It has done this 1 time(s).Check the end of the SQL Server error log for clues. If the error log ends abruptly, this means that it was shut down by force. For instance, if SQL Server was terminated by using Task Manager, the SQL Server error report wouldn't reveal any information about any internal problems that might have caused the process to shut down.ResolutionEnsure that authorized database and system administrators have access to the system to minimize unexpected terminations of the SQL Server service. After you examine the event logs, investigate why a service had to be terminated unexpectedly.If a SQL Server internal health issue caused SQL Server to terminate unexpectedly, there might be clues of a possible fatal exception (including a memory dump diagnostic file being generated) at the end of the SQL error log. Review the clues and take the necessary action. If you find a dump file, consider contacting Microsoft SQL Server support, and provide the SQL Server error log and dump file content for further investigation.Lease time-out: An Always On health eventAlways On uses a "lease" mechanism to monitor the health of the computer on which SQL Server is installed. The default lease time-out is 20 seconds.SymptomsHere's a sample output of an Always On lease time-out from the cluster log. You can search these strings to locate a lease time-out in the cluster log.00001a0c.00001c5c::2023/01/04-15:36:54.762 ERR [RES] SQL Server Availability Group : [hadrag] Availability Group lease is no longer valid 00001a0c.00001c5c::2023/01/04-15:36:54.762 ERR [RES] SQL Server Availability Group : [hadrag] Resource Alive result 0. 00001a0c.00001c5c::2023/01/04-15:36:54.762 WARN [RES] SQL Server Availability Group: [hadrag] Lease timeout detected, logging perf counter data collected so far00001a0c.00001c5c::2023/01/04-15:36:54.762 WARN [RES] SQL Server Availability Group: [hadrag] Date/Time, Processor time(%), Available memory(bytes), Avg disk read(secs), Avg disk write(secs)00001a0c.00001c5c::2023/01/04-15:36:54.762 WARN [RES] SQL Server Availability Group: [hadrag] 1/4/2023 15:35:57.0, 98.068572, 509227008.000000, 0.000395, 0.000350 00001a0c.00001c5c::2023/01/04-15:36:54.762 WARN [RES] SQL Server Availability Group: [hadrag] 1/4/2023 15:36:7.0, 12.314941, 451817472.000000, 0.000278, 0.000266 00001a0c.00001c5c::2023/01/04-15:36:54.762 WARN [RES] SQL Server Availability Group: [hadrag] 1/4/2023 15:36:17.0, 17.270742, 416096256.000000, 0.000376, 0.000292 00001a0c.00001c5c::2023/01/04-15:36:54.762 WARN [RES] SQL Server Availability Group: [hadrag] 1/4/2023 15:36:27.0, 38.399895, 416301056.000000, 0.000446, 0.000304 00001a0c.00001c5c::2023/01/04-15:36:54.762 WARN [RES] SQL Server Availability Group: [hadrag] 1/4/2023 15:36:37.0, 100.000000, 417517568.000000, 0.001292, 0.000666For more information about lease time-out, see the Lease Mechanism section in Mechanics and guidelines of lease, cluster, and health check timeouts for Always On availability groups.Diagnose and resolve Always On lease time-out eventsThere are two main issues that can trigger a lease time-out:SQL Server memory dump: When SQL Server detects certainReleased: SQL Server Management Pack (.0)

You can determine if there's an I/O problem by examining the latency counter Avg Disk Sec/Transfer. The following code snippet indicates one way to collect this information through PowerShell. It gathers counters on all disk volumes: "_total". Change to a specific drive volume (for example, "D:"). To find which volumes host your database files, run the following query in your SQL Server:#replace with server\instance or server for default instance$sqlserver_instance = "server\instance" sqlcmd -E -S $sqlserver_instance -Q "SELECT DISTINCT LEFT(volume_mount_point, 32) AS volume_mount_point ` FROM sys.master_files f ` CROSS APPLY sys.dm_os_volume_stats(f.database_id, f.file_id) vs"Gather Avg Disk Sec/Transfer metrics on your volume of choice:clear$cntr = 0 # replace with your server name,.

This activates monitoring of some, but not all SQL Server health profiles. At the default level, Always On triggers a health event when SQL Server produces too many dump files, a write-access violation, or an orphaned spinlock. Setting the availability group up to level four or five will expand the types of SQL Server health issues that are monitored. For more information about the SQL Server health Always On monitors, see Configure a flexible automatic failover policy for an availability group - SQL Server Always On.To identify the Always On specific health issue, follow these steps:Open the SQL Server cluster diagnostic extended event logs on the primary replica to the time of the suspected SQL Server health event occurred.In SSMS, go to File > Open, and then select Merge Extended Event Files.Select Add.In the File Open dialog box, navigate to the files in the SQL Server \LOG directory.Press Control, select the files whose names match __SQLDIAG_xxx.xel, and then select Open > OK.You'll see a new tabbed window in SSMS that includes the extended events, as shown in the following screenshot.To investigate a SQL Server health issue, locate the component_health_result whose state_desc value is error. Here's an example of a system component event that reported an error back to Always On health monitoring:Double-click the data column in the lower pane. This opens the detailed component data in a new SSMS window pane for review. Here's what the system component data looks like:Notice that the 'totalDumprequests=186' data indicates there have been too many dump file diagnostic events generated on this SQL Server. This is the reason that the system component reported an error state. When Always On health monitoring receives this error state, it triggers an availability group health event.

