SEEKING BASIC INFO ON SQLAgent - TSQL Jobstep Type Program_name(s)

May 16, 2008



I'm trying to ascertain how I can find out more about a particular job.

The information I have from a script I have to identify deadlock root causes gave me back this information:
spid 86 is blocking spid 51... spid 86 info: SQLAgent - TSQL JobStep (Job 0xBAD836E3D331B44BA4CCAC400D244B17 : Step 1)

Well, that's good to know, but I would like to be able to identify the particular job that 'owns' TSQL JobStep (Job 0xBAD836E3D331B44BA4CCAC400D244B17 : Step 1).

I've read the BOL on the sysjob type tables; and, while they tell me about the columns in the tables and what they are, they tell me absolutely nothing about how one goes about figureing out what I want to know.

I suspect one problem I have is that '0xBAD836E3D331B44BA4CCAC400D244B17' needs converting to something else and I have no idea how to go about doing this. I was never that good at converting hex (I assume that is what this is) when I was doing it rather often, which is years ago, so I really have no idea how to start.

Can anyone throw me a lifeline here?

Seeking Info On 2-node Active Passive Sql Setup

Jan 14, 2004

In desperate need of implementing a solution where the customer has purchased a CMS to replace their corporate site and wants to use MSSQL as the DB server type. I have 3 servers allocated to me to complete this and I could use some advice on the best setup.
THey're running windows 2003 standard server along with sql 2000 standard server. The intended plan is for the 2 servers to become web servers with the last server becoming the sql server. The CMS will reside soley on the sql server and the content for the web site on the seb server(s).
What I need to know is if it's possible to set up an active/passive node to accommadate this using the items mentioned above? From what I've been reading sql 2000 enterprise does clustering but I'm hoping this version of sql can be used for something.
Any responses are appreciated.

SQLAgent - TSQL Jobs Hangs (SQL Server 2005)

Aug 15, 2007



I have two tables
t_DTM_DATA_STAGING around 2 million records
t_DTM_DATA around 251 million records

The below SQL statement looks for records in the t_DTM_DATA_STAGING table that are not in the t_DTM_DATA table and adds them to a 3rd table. (t_DTM_DATA_STAGING2)

This statement has been running fine for weeks, but now it seems to get hung every day. I ran sp_Who2 and it says the status is runnable. I let it run for around 5 or 6 hours the other day to see if it will finish but it didn't. This SQL job is step 3 in a 6 step SQLAgent job that usually finishes in 30 to 45 minutes.

I'm not sure how to troubleshoot this problem. No other jobs are running at the time this job runs.

Could this SQL statement be written a better way?

Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

Basic Info Needed On SQL Server

Nov 10, 2000

I'm wanting to start to understand SQL Server. I've got the Beta Version of MS SQL Server 2000 and was wondering whether I could install this on my Windows Me box and start developing? Is this wise, or should i not use the Beta version? Is there a time when the Beta version "runs out"?

Are there any good basic SQL web sites out there? I know all about Access developement and i know some SQL, but i know nothing about SQL server. Which is the best site for me?


Thanks.

Basic TSQL Question

Dec 29, 2007

Hi

I have a basic SP query which filters a column (Name), but can also be filtered by another column if the user provides a parameter (Post Code). How can I write this in one TSQL stament rather than having two staments, but ignore PostCode if they have not provieded it.

SELECT Name FROM Customers WHERE Name LIKE @Name AND PostCode = @PostCode

If PostCode = '' in the above example then nothing is returned. Im sure there is a way to ignore the second filter

Many thanks in advance

SQL Agent Jobstep Output File Contains Automatically Generated Header

Mar 28, 2007

Hi,



I've created a stored procedure that creates a script to create a number of objects within the database (based on what existing objects are in the database). From Management Studio, this works fine, and the output is exactly as I want it.



I'm now trying to create a job that will execute this stored procedure, and deposit the results into a file somewhere on the server. When the job runs, the script is created in the correct place and is essentially ok.



However, there are a couple of questions I'd like to ask.



