SSIS Design Question - New To SSIS, Please Comment! :)

Feb 20, 2008

Hello everyone!!

I am completely new to SSIS and have been given a large project (of course with a tight deadline) that has the absolute requirement of using SSIS. I am/was very, very good with DTS and could easily accomplish what I need to do with an ActiveX script task in DTS in no time, but as this is new development, we are not to use ActiveX script tasks within SSIS since it will not be supported in the next SQL Server release. I'm thinking script task, but please give some comments on how you would accomplish the following in SSIS (please remember I'm new to SSIS, so don't assume I know anything. )

I must accomplish this: in a nutshell, I need to create separate tab delimited text files of customer informaion. One for each region. Each region consists of X amount of states and we have X amount of regions. (Pseudo code followed by standard explanation)

Select a max value from region lookup table in SQL (this is the # of regions)

for N=1 to MyMaxValue

select states from region lookup table where region code = N (the current region we are on)
'this returns a list of states in a region, need these in array or recordset object or something
Open an output file which will be a tab delimited text file we will write results below in loop to (in DTS I would programatically kick off a transformation task in the package)
'loop thru states returned, so if in a rs object...
do while not rs.eof

execute customer stored procedure, passing as a variable the current state we are on
'this will return all customers within a state, this whole result set (approx 1 million) needs to go to the tab delimited file
'I have to execute this stored procedure for each state & then write results to the SAME file, until we are onto a different region

rs.movenext
close file
loop
next

OK, so basically, as you can see, Its sort of simple in a way what I need to do, i just have no idea how to go about doing this in SSIS. I can not hard code any state or region values. I MUST read them in from the lookup tables as region codes are constanatly changing and we are constantly adding in new states and new regions, so with above coding idea, it would always dynamically pick up any new states, new regions or changes.

So in a nutshell, I need to create separate tab delimited text files of customer informaion. One for each region. Each region consists of X amount of states and there are X amount of regions. Pretty strait forward, huh? The requirements are strait forward, but SSIS is throwing me for a loop... it does not seem flexible enough to be as dynamic as I need it to be to do this. I'm sure it is, just my understanding of it is very basic so far.

Please provide your suggestions! I think a lot of newbies would benefit from some SSIS design info... how to do common things in SSIS, but beyond just retrieving a recordset and writing it to a file... what do you do when you need to add just a few layers of decision processing, and retriving recordsets and writing files based on that decision processing?????

THANK YOU!!!!!!

Table Design Request For Comment. (Help Please)

Jul 14, 2006

Hi there gurus, can you please add your 2 cents on this design? We'rehaving trouble relating these tables in a diagram because of the keys.Is it necesary to have the references setup? I would assume yes so theforign keys can be setup.If you look at this link, you'll see our diagram. In Red are therelationships that we would like to make for referential integrity, butcannot because of the keys.http://rullo.ca/linktome/QuestionsDB.jpgOur goal in all of this is to have a facility wherin we can store aquestion, that has multiple names over multiple Languages. Forinstance:-Q1| QNameID = 1 | "Do you have a dog in your appartment?" | LangID =1(eng)-Q1| QNameID = 2 | "Do you have a dog in your house?" | LangID =1(eng)-Q1| QNameID = 1 | "-French - Do you have a chien in your appartment?"| LangID = 2(fr)-Q1| QNameID = 2 | "-French - Do you have a chien in your house?" |LangID = 2(fr)The difficulty is when we try and put this in the group details table.We don't want to outline the Language, we'd just pass the language intoa proc to retreive a specific group with a specific language. If youfolks would be so kind as to add your comments to the design I would betruely grateful.CREATE TABLE [Question] ([QuestionID] [int] NOT NULL ,[SystemName] [varchar] (100) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOTNULL ,CONSTRAINT [PK_Question] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED([QuestionID]) ON [PRIMARY]) ON [PRIMARY]GOCREATE TABLE [QuestionAnswer] ([QuestionID] [int] NOT NULL ,[QuestionAnswerID] [int] NOT NULL ,[SystemName] [varchar] (100) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOTNULL ,CONSTRAINT [PK_QuestionAnswer] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED([QuestionID],[QuestionAnswerID]) ON [PRIMARY] ,CONSTRAINT [FK_QuestionAnswer_Question] FOREIGN KEY([QuestionID]) REFERENCES [Question] ([QuestionID])) ON [PRIMARY]GOCREATE TABLE [QuestionAnswerName] ([QuestionAnswerID] [int] NOT NULL ,[QuestionAnswerNameID] [int] NOT NULL ,[LanguageID] [int] NOT NULL ,[Name] [varchar] (100) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL ,CONSTRAINT [PK_QuestionAnswerName] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED([QuestionAnswerID],[QuestionAnswerNameID],[LanguageID]) ON [PRIMARY]) ON [PRIMARY]GOCREATE TABLE [QuestionGroup] ([QuestionGroupID] [int] NOT NULL ,[Name] [varchar] (100) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL ,CONSTRAINT [PK_QuestionGroup] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED([QuestionGroupID]) ON [PRIMARY]) ON [PRIMARY]GOCREATE TABLE [QuestionGroupDetails] ([QuestionGroupID] [int] NOT NULL ,[QuestionNameID] [int] NOT NULL ,[QuestionAnswerNameID] [int] NOT NULL ,[QuestionSortOrder] [int] NULL ,[AnswerSortOrder] [nchar] (10) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_ASNULL ,[DisplayLevel] [int] NULL ,CONSTRAINT [PK_QuestionGroupDetails] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED([QuestionGroupID],[QuestionNameID],[QuestionAnswerNameID]) ON [PRIMARY] ,CONSTRAINT [FK_QuestionGroupDetails_QuestionGroup1] FOREIGN KEY([QuestionGroupID]) REFERENCES [QuestionGroup] ([QuestionGroupID])) ON [PRIMARY]GOCREATE TABLE [QuestionNames] ([QuestionID] [int] NOT NULL ,[QuestionNameID] [int] NOT NULL ,[LanguageID] [int] NOT NULL ,[Name] [varchar] (100) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL ,[Desciption] [nchar] (10) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL ,[ControlTypeID] [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL ,CONSTRAINT [PK_QuestionNames] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED([QuestionID],[QuestionNameID],[LanguageID]) ON [PRIMARY] ,CONSTRAINT [FK_QuestionNames_Question] FOREIGN KEY([QuestionID]) REFERENCES [Question] ([QuestionID])) ON [PRIMARY]GO

