SQL 2012 :: Job In Rollback Not Showing In Activity Monitor?
Feb 22, 2015
We have killed a job which is now in KILLEDROLL BACK state. Job activity monitor is not showing any running jobs but I can see the SPID of that job. When tried to kill again its giving the message ‘command completed successfully‘, not able to get the percentage or time for the roll back to complete.
Another DBA tried to create a snapshot and it was stuck and I believe it was because of this ROLLBACK as both were using same Database.
I have a SSIS package set up that will transfer a file from a location on the network drive and transfer it over FTP to another location.
When I manually run the package, the file is transfer with no errors. But when the job is automated (via Job Activity Monitor) the transfer fails?
I have set the ProtectionLevel of the package to "EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey" and also converted the package to a Development Model. The settings for the FTP is saved within the package.
What am I missing? below is the error message

If I'm on a remote machine, meaning a computer not in the WSFC cluster, and I open SSMS 2014, point it to a SQL Instance, and open activity monitor:
1. I get all the panes and charts except % Processor Time.
2. Then, if I authenticate to the cluster's domain by mapping a drive with valid domain credentials, I'm free to put performance counters in the Perfmon - - - but SQL Activity Monitor shuts down with“The Activity Monitor is unable to execute queries against server SQL-V01INSTANCE1..Activity monitor for this instance will be placed into a paused state.Use the context menu in the overview pane to resume the activity monitor.
Additional information: Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))(Mscorlib)”
3. Of course, the Activity monitor can't be resumed via the context menu. Removing counters and closing the perfmon do not work. I dropped the mapped drive and rebooted the machine. That brought back 95% of the information in the Activity monitor.
4. Further experimentation showed that any mapping of drive shares present on the SQL Server to the computer running SSMS cut off functionality of the 'overview' pane in the remote machine's SQL Activity monitor -- the monitor that had been trying to watch the server offering the shares.
Hi experts, I just want to know how can i kill all the processes of a database if the database have more than 100 connections.This is for the purpose of restoring a database.
I have a SSIS which copies data from a table to a flat file. The connection string of this file is variable and the file is reused if not exists and is created if exists.
When I run the SSIS manually from my microsoft visual studio it works properly. However, when I run this SSIS from the Job Activity Monitor, I get the following error:

I want to analyze server (SQL 2005) activity at a specific time in the past. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a log file reflecting the information in Activity Monitor. Knowing that the sysprocesses and syslocks tables feed Activity Monitor, I thought about doing a log analysis on the master transaction log, but I'm not sure that's possible.
Is there a (different) way to achieve this?
Or is there a better approach to identifying processes that cause performance bottleneck/deadlocks?
I've been using the Job Activity Monitor quite a lot and last night I installed Service Pack 1 for SQL Server 2005. I've noticed now that I only have a "Start Job at Step" option when I right-click a job. Whereas I used to have just Start Job or both Start Job and Start Job at Step options.
The problem is that Starting a Job at a Step, produces a modal dialog box which prevents further access to Job Activity Monitor until the job is complete.
I'm hoping that someone has experienced this problem before and knows how to get round it.
The problem we are having is that we have a job that is scheduled to run at 4:00 am each morning, for the past 6 weeks it has done this with no problem. However, this morning it failed. we know it failed because it didn't produce the results it was supposed to. However the monitor said that the job had completed successfully. On examining the history of the job we found that the job was still running!!! When we tried to stop the job by right clicking and selecting the appropriate action. The action available to us was to start the job.
After arguing for a bit we decided to try and run the job again. We did this and found that the job running in the history screen terminated with an error and than ran and completed successfully.
Confused? So are we any ideas or solutions gratefully received
If you are in SQL Server Management console, go to Job Activity Monitor, there is an option 'View Refresh Settings'. You have to enable/check the Auto Refresh option here every time. Is it possible to keep this Auto Refresh enabled?
We have a Windows App and Web App that share business objects which points to a single database. When a Windows user logs in, an average of 50 processes are created in the first few seconds and never go away. The details window is blank and they all remain sleeping from that point on.
I have stepped through the code to see if there is anything odd going on but most of the processes are created when validating the number of parameters the stored procedure has or the length of the stored procedure name. This translates to 1000-1500 processes on average.
Is this normal? Will it hurt performance? Is there a way to remove them?
When I try to open Activity Monitor from SSMS I receive the message "Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED)) (mscorlib)". - more details below.
I have a SQL Server 2012 Enterprise SP1 installed in an Active/Passive cluster configuration on Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise SP1. The problem happens using sa and a domain administrator.
------- more details ------- Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED)) (mscorlib) at System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ThrowExceptionForHRInternal(Int32 errorCode, IntPtr errorInfo) at System.Management.ManagementScope.InitializeGuts(Object o) at System.Management.ManagementScope.Initialize()
The activity monitor is not showing entries for hosts which connect via sql logins (odbc), is this normal? Where can I find a list of protocols in which the hostname/ip can be picked up. We're on SQL 2005 SP1/Build 2153
we have one 'application'-user in sysusers that makes the connect to SqlServer for all users, for example:
Application Login-User: Thomas DB-Connect-User: AppUser
With this solution, in Activity-Monitor or with sp_who I don't know, what is the real name of the connected user. Any possibility to change the login-information after the connect, so that i can see 'Thomas' in Activity-Monitor or with sp_who?
Is there a way to permanently change the order of the columns in Job Activity Monitor?
I'd like to move Duration to the right of Step Name, but this only lasts so long as I have JAM open. Once I close it and re-open, JAM goes back to its default column order. Google gives me nothing but the temporary "drag and drop" method that I already know about.
