| Hi allI have a stored proc that runs every 2 hours - as a job. The stored proc takes about 3-5 minutes to complete, depending on number of records. What I want to know is, Is there a way to check if that stored procedure is currently running. If so it wont run second time concurrently. |

| you can run sp_who2 'active' to see all the active sessions and details. |

| Amend the core SP so that records it's own start/end times. then query this log. |

| You coudl also use SQL agent, it shows last run time, next runtime and status. that does require you to you EM, which doesnt seem that popular :) |

msdb.dbo.sp_help_job will tell you the current run status of all jobs.
