Dear All,
Can some one please assist me on the below point.
In our environment, Max Worker Threads Setting has been set to 500 but Best Practice Analyzer suggested to set it to 0.
Please advise.
Thanks and Regards,
Ravichandra.

Thanks, But it would be better to set max worker threads to 288 as per the below link and also default setting for SQLServer2005 is 0.
http://sqlblogcasts.com/blogs/thepremiers/archive/2007/05/17/max-worker-threads-configuration-in-sql-server-2005.aspx
Note: we have 32-bit O/s,SQLServer2005 and 8 processors(32 GB Memory).
Please advise.
Thanks and Regards,
Ravichandra.

Since this question is posted under SQL 2000 forum, I had given the URL for SQL Server 2000.

If you have SQL 2005, why are you posting in the SQL 2000 forums? People are going to assume you are running SQL 2000 and give you an answer appropriate to that version.

It is better to leave this settings to Dynamic. Also the link that you had provided mentions how SQL Server calculates that value "automatically".

Apologies, I will post the queries accordingly going forward.
Thanks Pradeep.
You mean,I can leave max worker threads Option to default i.e, 0 in SQLServer 2005.
Is it fine ?
Regards,
Ravichandra.

Thanks Pradeep,
Iam facing the below error after changing the Max Worker Threads Setting from 500 to 0.
In Event viewer and SQLServerLog
Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State: 27.Login failed for user 'xxxxxx'. [CLIENT: 192.168.30.180]
Error: 18056, Severity: 20, State: 27.The client was unable to reuse a session with SPID 187, which had been reset for connection pooling. This error may have been caused by an earlier operation failing. Check the error logs for failed operations immediately before this error message.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
in SQLServer Agent Error log
"2010-11-29 10:05:44 -
! [382] Logon to server '(local)' failed (ConnUpdateJobActivity_NextScheduledRunDate) 2010-11-29 18:08:29
! [298] SQLServer Error: 258, Shared Memory Provider: Timeout error [258]. [SQLSTATE 08001] 2010-11-29 18:08:29
! [165] ODBC Error: 0, Login timeout expired [SQLSTATE HYT00] 2010-11-29 18:08:29
! [298] SQLServer Error: 258, Unable to complete login process due to delay in prelogin response [SQLSTATE 08001] "
Can you please advise whether this issue is related to Max Worker Threads Setting and
also I can see CPU usage is 100 %.
Your quick response is much appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Ravichandra.

I doubt this error has to do anything with Max Worker Thread option. The error Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State: 27 means SQL Server could not determine the initial database for that login.
Also check which process is making the CPU spike.
