Find out, who accesses which Database-Table when

  • Hallo everybody,

    I have several huge, large, grown databases, I need to know, if they and all of their tables are still in use.

    Can anybody recommend me a tool to find out for databases and tables inside: Who accesses it when (e.g. User, IP, ...)

    I need to analyse for a clean up, what is in use, but the last run could be - worst case - nearly one year ago, because there might be jobs running only once per year.

    Thank you véry much in advance

    Regards

    Christian

  • SQL doesn't keep that kind of historical data. To find that out (especially the who accesses it), you'll need to run traces for long periods of time.
