Capability For Limiting # Of Package Instances?
Oct 5, 2007
1) How can I keep my package from running more thatn 1 instance at a time?
I tried changing "MAXCONCURRENT" to "1" in my DTEXEC command in batch file, however, this doesn't limit the # of instances. (If I run the batch file twice, one after the next, I get 2 instances running simultaneously).
2) What "executable files" is this definition referring to?
MAXCONCURRENT is defined as:
"Specifies the number of executable files that the package can run concurrently. The value specified must be either a non-negative integer, or -1. A value of -1 means that SSIS will allow a maximum number of concurrently running executables that is equal to the total number of processors on the computer executing the package, plus two."
Thx,
Mojo

SQL Server 2000 SP4. I built a large DTS package that grabs a numberof tables from an Oracle DB, does some scrubbing and date verificationand loads to a SQL Server DB. Most of the tables are full refresh anda few are incremental.Main DW: DwSQLStaging Area: DwLoadAreaSQLThe DW is about 60 Gigs. The Staging Area is about 80 Gigs. This isall good.However, the log file for the staging area is 50 Gigs and I'm tryingto find ways to not require such a large log file. I tried adding afew "BACKUP LOG DwLoadAreaSQL WITH TRUNCATE_ONLY" statements in theDTS package but figured out that because it's 1 DTS package it's all 1transaction. I've thought about breaking it up into multiple DTSpackages and truncating the log between running them but was hoping toavoid this. To be clear, I know how to shrink DB's and LogFiles...that's not the issue.Any Ideas? Thanks.

Hi
Can I limit an SSIS package that should run only for specific time, if it exceeds then should stop.
Ex. mySSIS.dtsx should run only 5 min, if exceeds 5 min it should stop running and exit.
Thanks,
Madhu

In my application code I am trying to invoke multiple threads in which each thread is loading an instance of the same SSIS package and would initialize the package variables with different values and execute the different instances in parallel. In each thread - after the package execution has completed successfully - I read that instance's SSIS package variables to get result information from that Instance run.
When I load the same package in different thread using LoadFromSqlServer() method
- does the code create multiple instances of the SSIS package and load the distinct instances in each of the thread
- Will the Package Execution ID be different for the different instances?
- Are the package level variables instance safe?

Hi,
Can we execute multiple instances of the same SSIS package simultaneously??
If yes, how?
If no, what is the work-around to simulate such a functionality?
Thanks in advance.

I have a package on the default instance which runs and completes successfully. When that package is moved to the same SQL server, but a different instance, running under the same service account, it fails. The error is below with some specific stuff removed:
Delete Data from Level 1:Error: Executing the query "-- Variable to capture FileID's
DECLARE @DeleteFil..." failed with the following error: "The DELETE permission was denied on the object '[name removed]', database '[]', schema '[]'.". Possible failure reasons:
Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
This makes me think that the package under the non-default instance ends up running under a different security context.

Hello, I am trying to achieve a query results with not much luck. I am struggling the query design of how to construct to get the right results.
My table has the following data
RoomID Subject StartDate Duration(min) EndDate
201 test 28/09/2007 07:00:00 180 28/09/2007 10:00:00
202 test 28/09/2007 09:00:00 240 28/09/2007 13:00:00
The best way to describe is a scheduling system with the StartDate, Duration, EndDate.
I am trying to query for datetime periods which are allocated, eg the table records show from 7am - 10am and 9am - 1pm are allocated.
When I query on StartDate >= 28/09/2007 07:00:00 AND EndDate <= 28/09/2007 13:00:00, record 201 & 202 shows which is correct because they are within query parameters and are allocated.
When I query on StartDate >= 28/09/2007 07:30:00 AND EndDate <= 28/09/2007 13:00:00, record 202 only shows which is correct because record 201 StartDate is before 07:00:00.
But my problem is I require record 201 to show because the time period between 07:00:00 and 09:00:00 is allocated and the query parameter is 07:30:00 which is still between 07:00:00 and 09:00:00.
I have researched where on similar situations, the use of duration is used, but I am unsure on its application to achieve results.
I have also read of other situations where a lookup table should be used, but again I cannot get my head around the application of a lookup table to query the resuults.
Does anyone have any theories, design thoughts or real work solutions they can help me with.
Thanks

Has anyone heard as to whether Microsoft plans on updating the charting engine for Reporting Services? Right now I find the charting capability rather limited and would like to see richer charting capability. Is this a case where it is better to not wait for this feature as it will be way off into the future before this happens, or better charting features just are not in the scope of Microsoft's plans for Reporting Services. If either case is true then the best solution would be to purchase the full capabilities of Dundas Chart for Reporting Services.

