Any Idea To Implement SCD Without SCD Component Of The SSIS
Dec 21, 2007
Hi All,
I would like to say thank you in advance for all your ideas. Here is my case i want to implement slowly changing dimension, i know that i can use SCD component of the SSIS, but because of performance issue i am thinking to use something else that can subtitute the SCD component, i want some idea from you guys if anyone has implemented before without Slowly Changing Dimension component.
If not, do you have any comment/suggestion to use the SCD component i mean if the worest comes and i use it, what draw backs does it has, for example interms of data size, performance. Note that i use Dedicated Server for the ETL in Production.
In a Data Flow, I have the necessity to use a SSIS variable of type €œObject€? inside Script Component and assign to it the content of 'n' variables of string type. On exiting from the script the variable of type object should contain something like in the following lines: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD €¦€¦€¦€¦€¦€¦€¦. €¦€¦€¦€¦€¦€¦€¦. On exiting from the data flow I will use the variable of type Object in a Script Task, by reading each element in a cyclic fashion. Is there anyone who have experienced something like this? Could anyone provide any example of that? Thanks in advance!
Hi all I'm into a project which uses a lot of views for joining 2 or more tables. Using the MERGE component in SSIS will be a huge effort coz it only has 2 inputs and I gotta SORT the input too. Isnt it possible to have a VIEW like component that joins more than 2 tables and DOESNT need sorting?? (I've thought about creating views in database engine but it breaks my data floe in SSIS and is'nt a practical solution)
I have the following transact SQL code which I want to change to a set of SSIS components.
SELECT blah, blah
FROM PSTAGE..[stage_OFFER_PRICE_DIVIDEND] AS SOPD LEFT OUTER JOIN PSTAGE..[stage_PRICE_GRP] AS SPG ON SOPD.PRICE_GRP_ID = SPG.PRICE_GRP_ID LEFT OUTER JOIN PSTAGE..[stage_type] AS TYP ON TYP.TYPE_CD=SPG.PRICE_TYPE_TYPE4_CD and TYP.TYPE_CL_CD = '0017'
I know I can join two data sets using a merge join (left join) but how do I combine a third merge join? Should I be doing this or should I just stick my code in a SQL Task instead?
We are planning for a DW solution based upon SQL Server 2005 EE. We will use a 64 bit machine for the Database engine and Analysis Services. Should we have seperate server for SSIS or should we use the same 64 bit box? If we go for a sepaerate server for SSIS should we use 32 bit or 64 bit ?
The primary datasources will be a new developed .NET application and a financial system based upon SQL Server 2000.
Every good advice/experiance is greatly appriciated!
I have a table containing a list of source table names to be transferred to destination.I need to pass each and every table name as a variable and based on the name of the variable I need to select data from source and insert into destination.The source and destinations are on 2 different servers.The source tables have different metadata (different column names and data types).Any help how to implement this would be greatly appreciated.
To be more clear I have List table which has below format
TABLE NAME CUSTOMER PRODUCT INVENTORY
Customer , product, inventory are tables names. So my package should first go and collect the table name from LIST table and then transfer the Customer table data from Server A to Server B. This should be repeat untill all the tables listed in LIST table are transferred.
it is taken from SQL2K5 SP2 readme.txt. Anyone have idea what to do to implement this ? Our sp2 is failing. we suspect the above problem and researching it.we are running on default instance of SQL2K5 on win2003 ent sp2
"When you apply SP2, Setup upgrades system databases. If you have implemented restrictions on the ALTER DATABASE syntax, this upgrade may fail. Restrictions to ALTER DATABASE may include the following:
Explicitly denying the ALTER DATABASE statement.
A data definition language (DDL) trigger on ALTER DATABASE that rolls back the transaction containing the ALTER DATABASE statement.
If you have restrictions on ALTER DATABASE, and Setup fails to upgrade system databases to SP2, you must disable these restrictions and then re-run Setup."
Hi All, I am now working on the design phase of my project, we are looking to implement Change Data Capture (CDC) but i need some help if you guys has implemented before using the SSIS 2005 componets. I am trying to use the Following:
Source---------Derived Column---------Lookup---------------Conditional Split (to split New records and Updated Records)-----------Destination. Respectively. Lets make it clear, my source holds (Old records and newly added or Updated records), the Derived Column is to Derive new columns called Insert_Date and Update_Date. The Lookup i am Using is to look the Fact_Table(the Old Records) as Reference, and then based on this lookup i will split the records on timely based using the Conditional Split. My question is 1. Am i using the right components? 2. what consideration should i have to see to make it true (some Logics on the conditional split)? 3. Any script which helps in this strategy? 4. If you have a better idea please try to help me, i need you help badly.
