How To Document ETL Packages/processes
Apr 2, 2008Is there a common way to document ETL (packages / data flows)? I looked for documentation templates in the internet but didn't find anything which was useful.
Thanks,

How Should You Document The SSIS Packages?
Oct 17, 2006Well - we havent done it with DTS packages - but now that we are moving to SQL 2005 and SSIS & .Net (from SQL2K & asp) - it sounds to be as a good idea to document. How should I get started on creating documentation for SSIS packages?

Calling SSIS Packages From ASP.NET - Packages With File System Tasks End Abruptly
Jan 9, 2007I've run into a problem with SSIS packages wherein tasks that write or copy files, or create or delete directories, quit execution without any hint of an error nor a failure message, when called from an ASP.NET 2.0 application running on any other machine than the one where the package was created from. By all indications it appeared to be an identity/permissions problem.
Our application involves a separate web server and database server. Both have SQL Server 2005 installed, but the application server originally only had Integration services. The packages are file system-deployed on the application server, and are called using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime methods. For all packages that involve file system tasks, the above problem occurs.
When the above packages are run using the command prompt (either DTEXEC or DTEXECUI) the packages execute just fine. This is expected since we are using an administrative account. However when a ShellExecute of the same command is called from ASP.NET, the same problem occurs.
I've tried giving administrative permissions to the ASPNET worker process user to no avail.
I have likewise attempted to use the SQL Server Agent job approach but that approach might not be acceptable for our clients since it means installing SQL Server 2005 Database services on the application server.
I have read the relevant threads in this forum, namely http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1044739&SiteID=1 and http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=927084&SiteID=1 but failed to find any solution appropriate for our set up.
Anybody got any idea on how to go about this?
Integration Services :: Remotely Execute Packages On SSIS Server - Packages Are Deployed In File System
Apr 22, 2015We manage some SSIS servers, which has only SSIS and SSIS tools installed on them and not the sql server DB.
SSIS packages and configuration files are deployed on a NAS. We run the SSIS packages through DTEXEC by logging in to the server.
We want to allow developers to run their packages on their own on the server, but at the same time we dont want to give them physical access on the server i.e we do not want to add them into RDP users list on server properties. We want them to allow running their packages remotely on the server.
One way We could think of is by using powershell remoting and we are working on that. But is there any other way or any tool already present for the same.
Blocking Processes
May 29, 2001I have upgraded a MS SQL database from 6.5 to 7.0. The database functioned fine in 6.5, now I have a table that is locking due to a blocking process. If I kill the process all is fine, but am trying to determine what is causing the process to hang. Has anyone experience any similar situations.

Hi.
Very long story and I will not bore you with it. What I need to do is call a stored procedure and from within that stored procedure, initiate other sp and get out before those other sp are finished running.
I know I can execute a job but my volume would be about 1 job per second with a life of 2-5 seconds. So in a very short period of time, I can stack up a large volume of jobs.
Anyone have any better ideas ?

SQL Performance And Processes

DAO &> SQL Server Processes
Oct 24, 2005I need to know exactly what VBA lines Create and Destroy SQL ServerProcesses - i.e. those visible in Enterprise Manager under Management[color=blue]> Current Activity > Process Info.[/color]Why?I am experiencing strange behaviour with Processes that are createdwhen I create a DAO Database Object with the following line:Set m_ResDatabase = DBEngine.Workspaces(0).OpenDatabase(strDSN, False,False, strODBC)This creates the process as expected.However the following lines don't always close the ensuing Process:If Not m_ResRecordSet Is Nothing Thenm_ResRecordSet.CloseSet m_ResRecordSet = NothingEnd IfIf Not m_ResDatabase Is Nothing Thenm_ResDatabase.CloseSet m_ResDatabase = NothingEnd IfIf Not m_ResWorkspace Is Nothing Thenm_ResWorkspace.CloseSet m_ResWorkspace = NothingEnd IfIt seems as if SQL Server keeps hold of the first two Processes andthen will release any subsequent ones.Can anyone shed any light in this - or any good web pages where Imight find some answers?Regards Chris

