Scheduled scan issue with SQL 2008R2

We are see interuptions with our web applications due to a Sophos scheduled scan on a SQL 2008R2 server. Here is one of the many errors of the same that is in the event log and SQL error log when the scheduled scan begins. On access does not appear to be an issue.

"The client was unable to reuse a session with SPID 337, which had been reset for connection pooling. The failure ID is 29. This error may have been caused by an earlier operation failing. Check the error logs for failed operations immediately before this error message."

I have moved the scheduled time and the problem moves with the scheduled scan time. I have disabled the schduled scan and have no issues. I have about 8 SQL clusters with this being the only one exhibiting this behaviour. I have setup the best practice for exclustions for SQL servers for the policy. Reinstall didn't help.

Any ideas or suggestions welcomed.

  • Hello RonMexico,

    the first 2-5 mins

    it starts with a memory scan (note that you can't turn this off, just the system, i.e. OS, memory scan) and depending on RAM this should complete within this time (I've run it on a 4GB W2k8R2 and it takes just about 30 seconds), after that the rootkit scan commences.  

    Running a local scan will likely not give more insight. You could try to uncheck the rootkit and/or system memory scan to see if it makes any difference. Anyway I suggest you contact Support - there seems to be some adverse effect caused by the early stages of a scan but I can't say where to look.
