hi,
Is there any way to export a set of variables from each other package??
Issues comes when you have to built five packages which share the same variables. It's very tedious and hard to re-write them every time...
Thanks for your time,
I am having problem moving packages/solutions for one folder to other.
Is there any specific way that we have to do this.
I copyed a solution and pasteditin a shared folder and when i open it iam geting connection errors and package correpted errors.
i amy sound funny but pls can any of you tell me the procedure.
thanks

Hi, all. I have more than 100 DTS packages on one server which need to be migrated to another new server. What's the easiest way to do it? I can do it by opening each package then using save as to save into another server. But I have more than 100, so it is kind of tedious to do it.
Is there a way like export those packages then import them? Or script them then run it? If yes, Let me know how.
Thank you in advance.

In sql server 2000 if we need to move a package from one database to another we have to move the package.
But is it the same in Sql server 2005 integration services.
let me know
I need to move total of 50 DTS packages from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005.Could someone give me the best way to do this ?
Do I need to just save the package onto the new server OR do I use the DTS package migration wizard.
What are the problems that can arise ?
We have purchased a new Development SQL Server that is running SQL Server 2005. Our existing Development SQL Server is running SQL 2000.
How can I move the DTS packages from the SQL 2000 server to the new SQL 2005 server? I will be upgrading them to SSIS at some point, but don't have the time now.
thanks

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm working on a solution in Visual Studio that has 3 SSIS packages, and now I want to add a 4th that needs access to variables defined in one of the other packages. How can I do that?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a simple task that I would like to manage through a SSIS package but do not know how to accomplish it. I need to perform the following tasks:
1. update a sql server table (ecwcust) and set the ftpstatus column to 'P' when the column's value is 'E'.
update ecwcust set ftpstatus = 'P' where ftpstatus = 'E'
2. declare a variable and set the variable to the number of rows that have a ftpstatus equal to 'P'
declare @newcustomercount int
select @newcustomercount = count(*) from ecwcust where ftpstatus = 'P'
3. if @newcustomercount > 0, copy all of the rows from ecwcust where ftpstatus = 'P' to an excel spreadsheet.
4. send an email to an email recipient with the excel spreadsheet as an attachment.
5. delete the excel spreadsheet.
I do not know how to create the variable @newcustomercount so that I can determine whether or not to create the excel spreadsheet and copy the records to it.
I have read all the online help and stuff that MS has but I can't understand the instructions. Please point me to some instructions that are understandable.
When executing a package from Business Intelligence Studio variables are well passed between packages but when same is done using dtexec utility variables don't get passed between packages. Does anyone have any idea why this could be happening and what would be possible solutions? Thanks in advance!
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a bunch of variables which I need to initialize from Parameters table in SQL Server database.
I could think of the following two ways
1) Have one SQL Task for each variable and assign a query such as - Select ParamValue from Parameters where ParamChar = '<KeyName>'
2) Have a script task and write VB code to connect to the database and fire one query for every variable and set it accordingly.
I am not totally convinced with both of these approaches. Is there any better approach than these...

I am using Variables to configure a lot in an SSIS Packages.
Over the years you add new variables that are usefull to your default-package.
However to use those in "older" packages you have to open add them manually.
Any way (e.g. skript) to add a set of variables to every SSIS-package in a folder ?
Hi all,
We're just in the middle of performing our first release of SSIS packages through various environments.
The way we are set up currently is the developer will check the package(s) and related config files out of source control, develop on their own machine and check everything in again. Then we deploy the packages consecutively to the Dev, Tst and Prd servers.
We are going down the path of using one environment variable for every config file. some packages share config files (e.g. we've only one config file for each database or ftp connection etc.) and some config files are package specific (error log file connections and success/failure e-mail sources etc.).
What we want ideally is a script that we can check into source control that will create the environment variables on a server at deployment. The "set" command at the command line can be used to change the value of an environment variable, or to create a session-specific variable, but not to create environment variables.
So far the only method that we're using is manually typing in the environment variable names via control panel and copying and pasting the paths into the value fields. Given that we're deploying potentially hundreds of config files, it's obvious that this new-fangled GUI point-and-click and copy-and-paste method of deployment is absolutely foolproof and totaly not prone to any error whatsoever.
Please tell me there's a way to create and set environment variables without going through control panel. running a script or something to do it automatically will: Ensure that each environment is set up accurately and identically, eliminating human error. Ensure that when a developer checks out a package to their local drive, although they may have to change the variable values, he can at least create the relevant variables without having to type them in. Enable efficient migration to another new server (for example during Disaster Recovery).
Can anyone point me to some example scripts at all?
Kind Regards,
Andrew.
It is pretty easy to create the package configuration to the shared, never-changing path to XML file. But to get this to work, I have to add a bunch of package variables which are driven from the configuration. I then use expressions to compute actual paths to source files and packages.
This business of copying a block of variables from one package to another is extremely tedious, and at least to me, something of a maintenance issue. I have found if I get ahead of myself and forget to create the variables first, then Visual Studio is NOT very forgiving, and will complain repeatedly just prior to crashing without the offer to save anything. If I add a new variable, it is like an easter egg hunt. This does NOT feel very single point of maintenance when variables must be used in this way to really effectively apply configuration, and it is so tedious and error prone, and unforgiving. I seem to spend a great percentage of time copying the names and datatypes and values of variables ONE AT A TIME. What is that all about?
I hear people telling the praises of configurations, but I must be missing something.
With DTS I used a system where global scope settings were "injected" into packages as they ran, and I never had to worry about anything, and it was damn hard to goof it.
Please someone, evangelize me!! Are people bypassing VS and using NOTEPAD on the packages or something like that to save time?
How to pass variable from Parent to child and child to Parent Packages is this possible in SQL SSIS 2012. I need this only in SSIS 2012 ...
View 6 Replies View Related Hi,
I am not comfortable with DTS 2000 but I need to execute a encapsulated DTS 2000 package from a SSIS package. The real problem is when I need to pass SSIS variables to DTS 2000 package. The DTS 2000 package have 3 global variables that I can identify on " Execute DTS 2000 Package Task Editor - Inner Variables ". I believe the SSIS variables must be mapped on " Execute DTS 2000 Package Task Editor - OuterVariables ". How can I associate the SSIS variables(OuterVariables ) to "Inner Variables"? How can I do it? Much Thanks.

