The quickest way to see what a SQL instance is doing is to fire up SQL Server Profiler – that will show you all of the client connections, where they’re coming from, what user accounts they’re using, and what queries they’re running in what databases. While this isn’t a complete picture of what a SQL server is doing, it’s a good, quick overview of the traffic it’s handling.
