SQL 2012 :: Script In SSIS To Check Data Connections / Sources
Jun 10, 2014
script in SSIS to check data connections/sources and send an email if it fails validation. I found this script online, but I'm not real good with scripting and only VB scripting at that.How can I modify this script or is there another one here that will do what I need. The data connection in question links to Salesforce and will fail validation if the password/security token is invalid.
The reason I need this script is that we have no control over the password changes and need to know if the salesforce team changes the password without informing us.

Currently, I am using T-SQL to combine some data and using an ISNULL function like this:
,ISNULL(H.Last_Name, S.PatientLastName)
,ISNULL(H.First_Name, S.PatientFirstName)
I am wanting to change from using a query to move this data to using an SSIS Data Flow. I am familiar with using Merge Join to combine the two tables (H & S in this case), but I'm not sure where I can use the ISNULL in the manner described above. Is there a way to do it in the Merge Join? Do I have to do it after the Merge Join?

I have a project where I am creating a test environment. My objective is to give the client staff a set of instructions to follow to make sure the test mirrors production. I have migrated the SRS databases over to the new test server. All of the reports are there as is the security but where I run into an issue is the data sources for SRS. They are all pointed at the production servers. Is there an easy way to make the change possibly using a SQL update statement or exporting all the reports to XML and doing a find and replace. The shared data sources I went through manually and changed but there were 40 data sources. Now I realized some of the reports have embedded data connections. There are hundreds of reports to go through.

We have an SSAS project that we want to auto deploy. I am not sure how to handle the external data sources in the project. This one in particular has a single external data source defined to Microsoft SQL Server.
I would like to be able to change the data source based on the environment. In SSIS projects I can do this by setting up environments in the SSISDB and linking them to project parameters in the SSIS project but SSAS projects don't seem to have a similar mechanism.
How to handle this? I would like to be able to have the build/deployment agent pass in server / database information to the data source based on environment (dev, QA, production).
The only way to automate this that I've discovered is to have an intermediary process that executes after the build that updates the generated .asdatabase and .configsettings files in the bin folder replacing the connection string information.

I am attempting to use the foreach loop structure in an SSIS package toloop through however many Excel files are placed in a directory andthen perform an import operation into a SQL table on each of thesefiles sequentially. The closest model for this that I was able to findin the MS tutorial used a flat file source rather than Excel. Thatinvolved adding a new expression to the Connection Manager that set theconnection string to the current filename, as provided by the foreachcomponent. That works just fine, but when I attempt to apply the samemethod to an Excel source, rather than a flat file source, I cannot getit to work. I see the following error associated with the Excel sourceon the Data Flow page: "Validation error. Data Flow Task: Excel Source[1]: The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "ExcelConnection Manager 1" failed with error code 0xC020200." I think thatit's just a matter of getting the right expression, and I thought thatperhaps I should be constructing an expression for ExcelFilePath ratherthan the Connection String, but I have fiddled with it for hours andhaven't come up with something that will be accepted. Has anybody outthere been able to do this, or can perhaps refer me to somedocumentation that contains an example of what I am trying to do?Thanks for any help you can give.

I've encountered a few problems using SSIS against non-SQL Server data
sources and was hoping that others might have some experience. Google
searches and browsing MSDN hasn't led me to a solution, so any advice
on the following is appreciated:
1) When using the "Data Source Views" wizard to add a data source
view from an ODBC data source, only tables appear in the object
listing. Views do not. (I've also observed this with SQL Server 2005
databases as well, but it's a bigger issue when you can't use the native SqlClient, as is the case for many ODBC-only databases.) ODBC traces show that both table and
view metadata is being returned to SSIS correctly, so it appears as
though SSIS is filtering out views from the object listing in the
wizard.
2) When creating named queries against (non-SQL Server) ODBC data
sources, SSIS appears to use the SQL Server SQL syntax for referencing
schemas/objects (e.g. "SELECT * FROM [schema].[table]", rather than
"SELECT * FROM schema.table"). This isn't valid SQL in many databases.
Am I missing something? Is there a way to change this through some
configuration setting?

