Yao,
Could anyone help me with, or point me to information regarding, scheduling jobs for MSSQL 2000? I need to execute a SQL Command, monthly, which sets a budget field to a fixed ammount, something like: UPDATE Programs SET Budget = 500.

Hi,
I had a few jobs as schduled DTS tasks in SQL 7. I manually saved them and reset the connection. I am able to execute the tasks successfully. However, on scheduling the same, it is failing. I am able to schedule other tasks successfully. So the scheduler is working OK. All tasks that involve dts are not running properply with the scheduler.
Any help appreciated.

Hi
I have a strange scheduling problem.
I have a job, i test it through BIDS - Works
I test it through SSMS - works
I run the job - Works
I schedule for a run time job - Works
I schedule for a recurring job - Works
However (here is the really annoying part) it fails to run at the night run (11.20PM)
there are 6 other packages that run fine after it , 11.30 , 1AM .. 4 AM etc ...
So
last night I changed the package to run at a later time, and it worked, but the other package that
ran 2nd (which now ran 1st) failed !!
its almost as if the 1st package has to fail !!!!!
When i look at the history and detailed log all it says is "The step Failed"
anyway , I can set up a workaround by starting a dummy job that is supposed to fail..
FYI the jobs are run under administrator and they are protected by a password (encryptSensitiveWithpassword) .
Hi Group,
Is it possible to schedule and execute sql jobs from an asp page.
I am developing an application that requires an administration section. In this section the admin would like to change / update the schedule of the sql job and also run the jobs ad hoc. Basicall y they would like the functionality of sql agen in enterprise manager to be available from their web application.
Has anbody done this before ?
All information / solutions shall be psoted back to the group as I reckon this would be pretty useful functionality.
Thanks in advance
Tony
I created an agent job, and it runs fine, but I want more control over the scheduling. I need to schedule jobs to run Sunday through
Thursday at 8:00pm, skipping Friday.
How can I use the agent job interface and customize the schedule this way? Will I have to resort to a Windows Service and control the
scheduling that way?

Hi there,
I wanted to know if there is a possiblity of running a scheduled VBScript file under MSSQL 7.0 using the - Management->Sql Server Agent->Jobs.
When I create a Step, there are these given options:
1. Active Script:
I understand that the configuration would allow VBScript or Java Script or Others.... but the command could only be as long as 3200 characters. My script is longer than the mentioned limit hence I will have to use an external .vbs file.
I don't know how the third option of others to be used.
2.Operating System Command(CmdExec):
I can only use .BAT, .CMD, .EXE, .COM extentions in this. Again, I would have to convert my .VBS file to a .EXE and then schedule it. It has a lot of overheads to it, which I consider is not apt.
Could anyone suggest me how to go about scheduling a .vbs file on MSSQL 7.0 with set frequency.

Hi,
This is the situation:
There are around 300 jobs on the server. The server shutsdown abnormally and is not functional for let's say 2 hours. After the server is back on, I need to find what jobs had to start during the server was down.
Is there a way to get this list? I tried to write an SQL script that tells me the needed information, but the job schedule sheme is so complex that it would take too much time in developing such SQL script. Maybe anybody has a better solution, or has already made a similar script?
ThankYou.

I am a bit new to the MSSQL server. In our application, we use so many SQL queries. To imporve the performance, we used the Database enigine Tuning tool to create the indexes. The older version of the application supports MSSQL 2000 also. To re-create these new indexes, I have an issue in running these "CREATE INDEX" commands as the statements generated for index creation are done in MSSQL 2005. The statements include "INCLUDES" keyword which is supported in MSSQL 2005 but not in MSSQL 2000.
Ex:-
CREATE INDEX IND_001_PPM_PA ON PPM_PROCESS_ACTIVITY
(ACTIVITY_NAME ASC, PROCESS_NAME ASC, START_TIME ASC, ISMONITORED ASC)
INCLUDE
(INSTANCE_ID, ACTIVITY_TYPE, STATUS, END_TIME, ORGANIZATION);
Any help in creating such indexes in 2000 version is welcome.
Thanks,
Suresh.

