Hello experts. I have been searching for anything about this but found very little. What are the events logged in SQL Server Error Logs aside from Successful/Failed Login, Backup/Restore/Recover database and, start/init sql server? Can we configure this to log other events, like CREATE or DBCC events for example? If so, how? Thanks a lot.

How is everyone using the logging features of SSIS? What events are relevant to day-to-day operation? Currently we are logging all events except for Diagnostic to a SQL table, and then using event log reporting. What would be the appropriate events used for a production environment?
I enabled Windows Events for OnError, OnTaskFailed, OnWarning for my package and subelements. However, even if no errors occur, I still get Informational Events generated even though those are disabled for all modules and packages.
Any way to disable Information Events? Is this an SSIS defect, or just an oddity of how it implements Windows Events?
Windows Event:
Source: SQLISPackage
Type: Information
Event ID: 12288
Description: Package "XXXXXX" started.
Event ID: 122289
Description: Package "XXXXXX" finished successfully.
Does anyone know how to hook up to data flow pipeline events via custom solution (C#)? I am trying to write code to log start and end times of components(lookup,merge joins etc) in a data flow task. I tried with a class inheriting from the EventsProvider class but it didn't work as this is only for container tasks. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to disable the following, SQLISPackage start/finish events sent to windows event logs everytime a SSIS package is executed and completed.

I would like to AUTOMATICALLY count the event for the month BEFORE today
and
count the events remaining in the month (including those for today).
I can count the events remaining in the month manually with this query (today being March 20):
SELECT Count(EventID) AS [Left for Month],
FROM RECalendar
WHERE
(EventTimeBegin >= DATEADD(DAY, 1, (CONVERT(char(10), GETDATE(), 101)))
AND EventTimeBegin < DATEADD(DAY, 12, (CONVERT(char(10), GETDATE(), 101))))
Could anyone provide me with the correct syntax to count the events for the current month before today
and
to count the events remaining in the month, including today.
Thank you for your assistance in advance.

I am not sure if I have posted something about this, but I can't believe there is not a single person out there that is using a procedure written in SQL in order to schedule sending of an email, if data hasn't been submitted.
I have had some hits and some help from some people but I am pretty much still stuck.
How is everybody else doing these sorts of thing,scheduling an email to be sent to a user if he/she hasn't submitted data,somebody must be doing it?
A sample, help ,anything???

i have my SQL server 2005 crashing when Events log is full
I have a hacker attacking my DB with a brut force tool but whereas he does not have the password, event log registers his access attempts as Failure Audit.
I have thousands of lines of "Failure Audit" in my event log
The event logs are set to be overwritten automatically when they reach 16Mb but it's not working correctly, they r not overwriting their content.
in SQL 2005 ERRORLOG file i see:
2007-05-14 01:57:11.57 spid80 Error: 17054, Severity: 16, State: 1.
2007-05-14 01:57:11.57 spid80 The current event was not reported to the Windows Events log. Operating system error = 1502(The event log file is full.). You may need to clear the Windows Events log if it is full.
SQL Agent cannot starts because it's not able to write in the event log that it's starting and when it cannot write in event log, it does not start and my sql server crashed
My Question is simply how to fix this issue once for all
Hello Everyone,
I am backing up my all the databases (around 50 servers and 500 database) using scheduled jobs. I backup my transaction log files at every two hours of interval and databases on daily basis.
I have set option of "Write to Windows Application Event Log" - When job fails during the creation of job in the "Notification Tab" of Create New Job.
As per documentation SQL server automatically records some of the events to windows application event log. After succesful completion of Log backup and DB backup, event gets logged in Windows Application Event Log. And when job fails, I get two events logged in the Windows Application Event Log file, one due to my setting and other automatically by SQL Server.
Due to this Windows event log file is growing much faster and I have to clear it in every 3-4 days.
My quesiton - Is there a way such that to get only failures event logged in Windows Application event log file and any successful backup jobs should not go to Windows application event file?
Can any suggest some idea what should I do?
I am using SQL Server 2000 with SP3 on Windows 2000 Advanced server. Some of my databases are still using Version 7.0/6.5 on NT.
Thanks.
I use this code in a utility procedure (for performance testing) but it is really slow.
For example, a session with three events is taking 5 seconds to complete this query:
DECLARE @xml xml=
(
SELECT CAST(xet.target_data AS xml)
FROM sys.dm_xe_session_targets AS xet
JOIN sys.dm_xe_sessions AS xe
ON (xe.address = xet.event_session_address)
WHERE xe.name = @name
);
with data as
(
select
convert(varchar(128),convert(varbinary(128),'0x'+n.value('(action[@name="context_info"]/value/text())[1]','varchar(128)'),1)) context
, n.value('(data[@name="duration"]/value/text())[1]','int')/1000.0 duration
, n.value('(data[@name="cpu_time"]/value/text())[1]','bigint')/1000.0 cpu_time
, n.value('(data[@name="physical_reads"]/value/text())[1]','bigint') physical_reads
[code].....
So, I was wondering (considering the buffer is usually only holding a few hundred events)
1. Is this the wrong way to query data from a ring buffer?
2. Is there any way to make this code quicker?
3. Is it better to target a file store rather than a ring buffer for this?
select geometry::STGeomFromWKB(0x0106000000020000000103000000010000000B0000001000000000000840000000000000003D