I had posted this in the following pre-existing thread :
http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=89737&SiteID=1
Also wanted to start a thread on this to see if I can get some suggestions. Any suggestions on how to do this are appreciated.

Books-Online quote:
>> In Integration Services, data sources are design-time objects that you use when you build packages in SSIS Designer.
This is indeed the case but why? I would like to see it changed or provide some way of including the data source in some kind of a "solution/project configuration", the same way one can create a "package configuration" right now.
If one can build a project, and create a deployment utility to deploy the entire project (all packages), it is incoceivable why one shouldn't be able to set configurations at a "project" level.
Right now I am having to create package configurations to configure my connection setting for dev/test/prod etc environments. But the trouble is, if I have 10 packages each involving 3 connections in my project, I have only 3 data sources in my project, but come deployment time, I'm having to create 10 package configurations, and set my ConnectionString (which is different for dev/test/prod etc) 30 times during deployment.
If there is a better way to do it, I would like to know. Otherwise, this is what I would like to see in the next SP.

Hi:
I am new to SSIS. I would like to know if I want to transfer data from one Oracle schema to another Oracle schema and also to do scheduling of the packages, can I still use SSIS? If yes, what are the components that need to be installed on the database server and the development environment? I hope I don't need the full SQL Server database installation in order to use SSIS.
Thanks!

Hi,
I have the following scenario: N identical Databases (corresponding to different Fiscal Years, with names <Company Name>.<YEAR>). We want to consolidate the N DBs to a New Datawarehouse.
In SSIS we have designed a Dataflow that reads through a OLE DB Source (Connected to one of the N Databases) and maps to a OLE DB Destination (Connected to the NEW DB).
The question is, how we loop in SSIS through the N identical Connections, so to repeatedly execute the designed Dataflow, each time with a different Connection?
Thanks in Advance,

Hi,
I'm trying to replicate a SQL join across two seperate data sources in SSIS. If I were to write SQL to do this, it would be as follows:
SELECT Costs.CostRateEntryId,
Costs.UserId,
Costs.HourlyRate * 8 AS DailyCostRate,
Dates.DateKey,
Dates.ActualDate,
FROM Costs
INNER JOIN Dates ON Dates.ActualDate >= Costs.EffectiveDate AND Dates.ActualDate <= Costs.EndDate
Unfortunately, as the tables 'Dates' and 'Costs' are in two seperate SQL2005 systems, I can't really do this. I was hoping that it could be achieved in SSIS, but I cant seem to find any way that I can do a join that's <= or >=.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

I'm just beginning to use SSIS (bracing for a steep learning curve due to lack of helpful documentation) and am starting out trying use the Import and Export Wizard. On the "Choose a Data Source" page there is a dropdown for the Data Source. I see a list of possible data providers, but not one of "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC drivers," which is the one I wanted to use because I'm trying to connect to an obscure database. So I figured that I need to use ".Net Framework Data Provider for Odbc." Unfortunately, regardless of what I enter for the Connection string or the Dsn or the Driver I invariably get an error, although it's somewhat dependent on that I have entered for those three items.
Either this (when I type in a DSN)
Cannot get the supported data types from the database connection "Dsn=Terrascan_Okanogan_WA".
or this (if I enter a full connection string and a driver)
The operation could not be completed.
------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
ERROR [IM002] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
of this (if I enter a DSN and a driver)
Cannot get the supported data types from the database connection "Dsn=Terrascan_Okanogan_WA;Driver={SmartWare Driver}".
------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Specified cast is not valid. (System.Data)
So I have a couple questions. First, why doesn't "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC drivers" appear in the list of data sources, and secondly, when using the ".Net Framework Data Provider for Odbc" data source what inputs are expected because whatever I'm doing doesn't seem to work?