No Processes On The End Of PIPE

How To Increase The Maximum No. Of DB Processes?
Sep 4, 1998I am receiving an error from my ODBC driver “Maximum number of DBPROCESSes already allocated.”
I confirmed that there are 25 connections and that this is the default. This is caused by error message 10029, SQLEDBPS, when the maximum number of simultaneously open DBPROCESS structures exceeds the current setting. I would like to increase this maximum.
I have found only two ways to do this. One is using dbsetmaxprocs using C and the other is using SqlSetMaxProcs using Visual Basic. My problem is that I am interfacing to SQL Server using a third party tool that is doing the lower level programming.
Is there some way that I can increase the maximum number of DB processes for all databases that are part of the SQL Server 7 environment, or can I set this value using a program that is called from a stored procedure?
Any ideas in this area will be greatly appreciated.

Defing Business Processes
Feb 12, 2007Sorry, didn't quite know where this should go.
I'm reading Kimball Group's "Microsoft Data Warehouse Toolkit"
Has anyone got any experience in defining business processes? I'm struggling a little to look at my employer's recruitment busines and work out exactly what the real processes are.
Or maybe one of you has read something somewhere about this specific skill?

Me: What do you want to know from your data warehouse?

Limiting Active Processes?
Jul 23, 2005We 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?

How Can I Kill Sleeping Processes In SQL Server?
Sep 14, 2006Dear, Our ASP.NET scripts send SQL statements (as inline SQL or SP) to process the requested job. After the job execution, the process ID stays in the server and waits for next command with sleeping status.Since this process does not go away, next job adds another process and eventually, the server is overloaded with these processes and dies. How can I kill this sleeping processes?Regards,Echo
View 6 Replies View RelatedHandling Long Running SQL Processes
Feb 10, 2008Hello,
I am having some difficulty with data-driven processes in an internal web application using ASP.NET framework 2.0 with SQL Server 2000.
I have a facility where the user enters search criteria to retrieve a list with the idea being that when they click a button the list set is migrated to a table as a batch. The SQL Server processes to perform the database operations can take up to 5min because of volume of data and relational complexity, which is fine.
The only problem is that I'm having trouble managing the SQL Server process if the user closes the browser or go to a new URL etc. If this happens on the client side it's like the HTTP request is terminated but the SQL statement left on the SQL Server still running, eventually it runs to completion but I would prefer the SQL process to also be abandoned and rolled back.
Any idea what is happening here and how it can be handled?
Thanks for any help.

Mutiple Processes/connections Problem
Dec 27, 2004Hi All,
I'm relatively new to ASP.NET coming from ASP. I've created a new, relatively simple ASP.NET application using WebMatrix with various controls and pages accessing an SQL Server database.
3 people are trying to use this app. After a short amount of time, the server starts kicking back an error message that it can not open a connection. I go in with Enterprise Manager to the SQL Server and I can see a long list of processes there almost as if each page is opening a connection and not closing. I'm explicitly closing all connections in my code where I open them for use by a data reader. What about data grid controls. Do they leave connections open? How about the drag and drop insert/update/delete functions. Unless I'm mistaken, this should close the connection when the function completes, shouldn't it:
Try
rowsAffected = dbCommand.ExecuteNonQuery
Finally
dbConnection.Close
End Try
I originally did this app connecting to an Access database but had the same problem. I figured it was due to the known connection issues with Access via ADO so I upsized to SQL Server and over time, get this same problem.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Larry
Killing Processes Prior To Restore

Excessive Blocking - Runnable Processes
May 23, 2006Hi there,
Currently using SQL Server 2000 (SP4). The following condition started occurring last week:
- Server has excessive blocking
- Majority of the processes are in runnable state
- Excessive blocking happens for a few mins. and repeats again during the day. Does not happen at night.
- Nothing on the server errorlog, profiler
- CPU averages 40 - 50% at that point of excessive blocking
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