Why does SQL Server Agent put a header at the top of the output file? I was hoping to be able to use that output file 'as is' and execute it automatically to recreate my objects when required. (Obviously, I can manually remove the header, but this is an inconvenience in this situation). How do I stop it?



Also, when executed from SSMS, the output is correctly line-spaced. But, the output from the scheduled job adds an extra line between each line of text, which is, again, inconvenient. Why does it do this, and how can I prevent this (again, without manually editting the output)?



Any thoughts and help greatly appreciated.



Cheers

Simon

Execute SQL Task : Input And Output Parameters In Tsql Stataments With ADO.NET Connection Type

Jan 2, 2007

Hi Everyone,

I haven't been able to successfully use the ADO.NET connection type to use both input and output parameters in an execute sql task containing just tsql statements (no stored procedure calls). I have successfully used input parameters on their own but when i combine it with output parameters it fails on the simplest of tasks.

I would really find it beneficial if you could use the flexibility of an ADO.NET connection type as the parameter marker and parameter name can be referenced anywhere throughout the sql statement in no particular order. The addition of an output parameter would really make it great!!

Thanks

Is There A System Table With Timestamp Info Or DTS Job Info?

May 7, 2007

I want to be able to see when records have been added to a table. The issue is we have a DTS job scheduled to run every night. The developer who wrote it password protected it and doesn't work here anymore. I want to add a step to this series of DTS jobs and want to run it just prior to his job. Is there a way to see when the records are being added or when this job is being run? Thanks again, you guys are the best.

Seeking BEST Method For SQL To MSAccess

Jul 12, 2004

I would like to pull some data from a SQLServer database, and save it into an Access MDB file (which can be empty to start). I would then zip up the MDB and download it to the user.

I am seeking advice on the most "elegant" or "efficient" way to do this. Here are some ideas I have been considering:

1) Should I start with an empty template MDB and file-copy it before I populate it? Or is there a neat way in ASP.NET to allocate a brand new MDB outright?

2) I could read the SQLServer data into a Dataset object. I could then open a connection to the MDB, create a table object, defining all the columns, etc., and then I could write the data to the new table object. BUT ... I have a hunch there is a nifty ADO.NET way to save the data already in the Dataset object right into the MDB (creating the table and columns as a matter of course) ... all with an instruction or two (or three). Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

Attach Db ( Desperate Seeking For Help )

Apr 29, 2002

A database with 1 mdf and 2 ldf has been detached from SQL Server 7.0 . Then removed the log files ( they are gone , unable to recover ) and there's no backup at all . Now I want to attach the database with the same mdf , but got error msg - 'Device activation error'. It seems like it's looking for one of the log files.

Is there any way to recover the db ?

I guess NOT , isn't it ?

I don't understand why it doesn't work with sp_attach_single_file_db and sp_attach_db . I actually tested it with a dummy database with 1 log file , and it worked - a new log file was recreated. Thus I performed in production server. Don't understand why it doesn't work.


thanks in advance.

Novice Seeking Advice With SQL 2000

Aug 10, 2007

Hello,
 I am asking a question i have seen many threads on, but I am looking for an idiot's guide on how to convert my SQL 2005 database to SQL 2000 so i can get it to run on my web hosting server. I'm very new to asp.net , but have ahd years of experience in normal HTML and a year or two in the old ASP.
 I was advised to learn ASP.Net 2.0 and have found it nothing but brilliant. The intergration with SQL 2005 made it a lot quicker to link up a database than using Access. Unfortunatly my hosting company is a little behind and still using SQL 2000. There isn't mch databse intergration (a few aplication forms) so I dont mind re-writing the whole database but I dont know how to set Visual web developer up with a SQL 2000 Database. I have also read from various other forums that you can convert a databse to 2000 by doing something with the scripts, but the explaination is too complicated for me to follow.
 Is there anyone out there who wouldn't mind going over some old ground and explain this all in simple terms? Im using 'SQL Server Managment Studio Express' (although i dont know how to use it) and 'Microsoft visual web developer 2005 express edition' .
 Thanks for reading this

Seeking: Alternatives For Initiating SSIS

Feb 8, 2008

Hello all, I'm new to SSIS and this forum, and this is my first post.