Hi guys,
I manage to get the SSIS working. Now I would need to do these tasks.
I first want to get data from 2 different sql servers. What would be the best method to accomplish this? Both are in Sql Server 2005.
Secondly I want to make sure if any of the servers couldn't be found on the network or in any case the getting data task failed for any one of them the package won't continue and an email should be send to an email address.
Thirdly If everything is ok then I should combine both and generate one sequence no for them and save them on to another location and then generate a file with modified values.
Can anyone help me regarding these tasks?
Thank you

I have file name in @filename variable and file path is @filepath variable.
But do not not that how i will check the column name in before i will process that file.
@filePath = C:DatabaseSourceFilesCAHCVSSourceFiles
And I am using for each loop container to read the file one by one and put the file name in @filename variable.
and my file name like
Product_20120607060930.txt

Hello!
I'm working with SSIS and using a third party data provider to a proprietary data source. SSIS wraps the provider in an ADO wrapper and everything runs perfectly.
So what's the problem? Well, I need to use this data provider multiple times in a package, and we have limited licenses for the provider. If I run the SSIS package by itself, once again it runs perfectly. The problem arises when I attempt to run the package in a job. When I run the job it hangs, because the data provider throws a modal warning window that runs in the background, telling me that I've run out of licenses.
It would appear that when I run the SSIS package independently, it makes the calls to the data provider sequentially because those tasks are sequential. However, when I attempt to run it as a job, it attempts to grab the multiple connections to the provider at the same time, causing me to run out of licenses.
Is there a way to modify this behavior in the job, and have it call those data connections sequentially?
Thanks for your help,
ADoinel

I found it pretty interesting. I checked the size of a database, before implementing database compression across all the user tables in a database. And Post implementation of compression too I checked the size of the database.
I did not find any difference. But if I expand the table and check propetires->storage and I can see that PAGE compression is implemented across all the tables, but no compaction in the size of the db. It still remains the same.

Dear All,
the situation is that i have a column data comes from flat file and all i want to do is to check that the incoming column is numeric(12,3) and if the incoming data exceed that size "12,3" exception or redirect the row is happened.
the problem that i try to apply that with the data conversion or Derived column component but it in case of the scale of the incoming data exceed 3 the component trim until 3 scale.
i also try to perform it with the flat file data source component but i face a problem that if the data in the column is empty then flat file data source component read the numeric column as Zero
i hope someone help me coz i need to handle it soon.
best wishes

Hi All
How to check number of active connections ?
I know two ways of doing it ..
1. run sp_who2
2. in Current Activity in Enterprise Manager ..
If what ever number I am seeing is the Active Number of Connections ..then
I am facing a problem here ..
In My serevr I have 75 Users licenses are configured for Per server option ..
Through a Java aplication when Developer tried to capture any SQL server Connection it says following error ..
Details :
[MERANT][SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]Login failed. The maximum simultaneous user count of 75 licenses for this 'Standard Edition' server has been exceeded. Additional licenses should be obtained and installed or you should upgrade to a full version.
If I see from Sp_who2 and Current Activity , I can see only 37 Connections ...?
Why is so .. If I am having 75 configured and 37 live in sp_who2 ..why I am getting that error message ?
Is there other way to see Actual Number of Connections made to server ?

I have a table that has a clustered index that is only the identity column on the table. The table is somewhere around 200K rows and has 3800 pages in the index. We run our index maintenance every other day on this database using Ola's scripts and this index is rebuilt because it is 40-60% fragmented after 2 days. Overall, this isn't really too much of a problem since the index rebuild doesn't take too long, but I am puzzled as to how this index is getting fragmented since the only column in it is the identity.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Example](
[ExampleID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[ExampleCode] [varchar](10) NOT NULL,
[ForeignID] [int] NOT NULL,
[AnotherID] [int] NOT NULL,
[code]...
) ON [PRIMARY]There is nothing strange like updates to the identity happening and while some records are deleted, there has only been about 20,000 in the life of the table (months). Not enough to account for the level of fragmentation that we're seeing on the index.About the only thing I can think of that would cause fragmentation on this index in this scenario are:
1. Page splits caused by starting with a small value in one of the VARCHARs and later inserting a larger value
2. Page splits caused by the NULLABLE column, ExampleDate, starting with NULLs and later updating them to a date.
For #1, I had development check the update scenarios for the varchar columns, especially the varchar(1000) one, and they didn't see it as a common thing where the values would go from small (or empty) to large.
For #2, I checked and found that the only value for that column in the table is NULL so while it always starts as NULL, it never gets updated to anything else.
I've tried looking at sys.dm_db_index_operational_stats and the leaf_update_count is around 300,000, but unless those updates are causing page splits, I don't see how they would contribute to fragmentation.

