All,

today we had an issue with the user-id SA as it was blocking all the other users in the DB, then it came to my mind that SA is always logged in to SQL server but it is not clear to me the reason for those session opened to the master DB.

Could anyway through some light over topic?

Thanks,
Ch.

    These are core SQL Server processes that are running in the background.
    There are no bugs - only undocumented features.

    The sa account should only be used by the system admin (hey what a coincidence!! System Admin, initials SA :)). It looks like you have the sa account set up for some services.

    These processes are part of SQL's internal operations. The user has no control over the login account used by these processes.

    Hint: If the session ID is < 50, it is internal process (for example process doing checkpoint, rollback etc...)