We're migrating a 2000 DTS ETL process to 2005 SSIS. We really like the enhanced functionality of SSIS thus far.

One problem we have with our 2000 process is that runs at 1:00am each morning. The scheduling is done via a distributed scheduling tool called Maestro. Our process pulls data from a mainframe-based DB2 OLTP and reformats it into SQL Server reporting tables. We have nightly mainframe batch processing that updates the DB2 tables, and we need those updates on a nightly basis.

The mainframe batch process starts at 8:00pm each evening. It finishes normally by 1:00am 90% of the time, but it is 20+ years old, and has its share of problems, especially during month-end. The problems can't be resolved until the next business day in some cases.

We'd like to elegantly connect the two processes somehow so the SSIS ETL process kicks off when the mainframe batch process finishes. I intentionally didn't use the word 'trigger' up until this point.

It would not be a problem to modify the mainframe batch process to insert or update a DB2 table that SSIS has access to, but I don't think we can get the mainframe batch process to update SQL Server 2005 tables...?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated--TIA!

Replication Scenario - Seeking Suggestion

Jul 2, 2007

I have two sites. Site A and Site B

Each site has two databases

Site A

Db1

Db2

Site B

Db1

Db2

Site A Db1 has to perform transaction replication to Site A- Db2 and Site B- Db1 and Db2.



I started Site A as pubisher and distributor and Site A and Site B both as subscriber.



Site B is in a different geographical area (state).



----------

Please suggest the best scenario to save bandwidth and server load for Publisher, and Distributor.



-------

Earlier I thought that I will implement local replication between Site B - in between Db1 and Db2. The Sql Server does not let me set Db1 as publisher, and distributor for its local database Db2.



-------

P.S. My all databases need same transactions though they are connected to different hardware at different places. So please don't question that why I need four similar databases.

Seeking Testing Volunteers W2K MTS/DTC To VMS DECdtm Distributed 2PC Transactions

Jul 20, 2005

Hi,I am seeking the help of volunteers to test some software that I'vedeveloped which facilitates distributed two-phase commit transactions,encompassing any resource manager (e.g. SQL/Server or Oracle) controlled byMicrosoft's Distributed Transaction Coordinator in a Windows2000environment, with any resource manager under the control of DECdtm (e.g. Rdb(or Oracle via the XA Veneer)) in a VMS environment.[Yes, at some stage, I hope to sell this software and make money out of it,so unless you have a large philanthropic streak or are simply a techie wholikes to stay on top of Windows<->VMS connectivity issues, then you may wishto look away now. But if you do choose to participate, then rest assuredthat I have no interest in your personal or company details. (Just yourwork-rate :-)]What differentiates my Transaction Manager software from existingTransaction Monitor packages that are already in the marketplace (and whyyou should be interested) is that it is based on the Transaction InternetProtocol TIP standard. (RFC 2372) For those of you who don't know, thebeauty of TIP's "Two-Pipe" strategy is it's application-pipe (or middleware)neutrality. Whereas most XA implementations mandate homogenous TransactionMonitor deployments (such as Tuxedo everywhere, Encina everywhere, MQSerieseverywhere, ACMSxp everywhere and so on . . .), hotTIP from TIER3 Softwaregives you complete freedom to choose the middleware product(s) that bestsuite your particular application and heterogeneous network needs.Would you like to talk to VMS with TIER3 Sockets, COM or DCE/RPC? BEAMessageQ, IBM MQSeries or HTML? The choice is yours and yours alone. Butonce you realize that you need to encase your critical transactions withinthe ACID properties of a true Heterogeneous Two-Phase Commit then you willcome to the conclusion that you need a Transaction Manager that looks a lotlike this.Another drawback of traditional "One-Pipe" strategies is that they precludethe run-time determination of transaction participants. (Functionalitywhich may be advantageous in a wide-area or Internet based application.)Anyway, this is what I have: -On the Windows side, you need absolutely *NO* additional software! I'llreply to this note with a brief description of the COM+ and DTC functionsthat you would need to invoke in order to successfully push a MTS/DTCtransaction to VMS. NB: These are standard Windows APIs that are fullydocumented on MSDN.On the VMS side, I have a VMSINSTAL saveset that (all zipped up) is some150KB that I'm happy to e-mail to you along similar lines to the VMShobbyists (non-commercial use) license. I'll reply to this note with anInternet Daemon (INETd) example of code that uses my software to cedetransactional control, over an SQL insert into a Rdb database, to MTS/DTC.It's under 500 lines long and contains all of the DCL, 3GL, SQL required toproduce a working example of a TIP-2PC capable TCP/IP auxiliary server. Thisexample will insert a row into the MF_PERSONNEL.Employees table on the VMSside in co-operation with Windows2000 MTS/DTC client that is inserting a rowinto the NORTHWIND.Employee table. Commit them all or roll them all back.So, in summary, If you'd like to volunteer to put hotTIP through it's pacesthen simply reply to this mail.Regards Richard MaherPS. The following are a few functionality restrictions with the currentversion of my software that may effect your decision to participate: -1) Transaction has to be started/mastered/coordinated by W2K MTS/DTC2) Transactions cannot be PULLed from VMS and must be PUSHed from W2K3) No cluster-wide recovery.(If a txn falls over after being prepared then you have to wait for thatspecific node to become contactable again even though that lovely RDMrecovery job is sitting on another node protecting the database until myhotTIP TM tells it to commit or abort.)4) There is currently no Alpha or Itanium version available. The Alpha portis currently in progress but, for the time being, you'll either need a VAXor a VAX emulator on your PC.

