On Demand SSIS Agent Job Updates
May 18, 2007
Afternoon all,
This should be brief, hopefully. Every morning all our SSIS updates run on a schedule(s) by SSMS Agent Jobs. Most of the time this is acceptable, however, during the month end accounting process it would be desirable for accounts to be able to run one of the jobs on demand.
Is there a way that this can be done without having to install and use SQL Server Management Studio on account machines? The potential damage that can be done, even inadvertently, with this utility is too great to even consider giving them this package.
Thanks in advance,
Paul

We have transactional replication publications from SQL 2014 to SQL 20122008 R2. When we add new tables to the existing publication and start the snapshot agent, Snapshot agent updates the statistics for random tables on the publisher DB. It appears that all the outdated statistics are being updated regardless which table is being initiated. In a highly transactional environment we can't update the statistics every time. its causing huge issues for us. Is there any work around for this ?Â

Hello everyone,
I would like to develop an SSIS solution which loads data from large-sized csv files into the database either in REPLACEMENT or UPDATE mode.
In REPLACEMENT mode I delete all the exisitng data (if any) in the corresponding tables and then I do insertions with a few transfomations beforehand. I have accomplished this mission successfully with SSIS as follows:
- Control Flow: Execte SQL Task for performing pre-execution tasks --> Data Flow Task --> Execte SQL Task for performing post-execution tasks
- Data Flow: Flat File Source --> Some transformation components --> OLE DB Destination with FastLoad options.
In UPDATE mode I would like to update existing records in the database. I have found a great deal of articles talking about updating existing records. Based on my readings, here are the statements, I have concluded:
1. If the expected number of updates is high, use a staging table and perform the update as a batch operation from the Control Flow.
2. If the expected number of updates is low, use an OLE DB Command transformation.
Question:
Well, in my particular case all the rows in the source file represent record updates. And I am expecting a large number of update records. Thus, according to the previous conclusions, I should use the staging table alternative.
What I do not like about this alternative is that I will have to insert all the source rows in a staging table first and then I will have to update them all. This seems like too many extra work.
Is there a way to avoid this extra insertion work? I am thinking of something like "FastLoad Update" similar to the "FastLoad Insert", where I directly map input columns to output columns after defining a certain WHERE-CLAUSE?
Thank you in advance.

I have an SSIS package (TransAgentMaster) that I recently modified to include a call to a child package via the file system. The child package creates a text file. When I run the package in dev studio then the child package/text file is produced.
I then imported the TransAgentMaster as a stored packagesfilesystem package into SQL SSIS and executed the package. The child package produced the text file.
I then ran the SQL Server Agent to see if the child package would work and it did not generate the text file. Thus after updating a SSIS package importing the package into SSIS the job that calls the package will not call the child package. Please not that the TransAgentMaster package calls 7 children packages €¦ just not my new one.
Any thoughts why the agent will not run the child newly crated childe package?

in this senario new records r insrted properly
but though package runs without error records not get updated in Destination.
In OLEDB COMMAND my query is like below,

In advanced editor of OLE DB I hv created additional 16 paramater columns though i assign datatype as numeric to tht columns when i press refresh automatically it changes to DT_STR.
My destination table columns r numeric .
I though due to this datatype mismatch the error came So i change the datatype of dest to varchar to make compatible with OLEDB Comand Transformation. THN also no Use NO UPDATES
package is running without error but records not get updated.
if change the flow like below

Hi,
I have a table customer wich has the columns phone_number(char type) and ok_to_call(bit type). There are already data in the table and the column ok_to_call only contains the value false for every row.
Now i want to update the latter column. I have a text file with a list of phone numbers and i want that all the rows in the Customer table(phone_number column)that matches the number in the text file to update ok_to_call to true.
This is to be done in SSIS(Integration Services). I'm new at this and i've looked around that tool but is a lot of items, packages and stuff so i dont know where to begin.
Would appreciate help on how to solve this issue in SSIS. What controlflow/Data flows to use,wich items and packages to use, how to configure and how to link together?
Regards

I have created a package that will insert new rows into destination1 if the AnID does not exist in Source1.Â
This uses a data flow task which contains a oledb source, lookup and oledb destination.Â
Source1
Field Name AnID Acol1 Acol2 Destination1 Field Name AnID Acol1 Acol2
I want to be able to update the destination1. Acol1 and destination1. Acol2 if the Source1.Acol1 or Source1.Acol2 have changed.
To do this, would I need to create separate data flow task that includes a source, lookup and destination.Â
Or is this possible to build into my insert new records data flow task...

