I need a way to determine if a query is still running on the database server. Is there a way to do this?
If the query is still running after 2 hours I need to send a message. How can I query the database for the status of a query?
Is it possible to create an SSIS package that checks for a running Query on my SQL db?
I need to some how check my SQL server and see if there is a query running, if its running I need to set an indicator in my table for my app. This job needs to be scheduled and run nightly (which I can do). But how can I query SQL and see if the query is still running?
I am a Junior DBA and i have to checks the various jobs on different servers.Please help me with a T-SQL way by which i can check the Job status through a Query.
Thanks in Advance

View 6 Replies View RelatedHi,
we have a reporting database that needs to be refreshed every week. I normally get a big backup file (50GB) from our business partner very Sunday morning; I have setup a job to restore the database once I got the backup file. The restore job normally will take about 4 or 5 hours to finish, but sometime it may take much longer (more than 10 hours). We knew there is some kind of disk storage contention going on the SAN. When this problem happens the system guy always try to pick my db restore process to be the victim. I hate to kill a job when it has 90% done, but I have no way to tell the restore progress status. Does someone know if I can query database restore progress information from any DMVs?
Thank you for your help in advance.

I'm getting this error in a simple DTS package.
No query specification returned by transform status.
Any ideas what's causing this ?
DTS is simply running a query (which returns data via preview)
and insert results into a table.
Thanks

I'm running the following SQL query from LabVIEW, a graphical programming language, using the built in capabilities it has for database connectivity:
   DECLARE @currentID int
   SET @currentID = (SELECT MIN(ExperimentID) FROM Jobs_t WHERE JobStatus = 'ToRun');
   UPDATE [dbo].[Jobs_t]
   SET [JobStatus] = 'Pending'
   WHERE ExperimentID = @currentID;
   SELECT @currentID AS result
<main.img>
This is the analogous code to main() is a C-like language. The first block, which has the "Connection Information" wire going into it, opens a .udl file and creates an ADO.NET _Connection reference, which is later used to invoke methods for the query.
<execute query.img>
This is the inside of the second block, the one with "EXE" and the pink wire going into it. The boxes with the gray border operate much like "switch" statements. The wire going into the "?" terminal on these boxes determines which case gets executed. The yellow boxes with white rectangels dropping down are invoke nodes and property nodes; they accept a reference to an object and allow you to invoke methods and read/write properties of that object. You can see the _Recordset object here as well. <fetch recordset.img>
Here's the next block to be executed, the one whose icon reads "FETCH ALL". We see that the first thing to execute on the far left grabs some properties of the recordset, and returns them in a "struct" (the pink wire that goes into the box that reads "state"). This is where the code fails. The recordset opened in the previous VI (virtual instrument) has a status of "closed", and the purple variant (seen under "Read all the data available") comes back empty.
The rest of the code is fairly irrelevant, as it's just converting the received variant into usable data, and freeing the recordset reference opened previously. My question is, why would the status from the query of the recordset be "closed"? I realize that recordsets are "closed" when the query returns no rows, but executing that query in SSMS returns good data. Also, executing the LabVIEW code does the UPDATE in the query, so I know that's not broken either.
Hi,
SQL Server 2005 SP1. (+ 5 minutes fix installed).
Query notification subscription cretaed (sys.dm_qn_subscriptions).
Subscription does not fire in response to event.
sys.transmission_queue is empty.
profiler does not show errors.
sys.conversation_endpoints shows one endpoint in status SO. (along with a lot of left over garbage - about 300K records - but this should not be a problem other than storage).
I know SP2 is suppose to solve the garbage records problem but this is not our problem. This setup was working and then just stoped.
any ideas ?

Hi Experts,
I am extracting data from SQL Server 2005 to flat file destination. I am using SQL Command to specify the data selection query. One of my query uses Replicate function to derive a column value. When I execute this package it fails with the error "Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "value" returned status value 4 and status text "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page".
The reason for the problem is that, it is taking the InputColumnWidth of the flat file destination as 8000 and I specified the OutputColumnWidth as 4.
If I change the OutputColumnWidth to 8000, it is working without any error but resulting in the column width of 8000.
I tried using DerivedColumn Transformation's Type cast and DataConversion Transformation but still I am getting the same error in the respective Transformation components.
Can anyone suggest how to solve this issue.
Returning "completed" when status = 1 and "not completed when status = 0

Unless I grant a developer "system admin" role, they are unable to see whether or not any job *not* owned by themselves is running?
EX: Developer A can't see whether Developer B's job is executing? Why? I've granted them both db_owner in msdb, and all permissions possible in msdb. Is there an extended sp I can look for?
Thanks,

