I need to cover few scenarios connected to SQL statements or procedures and their Execution plans and IO statistics:
I decided to use Extended Events as lightweight solution for such a scenarios.
I found following tree evens very usefull to get requested data.
-
sqlserver.query_post_execution_showplan
- to get execution plan of running query
-
sqlserver.sql_statement_completed
- to get IO informations regarding executed query
-
sqlserver.sp_statement_completed
- to get IO informations regarding executed stored procedure¨
Bellow you can find simple script creating above mentioned events with resctriction to concreted session and database.
CREATE EVENT SESSION Test ON SERVER
ADD EVENT sqlserver.query_post_execution_showplan -- ,
(
ACTION (sqlserver.database_name,
sqlserver.plan_handle,
sqlserver.query_plan_hash,
sqlserver.session_id,
sqlserver.sql_text,
sqlserver.username)
WHERE
sqlserver.session_id=58
AND sqlserver.database_id = 8
)
,
ADD EVENT sqlserver.sql_statement_completed -- ,
(
ACTION (sqlserver.database_name,
sqlserver.plan_handle,
sqlserver.query_plan_hash,
sqlserver.session_id,
sqlserver.sql_text,
sqlserver.username)
WHERE
sqlserver.session_id=58
AND sqlserver.database_id = 8
),
ADD EVENT sqlserver.sp_statement_completed -- ,
(
ACTION (sqlserver.database_name,
sqlserver.plan_handle,
sqlserver.query_plan_hash,
sqlserver.session_id,
sqlserver.sql_text,
sqlserver.username)
WHERE
sqlserver.session_id=58
AND sqlserver.database_id = 8
)
ADD TARGET package0.ring_buffer (SET max_memory = 4096 ) WITH (max_dispatch_latency = 1 seconds)
Let’s start the session.
ALTER EVENT SESSION Test ON SERVER STATE = START
Here is an example to get data from the session.

;
SELECT * FROM #finalset UNION ALL SELECT * FROM #finalsetII UNION ALL SELECT * FROM #finalsetIII
Do not forget to clear your session
IF EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sys.server_event_sessions WHERE name = 'Test')
BEGIN
DROP EVENT SESSION Test ON SERVER;
END
In next post I will publish SQL routines in which above mentioned script will be encapsulated.