I have a report which is scheduled to run every monday morning and it generates PDF and writes it to a shared location. Shared location and schedule is defined through Subscription. All this is working fine so far. Now I need to provide a facility from the webpage to execute this scheduled task on demand. So there would be a button on the website which would actually run this scheduled task and update the PDF at the shared location. How do I run this scheduled task/subscription using the vb.net code. Is there anything in ReportService2005 or ReportExecution2005 webservice? Please advise.
Thanks

I have a report that runs perfectly well when scheduled, but when run on demand it seems to put a ridiculous load on the target database, sometimes to the point of virtually halting the server. Is there any reason it should behave differently when run on demand than when it's scheduled? Thanks.

I'm trying to find the best way to add ability to send a SRS report by email on-demand. My users want to access a reprot via the default SRS HTML viewer and click something to intitate an email. They would then supply an email address to receice the reprot.
The subscription option doesn't work because the receipents will not be getting reports on a regular basis.
I was thinking about adding an email link on a report that called a web service sending adequate information about the reprot (report name, parameters used, etc.)
Is there any sample code to have a web service render a report and send via email?
Is there a better way to accompolish this requirement?

Hi there
We are thinking to create a small scale of the "Software On-Demand" model for Support Ticket Management System which means that the client can login to do a support tick and shared the application using the same URL.
Couple options though:
1) We design by table such has a SUPPORTS table with has a foreign key of the ClientID from CLIENTS table. This will cover that client can only can a specific data within the SUPPORTS table.
2) Alternatively, create a dynamic table which is created specifically for "Client B" for instance for SUPPORT table and it will be called such as ClientBSupport table. Something that can be common it will be shared such as like look-up table.
Couple consideration though:
1) Considered client wanting to backup this table. Obviosly it has too querying based on the client id to get the right data.
2) Security withing that table. Is the data needs to be incrypted ... I guess this is expensive excercise.
3) Possibly have a model that access to this table in querying directly etc etc.
4) If the Support table is getting larger and larger and it's not fair for small client accessing the small information which has equal to the one that has big records? Cause it's sharing table.
Any inputs I am really appreciated.
Thanks

I have a dashboard page that I would like to load fast. But I would also like the user to be able to run the report On-Demand. The report has start date and end date parameters which default to the first and last day of last month. If I use a Cache plan that loads at 6AM the report runs with the default parameters set in the report, the user has to wait until it completes before they can change the parameters.
If I uncheck "use default" parameters in the report I lose the ability to set a cache refresh plan with the default parameters because the option is greyed out. So is there anyway outside of creating a second copy of the report to allow a user to open a report, change the parameters and run it, but also have a way to schedule some sort of Cached report for the default parameters so I can put that on a WebPart page that would load instantly?

We have some reports run quite slow because the queries are complicate and tables are large. So we create a materialized view in Oracle which store the result from the query and refresh it occationally. How to do this in MSSQL? I try the indexed view but seems it has lots of restrictions, our query has sub queries and cross database table joins so can't use the indexed view. Any other object or temp table can be used to cache the report data and be accessed globally by other procedures?
Any suggestions are welcome,
Cheers

Phil writes "Hi,
Here is my dilemma. I would like to create an SSIS package that will dynamically run different scripts/reports for my company. I would like to use one SSIS package and then dynamically create the jobs based on the schedule of when these scripts should run. For instance, if I have two scripts that create excel documents that run at 2:00 P.M daily I would like to use the job agent and have both of these scripts start at 2:00 PM. Instead of having one run and then the other has to wait until it's complete. First of all, is this even possible? Second has anybody ever played around with this and if so can you give me some guidance?

