "DECLARE @total_buffer INT; SELECT @total_buffer = cntr_value FROM sys.dm_os_performance_counters WHERE RTRIM([object_name]) LIKE '%Buffer Manager' AND counter_name = 'Database Pages'; ;WITH src AS ( SELECT database_id, page_type, db_buffer_pages = COUNT_BIG(*) FROM sys.dm_os_buffer_descriptors GROUP BY database_id, page_type ) SELECT [DatabaseName] = CASE [database_id] WHEN 32767 THEN 'ResourceDb' ELSE DB_NAME([database_id]) END, page_type AS 'PageType', db_buffer_pages AS 'PageCount', (db_buffer_pages * 8)/1024 AS 'SizeMb', CAST(db_buffer_pages * 100.0 / @total_buffer AS FLOAT) AS 'PercentUsed' FROM src ORDER BY [DatabaseName];" } process { foreach ($instance in $SqlInstance) { try { $server = Connect-SqlInstance -SqlInstance $instance -SqlCredential $SqlCredential -MinimumVersion 9 } catch { Stop-Function -Message "Error occurred while establishing connection to $instance" -Category ConnectionError -ErrorRecord $_ -Target $instance -Continue } try { $results = $server.Query($sql) } catch { Stop-Function -Message "Issue collecting data" -Target $instance -ErrorRecord $_ } foreach ($row in $results) { if (Test-Bound 'Database') { if ($row.DatabaseName -notin $Database) { continue } } if (Test-Bound 'ExcludeDatabase') { if ($row.DatabaseName -in $ExcludeDatabase) { continue } } if (Test-Bound -Not 'IncludeSystemDb') { if ($row.DatabaseName -in 'master', 'model', 'msdb', 'tempdb', 'ResourceDb') { continue } } if ($row.PercentUsed -is [System.DBNull]) { $percentUsed = 0 } else { $percentUsed = [Math]::Round($row.PercentUsed) } [PSCustomObject]@{ ComputerName = $server.ComputerName InstanceName = $server.ServiceName SqlInstance = $server.DomainInstanceName Database = $row.DatabaseName PageType = $row.PageType PageCount = [int]$row.PageCount Size = [DbaSize]$row.SizeMb * 1024 PercentUsed = $percentUsed } | Select-DefaultView -ExcludeProperty 'PageCount' } } } } |
