Author  Topic  EEALL Starting Member 1 Post Posted - 2011-11-30 : 16:48:56 I notice that I see hostnames in my SQL activity monitor for machines that I disconnected from the network. How long does the SQL server keep a session ID open after inactivity? In addition, why would I see other SQL servers in the activity monitor when I haven't logged into those other servers? Sorry if this seems obvious or I missed a previous thread that answered this question, but I didn't see anything similar when I searched the forum.