I have a project that consists of a SQL db with an Access front end as the user interface. Here is the structure of the table on which this question is based:
Code Block
create table #IncomeAndExpenseData (
recordID nvarchar(5)NOT NULL,
itemID int NOT NULL,
itemvalue decimal(18, 2) NULL,
monthitemvalue decimal(18, 2) NULL
)
The itemvalue field is where the user enters his/her numbers via Access. There is an IncomeAndExpenseCodes table as well which holds item information, including the itemID and entry unit of measure. Some itemIDs have an entry unit of measure of $/mo, while others are entered in terms of $/yr, others in %/yr.
For itemvalues of itemIDs with entry units of measure that are not $/mo a stored procedure performs calculations which converts them into numbers that has a unit of measure of $/mo and updates IncomeAndExpenseData putting these numbers in the monthitemvalue field. This stored procedure is written to only calculate values for monthitemvalue fields which are null in order to avoid recalculating every single row in the table.
If the user edits the itemvalue field there is a trigger on IncomeAndExpenseData which sets the monthitemvalue to null so the stored procedure recalculates the monthitemvalue for the changed rows. However, it appears this trigger is also setting monthitemvalue to null after the stored procedure updates the IncomeAndExpenseData table with the recalculated monthitemvalues, thus wiping out the answers.
How do I write a trigger that sets the monthitemvalue to null only when the user edits the itemvalue field, not when the stored procedure puts the recalculated monthitemvalue into the IncomeAndExpenseData table?

Is there a detailed, step by step manual that explains how to set this up?
I can run the package from SSIS but the process to set this up from the job agent is really murky mostly from a security standpoint of setting up user/proxy etc
So I need a cookbook with nice clear explanations
Does one exist?

I've seen many postings on various forums on how to get SQL agent to execute an SSIS package. I have one that was originally created via the import wizard in SSMS, later modified in VS2005, and then re-imported in SSMS using the Object Explorer interface to load the dtsx file into SQL storage. I've tried several package protection options when importing the package: "Don't save sensitive data" (the package has no passwords in it), server storage and roles, and a specified package password (which I entered as a /DECRYPT command line parameter in the Agent job step). Agent is running using a domain admin account. No matter what I've tried, I still get an error during job execution that it failed to decrypt the password XML node. The package runs just fine when executed manually in the SSIS Object Explorer.
How can I resolve this?

I need to pass a value to a package level variable in an SSIS package from a SQL Agent job. If I use dtexecui the syntax for passing the variable in the Property Path is
Package.Variables[User::MyVar].Properties[Value]
and the package runs fine.
When I use this syntax, or any similar format I can think of, in SQL Agent, my job fails. In SQL Agent you put this in the Property Path on the Set Values tab of the Step that runs the package. If I remove passing in the variable my package runs fine.
BOL says use the format Package<container name>.<property name> but I can find no examples. Can anyone provide a working sample to make this work?
Thanks.

Hello,
I'm new here and hope you will be able to help me.
I have created several SSIS packages with Visual Studio 2005.
They all work fine in debug mode.
I have been able to make them work with a ODBC connection by using a ADO.NET connection.
Then I exported them to the file system in my SQL Server 2005 database and created a task in SQLAgent to run them.
All the packages using the ODBC connection fail with the following error :
Login failed for user XXX
Error : 18456; Severity : 14 , State : 8
This error is a password mismatch.
I tried several database users and checked the passwords multiple times.
It looks like SQL Agent is not able to retrieve the password although it is stocked in both the ODBC connection and the SSIS connection.
Can you help me?
Thanks,
Ares

Dear All,
I'm using SSIS package to extract text file, and load into SQL Server. I test the SSIS package import manually, it works. Then I'm using SQL Server Agent to set up schedule. According to the log, the job agent work at the scheduled time, yet job agent throw out the error message.
Message1:
The job failed. The Job was invoked by User sysAdmin. The last step to run was step 1 (Extract Data).
Message2:
Executed as user: SQLSERVERsysAdmin. The package could not be loaded. The step failed.
Now I only have 1 step and set up "on success action" then "quite the reporting success". Any clue? Thanks

