sys.dm_exec_session_wait_stats (Transact-SQL)

[!INCLUDEtsql-appliesto-ss2016-asdb-xxxx-xxx-md]

Returns information about all the waits encountered by threads that executed for each session. You can use this view to diagnose performance issues with the [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] session and also with specific queries and batches. This view returns session the same information that is aggregated for sys.dm_os_wait_stats (Transact-SQL) but provides the session_id number as well.

Applies to: [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] ( [!INCLUDEssSQL15] and later).

Column name Data type Description
session_id smallint The id of the session.
wait_type nvarchar(60) Name of the wait type. For more information, see sys.dm_os_wait_stats (Transact-SQL).
waiting_tasks_count bigint Number of waits on this wait type. This counter is incremented at the start of each wait.
wait_time_ms bigint Total wait time for this wait type in milliseconds. This time is inclusive of signal_wait_time_ms.
max_wait_time_ms bigint Maximum wait time on this wait type.
signal_wait_time_ms bigint Difference between the time that the waiting thread was signaled and when it started running.

Remarks

This DMV resets the information for a session when the session is opened, or when the session is reset (if connection pooling),

For information about the wait types, see sys.dm_os_wait_stats (Transact-SQL).

Permissions

If the user has VIEW SERVER STATE permission on the server, the user will see all executing sessions on the instance of [!INCLUDEssNoVersion]; otherwise, the user will see only the current session.