I have a requirement of migrating DTS package which is done in Sql Server 2000 to SSIS 2012.
I started with one package having data driven query task and done with source for which i chose OLE DB Source and given the required select query in ssis 2012
I'm stuck now and i'm unable to choose the relevant tools in ssis 2012 for binding, transformation,queries and lookup tabs used in dts 2000 for this DDQT.
I have a package that has a data lfow task. this task imports data from a db2 database (using the IBM Ole DB provider fro db2) and adds it to sql server database table. This package was created on the server. then though version control (using TFS source control) I check out the package on my local machine. and when I open the package I get the foll 3 errors.
Error 1 Validation error. Import Account Num from BMGP_BDR: DTS.Pipeline: The component metadata for "component "DataReader Source" (1113)" could not be upgraded to the newer version of the component. The PerformUpgrade method failed.

I have a package which reads an Access file from a folder. My connection manager to this file is .NET providers for OledbMicrosoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB Provider.
Package works from my computer. But when I execute it on the server as a SQL Agent job, I get
The component metadata for "component "DataReader Source" (1) could not be upgraded to the newer version of the component. The PerformUpgrade method failed.
I copied the mdb file to a folder on the server which my packages have no problem reading data from.
My packages run under the same domain account as defined in proxies.
i am not very experienced with the SSIS. I am just wondering if there is something like a "if-then-else"-componente like the foreach-component in SSIS.
I want to delete the values of all tables in one database. So I took a foreach-component and selected the smo-enumeration with all tables. I store the tablename in a variable and execute a sql-task with "delete table.." with the variable tablename as parameter. Now I want to delete all except one certain table. I would like to add a selection where the variable tablename is checked. If the tablename is this certain table, I don't want to execute the sql-command, else I want to excecute the delete-command.
I have just migrated a DTS 2000 package as an SSIS package. one of the features that failed to migrate, was a transformation that , selected 2 colums of data with a stored procedure, file name, and full path of filename, Then the file name only was written to a txt file, Then there was an ActiveX transformation task that used the other column (full file path) to copy said file to another location (specified as a global str variable eg \127.0.0.1directory..etc)
Now my question is this, with SSIS script task can i save the path name (2nd column) to a variable and then using this variable copy the file to another location (global str variable) ? Is there a CopyFile function like there is in ActiveX ?
And can i add this script task along with the DATA FLOW ? because if i add it outside the DF , it will only (im assuming) copy the last line (path) into the variable...
Such a pain, I know. Yesterday I did a couple of questions regarding transformation rows and very kindly I obtained answer (Thanks Jamie and Michael) But now I face another stupid issue and is how to map source with destination columns inside Script Component Task. On my Flat File Source I€™ve got defined thirteen columms (from Column0 till Column13); that€™s fine. And then, I€™ve got a sql table as destination with another names, of course€¦
Inputs and Outputs option from Script Component Editor leaf has been commited both (Input 0 and Output 0) but I wonder how the hell I€™m refer to them here:
Public Overrides Sub Input0_ProcessInputRow(ByVal Row As Input0Buffer)
** snippet of old code sql2 to migrate€¦
'If DTSSource("Col010") = "N" Then ' DTSDestination("ImpBase") = -1 * CDbl(DTSSource("Col011") / 100) 'Else ' DTSDestination("ImpBase") = CDbl(DTSSource("Col011") / 100) 'End I
.Net Script
If Row.Column10 = "N" Then ¿?????????????? End If
End Sub
Thanks a lot for your comments and thoughts, Enric

Informatica has an XML parser component that allows me to read an xml file from a data source (Oracle Clob attribute in table in this case), parse it out in our mapping, and then transform the parsed date.
Does anyone know if SSIS has similar functionality?
Flow:
DataSource --> XML Parser --> Expression Component (Transform) --> DataTarget
My SSIS design: Source OLE DB -> Script Component -> Destination OLE DB
I have a script component that reads and proceeds each row in input. But I have no rows in output. How can you explain that ? with the viewer, I see the rows in input but in output, I have nothing after the script. The script function: read the value of the ROW.column and flag like this : ROW.columnout = TRUE (columnout is added in output columns)
What should I define at the component to retrieve the rows after the script component ?
I am creating an SSIS Package where I need to get the errorcolumn name in a script component to be inserted into a database table. Even when I loop through ColumnNames in ComponentMetaData.InputCollection(0).InputColumnCollection and match their lineageId with the errorcolumn, I dont get a match. Can anybody please help me in this.
When there is an error in one of the rows a script component (in a child package) is processing I want to fail the child package and the parent package and not continue processing any rows.