I have been using SSIS for about two months now and one of the main difficulties I have had is migrating Sql Agent SSIS jobs around environments.
Usually, the SSIS fails because of permissions to file systems, data bases, etc, but until now, I have had to discover these almost by guessing because the job history never game me any useful information. Also, from what I see, the SSIS logs have been unreliable, at best.
What I have done lately is creating Operating System (CmdExec) Steps as part of the job (not SSIS steps) and inserting the output of dtexec.exe into the history.
This seems to give me information that has been really hard to get, otherwise.
My question is (I am no DBA or ETL expert), is this the best way of getting the output of the package when debugging migration issues? Why doesn't the SSIS Steps have a similar feature of outputting useful info to the job history?

i just completed local testing of an ssis package that I'd like to schedule for execution thru sql agent nightly. I dont mind trying this for a while without deploying either to a database, but am not sure if this is possible. Should my strategy be to get both to a server first or is there a way to plumb them together and see the pkg kicking off nightly before deployment of either?

Hello! I have an SSIS package that basically collects Excel files from an FTP server, deposits them to a file share on a SQL server and then processes each Excel file into a SQL 2005 database using the ForEach enumerator.
The package runs flawlessly when executed directly on the SQL server. The problem starts when I set this package to run via the SQL Agent. I have looked through these forums and other places and have done what this article suggested http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918760; changing my package protection to
"Dont Save Sensitive" and setup the package to store its configuration in a SQL table. Despite all this I still continue to get this error when the package is run via the Agent:
SSIS Error Code DTS_E_CANNOTACQUIRECONNECTIONFROMCONNECTIONMANAGER. The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "ExcelSourceFile" failed with error code 0xC0202009. There may be error messages posted before this with more information on why the AcquireConnection method call failed.
The Excel files are not password protected, no funky settings, nothing complicated, its just a plain Excel file with a few rows of data on one worksheet. The package transfers the files from the FTP server to the share on the SQL server with no problem, I can see that the files exist on the share, so it isnt a case of the Excel connection manager not finding any files to process.
The Agent account is running under administrator privileges and has full access to the share, so it shouldnt be a permissions issue either.
I have no idea what else to check, any ideas?
Thanks!

Hi,
My package takes 1 global variable and I have set up jobs to run this SSIS with different variable values.
I select the package using the UI provided via the job set up screen. The job step type is Operating system (CmdExec).
When package are run by job, it seems that the job can not find the package. But, how can it not find the package when the package was selected from a list that the UI displayed? The error is below.
"Executed as user: <<LOGGEDIN USER(with admin right)>>. The process could not be created for step 1 of job 0xFECED6C09CC650489084E91C2FCF52FB (reason: The system cannot find the file specified). The step failed."

I found a similar thread posted under the same title as this by dba123. Unfortunately, his solution does not match my problem.
I have a SSIS package that will run fine in debug mode, will run fine when published to the server when I right click and execute it. However, when I run it through a job, either scheduled or running the job manually, the job fails. There is an entry in the servers application log telling me that "login failed for user xxxxx" where xxxxx is the name of SQL login that I am using. I know that the login works (logged in manually to the server via management studio, and it runs fine when I run it manually). Both connection managers are SQL, no flat files or other data source types. All the commands are T-SQL. The SQL Agent has full database access to both servers that the connection manager connects to - and its NOT the profile that is reporting as failing - it is a domain account.
This is totally bizzare - ANY help would be appreciated.

Hi everyone,
I have a log table that track my SSIS scheduled jobs. This SQL Agent job runs every 15 minutes for now. The problem is, when I check the status(log) table, I see it fails and succeed at random. I have checked the history and I can't figure out why it is doing this.
Has anyone any idea what is going on? At least for the fact that the package succeeds after it failed shows that nothing is wrong with it. Again when I query my detination table, it is loading data as expected when it runs succeessfully.
Please any idea?
PkgID Pkg_Name Start_Time End_Time Run_Duration Success_Flag