I am wanting to get/filter on all queries and procs that take longer than 2 seconds to run (I'll balance real values later) but I'm not sure which Action out of the XE that I need.
I am using SQL Server 2014 and thought I had used sqlserver.sql_statement_completed.duration > 2000 in a previous version.
I am trying to use xquery to get event data back from extended events. I am trying to use some sample data from Grant Fritchey but I am getting null records back. Below is the xml - I just want to retrieve a distinct list of the client_hostname and client_app_name.
<event name="login" package="sqlserver" timestamp="2014-02-19T23:53:54.299Z">
<data name="is_cached"><value>true</value></data><data name="is_dac">
<value>false</value></data><data name="database_id"><value>7</value>
</data><data name="packet_size"><value>8000</value></data><data name="options">
[Code] ....
The query I have that doesn't work is :
WITH xEvents AS
(SELECT object_name AS xEventName,
CAST (event_data AS xml) AS xEventData
FROM sys.fn_xe_file_target_read_file
('C:LoginTraceShared_0*.xel', NULL, NULL, NULL))
SELECT distinct top 1000 xEventName,
xEventData.value('(/event/data[@action_name=''Client_APP_Name'']/value)[1]','varchar') Client_APP_Name,
xEventData.value('(/event/data[@action_name=''Client_Host_Name'']/value)[1]','varchar') Client_Host_Name
FROM xEvents
I know very little about Extended Events, but I know it is supposed to be more powerful than Profiler. The SQL Instance involved is 2008R2. I was asked whether we could capture when a stored proc was called with a certain parameter. So for example, if dbo.usp_mystoredproc is called and is passed a value of '12345a' for @customer, can that be captured? I would want to know the time it was called, the parameter and parameter value. Probably would be interested in the SPID or LoginName as well.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI need to find any stored procedures that have not been used over a certain time period.
I have set up an extended events session to gather sp_statement_starting and _completed.
The trace returns the object_id's of many stored procedures. I then query the sys.procedures and plug in the object_id to return the stored proc name.
Do I have to repeat this process for every different object_id or is there a way I can query the trace results, using the object_id as my search criteria as one query ?
I am setting up extended events more or less just fine, however I am a bit confused as to how to read and load them into a table for querying. In particular the offset part - is there a way to load just a given dates worth in?
I've got the files configured to be 20MB before rolling over, the XE is running all the time.
So if i load in the full file now, say that covers 2.5 days worth, when I load it again tomorrow to get the updated data I'm also reloading today, which is a waste?
I presume I am going about this wrong, but lack an example that really goes into detail of practicalities of loading this data.
We are planning to convert or change all existing Traces to Extended Events in SQL server 2012. What is the procedure to convert custom traces. We have already created some below custom traces: like this we are planning to convert for all servers.
exec sp_trace_setevent @TraceID, 20, 23, @on
exec sp_trace_setevent @TraceID, 20, 8, @on

I have been tasked with auditing all DDL and selected DML events on a production server and logging them to a table. My solution is to use CDC for the DML and a Server-Level trigger for the DDL. Because there should never but much DDL activity on the server (except when performing update tasks) I don't need to worry about the trigger consuming too many resources.
My question is this: Is there any single specification such as DDL_LEVEL_EVENTS that can capture all DDL activity or do I need to specify each and every DDL action in the trigger?
I'd like to capture the change event when it happens and have both a record posted to a table and an email notification to the DBA.