We are thinking of deploying MSDE for a modest traffic Intranet. According to this http://www.microsoft.com/sql/msde/howtobuy/msdeuse.asp 25 concurrent users should be fine.
What exception would we get if the MSDE was not handling the traffic?
What would be the best way to track/log how close we are getting to the 25 user max.

I am looking for a solution to allow users to generate data by selecting tables-->columns-->where clauses on the fly.
I am thinking to maintain relationships, joins, etc., in some configuration tables. Based on the fields selected by the user, I can get these conditions and generate a query, execute and export to excel. Any ideas what is the good way of storing relationships, etc. in configuration table?
Also suggest if there is any good excel add-in to do adhoc reporting. Point me if there is any other ways of doing.
If I have to do it from scratch, i probably use VB.NET.
Any ideas, information is appreciated. thanks

I had a server with SQL Server 7.0
I installed a named instance of SQL Server 2000 and then i passed all my DB
of the 7.0 instance to the 2000 instance.
Then i removed the 7.0 instance, that was the default instance.
So at the moment there is only the 2000 version, but it isn't the default
instance
Can the 2000 instance become the default instance? (So that clients can
connect to it simply through computer name, and not creating an alias)
thanks

I'm trying to decide whether MS SQL will allow me to accomplish the following objectives at no cost, or whether I'd eventually have to pay for an MS SQL upgrade to accompish my objectives.
I have big, unrealistic dreams. I want to create a humorous newsblog into which I would post more than a dozen times a day. Most of the posts would have large photographs. Presumably, I'd archive the posts by subject and ranking and 'most viewed," etc., using a database.
1) Will the space limitations of the MS SQL Express edition be an issue after a while?
2) Could I hire a web developer to help me from a remote location, once the website is large enough to warrant expansion? Or does the MS SQL Express edition allow only one user? I read something I didn't understand about CPU restrictions.
3) I'm confused because web hosts advertise the availability of MS SQL databases on their server...so does that mean I wouldn't have to buy an upgrade if it became neccessary? (I know, I'm shockingly uneducated.)
4) I'm going to buy Office 2007. Is it important to purchase a package that includes Microsoft Access, given my goals?
5) Any other thoughts in plain english on how the MS SQL express edition imposes limitations....basically, I don't understand how MS SQL Express might limit me down the road if the site were actually a success. What would have to happen before I would be forced to spend a lot of money on an upgrade later?
I'm almost completely new to computing. I've read a bunch of criticisms of MS SQL Express on internet forums that I didn't understand, but that really made me worried about my decision to go with Microsoft Products and Asp.net web hosts. (I understand some people have an irrational dislike of Microsoft, but there was A LOT of bashing.)

Hi,
please do help. Have been wrestling with this for about 3 hours and read a buncha forums + searched the tutorial lists.. AARRGH!
Anyhow,
I have to paginate a datalist (and I really can't use a datagrid because of the layout, blame the bluddy graphic designer)
I want to return the top 8 rows, the next 8 top rows and so on.
This is the sql string I have:
'retrieve pagination in order to construct the rest of the sql string
Dim startrec As Integer
If pageno = 1 Then
startrec = 0
Else
startrec = (pageno - 1) * pagesize
End If
' this builds the sql string, getting ONLY the records we need for this. Page size is a constant expressed on the base page
' startrec is the record where I want to start in the db.
strsql = "select top " & pagesize & " * " & strsqlbasic & " and itemID>" & startrec & " order by itemnotes1 asc"
noresults.text = strsql & " <br> " & searchwhat & searchfor
strsqlbasic is constructed elsewhere and is just the 'from X where y = var
Of course, this returns all records where the value of itemID is greater than the value of startrec. How would I change this so it returns the next 4 rows starting from the row number given by the value of startrec?
thanks for any help.

I'm trying to write a query where if the value of one of the paramters is equal to "-1" it will not include one of the search criteria. For example I have a param called "Gender". 0 = Male and 1 = Female. If the value of the "Gender" param is "-1" I'd like it to find either Males or Females.
Code (please not this doesn't compile):
SELECT
[UserID],[Gender]
FROM
[table_user]
WHERE
Country = @Country
AND IsOnline = @IsOnline
IF (@Gender != -1)
AND Gender = @Gender
Obviously this doesn't work, but I think it conveys the gist of what I'm trying to do. Does the secret lie in default parameters? Or is my IF syntax just flat out wrong?
Thanks!

I am trying to convert some mySql code to sqlserver and was amazed to see that sqlserver has no functionality to specify the rows of a select statement. In mySql its e.g. "SELECT * FROM table LIMIT 20, 10" this returns ten rows starting from row 21. Using TOP in sqlserver only returns the top n rows but what if I want row 20 to 30? Is there an easy way that I have just missed or does one realy have to do something like "SELECT TOP 60 * FROM myTable WHERE id NOT IN (SELECT TOP 40 id FROM myTable);"?
Hope you can reply with good news...

