Monitoring Service Broker Queues Through A .NET Process
Jul 19, 2007Is there a way for a .NET application to receive a notification when a service broker queue has been updated with a new message? I tried using SqlDependency on an SB queue but I got an "invalid" error in my notification handler.
Such a notification would be much better than having to poll the queue every N seconds.
Thanks
Interesting Behavior Of Service Broker Queues
Dec 23, 2005Hello All:
I've been experimenting with the new SQL Server Service Broker, and I think I've discovered some interesting behavior. Service Broker relies on "Queues" to store messages that need to be processed. Service Broker operates by sending a message from one Queue (the INITIATOR Quque) to another Queue (the TARGET Queue). A Queue can have an "Activation Stored Procedure" associated with it. This procedure is what actually processes the messages in the Queue.
The first behavior I obeserved related to the setting of a Queue's RETENTION parameter. The RETENTION parameter indicates whether or not the Queue will retain a copy of the messages it receives. By default, the parameter's value is "OFF" (meaning it will not retain messages). In the Activation Stored Procedure of my TARGET Queue, I used "sp_send_dbmail" to send an e-mail message. I wanted to capture the "conversation_handle" (a uniqueidentifier that identifies a particular message) and include it in the body of the e-mail. I was unable to capture it, because the Queue's RETENTION parameter was "OFF". When I tried to capture the conversation_handle from the INITIATOR queue (whose RETENTION parameter was "ON"), I was successful. The moral of the story is you apparently need to have RETENTION = "ON" if you need to capture information from a Queue.
The second behavior I observed relates to the setting of a Queue's MAX_QUEUE_READERS setting. This setting allows you to automatically invoke multiple instances of the Activation Stored Procedure. As messages come into the Queue, the Queue creates an additional instance of the Activation Stored Procedure up to the number you specified in the MAX_QUEUE_READERS setting. This allows parallel processing of messages in the Queue. There is also a programming technique called a "RECEIVE LOOP" which is used for processing messages. In the RECEIVE LOOP, you have a parameter called WAITFOR which tells the Queue whether it should stay on constant alert for new messages or whether it should time out after a specified number of seconds.
If you have the Queue wait indefinitely (by not specifying a TIMEOUT value in the WAITFOR statement) and you have invoked multiple copies of the Activation Stored Procedure, the procedure will remain in memory indefinitely. Therefore, if you make a change to the code of the Activation Stored Procedure, the change will NOT be reflected in the Activation Stored Procedure until you change the STATUS of the Queue. I had changed my procedure so that it would not send an e-mail, but the e-mails kept coming. The e-mails did not stop until I executed an ALTER QUEUE statement. I ran "ALTER QUEUE queue_name WITH STATUS = OFF;" and then I ran "ALTER QUEUE queue_name WITH STATUS = ON;" After that, the changes were reflected in the procedure.
Be aware of this behavior as you design your Queues.
Service Broker Mirror Database
Feb 14, 2007Hi
I tried to setup service broker to fail over to a mirror database. After the target database failed over, the message I send stays in sys.transmission_queue with no error in transmission_status. I check the mirror server log and I see the following.
An exception occurred while enqueueing a message in the target queue. Error: 15581, State: 3. Please create a master key in the database or open the master key in the session before performing this operation.
The database has the master key because its a mirrored database? Did I have to do something extra here

Apr 5, 2007Hi,
I am struggling with the position SSB could take in an SOA. If I would want a broker in the general sense, meaning an intermediary sitting between applications which exchange information through messaging, would SSB be a good candidate? I know Biztalk is probably the primary candidate, but in my scenario I would end up with Biztalk apps with empty orchestrations. Also, I think Biztalk is more expensive to manage. So I am looking for a lightweight broker for a simple SOA targeted at application interoperability, no fancy business processes in sight.
I look forward to some responses.
Kind regards,

Many Queues And One Activation Procedure For That Queues.
Sep 22, 2006Hi, All!
Could you please help me in my problem?
I develop Service Broker applcation, SB has 20 queues, also I have one Activation Procedure which carries out following actions:
CREATE PROCEDURE proc_ms_Activation
AS
BEGIN
WAITFOR (RECEIVE TOP(1) message_type_name, message_body, conversation_handle, message_id FROM Queue1)
-- process message, save statisctisc and etc
END
Problem in that: when I execute command WAITFOR (RECEIVE TOP (1) message_type_name, message_body, conversation_handle, message_id FROM Queue1) I should specify a name concrete Queue, for example "... FROM Queue1 ". I would like to use one procedure for processing all Queue.
How I can design my application that one Activation Procedure processed messages from all Queues?
Thank a lot for help.

How To Write .net Code To Place XML Messages On Queues And Retrieve XML Messages From Queues.
Apr 2, 2008Hello, please help!!
I have spent days searching the web and forums for an answer to this simple question and cannot find an example.
I have built a service broker application on sql server 2005. The application puts some xml on an incoming queue which is basically a few parameters to be used in a query. This queue will then call a stored proc which does some business logic and puts the resulting results in another queue also in xml.
I have written a test harness in SQL to put messages on the inbound queue and then some sql to retrieve the returned code from the outbound queue.
What I want to do is be able to convert the SQL which does this into .net code to be used by an application. i.e. write in .net some code to put xml on a queue and then write some .net code to retrieve xml from another queue.
I wouldn't have thought this would be a difficult thing to do and would have been done hundreds of times, but unable to find anything to simply send and retrieve XML to service broker queues....
thanks for your help.. its really needed. I found some links, but they are really vague and often doing select statments in service broker or something like this. I don't want to call any sql, just send and recieve XML on the queues.
any example code that does this, would be really helpfull

