How to configure alert when SQL Server Agent Job gets disabled. I want to get notified when Agent Job gets disabled.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi There
I have a publisher, remote distributor and subscriber all running SS2000.
Under replication monitor on the distributor, under replication alerts i have enabled the "replication agent failure" alert.
All i need to know is should this alert trigger if the distribution agent that runs on the subscriber not the distributor fails?
I have add occurences of the distribution agent failing and the alert is not triggerred, is this because it only triggers for the agents that run on the distributor, ie: snapshot and log reader agents?
Thanx
how i can setup an e-mail alert for a specific agent job, such that it sends an e-mail report when the run duration exceeds 30 minutes.
The agent job in question kicks off our ETL, and it runs every hour. It's happened before where a job running elsewhere(Not best practice, but we run reports from our datawarehouse) creates a deadlock on 1 of the tables being updated in the ETL, but i only get notified when i get calls from end users saying their reports aren't returning results.
I was thinking of creating a new job that query either the sysjobhistory or sysjobactivty table in msdb, but i would need it to refer to the run duration value of the job as it's still running( I think i can assume it's not updating that value every second...)
Can you use the below query to get CPU high utilisation alert purposes for both named and default instance? or, do I need to make any changes here (@wmi_namespace=N'.ROOTCIMV2' ) ?
USE [msdb]
GO
EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_add_alert @name=N'CPU_WM_Utilization_Check',
@message_id=0,
@severity=0,
[code]....
when I run a package from a command window using dtexec, the job immediately says success.
DTExec: The package execution returned DTSER_SUCCESS (0).
Started: 3:37:41 PM
Finished: 3:37:43 PM
Elapsed: 2.719 seconds
However the Job is still in th agent and the status is executing. The implications of this are not good. Is this how the sql server agent job task is supposed to work by design.
Thanks,

Hi All,
I would appreciate any help here at all. I am pulling my hair out!
I am unable to start the snapshot agent or log reader agent from within SQL management studio. it fails on executing step 2 with unknown username or bad password.
I have checked all account details and they are correctly using my domain admin account. I can connect to SQL using teh same account and it also has sysadmin permissions.
If i copy the step 2 paramters and start from the cmd prompt (again logged in using the same domain account) they both start fine.
Any ideas would be gratefully received.
I am testing peer to peer replication in our environment. I simulated a three node peer to peer topology and a local distributor.
For some wierd reason I cannot get the Log Reader Agent and snapshot agent to start. The domain account under which SQL Server Agent runs has administrator previlage on the box. I also use a domain account for SQL Server Service. (none of the passwords changed).
This is the error I am getting - "Executed as user: abc. A required privilege is not held by the client. The step failed"
Any ideas???
Also this domain account is a member of
SQLServer2005MSSQLUsers$ServerName$MSSQLSERVER
SQLServer2005MSAgentUser$ServerName$MSSQLSERVER
We just moved source server to newer, bigger box ... Windows 2003 and Active Directory ... Snapshot agent worked but distribution failed ... Same login as on older machine, login is sysadm, used DCOMCNFG to allow ability to launch process ... What are we missing?

Is any has the same problem ?
Folks, i want an alert to be displayed by SQL when the processor shoots above 80% constantly for 30 seconds. Is there any perfomance counter alert sepcifically for this purpose?
Howdy!
Hi there
I've created the new alert by going to use the following stored procedure:
EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_add_alert @name=N'Severity
19 Error',
@message_id=0,
@severity=19,
@enabled=1,
@delay_between_responses=180,
@include_event_description_in=7,
@category_name=N'[Uncategorized]',
@job_id=N'00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000'
GO
But the result has a strange characters between 'Severity' and '19 Error' in sysalerts column. So I can't even drop this by using sp_delete_alert.
My question is how to access and modify the sysalerts system table cause I don't think you can access system table anymore?
BTW ... I am using the 90.00.3042 (Sp2).
Thanks

What would be the best approach? any examples?Thanks
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have set up an alert to detect when Page Deadlocks rise above 0. Overnight I have DTS packages populating SQL Server and various other jobs (Cognos Cube Builds etc.). My alert detected a Deadlock during the night but all of my processes completed fine. My problem/misunderstanding is that my alert is still popping up every 5 mins saying there is a Deadlock yet there is nothing running or no-one accessing SQL server and I cannot see any trace of the Deadlock in the Current Activity. Is this normal or is it a bug?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have two questions:
1) how can I get an alert (via paging or email) when the SQL server is down ?
2) how can I get an alert ( via paging or email) when the SQL Agent goes
down?
I'm a novice SQL Server DBA.
thanks!
Currently, my client is allowing all the developers to log in as sa and most servers have a NULL sa password. Not a good idea. I am recommending them to move to integrated security with NT groups and to move away from using the sa login altogether. Then to secure the sa login, actually give it a password (something cryptic). I also wanted to set up an alert whenever someone logs in using the sa password. How can that be accomplished? A trigger on the sysprocesses table would work but seems a little risky.

I've created an alert that is raised when the Percent Log Used rises above 80%. The response to this alert starts a job that performs a log backup.
Sometimes the database server is pretty loaded and the log backup takes some minutes and the alert is raised 3 (or more) times before the log backup ends. In response to this alert, plus 3 backups are performed.
Is it possible to make the alert sleep while the log backup is running, to avoid those extra backups?
I thought about disabling the alert in the first step (and re enabling it as the last step) but if the job fails the alert wouldn't be enabled... Right?
Thanks!

I am trying to setup an alert when the following message occurs:
Stored function 'isxpf_execsql' in the library 'c:issrvinisxpf.dll' generated an access violation.