I need to periodically import a (HUGE) table of data from an external data source (not SQL Server) into SQL Server, with the following scenarios:
Some of the records in the external data source may not exist in SQL.Some of the records in the external data source may have a different value at different imports, but this records are identified univocally by the same primary key in the external datasource and in SQL Server.Some of the records in the external data source may be the same in SQL.
Due to the massive volume of the import, I would like to import only the records which are different from what I have in SQL Server (cases 1 and 2 above). In fact case 2 is the most critical.
I thought of making a query with a left outer join between the data in the external data source table (SOURCE) and the data in the SQL Server table (DESTIN). The join is done on the respective primary keys (composed keys of up to 10 columns) and one of the WHERE conditions will be that the value in SOURCE is different from the value in DESTIN.
The result of this query would be exactly what I need to import.
How to do this in SSIS??? I couldn't figure out how to join tables in different data sources yet.
In fact I cannot write a stored procedure to do that, since one of the sources is in a datasources not SQL Server.
I have seen the Lookup transformation in this article http://www.sqlis.com/default.aspx?311 but this is not exacltly what I want to do.
Another possibility is to use the merge join, but due to the sorting I believe its performances would be terrible!
Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

Hi,
I am pretty new to SSIS. I am trying to create a package which can accept data in any of several formats. i.e. CSV, Excel, a SQL Server database/table and import the data into my destination database.
So far i've managed to get this working OK. However I am now TOTALLY stuck. I'm currently trying to just concentrate on the data sources being a CSV (using a Flat File Data Source) and/or an Excel Spreadsheet.
I can get the data in and to my destination using a UNION ALL component and mapping the data sources to it so long as both the CSV file and the Excel spreadsheet exist.
My problem is that I need my package to handle the possibility that only the CSV file might exist and there is no Excel spreadsheet. In which case i'd like the package to ignore the Excel datasource completely. Currently either of my data sources do not exist I get errors and the package terminates.
Is there any way in SSIS that I can check all my data sources to see which ones exist (i.e. are valid). If they exist I want to use them. If it doesn't exist i'd like to disgard it (without error - as long as there is a single datasource the package should run)
I've tried using the AcquireConnection method in a script task on each of my connections, hoping that it would error if the file/datasource did not exist. It doesn't though (in the case of an Excel datasource it just creates a empty excel file for me).
The only other option I can come up with are to have seperate packages depending on the type of data we want to import and then run a particular package depending on the format of the source data. This seems a bit long winded. I am pretty sure I must be able to do what I want to achieve but I can't work out how.
I'll be grateful to anyone who can send me any tips/hints/links on how I can achieve this.
Many thanks

Hi all :)
I'm wondering if SSIS will be the solution to the problem I'm working on.
Some of our customers give us an Excel sheet with data they want to insert or update in the database.
I've created a package that will take an Excel sheet, do some data conversion so the data types match up and after that I use a Slowly Changing Data component to create the insert/update commands.
This works great. If a customer adds a new row to the Excel sheet or updates an existing row changes are nicely reflected in the database.
But now I€™ve got the following problem. The column names and the order of the columns in the Excel sheet are not standard and in the future it could happen a customer doesn't even use an Excel sheet but something totally different.
Can I use SSIS for this? Is it possible to let the user set the mappings trough some sort of user interface? I€™ve looked at programmatically creating the package but I€™ve got to say that€™s quit hard to do€¦ It would be easier to write the whole thing myself than to create the package trough code ;)
If not I thought about transforming the data in code before I pass it on to the SSIS package in something like XML. That way I can use standard column names and data types.
So how should I solve this problem? Use SSIS or not?
Thnx :)

I searched and read about Data Sources and I'm seeing that there is no advantage in using it, which is what I found from playing around with it.
I expected that you would set a global connection in Data Sources and somehow link this to the things in your Connection Manager, giving you one place to switch from one environment to another. But reading the discussions here and playing around with it, this is not the case.
So, why is it there?
Next question.... another thing I gathered so far is something called "Configurations" that will do what I was describing above. Where do I do this?