Service Broker And .net Windows Service
Sep 26, 2007I am doing some research to see if the Service Broker technology would help my company with our Enterprise application. Here is our scenario: We have a 3 tier system. The first tier needs to contact the second tier asynchronously. Hence, using queues is a good option. However, the process that needs to happen on the second tier is mostly process intensive with little database updates. Is it still worth our time to use Service Broker?
I like the concept of Activation that Service Broker provides. But, from what I am reading most of the documentation describes activation as a way to call another stored proc. I definitely dont' want to do any process intensive work on the SQL server. So here comes my question...
How would I use a windows service to listen to the activation event from the Service Broker. I could have multiple windows services watching the same queue (scalable). Would I have to handle collisions myself? If so, I think I would rather keep it simple, and just use a simple table as my queue.
Thanks for your comments in advance...

Sep 11, 2006Hello , I am trying to Implement distribution of the Stock Quotes over the LAN(only within the Network) and showing the live changing stock Quotes on the front end (in datagrid) installed at each clients desktop.I am receiving the Stock prices over the TCP / IP from the Stock Exchange. I am recieving atleast 10-15 messages per second over the TCP / IP from the Stock Exchange. Now i need to distribute this feed to Each connected client.
I tried doing it from TCP / IP , but in vein. Can we install the SQL 2005 Database Client Version on every client and use Service broker instaed of Live TCP / IP connections programmatically?
Ideally Can i dump the meesages from Stock Exchange in to each connected client's database locally and each front end application will keep a record of all the incomming messages.i.e Front end have a notification event , it will referesh the Datagrid in Front end accordingly...
ALL my front end application are made in dot net
Pls suggest if this above workflow will help me

Is SQl Service Broker What I Need??
May 16, 2007Hi,
I am looking at the Service Broker as a way to notify multiple clients that there has been data changed on a table in the shared database. These clients may or may not be online. When there is a change, the notification should fire off a query to refresh the clients local cache. Is this a situation where Service Broker would help me? Can multiple clients recieve the notification at different times ( some recieve while online, some recieve when they come back online)? Any help on this would be appreciated. It seems from what I read that the messages are pulled off the queue when a notification has taken place. Is this correct? If so, can I set it to behave differently?
Thanks,

Now to my questions =)
HOW do I delete rows from these tables? How come these tables hust grows and grows, could it be any setting in the SQL 2005 Server or is it the customer who has programmed his application wrong?

SQL Service Broker Vs MSMQ
Aug 23, 2006I'm in the process of doing the initial research for the architecture of a large scale, transactional messages routing platform.
My initial
design called for a series of MSMQ queues and Windows Services, written
in C#, to process the messages in these queues. There will be incoming
and outgoing queues, queues to store unroutable messages, etc.
My
application will be routing many hundreds of thousands (and eventually
millions) of messages per day. These message are very small (< 200
bytes each) and must be routed very quickly. (<1 second processing overhead per message for high priority messages.)
Using the term
"routing" may be a bit misleading. The messages arrive via TCP socket
connections. I will just need to take in a message, examine its
intended destination, and send it to one of several outgoing socket
connections, likely on different machines. Some messages require higher priority routing than others,
but I don't need multi-hop routing or anything like that.
Of
great concern to me is that there are absolutely no single points of
failure in the system. Because of this I was considering using a combination of MSMQ and Windows Services in a Clustered environment.
Can the Service Broker provide me with this kind of functionality? If so, how well does it perform and scale? Is it a better choice for messaging applications that require high transactional throughput than MSMQ?
I'm just trying to get an idea of what products/services I should look into further.

Service Broker Permissions

The schema applied to tables and Activation SP is [dbo] and also the queues are executed as [dbo].
Everything works fine!Cool!
Now that we have to deploy evertything on production I would like that the service broker conversation runs using a specif user ( in this way when I log the Service Broker's errot in the event log I see this specific user and not my name)
Which kind of permission I have to give to this the user .. it is enought that I assign to it the schema DBO or I have to change the definition of my queues( execute as '[dbo]') or to create a new schema?
Thankx everybody fo any help!

SSIS And Service Broker
Feb 12, 2007I am trying to use SSI Sto receive messages from a Service Broker Queue and continue to have difficulty doing so.
I have come to the point where I need to get the messages that share a conversation with this BatchEnd message type before I get any other messages, as this message type tells me information about how many others there are.
I built this script and ran it in management studio with success and felt it should work for me running as the sql for an OLE DB source.
declare @ch uniqueidentifier;
select @ch = conversation_handle
from dm.[consultant queue]
where message_type_name = 'BatchEnd';
Receive conversation_handle, message_type_name, message_body
from dm.[consultant queue]
where conversation_handle = @ch;
But SSIS constantly complains about it. I finally profiled SSIS to catch the sql that it is executing. It is below and this fails with an error about a missing conversation_handle.
declare @p1 int
exec sp_prepare @p1 output,NULL,N'declare @ch uniqueidentifier;
select @ch = conversation_handle
from dm.[consultant queue]
where message_type_name = ''BatchEnd'';
Receive conversation_handle, message_type_name, message_body
from dm.[consultant queue]
where conversation_handle = @ch;',1
select @p1
go
Now I'm not sure which team may own this, but shouldn't this sp_prepare work. If I change this to use a table variable then the prepare seems to work just fine, but then I never actually get any data back into SSIS. It is almost like it calls it twice; although, I could not confirm that with profiler.
I'll cross post this in the Service Broker forum too.
Thanks!