Horizontal Variety Seeking Association Rule Problem

Jul 13, 2006

I read somewhere that market basket analysis finds rules with substitutes as likely as rules with complements due to a consumer behavior called "horizontal variety seeking". This is when customers buy more than one product in the same category even though they are subsitutes. For example, when people go to the grocery store and buy soda, they buy coke and sprite at the same time even though they are substitutes of each other. I was wondering if anyone has experience with this anomaly and how they solved it. I found a time series model called the vector autoregressive model which is used to find the elasticity of prices over a time period. Does anyone have experience working with the VAR model? I am having trouble figuring out what some of the variables in the model are.

Below is the paper

I hope somebody can give me a clue for this problem. Our SQL Server was installed with default option. The SQL Server account is .SQL-Cmdexec. I tried to create two backup jobs to save daily backup files into another server. The SQL Server could not detect that server drive during the database backup set up. I knew that was because the SQL Agent account could not access to that server. I had the following questions:

1. How to grant write right to current SQL Agent account to another backup server?

2. It looks like .SQL-cmdexec is created by SQL Server default installation. If I try to change this account to another account, the Enterprise Manager is the only place to be changed or there is another place keeps SQL Agent account info.

3. If I try to give SQL Agent account access to the other servers, what is the relationship between NT User manager and SQL Agent accounts.

Thanks.

Joan

SQLAgent Login

Aug 17, 2000

SQL Server name: BOProd
Domain: BODomain
I have an NT User 'SQLAgent' with domain Admin previleges.
SQL server has 'SQLAgent' user with NT authentication and system admin previledges.
I am in process of setting up mail services for sqlmail and sql agent mail.
As a part of this process, when I log on to the server computer as SQLAgent, it doesn't let me access Enterprise manager saying
'Login could not be established to BOProd-Login failed for user 'BODomainSQLAgent'. It does allow me to connect to query analyser by providing 'user name/password'.

Any idea why connection to enterprise manager fails?

SQLAgent Not Starting

Feb 12, 2002

The SQLAgent service was modified to login as a domain account. SQLAgent would not start. I made sure that the account was in the Admin group on the server, I setup the account as a System Administrator in SQL. I made sure that the network protocols in Client Network Utiliity and Server Network Utility where the same as other servers using the domain account. The message I'm getting is...

SQLServerAgent could not be started (reason: Unable to connect to server; SQLServerAgent cannot start).

I modified the properties for SQLAgent back to login as local account and I still get the same problem.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