I'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?
Hi,
I would like to design a SSIS package, which have couple of variables. It loads a xls file specified in a variable [varExcelFileFullPath] .
I will run it by commands: exec xp_cmdshell 'dtexec /SQL ....' (pls see an example below).
It seems it does not get the values passed in for those variables. I deployed the package to a sql server.
are there any grammar errors here? I copied it from dtexecui. It worked inside Dtexecui not in dos command.
exec xp_cmdshell 'dtexec /SQL "LoadExcelDB" /SERVER test /USER *** /PASSWORD ****
/MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING EW
/LOGGER "{6AA833A1-E4B2-4431-831B-DE695049DC61}";"Test.SuperBowl"
/Set Package.Variables[User::varExcelFileName].Properties[Value];"TestAdHocLayer"
/Set Package.Variables[User::varExcelWorkbookName].Value;"Sheet1$"
/Set Package.Variables[User::varExcelFileFullPath].Value;"D: estshareTestAdHocLayer.xls"
/Set Package.Variables[User::varDestinationTableName].Value;"FeaturesTmp"
/Set Package.Variables[User::varPreSQLAction].Value;"delete from FeaturesTmp"

We 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.
Hi all
Our data management system currently runs DTS packages using DTSPKG.dll.
I am currently looking at the possibliity of replacing the DTS packages and SQL 2000 with DTSX packages using SSIS in SQL 2005.
Do I need a new dll? or will the current dtspkg.dll handle the new DTSX packages?
Many thanks in advance!
How do you move a database from lets say E drive to G drive on the same server? Any ideas.
Regards,
I would like to know what is the best way to move all the data from a DB to a new database. Some of the tables has different names, and attributes, so is there a way to create a script or something that will do that.
Both databases are in the same server.
I’m working with an msde database on my local machine, but need to take that database and move it to my remote host. This is problematic because I can not just do a back up and restore.
I was wondering if there were any asp.net applications that would generate lots of sql statements to reproduce the database on my remote host.
I had built a program to back up all the tables in that way, but, forgot that the membership stuff uses stored procedures, and I don't not know how to modify my program in order to back those up too.
Any help will be much appreciated, thank you very much for reading my post
Hello,
What is the easiest way to move a database from one server to another with the all table structures, view and stored procedures?
Thanks,
Can someone tell me how to move the log file for a database from one drive
to anoyher. I want to keep the data on one drive and the logs on another
so I need to move the log files to another drive.
Thanx, Kelly
Without restoring the database, has anyone written a slick little piece of code that moves a file existing on on filegroup to another newly created filegroup without doing it from a restore.
The purpose of doing this is to get rid of one data file and placing the data into the data file we are retaining. We have some more physical file space and are moving data into one data file and one transaction log file.
We have already ran the DBCC SHRINKFILE with EMPTYFILE to move the data,
We have already ran the ALTER DATABASE statement but here, because the filegroup is identified as PRIMARY in the sysfilegroup table, we can not REMOVE the data file because of indexes relating to the PRIMARY filegroup.
So if I could ALTER DATABASE and create a bogus filegroup and move the data file which I want to get rid of into the bogus filegroup, I could ALTER DATABASE with REMOVE filegroup and solve the situation.
Does anyone know of an easier way to do it other than BACKUP database and RESTORE database.....please help!!!
Thanks,
Daimon
Using sp_detach and sp_attach we can move different databases to different locations.
how do we do the same for system databases such as master,model,msdb and tempdb.
As off i know we got to be in master database to runthis command, if not this how do we go about this.
Thanks,
sheena
We will move t-log from one disk to another one. I tried Alter Database and found it did not work for log.

If you want to move all the databases to new server. Stop the SQL server service on existing server. Copy mdf and ldf files of all databases to same location iin new server. Also take the backup of master and msdb database from existing server. Then restore master and msdb on new server.

My question is how to move my database to a DIFFEREN LOCATION on a different server. My two servers are different file layout (not my choice though.)

P.S. Should I use the DTS at all to perform this task?
Hi:
I need your suggestion or experience about how to move a database from SQL 6.5 to SQL 7.0. The server where SQL 6.5 resides locates in different network than SQL 7.0. DTS does not work for the database move because of two server can not talk directly.
We need to do this task very soon in production environment. I tried to backup database to a disk (backup device in SQL 6.5) but I failed to restore it in SQL 7.0 because the backup file was not detected by restore utility in SQL 7.0.
Please tell me what I should do. Besides BCP, are there any other methods to move the database from SQL 6.5 to SQL 7.0 in diffferent networks.
Thank you very much.

Does anyone know how to move the transaction log(s) of a LIVE database to a new location. I must move the log of a database to a new mirrored drive without any disruption to users. I cannot take the database offline or use the sp_detach_db stored procedure. Your inputs are much appreciated!
