BUG #: 56762 (SQLBUG_70)
SYMPTOMS
According to the SQL Server Books Online, the Host Process ID in Profiler shows the following:
(mk:@MSITStore:C:\MSSQL7\BOOKS\SQLBOL.CHM::/html/mon_perf_13.htm):
|
Host Process ID | ID assigned by the host computer to the process in which the client application runs. This data column is populated if the host process ID is provided by the client. To determine the host ID, use the HOST_ID function.
|
If you are tracing a Query Analyzer session to SQL Server, the Host Process ID in Profiler should have the same value as the SELECT HOST_ID() run from the Query Analyzer and both should return the PID of the Query Analyzer process (which still shows up as isqlw.exe in Task Manager).
When you actually perform the trace, the value that displays under the Host Process ID field in Profiler is different from the value returned by SELECT HOST_ID(). However, the value returned by SELECT HOST_ID() in the Query Analyzer matches the PID for isqlw.exe as shown by Task Manager.