I've been tasked to move our production databases on MSSQL 2000 to 2005. I've supported MSSQL since version 6.5 and performed migrations to successor versions.
Current Environment is MSSQL 2000 32-bit with current Service Packs.
I've performed mock migrations on Test servers upgrading all Production instances simultaneously from MSSQL 2000 to 2005 32-bit. The Test environment is identical to Production minus server name, IP etc. Also I have a separate server with MSSQL 2005 installed where I use the DETACH / ATTACH and BACKUP / RESTORE method for migration / acceptance testing. There are approximately 30 databases totaling 70 GB. This has gone as expected and fairly successful. Vendors have been coordinated with to update code and staff for acceptance testing.
I'd prefer going directly to MSSQL 2005 64-bit instead if possible due to memory benefits etc. This is where I'd like some feedback prior to borrowing a 64-bit server for testing.
Upgrade options:
1. Is it better to migrate from MSSQL 2000 32-bit to 2005 64-bit via:
a. DETACH / ATTACH
b. BACKUP / RESTORE
c. Is one method more advantageous relating to the end result?
2. Regarding XP clients, have issues been experienced with the default SQL Server driver or is an alternate recommended for XP clients to connect to a MSSQL 64-bit server databases?
3. If you have performed this migration and have relevant experience please pass them along.
I'm going to be creating a few triggers on tables to add new records to a seperate table (AlertData). Come 6pm or so I want a scheduled job to automaticaly run to make an HTTP wbe request to my SendAlerts.ASPX page. The page will simply make a database call for all users and the AlertData table contents, build what it needs and send out all the email alerts.
My question is is how do i create such a scheduled job under Sql Server 2000? It should run everyday at 6pm EST (even if the dbase server is restarted) and make an HTTP web request to my URL.
Thank you.
Hi all,I have a case :I have an employee SQL-View (not table) in my sql server 2000 database. This view actually connect to an oracle database server, because all our employee data is located on the oracle database server.This linked server soon proven to be the cause of poor application performance (response time is very slow). So we decide to put a local copy of employee table in our sql server 2000 database. We have successfully copy it to our database. But the most up-to-date employee data is still reside on oracle server. To deal with this problem we need to scheduling a sinchronization between sqlserver 2000 and oracle everyday at 01:00 o'clock midnight.I never get task like this before, how to make a scheduling in sql server 2000? my friend suggest a dts scheduling but unfortunately I haven't found any tutorial about this for beginnerthanks

I want to schedule a task that checks if a file(s) exists on d:Acc and then run the sql script shown below i.e. with the file(s) to load the content of the file(s) every day new files will be loaded. after the file(s) are loaded the file(s) are deleted.
I currently can achieve the above using Java and sql server and running the program as a scheduled task... (only reason for change would be that i wouldnt require java, JDBC etc to run the software it would be easy manage, migrate etc)
I wanted to find out if it can be done with sql server directly? (i.e. check if file exist and ased on that carryout the task or other wise just ignore) What do i need to look for? does sql server have a procedural language in it to be used for such thing? does sql server have an inbuilt task scheduler?
I am currently using the following script in a java program please note that i have used fixed values in this script for readabliity (of what i am doing)..
@bulk_cmd varchar(1000)
SET @bulk_cmd = 'BULK INSERT AccInv..VW_AccInvoice
FROM ''d:Invbatch2001.txt''
WITH (FIELDTERMINATOR = '','', ROWTERMINATOR = '''+CHAR(10)+''')'

Hi Guys
There are a few dts packages in our sql server 2000 database which we schedule daily for at night for business purposes.
how can i schedule the same DTS packages in Legacy SQL 2000 DTS when we migrate the Databases across to Sql 2005.
Can that be done or we need to migrate the DTS Package to SSIS

I've tried several different possibilities but don't have enough basicunderstanding of the ownerships and permissions that are involved soI'm looking for someone to explain what is required:I created a DTS package that includes a drop table, create table, anddata transformation task. Originally, my owner was local to the pcworkstation with administrator priveleges. When I executed thepackage on demand (manually, not scheduled), it runs just fine. Noerrors. When I schedule the package to run at a scheduled day/time,it fails with an access is denied message.I originally was using the sql admin user and password in theconnection but the view job history kept referencing "Executed asuser: sqlservernameSYSTEM...." and errored with an access is deniedmessage. Where did it get the SYSTEM user from since my connectionused the sql admin user in my DTS package? Do I need to determine howto get the sql admin user or should the SYSTEM user really have to runthis scheduled job? How do I get the sql admin user to show as the"executed as user"?I created another admin user to see if it had someone to do with thesql admin account but I got similar results. I tried creating thepackage as an NT domain user but got similar results.I'm sure it has something to do with permissions and ownerships but Ireally don't have a clear understanding of how it was intended towork.Any advise you can give is greatly appreciated. I've read alot ofpostings and I'm still not clear on the requirements.