How do I do this?
I have every thing in the script component in a try catch statment. This is the catch block
Hi guys, I got these errors when writing a scripting component. Anyone encounteer these errors before?
Warning 1 The dependency 'EnvDTE' could not be found. Warning 2 The dependency 'Microsoft.SqlServer.VSAHosting' could not be found. Warning 3 The dependency 'Microsoft.SqlServer.DtsMsg' could not be found. Warning 4 The dependency 'Microsoft.SqlServer.VSAHostingDT' could not be found.
There is a table with a column that contains Xml documents. For each record from my Data Flow Source, I want to pass in the Xml document and the node to interrogate, and return the value contained in the node. Like the Crm component, this is probably one I will have to write from scratch in C#, but I would like to avoid having to create the custom component if it already exists in the public arena.
Does anyone know of any Xml Ssis Data Flow Components that are downloadable for free?
I cannot open my script component in my SSIS package. Not sure if this is the cause, but I originally designed the package in BIDS and now have loaded Visual Studio 2005. Here are all the error messages:

I have managed to programmatically create data flows and components in an SSIS (2005) project (*.dtsx) by using VS2005 VB.NET but I have hit a road block in terms of progarmmatically inserting pre-tested VB.NET code into a newly created Data Flow - Script Component source code block
Can someone give me a little bit of direction on this? Is it possible? Direction to some example code would be great!
I have a flat file that contains detail in each record as indicated below:
HEADER_ID, ATTRIB_A(1..10), ATTRIB_B(1..10), ATTRIB_C(1..10), etc.
The index of the attribute relates it to other attributes with the same index. It needs to look like this in the detail table:
HEADER_ID, ATTRIB_A1, ATTRIB_B1, ATTRIB_C1
HEADER_ID, ATTRIB_A2, ATTRIB_B2, ATTRIB_C2
I need to pivot these attributes into a detail table that relates back to the header information. Because of the number of these, I don't want to use the UNPIVOT Task because there are so many. I was hoping to move the complexity to a Script Component where I could read one line and transform it to a normalized state.
I need to create an ODBC source script component that outputs into SQL Server. When I debug I get the following error message:

I had a DTS package on sql2000 which i migrated succesfully to Sql2005 and im able to open the package and execute the package.Now i want to add a new database mail component on this package to send emails to recepients.In short i dont want to use SQL Mail component of Sql2000 which required outlook components,instead i want to use the new features of SSIS to my package which was designed on sql2000. Is it possible to use the SSIS new features to be incorporated on my old DTS package?
Is there a way of disabling a custom property in a component so that during design-time the property is grayed out? I looked around the properties of IDTSCustomProperty90 and nothing sticks out.
I am facing a problem with Lookup component in SSIS. I need to lookup from a transaction table for getting some info, But when im trying to implement the same, the Pre-Execute step itself got failed saying like, €œ[DTS.Pipeline] Information: The buffer manager failed a memory allocation call for 524264 bytes, but was unable to swap out any buffers to relieve memory pressure. 9467 buffers were considered and 5956 were locked. Either not enough memory is available to the pipeline because not enough are installed, other processes were using it, or too many buffers are locked. [Tracer [19717]] Error: A buffer could not be locked. The system is out of memory or the buffer manager has reached its quota. [DTS.Pipeline] Error: component "Tracer" (19717) failed the pre-execute phase and returned error code 0xC020204B.€? Component Tracer is the Look up. Tracer is having around 6.5 mil records. Is there any way to allocate more buffers thru buffer manager? Or is there any alternative to solve this problem? FYI, the hard disk free space is more than 250 GB. Thanks in advance.
I'm trying to determine proper end date for measuring the effectiveness of my client's email campaigns. For each email address that received the campaign, I would like to determine a measurement end date. This date should be the lesser of 7 days from the Sent date or the date of the last email offer. This way, I prevent double-counting the revenue associated with each email campaign. Here's an example of what I'd like to see for each unique Sent Date and Email Address:
Sent Date Email Address Measurement End Date <<<< This is what I'm trying to derive with a script
2/22/2007 test@test.com 2/29/2007 <<<< 7 days from Sent Date
2/18/2007 test@test.com 2/22/2007 <<<< 4 days from Sent date due to the 2/22/2007 email
1/20/2007 test@test.com 1/27/2007 <<<< 7 days from Sent Date
etc.
If the input data stream is sorted by Email Address and descending Sent Date, then I need to be able to compare the Sent Date on the current record to the Sent Date on the next record (until the Email Address changes and then the process starts over).
I'm open to any solutions as this has really stumped me for awhile.