Hello everyone.. I'm working here on a little problem which's driving me nuts : I have two tables :EQUIPMENT :
-EQID
-EQName
-EQblabla QUALITYCHECK :
-QCID
-EQID <---- Is connected with EQUIPMENT
-QCDATE
-QCACTION
-QCnextdate They're needed to manage Qualityactions on some machines we own. Every year, we do quality actions on every machine, after then, we Inserta new QUALITYCHECK-entry into our database and automatically theQCnextdate is generated with QCdate+365days. So far, so easy. So now, how will i do a query against the DB with the NEWEST QUALITYCHECK-entrys for every machine ? The result has to besmth. like that : EQID | EQName | QCDATE | QCNextdate
1 | machine 1 | 21.12.2006 | 21.12.2007
2 | machine 2 | 21.06.2006 | 21.06.2007
3 | machine 3 | 21.11.2006 | 21.11.2007
4 | machine 4 | 21.12.2005 | 21.12.2006
5 | machine 5 | 23.10.2006 | 23.10.2007
AND NOT
EQID | EQName | QCDATE | QCNextdate
1 | machine 1 | 21.12.2006 | 21.12.2007
1 | machine 1 | 21.12.2005 | 21.12.2006
1 | machine 1 | 21.12.2004 | 21.12.2005
1 | machine 1 | 21.12.2003 | 21.12.2004
2 | machine 2 | 21.06.2006 | 21.06.2007
2 | machine 2 | 21.06.2005 | 21.06.2006
2 | machine 2 | 21.06.2004 | 21.06.2005
2 | machine 2 | 21.06.2003 | 21.06.2004etc..
I tried several things with top 1, subquerys, distinct etc..But unfortunatly it seems that im not capable to solve the problem..I would be thankful for any suggestions !

Hello,
We are migrating from VB6/MySQL to VB6/MS SQL.
The application retrieves limited records for paginated results.
This way we can access large databases, but only return rows for one screen.
For example:
Select row 1 - 10, then 11 - 20 then 21 to 30 etc.
With MySQL we can use LIMIT and OFFSET and it works great.
MySQL
SELECT <columns> FROM <tables> [WHERE <condition>] [ORDER BY <columns>]
[LIMIT [offset,]howmany>]
Does anybody know how we can do something similar with MS SQL?
Any feedback is appreciated!
Thank you,
Edi

I know how to do this in MySQL; but I was hoping there was a way to do it in MS SQL.
I want to be able to limit the number of rows an UPDATE or DELETE will effect regardless of the WHERE clause. I want to do this as a stop gap in the event that there is a logical error in the WHERE clause that would make it effect more rows than is humanly intended.
If I write a complex query that I know should drill down to only affecting one row, I just want to lock it in before I run it on database and take the risk of damaging some data.
In MySQL you would just do something like this:
Code:
DELETE FROM table_name WHERE ... LIMIT 1;
The only thing close to LIMIT I could come up with for MS SQL was TOP but it seems to only work for SELECT.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
I ask this because if you screw up; manually saving 1, 2 or even 5 rows is a lot easier than having to rescue a whole table of data (even if it on a development server).

I have a table that looks like
CP | P | ST | Date
where each letter represents a column. I need a SELECT statement that results one row if there is an entry with a date within the last 6 mo for each CP,P,ST combination.
example:
cp1, p1, st1, 1/1/6
cp1, p1, st1, 4/1/6
cp1, p2, st1, 3/1/6
would return just the first and third row...
thanks.

Let me start off with my table layouts.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Competition] (
[Id] INT IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL,
[Name] NVARCHAR (150) NOT NULL,
[Remarks] NVARCHAR (350) NULL,
[Start] DATETIME NOT NULL,
[IsActive] BIT NULL,
[End] DATETIME NOT NULL,
[Code] ....
Then here is my query with the problem below. The problem is that multiple EntryImages can relate to a single Entry. My goal is to only select one Row for each Entry (using @EntrySelection) but when I join to EntryImages I always get back multiple rows when an Entry has multiple EntryImages.
Declare@EntrySelection int= 10
select top (@EntrySelection)
[dbo].Entries.Id,
[dbo].Entries.CatchDate,
[dbo].Entries.CompetitionId,
[dbo].Competition.Name,
[Code] ....

We currently have a routine that "forks" out (to use the unix term)TSQLcommands to run asynchronously via SQL Agent jobs. Each TSQL commandgets its own Job, and the job starts immediately after creation.Sometimes we can have too many of these jobs running at the same, andthe box crawls to a slow speed until the jobs finish up.Is there a way we can limit the number of active jobs running under theSQL Agent at one time? Or is there away to limit the number of active(runnable) processes on SQL Server, in general?