I would like to transfer data from an oracle database to SQL server database 2000. I am using DTS Export/ Import Wizard for this purpose.
My queries are:
1. How can I write the write the Start time, End time, data records that failed to a log file with minimal amount of coding. (I found that Active X scripts can be written although the coding is quite complex).
Can I get some kind of pointers to simple coding that can ensure I log time of run of DTS and errors if they occurred.
2. There is an error log written by DTS, but this is written only if an error occurs and the details of error are not written. I am looking to log successful transfers too. Can the DTS package be modified, with minimal code to achieve this objective?
3. I tried scheduling the DTS through the Edit window that SQL Server 2000 provides but am not able to change the time of schedule.
How do I schedule it?
Thanks,
Karthik
Hi Experts
I am trying to schedule a legacy DTS 2000 package in 64 bit Sql Server 2005.
I cannot use the DTSRun tool on the Command prompt of the Sql 2005. What about dtexec ?Can i run Sql Server 2000 DTS packages from the Command Prompt.
Is DTS 2000 the only way to do that?
Any Advise is greatly appreciated

View 3 Replies View RelatedHi,
I have installed SQL server 2000 (Enterprise) on W2K advanced server using my local "Administrator" account. Using the same account for login, I have created database backup jobs on the server. After this I rename the Windows administrator account to "admin". Now I see that the jobs started failing. The error message indicates that "could not determine whether the 'server/administrator' account has access to SQL server."
Further, when I tried to troubleshoot, I discovered that the job owner name still displayed (through EM) is "server/administrator" account (this account is now renamed). I tried to change the owner name to "server/admin" but it is not getting changed. Hence, I just created a Windows user named "Administrator" and see that the Job is executing successfully.
Please note that the backup is taken on the server itself and SQL server & Agent services are running under security context of a domain account having administrator priveleges on the server.
What I am interested in knowing is what are the reasons for such behaviour? And how to rectify this problem since i really don't want the "administrator" account to be created.
Hi. i'm new to sql server jobs as i have never used the feature manually before. here is what i want to do but i don't know if it's possible.
we have a report we use that's accessed from an asp page. currently, the page uses a stored procedure to generate the data. well, as time has progressed, we've added many items to the report. it now takes a good 15-20 seconds to pull the report. what i want to do is run a job that will compile the data for me and just dump that information into a new table. does that make sense?
can this be done with sql server jobs? thank you.
Hi,
I have been scheduling jobs from past couple months on production but it does not execute on the scheduled time.
I checked the schedule enabled tab, it was enabled when i scheduled the job, but was disabled at a later date when i checked to see why the job did not run.......
Can some one please guide me if there is any process in SQL which disables the jobs automatically.
I want to find out how the jobs when scheduled and enabled gets disabled on its own.
I am trying to migrate few of my SQL jobs to SQL2K5. Can I simply script and execute them on the new environment. I hope the script is forward compatible.

Hello,
I want to move a db from a SQL server 7 to SQL Server 2K. I'll do a backup and restore function to move the database, but how do I handle the objects mentioned in the header ?
Bothe servers (old and new) will have the same name, as well as the DB
All help is appreciated !

We've upgraded our SQL7.0 user db to a SQL2000 system using sp_detach_db and sp_attach_db stored procedures.
And we'd like to transfer our sched jobs from a SQL 7.0 to SQL2000 systems,
if the jobs are created outside a maintenance plan, we can script them out and run the script to recreate them on the 2000 system.
But if the jobs are within a maintenance plan, we would have to recreate these plans manually on the 2000 system, is this the only option we have ?
Any one has a better solution ?
I think "restore msdb from abackup" should work better in this case?
In SQL2000, there is a new DTS task for transferring jobs between 2000 systems (same version), but I don't think it work to transfer them from 7.0 to 2000 ??

Hi,
How does one install MSSQL 2000 on a machine that's already running MSDE 2000? Do i need to unintstall MSDE, or both can be installed seperately??
Is there a way to simply upgrade MSDE into MSSQL 2000?
Thanks!
Hi,
I'm working with SQL 2000 and am just learning about Maintenance Plans (MP). They seem convenient, but after some time, I'm wondering if they're the best approach long-term. Here are my experiences.
Using the MP Wizard, I created a plan with tasks from all the dialogs:
- Optimize database
- Check integrity
- Backup database
- Backup transaction log
- Write a report
I was puzzled to find 4 jobs were created, each with just 1 step, and staggered starting times. I expected to find 1 job with 4 steps. So, brimming with confidence, I did just that. I combined all 4 into 1 job, deleted the 3 other MP created jobs, and checked for any job-specific details in the code. However now when I open the MP, I get this pop-up:
"One or more of the jobs created for this plan has had additional steps added to it. It is not recommended that jobs created by the maintenance plan be modified in any way."
Okay, fair warning. Yet it appears the job and all steps run successfully, both on demand, and on a schedule. So now I'm wondering if jobs always need a MP. If I don't mind working with xp_sqlmaint syntax, it appears the only thing I'm giving up is the MP history. But I expect job history and '-WriteHistory' will minimize that loss.
I searched BOL, this Forum, and Google, and found a couple articles. One author preferred the ease of the Wizard, another preferred the control and added features of T-SQL, but both created a MP in their examples. So I'm hoping some experienced DBAs can advise.
If I create a job with multiple steps, and no MP, are there important things I give up or problems I create?
Is this approach a bad idea in SQL 2005?
At this stage, I don't need replication or other advanced features. Just simple database maintenance.
Thank you,
