The system in this example has 32Gb of physical ram so I have chosen to give each database 2Gb. Right click on the name of the SQL Instance and choose properties:Ĭlick on the “Memory” option on the left hand side and adjust the memory figure as appropriate for your system. Repeat the following procedure for each database: Enter:Īll being well you should now have SQL Management Studio with all three databases listed like this: Once again to go File -> “Connect Object Explorer”. Once connected to your database, connect to the other two databases at the same time by going to File -> “Connect Object Explorer”. In this example the server is simply called SBS: Once SQL Server Management Studio has opened you will be prompted to connect to a server, enter SERVERNAME\SBSMONITORING. Reduce memory usage of the SBSMONITORING, SHAREPOINT and Windows Internal Databases Start -> All Programs -> Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 -> Right click on “SQL Server Management Studio” and choose, run as administrator: Open SQL Server 2008 Management studio by doing the following: We can use one instance of SQL Server Management Studio to manipulate all three instances, which makes things a bit easier. Given that SBS 2011 supports a maximum of 32Gb of memory, restricting the memory usage on the databases can give you some of your memory back and improve the performance of the machine.īecause all three databases are separate instances you need to connect and modify each one separately. WINDOWS INTERNAL DATABASE (MICROSOFT#SSEE)Īll three of them have the potential to consume a great deal of memory and by default the memory limit on these instances is set to 2147483647 MB – which is 2048 Terabytes.

In particular I have noticed extremely High memory usage in SBS 2011 by the DataCollectorSvc.exe process, it was using around 12 GB!

SBS 2011 in it’s default configuration will experience very high memory usage caused by the three SQL databases that are running and in my experience will eventually cause poor performance where physical memory is being consumed by these databases.
