Our database server has started acting weird and at this point I'm either
too sleep deprived or close to the problem to adequately diagnose the issue.
Basically to put it simply... when I look at the read disk queue length, the
disks queues are astronomical.
normally we're seeing a disk queue length of 0-1 on the disks that contain
the DB data and index. (i.e non clustered indexes are on a disk of their
own).
Writes are just fine.
Problem is, all our databases are on the same drive, and I can't seem to
nail down which DB, let alone which table is the source of all our reads.
Now, to really make things weirder.. during the busier times of the day
today (say 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM) things were fine.
At 4:20 PM or so it was like someone hit a switch and read disk queue length
jumped from 0-1 up to 100-200+... with spikes up to 1500 for a split second
or so.
What's the best way folks know to nail down this?
Thanks.