Please forgive the simplicity of this question - I am not the dba type. When I connect to a server and look at my connection attributes in activity monitor, the user column shows the correct information for my domainusername. When I run a certain stored procedure in that connection, the domainusername changes to another person. We are not using execute as, setuser, or anything special to explicitly change the user. The stored procedure is in a schema that is owned by dbo (principal_id = 1 - I verified by checking sys.database_principals.)
For SQL Server 2000 we have a user login mapped to msdb with database role membership of db_datareader and public checked. This seems to allow the developers to view the Management Activity monitor. For SQL Server 2005 the same mapping is in place but the developers cannot view the Management Activity monitor. Developers are NOT granted the sysadmin role, and should not have that role.
What permissions need to be set for SQL Server 2005 to allow users to view the Management Activity monitor? They should not be allowed to take actions on the activities.
We have development and user acceptance (UA) servers. When I start a job on the development server, on the management studio, Start Jobs window and Job activity windows indicate "Executing" until the end of the job and finish with "success" or "failure"
But on the UA server, second after I start a job, Start Jobs window comes up with "success" or failure" and Job activity monitor says "idle" but Job continues to log without any error message and updates the tables. So these two windows are not reliable at all. I have to add that I have only job operator rights on the UA server.
I use following trigger to stop user "smith" if he try to connect through SSMS to My Server:
create TRIGGER [trg_connection_MyServer] ON ALL SERVER WITH EXECUTE AS 'Smith' FOR LOGON AS BEGIN IF ORIGINAL_LOGIN()= 'Smith' begin if exists (SELECT 1 FROM sys.dm_exec_sessions WHERE (program_name like 'Microsoft SQL Server%' and original_login_name = 'Smith') ) ROLLBACK; end
I want to log this information or send emal incase, this user try to connect through SSMS, so that I can catch it. How can I do this, if I use insert command it rollsback everything and I can't do any activity.
We upgraded QA and production to sql server 2012 last year ( in place) leaving the user databases at sql 2005 ( 90 ). A few months ago the QA user databases were set to sql 2012 compatibility mode. Management is worried about upgrading production and wants to know if we can quickly roll back.
I want to confirm that we can roll back using the same command, and if dbcc freeproccache can be used to avoid having to update all statistics.
ALTER DATABASE <mydatabase> SET COMPATIBILITY_LEVEL = 110
ALTER DATABASE <mydatabase> SET COMPATIBILITY_LEVEL = 90
This works fine in QA on my own test user database. No errors.
begin try declare @param2 int begin transaction exec proc2 @param2 commit transaction end try begin catch if @@trancount > 0 rollback transaction end catch
i haven't had an opportunity to do this before. I have nested stored proc and both inserts values into different tables. To maintain atomicity i want to be able to rollback everything if an error occurs in the inner or outer stored procedure.
Currently there are various teams accessing the database. For costing reasons, we need to track usage.Is there an efficient way to monitor User access to the database.Can we track which user has executed which query(SELECT,insert etc),the login time and such parammeters?
I Want to monitor Replication count of object (Table )if it is not equal to Publication (Table ) and subscriber (Table ), It have to send mail with count difference.
We have some Deadlock alerts set up in SQL Agent that email us when the performance counter for deadlocks goes above zero. I've used the following script to identify the event file which has deadlock information in there.
select CAST(target_data as xml) as TargetData from sys.dm_xe_session_targets st join sys.dm_xe_sessions s on s.address = st.event_session_address where name = 'system_health'
Now that is fine, and we're looking into that (number of deadlocks appear to be 0.5) but out of interest ran a SQL Profiler session to capture the details as well and nothing is showing, I've received a few alerts and the trace file has information in there - but profiler shows absolutely nothing (all deadlock events are captured)
In the past, I've combined server side traces with Perfmon successfully, which is pretty useful, I know that. I would like to do the same with Extended Events, so I can correlate and analyze the server side as well.
At one of our client side a wired log shipping issues has come up.while monitoring those two server i noticed that although log-shipping report says both server are in sync, report displays information related to both backup and restore , it doesn't shows information related to copy that is when was last file copied and last file copy column is showed blank. Same is when i execute proc "sp_help_log_shipping_monitor" . I get same result ...
When i expand copy job history to analyse its what i found is although job has executed successfully , but in depth reading each steps says that no .trn file was copied .
My copy directory is at secondary server itself where .trn files are placed.And from this location itself files are begin restored.
SQL server and agent on both servers are run by same domain account ....
I installed SQL Server 2012 on a windows server 2012 that had an existing 2008 R2 SQL installation.
After the install I can see only the 32 bit network configuration options in SQL Server Configuration Manager for both versions. Before the install they were available in the 2008 R2 version of the tool.
Based on the description below on average how many hours a month would it take to monitor and maintain the MSSQL Server databases?
Description of IT infrastructure.All Windows Servers and MSSQL Servers are up to date on patches and best practices.
Corporate site with 3 remote sites.
All remote sites have one DC and one MSSQL Server.
The corporate site has one MSSQL Server.
Replication is performed between the remote MSSQL databases and the corporate office MSSQL database.
There is no in-house DBA. All DBA services will have to be outsourced. I am trying to determine what is reasonable in budgeting for time involved for this service.
There is one project written in MS Access using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) with the backend residing on these database.
The question is on average approximately how many hours a month would it take to monitor and maintain the health of the MSSQL Servers database by a MSSQL DBA. The DBA will not have to create any user reporting, queries, etc. Just maintain the existing MSSQL Servers database.