I'd like to build an application that will react to specific changes todata in a set of tables in a database. The application would replicatethese data changes to another database. The target database won't beSQLServer. Neither is this simple replication, at times the applicationwill need to get extra data from the source database before the targetis updated.In other DBMS systems I am involved with the DBMS has the facilty towrite to an application message queue so that the monitoring applicationonly has to monitor the queue rather than a database. What I'd like todo is something like this:1. Some application changes data in a table.2. A trigger reacts to the change and writes a message to an applicationqueue.3. A windows service/process monitors the queue and picks up themessage. It then carries out whatever replication/DB actions are necessary.This would mean defining a number of new triggers on existing tables anddeveloping the windows service/process. Existing applications and theexisting tables in the database would remain unchanged. I'm not awindows programmer but I have someone in my team who is and who willbuild the windows service/process.The bit I'm unsure about is how a trigger can write to an applicationqueue or communicate with the windows service/process. I may be usingthe wrong terminology as I have more knowledge of Unix than Windows.Could anyone help with how I can do this or suggest any alternativestrategies.Thanks In Advance.Laurence

We have 164 child packages being called from a single parent package which is setup to perform logging to a SQL Server table. Anything that Errors or has Warnings is logged accordingly, however, how do you trap the PackageStart and PackageEnd events? when the child package knows nothing about logging?
My first thought was to have the Parent call the AddEvent SP with the appropriate values, but thought I may check here in case I missed something
Hi,
I'm trying to catch an error and trigger a control flow to handle it. I introduce a control flow to catch "OnError" event, but , despite muy package has some errors it doesnt work...
Another issue, if i omit an error on a transformation object ( in order let the flow continue executing), can this error be managed by an event or record it in a log?
Thanks
Hi
I would like to know how I can get hold the text for a service and event notifications.
What I need is the ability to get hold of a list of the events I'm currently monitoring.
i.e.
Server or database level
I though I would be able to get hold of this in sys.server_event_notifications but it doesn't seem to have any data although my server level event notifcation service is running.
Any help?

I know how to get the events that start say on May, and I know how to get the events that end on May, however, How would I get the events that start on January and end in July. The month of May should display that event too.
so far, as an example, I have: SELECT
Events.startDate,
Events.endDate
FROM Events
WHERE
Events.Active = 1
AND
startDate BETWEEN convert(smalldatetime, '5/1/2006') AND convert(smalldatetime, '5/31/2006')

This means thatwhen the query fails I am left with only a very unhelpful message.So what I was wondering, was whether there is a way that I can view theactual queries that are sent to SQL server as they happen, or if areal-time solution doesn't exist, then some way I can look back afterthe event and see the syntax of the queries?Ideally, what I would like to do is see the queries in the form theywere sent to the server, ie "SELECT * FROM foo WHERE bar='foobar'", asthis would help me to figure out where the generated queries are goingwrong.Cheers,--Dylan Parryhttp://electricfreedom.org | http://webpageworkshop.co.ukThe opinions stated above are not necessarily representative ofthose of my cats.

View 5 Replies View RelatedHiwe are considering porting an application from Ingres to SQL Server.Part of the application uses a feature of Ingres called databaseevents. These allow a application to monitor for an event happening inthe database, e.g. a user enters a record meeting certain conditions,the database raises an event including a record ID, and a clientapplication sees the event (without continual explicit polling), readsthe new record and starts processing it.Any idea what the equivalent functionality would be in SQL Server2000, or are applications simply not done that way?TIAChloe CrowderThe British Library
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to add functionality to a VB 6 application allowingcustomer service to add a customer number to a new customer.Customers are added to the database by sales personnel, and aprospective customer may have multiple rows due to projected ordersfor multiple products. Customer numbers are assigned when a newcustomer makes their first order.I'm using a DataGrid connected to an ADO Data Control. The datacontrol is connected to a view in SQL Server using the 'distinct'directive (I know it's not updatable) to show only one line per newcustomer. What I wish to do is capture the update event (probablythrough the FieldChangeComplete routine of the data control), manuallyassign the newly entered customer number to all appropriate rows inthe database, and cancel the update event with no notifications.I'm having two problems:1. I can't capture the newly entered customer number. The Textproperty of the DataGrid returns the old value of the cell instead ofthe newly entered value. How do I get the edited value?2. Even though I set adStatus = adStatusCancel in theFieldChangeComplete routine, I get a Microsoft DataGrid Control dialogstating 'Operation was Canceled'. How do I avoid this notification?
