How To Create DTS Package For Table Alteration And Movement Of Data
Mar 5, 2008
Peace be on you,
In my organization, we have a database which exceed unto 2 GB. The application on which we are working is developing since the time of asp / cb 6 and in short it is the baby of many developers. It is a kind of ERP which has no documentation.
Problem 1:
=========
Now, to reduce the size of the database we have examined some of the orphan procedures, tables, and columns. Is it possible for me to create a DTS package which create the backup of all the orphan stuff to some other database and delete it from the actual one. Moreover, We still have doubts that some of fields which we think are orphan, might not be. So we need another DTS package which rollback all the changes. (Any Idea for that)
Problem 2:
=========
We want another DTS package which would move the data from one database to another and same rollback DTS for this one. (Any Idea for that)
Problem 3:
=========
How can we use DTS programming to do these tasks ? what benefits do I got from DTS Programming over DTS Wizard.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Every month a client sends a spreadsheet with data which we use to update matching rows in a table in the database. I want to automate this using a DTS package but am having quite a bit of trouble accomplishing what I think should be trivial task. I've been attempting to use a Transform Data Task with a modification lookup but I just keep inserting the rows from the source excel spreadsheet in to the existing destination table without ever modifying the existing data.
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated as to a best practice approach.

I was altering a few columns (setting to allow nulls) on a large table (30+ million records) and the machine naturally crashed. I rebooted, and now I can't connect to the DB - enterprise manager hangs, and query analyzer times out. is it likely the whole DB is screwed up, assuming the table alteration was incomplete?
thankfully, I do have a backup, but for future reference, is there a preferred way to make changes to large tables? last time I did this it took over an hour, and enterprise manager gives no progress indication to make me feel more comfortable that it's actually doing something...

I have requirement like to develop dynamic package for inserting data from flat file to table.
Find below points for more clarification :--
1) if I changed the flat file values and name in source variable AND the table name should be also changed based on variable value .
2) it should dynamically mapped with column values with source file as we have to insert data in target table.
See below diagram for more clarification.

Hello all,
Please help....
I have a text file which needs to be created into a table (let's call it DataFile table). For now I'm just doing the manual DTS to import the txt into SQL server to create the table, which works. But here's my problem....
I need to extract data from DataFile table, here's my query:
select * from dbo.DataFile
where DF_SC_Case_Nbr not like '0000%';
Then I need to create a new table for the extracted data, let's call it ExtractedDataFile. But I don't know how to create a new table and insert the data I selected above into the new one.
Also, can the extraction and the creation of new table be done in just one stored procedure? or is there any other way of doing all this (including the importation of the text file)?
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi all
I am wanting to continuously monitor a source table throughout the day and as data becomes available, process it and insert it into one of a number of tables.
I have tried achieving this using a FOR LOOP and setting the halt condition such that it is not stisfiable. However, this has a couple of problems:
1) It runs in a tight loop and consequently degrades system performance enormously.
2) I can't get transactions to work. I would like each iteration of the loop to spawn a new transaction under which the tasks in the loop can run. Therefore, if one of the tasks fails during such an iteration, only the updates affected by that iteration are lost.
Ideally, I would like to be able to put a wait statement within the loop container so that it runs every couple of seconds. And would also like to implement transactions as described above.
All help is appreciated.
Jays :-)

The secondary server for my availability group was recycled. When SQL Server came back online the data movement for a database was suspended. The error log shows:
"AlwaysOn Availability Groups data movement for database 'XXXXXXXXX' has been suspended for the following reason: "system" (Source ID 5; Source string: 'SUSPEND_FROM_RESTART'). To resume data movement on the database, you will need to resume the database manually. For information about how to resume an availability database, see SQL Server Books Online."
I was able to resume data movement with no issue. I would like to understand the technical reason as to WHY the data movement was put in the suspended state and left there upon recycle. I searched for an article that would list possible reasons (BOL, Google, Bing, etc..). I just could not find much information out there on 'SUSPEND_FROM_RESTART'.

I am aware that TDE protects data at Rest and not during communication or data in motion (UNLESS you use Encrypted communication channels using SSL certs etc). Hence I am thinking of doing data export from a TDE encrypted database to a database on the instance where TDE is not enabled or supported. I believe it works and need to take care of relationships between tables.The target database is hosted on SQL 2012 standard edition on which TDE is not supported.