It has done this 1 time(s).Check the end of the SQL Server error log for clues. If the error log ends abruptly, this means that it was shut down by force. For instance, if SQL Server was terminated by using Task Manager, the SQL Server error report wouldn't reveal any information about any internal problems that might have caused the process to shut down.ResolutionEnsure that authorized database and system administrators have access to the system to minimize unexpected terminations of the SQL Server service. After you examine the event logs, investigate why a service had to be terminated unexpectedly.If a SQL Server internal health issue caused SQL Server to terminate unexpectedly, there might be clues of a possible fatal exception (including a memory dump diagnostic file being generated) at the end of the SQL error log. Review the clues and take the necessary action. If you find a dump file, consider contacting Microsoft SQL Server support, and provide the SQL Server error log and dump file content for further investigation.Lease time-out: An Always On health eventAlways On uses a "lease" mechanism to monitor the health of the computer on which SQL Server is installed. The default lease time-out is 20 seconds.SymptomsHere's a sample output of an Always On lease time-out from the cluster log. You can search these strings to locate a lease time-out in the cluster log.00001a0c.00001c5c::2023/01/04-15:36:54.762 ERR [RES] SQL Server Availability Group : [hadrag] Availability Group lease is no longer valid 00001a0c.00001c5c::2023/01/04-15:36:54.762 ERR [RES] SQL Server Availability Group : [hadrag] Resource Alive result 0. 00001a0c.00001c5c::2023/01/04-15:36:54.762 WARN [RES] SQL Server Availability Group: [hadrag] Lease timeout detected, logging perf counter data collected so far00001a0c.00001c5c::2023/01/04-15:36:54.762 WARN [RES] SQL Server Availability Group: [hadrag] Date/Time, Processor time(%), Available memory(bytes), Avg disk read(secs), Avg disk write(secs)00001a0c.00001c5c::2023/01/04-15:36:54.762 WARN [RES] SQL Server Availability Group: [hadrag] 1/4/2023 15:35:57.0, 98.068572, 509227008.000000, 0.000395, 0.000350 00001a0c.00001c5c::2023/01/04-15:36:54.762 WARN [RES] SQL Server Availability Group: [hadrag] 1/4/2023 15:36:7.0, 12.314941, 451817472.000000, 0.000278, 0.000266 00001a0c.00001c5c::2023/01/04-15:36:54.762 WARN [RES] SQL Server Availability Group: [hadrag] 1/4/2023 15:36:17.0, 17.270742, 416096256.000000, 0.000376, 0.000292 00001a0c.00001c5c::2023/01/04-15:36:54.762 WARN [RES] SQL Server Availability Group: [hadrag] 1/4/2023 15:36:27.0, 38.399895, 416301056.000000, 0.000446, 0.000304 00001a0c.00001c5c::2023/01/04-15:36:54.762 WARN [RES] SQL Server Availability Group: [hadrag] 1/4/2023 15:36:37.0, 100.000000, 417517568.000000, 0.001292, 0.000666For more information about lease time-out, see the Lease Mechanism section in Mechanics and guidelines of lease, cluster, and health check timeouts for Always On availability groups.Diagnose and resolve Always On lease time-out eventsThere are two main issues that can trigger a lease time-out:SQL Server memory dump: When SQL Server detects certain

You can check SQL Server error logs on your system by running the following PowerShell command:Get-ChildItem -Path "c:\program files\microsoft sql server\mssql*" -Recurse -Include Errorlog | Select-String "occurrence(s) of I/O requests taking longer than Longer than 15 secs"Also, for more information on this error, see the MSSQLSERVER_833 section.Step 2: Do Perfmon Counters indicate I/O latency?If SQL Server reports I/O latency, refer to OS counters. You can determine if there's an I/O problem by examining the latency counter Avg Disk Sec/Transfer. The following code snippet indicates one way to collect this information through PowerShell. It gathers counters on all disk volumes: "_total". Change to a specific drive volume (for example, "D:"). To find which volumes host your database files, run the following query in your SQL Server:#replace with server\instance or server for default instance$sqlserver_instance = "server\instance" sqlcmd -E -S $sqlserver_instance -Q "SELECT DISTINCT LEFT(volume_mount_point, 32) AS volume_mount_point ` FROM sys.master_files f ` CROSS APPLY sys.dm_os_volume_stats(f.database_id, f.file_id) vs"Gather Avg Disk Sec/Transfer metrics on your volume of choice:clear$cntr = 0 # replace with your server name,

This activates monitoring of some, but not all SQL Server health profiles. At the default level, Always On triggers a health event when SQL Server produces too many dump files, a write-access violation, or an orphaned spinlock. Setting the availability group up to level four or five will expand the types of SQL Server health issues that are monitored. For more information about the SQL Server health Always On monitors, see Configure a flexible automatic failover policy for an availability group - SQL Server Always On.To identify the Always On specific health issue, follow these steps:Open the SQL Server cluster diagnostic extended event logs on the primary replica to the time of the suspected SQL Server health event occurred.In SSMS, go to File > Open, and then select Merge Extended Event Files.Select Add.In the File Open dialog box, navigate to the files in the SQL Server \LOG directory.Press Control, select the files whose names match __SQLDIAG_xxx.xel, and then select Open > OK.You'll see a new tabbed window in SSMS that includes the extended events, as shown in the following screenshot.To investigate a SQL Server health issue, locate the component_health_result whose state_desc value is error. Here's an example of a system component event that reported an error back to Always On health monitoring:Double-click the data column in the lower pane. This opens the detailed component data in a new SSMS window pane for review. Here's what the system component data looks like:Notice that the 'totalDumprequests=186' data indicates there have been too many dump file diagnostic events generated on this SQL Server. This is the reason that the system component reported an error state. When Always On health monitoring receives this error state, it triggers an availability group health event. You can also