View 1 Replies View RelatedIn SQL 2000, go to Management, than Jobs, you will see a list of all jobs and their running status. I would like to programmatically display the same on my web page. I can call sysjobs table to get the jobs and use sysjobschedules to determine whether it's been scheduled or not. Then use sysjobhistory to obtain their running history. But how and where do I get the Next Run Date information? Is this calculated or stored somewhere?Can anyone give me some help on how to work with sysjobs, sysjobschedules, and sysjobhistory tables? All I am trying to do is to build a web-based app that does the same thing as the Enterprise Manager is doing - create and schedule a job, and monitor the job status.Thanks a lot!Penn
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi all - am having trouble working out what would be the best way to do this (most efficient)I have written an order, despatch and accounts system. To get a list of orders ready for despatch, I have written a query which calculates the amount of items ordered against the amount of items despatched from that order. If there are any outstanding items, then this order is in the list of orders which are outstanding for despatch.
I am having trouble working out how to go about creating a list of orders ready do be invoiced... Orders that are ready to be invoiced can be completely despatched orders or part despatched orders. That is to say that if an order is only half despatched, my client still wants to be able to raise an invoice against that part of the order. I envisage creating a query which checks my orderline table to see if the item has been invoiced and creating the list from there. But as the application is used more and more, this query will take longer to run? ANy ideas?
Thanks.

is there any way to make the status of a package execution to be success without caring about failure of certain steps in the package?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI need to know the meaning of the status bit in sysdatabases because BOL only reports some of them.
For SQL 7.0 SP1 I have some database with a status bit equal to 0 (zero) and equal to 12.
For SQL 2000 SP2 I have some database with a status bit equal to 0 (zero),24,20 and 1073741840.
So I would really appreciate if someone can explain the meaning of these status bits.
Thank you very much.

Hi,
Is there any way to update the status bar in Query Analyzer.
Suppose I am running a script which updates data to a file. I want to know the status showing the percentage it completed.
Thanks
:confused:
I just started working with MS SQL. I'm attempting to find the equivalent of the MySQL commands STATUS and SHOW STATUS.
Essentially, I want to connect to the database from a .net app, check the status, such as how many connections, table locks, errors, etc... and display that information on my application.
Any recommendations?
I have a question I hope someone can help me with.
My situation:
I have a single-step job in SQL Server, which runs a stored procedure, A. This stored procedure invokes another stored procedure, B. In B, one of the statements is a 'BACKUP DATABASE' command, and a database is backed up to a file.
The job is started by an application. Once started, the application then uses the SQL-DMO property CurrentRunStatus to periodically check the status of the job. When the property returns the value SQLDMOJobExecution_Idle (indicating the job has completed), the application code then continues processing, and attempts to access the .dat file produced by the 'BACKUP DATABASE' command.
My problem:
On occasion, the application will hit the problem where either the backup file cannot be located, or the file is still being locked by another process (Error=The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process).
Is anyone able to shed some light on this?
I assume that the job will only return a completed status after:
(a) both A and B have completed execution, and
(b) the BACKUP operation has completed
Is it possible that even though SQL Server indicates the job has finished, that the BACKUP operation still hasn't completely ended?
Thanks for any help,
Andrew
Hi
My boss and I have recently started designing a new database, and we've got into a bit of a debate about creating status tables (e.g. order statuses).
It was my intial instinct to create a separate table for each kind of status (e.g. an OrderStatuses table, a JobStatuses table, etc), however my boss wanted to create one table containing all the statuses, with an extra field for defining what kind of status it is.
I was just wondering what others thought was the best approach.
Thanks

A stored procedure named remove_books, which remove books if the conditions are true.
If stored procedure is executed. That means, it removes the bookNumbers from table2 if the conditions are true. Lets say it removes 234 from table2
then
do update in table1 status = 1 for BookNumber 234.

Hi All,
Using SQL Server 2005 w/ SP2 I have a simple select query with a parameterized WHERE clause that in Management Studio runs nearly instantly, everytime. Using the same login, when I run the same query using SQL RS the results (only 6 rows) takes upwards of 5 minutes. If I look at the Activity Monitor, it shows the process as suspended and indicates a CXPACKET. Everything I have read on the forums about this indicate it is an issue with not having SP2 , which I do. Or a 64 bit version, I have 32. Or for large bulk updates, I am doing a very simple select. Does anyone have any clue on this?
regards
Bill
Hi everyone,
while executing sp_who sub directory, I see a column which makes me totally confused. This column is status column.
I understood nothing about its usage. So would you please inform me ?

This probably isn€™t a T-SQL question but couldn€™t find an appropriate place in the forum for it.
I€™m building a statistics page for our customers and i want to show how long the SQL server has been up since the last restart, I€™ve got the windows uptime from elsewhere but wondering if there€™s a way to get the SQL Server uptime.
Thanks