Hi all,
I'm getting this error on expanding the Databases node in SQL Server Management Studio Express Object Explorer:
Failed to retrieve data for this request. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.SmoEnum)
An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.ConnectionInfo)
Could not continue scan with NOLOCK due to data movement. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 601)
A similar error message also appeared when I tried opening an existing data connection within Database Explorer in Visual Web Developer Express. (However, the web application ran fine and it managed to access the database normally.)
These errors only appeared recently. Any ideas how to go about solving this issue?
Thanks in advance.

We have a stored procedure that failed with: Could not continue scan with NOLOCK due to data movement
We are running with ISOLATION LEVEL READ UNCOMMITTED. There are other jobs running, some of which might be hitting these tables (all using the ROWLOCK hint - though I know that's not guaranteed), however, this stored proc would not be going near the same rows. But even if they were, we'd be happy with either the before-look or after-look. This needs to be a low-impact job and should have minimal impact on ther other jobs, so we can't take out locks. Is there any hint we can use to do this? e.g. can we tell the query to just wait until the data has stopped moving then try again?

Hello,
I have a field in a table called 'CourseId' - the course Id should always contain a backslash somewhere in the list of numbers eg :

How can I update the field to replace the / with a
Any help is very much appreciated.

Hi,
I want to create a package to import some tables from database X from Server XYZ to database X of server ABC.
(As my X database on server XYZ is gets updating everyday so i need to update it on X of server ABC using the package.)
So i have created a package using the import export data transformationn services.
It runs fine while creating. i.e importing data for the first time. But when i have saved that SSIS package on SQL or File system and scheduled it to run daily, but if fails everytime. I am not getting the error its giving. Because everytime when i go to view history of that package it just gives me messages like step1 started by user xyz and failed.
Can you please help me to sort out this problem.
If possible give me steps which will help me to create package to run above scenario.
you can mail me the solution on abhijeets@nedbank.co.za
Thanks in advance.

Hello Guys,
I am working in one company and currently I am assigned to new project for Data Migration from company X to our company Y using SSIS. I am totally new and i just completed 5 tutorial which was gien on MSDN website.
Basically client is going to send us first flat file with 1 million records with Header, Detail and Trailer records.
I want to create a Package in such a way that it dumps all this first load into 7 to 8 different tables at a time.
we also have to include functionlity for validation and error check.
On successfull load error file should only return Header and Trailer but no detail records.
If there are any errors then error file should contain Header, Detail records which were unable to load plus trailer which we have to sent back to client.
When 2nd file comes that time we have to check whether this is new records or change (update) one depending on Flag which tells it.
This is basically high level idea of my Package what i need to create. If u guys have any question then let me know.
I know you guys are very experienced one. Anyone of you please give me some detail idea on it I would really appricate it.
I have very limited time line for it.
Thanks
Shah

Hello everyone,
I'm not at all comfortable with SSIS so please forgive me if I overload you all with information here:
I need to create a data table using SSIS which does not delete the previous days data. So far all the data tables we use to write reports in Visual Studio are constructed in SSIS as follows.
1 - Excecute SQL Task - DELETE FROM STOCK
2 - Data Flow Task
3 - Data Reader Source - SELECT * FROM ODBCDATASOURCE
4 - OLE DB Destination (Creates table STOCK)
The data tables which are created this way are stored in a data warehouse and scheduled to refresh once a day, which means that any data from yesterday is lost when the updates run. So, I tried to create a table which never has its previous days' data deleted by using just the last three steps above - and it worked great in Visual Studio, no problem at all. However, when I added this SSIS Package to the Update Job in SQL Server Management Studio, the job totally rejected the packed with the message: "The command line parameters are invalid. The step failed".
I thought I could work around this problem by asking the job step to excecute a simple SQL query to insert the data from table1 into table2 (and would thus negate the need for a SSIS Packege at all), but it threw me a curve ball with some message about not being able to use proxy accounts to run T-SQL Scripts.
If anyone knows how to create a SSIS package in which the data never expires please could you impart some wisdom my way. I only need to do this once for a specific report.
Please, when answering, bear in mind that I'm a simple fellow with little understanding of the inner workings of SQL Server and its various components, so please use short sentences and simple words.
Thanks in advance,
Chris

Hi all,
I have SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMS Express) and SQL Server 2005 Express (SS Express) installed in my Windows XP Pro PC that is on Microsoft Windows NT 4 LAN System. My Computer Administrator grants me the Administror Privilege to use my PC. I tried to use SQLQuery.sql (see the code below) to create a table "LabResults" and insert 20 data (values) into the table. I got Error Messages 102 and 156 when I did "Parse" or "Execute". This is my first time to apply the data type 'decimal' and the "VALUES" into the table. I do not know what is wrong with the 'decimal' and how to add the "VALUES": (1) Do I put the precision and scale of the decimal wrong? (2) Do I have to use "GO" after each "VALUES"? Please help and advise.

