Background information

Alibaba Cloud reminds you that:

  • When you perform operations that have risks, such as modifying instance configurations or data, check the disaster recovery and fault tolerance capabilities of the instances to ensure data security.
  • Before you modify the configurations and data of instances including but not limited to ECS and RDS instances, we recommend that you create snapshots or enable RDS log backup.
  • If you have authorized or submitted security information such as the logon account and password in the Alibaba Cloud Management console, we recommend that you modify such information in a timely manner.
  1. Use a client to connect to an instance. For more information, see connect to an instance.
  2. Run the following SQL statement to view the memory usage of each database:
    select count(*)*8/1024 as 'cache size(MB)',
           case database_id
               when 32767 then 'ResourceDb'
               else DB_NAME(database_id)
           end as 'datebase'
    from sys.dm_os_buffer_descriptors
    group by DB_NAME(database_id)
             database_id
    order by 'cache size(MB)' desc
  3. To view the sys.dm_os_memory_clerks of a memory usage table, run the following SQL statement:
    select * from sys.dm_os_memory_clerks