The Alert is defined as:

This has occured sinde the alert was setup and the history of the alert says it has occured 0 times.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi all,
I have encountered the following message while checking the Event Viewer of Administrative Tools (Common) :
SQL Executive Alert Engine
The data portion of event 19020 from MSSQL Server is invalid.
Is this serious or can I ignore it?
Anyone know what steps I should take?
Any advice will be much appreciated.
I am setting up alerts on a new installation of SQL 2000 (on windows 2000 op-sys). I have set up the operator for email and paging. When I test the email and paging notification at the operator level, it works fine. I have set up an alert for a user defined message to page and email the operator if the error is raised. The error writes successfully to the SQL Server log however, the page and email do not work. I have similar alerts set up on several SQL 7.0 installations. What am I missing? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi all,
We have encountered a major SQLServer 2000 bug. I would like to find out whether anyone has seen this or whether there are work around. We are using SQLServer 2000 Standard Edition running on Windows 2000 Server.
Here is the problem. We have a main SP that calls several long SPs (1000+ lines in each SP) to migrate data from one SQL2000 server to another SQL2000 server. (Both database servers are within the same PC.) The bug occurs in the main SP. It skips a specific SQL statement (which is a call to a SP). There is nothing unique about this SQL statement because the same statement in other parts of the same SP works. This bug occurs consistently. We were able to trace it by putting PRINT statements around this SQL statement and inside the calling SP. We also tried to trace it using the Query Analyzer's Debug with a strange behavior. It seems like the Debugger has a line shifted in it's memory (lines are displayed fine.) This shift occurs a few statements before the Problematic Line. We observe this by trying to put a break point on a valid SQL statement. But the red dot actually shows on a comment line right after the intended line. It does not Step Into the Problematic Line (which is a call to a SP). Note that when we run small SPs, this behavior
does not show up. Everything works fine for small SPs.
Any help is appreciated.

I am working with alerts and trying to see if there is a way that I can control the message on the notification. I have the job set to send an email and a net message when the job succeeds. Since this message will be going to the user, I owuld like to be able to make the message as clear as possible for them. Does anyone know if the message being sent can be modified or altered with an alert? And how?
Thanks!!

Hi guys,
Hope you are all well.
I am trying to set up a 'SQL Server event alert' that will 'net send' a warning message to one of the Operators that have been set-up on our SQL Server.
The alert has been configured to act on severity level '009 - User Defined', for all databases.
I have created a user defined system message with a severity level '9' on the sysmessages table.
EXEC sp_addmessage 80000, 9, 'My User Defined Message'
...and I have raised this error on our SQL Server.
RAISERROR(80000, 9, 1) WITH LOG
The error message is being generated in the SQL Server Log file, but for some reason my Alert does not appear to fire off the 'net send' event.
The operator is 'available to receive notifications', and I have tested the 'net send' command successfully.
Does anyone know why this Alert might not be sending a message with the 'net send' command?
Thanks in advance,
Kevin
Hi folks! I have an alert that fires on error 208(Invalid object name '%.*ls'.)
Can i customize it to get some thing like in the Net-Send command:
(invalid object name '%.*ls'. executed by %user from %computername)
What my concern here is to customize the messages. The description option in the alert allows only static info to be added.
Howdy!
Hi,
does anyone know if it is possible to set an alert like that ?

I want to monitor updates on a certain table using an alert. When the table gets updated (any update), the alert will trigger a job.
Btw, I'm not allowed to add a trigger on the table, hence my idea to use an alert. Somehow I think I should use a WMI event alert, but I'm not sure which server event I should choose. In fact I'm not even sure I shóuld use a WMI event alert.
I'm a newby and I have a quick question. I have set up this procedureto run as a job. I can create a block and have it populate the table,but I need to be alerted via email when the table is being populated. Ido not know what step/s am I missing. Here is the scripts I ran:CREATE TABLE BlockMonitorInfo(spid smallint,blocked smallint,waittype binary,InfoTime datetime)go/*********creates a control table that lets you turn the backgroundprocess on and off**********/CREATE TABLE BlockMonitorControl(BlockMonitorOn tinyint)go/**********populates the control table and initially turns on thebackground process******/INSERT INTO BlockMonitorControlVALUES (1)go/*StartBlockMonitor accepts one datetime paramter that controls thesampling delay for capturing blocking information*/drop PROC StartBlockMonitorgoCREATE PROC StartBlockMonitor@DelayTime char(9)ASDECLARE @CurrentInfoTime datetime-- Set the control flag in BlockMonitorControl = Onupdate BlockMonitorControl set BlockMonitorOn = 1-- Capture blocking lock info until the control flag is set = false-- We set it off by running StopBlockMonitor which we'll create soon.WHILE (SELECT BlockMonitorOn from BlockMonitorControl) = 1BEGINSELECT @CurrentInfoTime = getdate()INSERT INTO BlockMonitorInfo (spid, blocked, waittype, InfoTime )SELECTspid, blocked, waittype, @CurrentInfoTimeFROMmaster..sysprocesses (nolock)WHEREblocked <> 0WAITFOR delay @DelayTimeENDgo/*StopBlockMonitor turns off the capture of blocking info by setting thecontrol flag in BlockMonitorControl = off*/DROP PROC StopBlockMonitorgoCREATE PROC StopBlockMonitorASUPDATE BlockMonitorControl SET BlockMonitorOn = 0goSELECTBlockMonitorInfo.*FROMBlockMonitorInfo,(SELECT distinct InfoTime FROM BlockMonitorInfo)BlockChainTimeWHEREBlockMonitorInfo.InfoTime =BlockChainTime.InfoTimeand Blocked not in(SELECT spidFROM BlockMonitorInfoWHERE InfoTime =BlockChainTime.InfoTime)This last query is what I have set up in a job, but I need the job toalert us when the table gets new information added.Thank you for the assistance!