Hello,
In SQL Server 2000, is it possible to take a table with one field (column), and pivot the table so that the characters in the row data become the field (column) names of another table ( or in a View)? The number of records could vary.
If so, how would I do this?
Sample table;
Create Table dbo.MonthlyData
(
Categories varchar(30) NOT NULL
)
Sample data;
Sales Volume 2005-02
TotRefVol 2005-02
Sales Ratio 2005-02
Sales Volume 2005-03
TotRefVol 2005-03
Sales Ratio 2005-03
Sales Volume 2005-04
TotRefVol 2005-04
Sales Ratio 2005-04

In SQL Server Management Studio, I can right-click a table and choose:
Script Table as > CREATE To > New Query Editor Window
When I run the script on another database, it creates the table without the data. Is there an option to bring the data (i.e. the contents of the table) along with the table definition?

I am trying to create a DTS Package which will run a SQL query and export the results to an Excel file. I would like to the name of the excel to be "dynamic". What I would like is for the name to be ChronicDownSiteReport - mmddyy.xls. The mmddyy is the date which the package is executed.
How can I do this?
Also, I want this package to be excuted at 1am every Sunday Morning. I have attempted to schedule this to run, but when I come to work on Monday, the excel file is not present and the email, which is sent telling me that the file was created is not in my mailbox.

Hi,
In my application, i have two package, parent package and child package. the parent package is executing child package using a Execute Package Task.
"Execute Out Of Process" property of Execute Package Task is set to TRUE. means the child package will be run in separate process not in the process of Parent package.
this was working fine, but at a particular client location. its failing the error is "not able to load child package".
for me it seems some setting on server restricting to create separate process for child package execution.
when "Execute Out Of Process" property of Execute Package Task is set to FALSE. its working fine.
can anyone help what could cause its failure with property set to TRUE.
Appreciate any help.

Would you know if this is a third partysoftware that does this with nice colors and all?Do you think I can do similar quality data model map using VSTE forDB Pro?Thank you

I have a table named sales, num of rows are 20. total number of rows for stor_id is 5 rows
I assume that when I create a cursor like this one which will have 5 rows from the cursor Now if I print a statement , I assume that I will have the statement 5 times( one for each row) Am I correct...
well, if this is the concept, I am still having one printed statement.. I do not know why , am I doing something wrong?
thanks for help
CREATE PROCEDURE p_cursor @ord_nbr char(4)
declare rst cursor for
select * from sales
where stor_id= 123
open rst
fetch rst
if (@@fetch_status=0)

We're very interested in having our application use SQL/e but we can't have the 4 gig limit. It makes sense to me that SQL/e simply should not be able to access a file over the network, and then you wouldn't have any reason to put a 4 gig limit on it.
At that point it becomes a very flexible alternative for remote users that need to have a large amount of data (i.e. documents, images etc.) with them.
We'd love to start building an abstraction layer so that we can support both SQL Server and SQL/e so that we can support network and remote users and not have the nightmare that is SQL Server Express installation. (care of the windows installer group's bugs...)
Thanks! Hoping for a favourable answer!

I have view something like
Create view All_employee
AS
SELECT Emp_Name, Emp_code FROM dbo.Employee
UNION ALL
SELECT Emp_Name, Emp_code FROM Emp_201402.Employee
But we have a different "Schema" for same table because we have archive table with same table name but with different schema name. Now we have req to make view which contain data of all table. But I can't seem to figure out how to do it in a view.
SET NOCOUNT ON
DECLARE @Count INT, @TotalCount INT, @SQL VARCHAR( MAX )
DECLARE @Schema TABLE ( ID INT, NAME VARCHAR(512) )
INSERT INTO @Schema
SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY SCHEMA_ID), Name FROM sys.schemas where name like '%emloyee%' ORDER BY schema_id ASC
[Code] ....
Don' think that works.
Is this possible with a view or it other way to do it?
