sys.dm_cdc_log_scan_sessions (Transact-SQL)
Returns one row for each log scan session in the current database. The last row returned represents the current session. You can use this view to return status information about the current log scan session, or aggregated information about all sessions since the instance of SQL Server was last started.

Ending LSN for the session. NULL = session is active. When session_id = 0, the ending LSN for the last session. |
||||||||||||||||||
tran_count |
bigint |
Number of change data capture transactions processed. This counter is populated in phase 2. When session_id = 0, the number of processed transactions in all sessions. |
||||||||||||||||||
last_commit_lsn |
nvarchar(23) |
LSN of the last commit log record processed. When session_id = 0, the last commit log record LSN for any session. |
||||||||||||||||||
last_commit_time |
datetime |
Time the last commit log record was processed. When session_id = 0, the time the last commit log record for any session. |
||||||||||||||||||
log_record_count |
bigint |
Number of log records scanned. When session_id = 0, number of records scanned for all sessions. |
||||||||||||||||||
schema_change_count |
int |
Number of data definition language (DDL) operations detected. This counter is populated in phase 6. When session_id = 0, the number of DDL operations processed in all sessions. |
||||||||||||||||||
command_count |
bigint |
Number of commands processed. When session_id = 0, the number of commands processed in all sessions. |
||||||||||||||||||
first_begin_cdc_lsn |
nvarchar(23) |
First LSN that contained change data capture transactions. When session_id = 0, the first LSN that contained change data capture transactions. |
||||||||||||||||||
last_commit_cdc_lsn |
nvarchar(23) |
LSN of the last commit log record that contained change data capture transactions. When session_id = 0, the last commit log record LSN for any session that contained change data capture transactions |
||||||||||||||||||
last_commit_cdc_time |
datetime |
Time the last commit log record was processed that contained change data capture transactions. When session_id = 0, the time the last commit log record for any session that contained change data capture transactions. |
||||||||||||||||||
latency |
int |
The difference, in seconds, between end_time and last_commit_cdc_time in the session. This counter is populated at the end of phase 7. When session_id = 0, the last nonzero latency value recorded by a session. |
||||||||||||||||||
empty_scan_count |
int |
Number of consecutive sessions that contained no change data capture transactions. |
||||||||||||||||||
failed_sessions_count |
int |
Number of sessions that failed. |
