Provides transaction log space usage statistics for all databases. It can also be used to reset wait and latch statistics.
Transact-SQL Syntax Conventions
DBCC SQLPERF ( [ LOGSPACE ] | [ "sys.dm_os_latch_stats" , CLEAR ] | [ "sys.dm_os_wait_stats" , CLEAR ] ) [WITH NO_INFOMSGS ]
Returns the current size of the transaction log and the percentage of log space used for each database. You can use this information to monitor the amount of space used in a transaction log.
Resets the latch statistics. For more information, see sys.dm_os_latch_stats (Transact-SQL).
Resets the wait statistics. For more information, see sys.dm_os_wait_stats (Transact-SQL).
Suppresses all informational messages that have severity levels from 0 through 10.
The following table describes the columns in the result set.
Database Name
Name of the database for the log statistics displayed.
Log Size (MB)
Current size allocated to the log. This value is always smaller than the amount originally allocated for log space because the Database Engine reserves a small amount of disk space for internal header information.
Log Space Used (%)
Percentage of the log file currently occupied with transaction log information.
Status
Status of the log file. Always 0.
The transaction log records each transaction made in a database. For more information see Introduction to Transaction Logs.
To run DBCC SQLPERF(LOGSPACE) requires VIEW SERVER STATE permission on the server. To reset wait and latch statistics requires ALTER SERVER STATE permission on the server.
The following example displays LOGSPACE information for all databases contained in the instance of SQL Server.
LOGSPACE
DBCC SQLPERF(LOGSPACE); GO
Here is the result set.
Database Name Log Size (MB) Log Space Used (%) Status ------------- ------------- ------------------ ----------- master 3.99219 14.3469 0 tempdb 1.99219 1.64216 0 model 1.0 12.7953 0 msdb 3.99219 17.0132 0 AdventureWorks 19.554688 17.748701 0
The following example resets the wait statistics for the instance of SQL Server.
DBCC SQLPERF("sys.dm_os_wait_stats",CLEAR);