SSIS Design Problem.

Jul 12, 2007

Hi,

I would like to merge data from several excel sheets and load into a SQL Server 2005 database. The excel sheet are uploaded by users from several locations and I'm storing them on a folder on the web-server. I've written the SSIS packages for the required transformations, and for loading the data onto the database. Now, my question is:

1. What is the most efficient way to trigger execution of the SSIS package each time a file is uploaded onto the server (and stored in that specific folder)?

2. Would it be possible to not statically set the "excel source" for the SSIS package data flow transformations, but instead use the folder as the source and start the SSIS package each time a file is newly transfered onto the folder? (Should I use the Script task to get a list of excel files in the folder ordered by the system time?)

I tried using the Service Agent and scheduling it to execute the package on the server. But, my current SSIS design has a static excel source filename and thus when the package is executed more than once, it fails due to DB key constraints.

Thanks!

SSIS Design Issue

Jul 11, 2007

Hi,



I need some help in designing the SSIS Package. The requirement is as follows:



I need to import data from an excel sheet to a table in the database. I have 2 lookup tables which has the master data. Before importing, I need to check whether the values of 2 columns in Excel sheet exist in those Master data tables or not. If not exist i need to log that error along with the row number and proceed to next row. It has to loop through all the rows and log the errors. The Import happens when there is no error occurred ie i need to roll back (but loop through all rows to log the errors) if there is any error occurs.



It would be great if you could help me out in desining this scenario in SSIS Package.



Thanks in advance.

SSIS Design Question - Best Pratices

Apr 9, 2007

I have an application with 4 enviornments, test, dev, qa, prod - each with dedicated databases - some on seperate servers - some on same server seperate instance, some in same instance.

Plan to develop one SSIS Project with multiple packages and use DTSConfig files to store the connection strings.

Question one:
Where to store deployed packages - in SQL (msdb) or File System

Question two:
Where to store DTSConfig files - default directory or dedicated SQL Configuration directory.

Question three:
Retain one DTSConfig file per package or merge the connection strings into one global DTSConfig file per enviornment.


I know there is no right or wrong answer to any of these questions - just looking for ideas.

My plan (as of now)
- Deploy the SSIS packages to SQL Server (stored in msdb) for each Server

- Create dedicated folder (F:SQLConfigs) to store DTSConfig files for each server

- Manually combine the each packages DTSConfig into one global DTSConfig for each enviornment. Use this DTSConfig when configuring job steps in SQL Server Agent.

Thanks for your ideas.

SSIS Package Very Slow In Design

Feb 21, 2007

Hello,

I have designed a quite small SSIS package and everything worked just fine .

Untill I moved the SSIS project folder to another solution folder and added whole solution to Visual source safe.

Since then opening the package for design has become unbelievably slow, debugging it even worse.

I think the cause is in moving the SSIS project folder. But I have no idea how to fix this.

Any suggestions ?

SSIS Package Design Question

May 15, 2008

Hi

I am busy designing a ETL solution and have a question about how to design the packages.

We have over 30 source systems for different customers. We are building a WH that will combine all this data for analysis. The main issue is that these systems are always at different versions of the software. When a patch is released, it usually goes to one or two for a Beta process before it moves to the rest. These patches can affect the DB design, and we would want to be able to extract any new data as it comes available from the systems that have it.

Solution 1 - Package Versions
The idea was to create the SSIS packages with a version number in their name. For each change, you would create a new version. The Batch control application that is being developed will store which system needs to use which version of the package.

Solution 2 - Multiple paths within a package
This was to create a single package for each table, with a conditional split as the first task. The batch system will still provide which path the package needs to take with different Data Flow tasks containing the different column mappings.

Both have pros and cons, but was wondering if anyone has experience with this type of setup and which way worked best, or if there are any other options.
Many Thanks
Michael

SSIS Package Design - Ideas

Nov 28, 2006

Greetings SSIS friends,

I am in the process of designing a package for populating a Dimension table for my new data warehouse. I would like to discuss with you my proposed solution in the hope that some of you will be able to advise me on any mistakes that I have made so far.

I have 3 source tables which are used to populate my Dimension table (I will restrict each source table to a few columns to keep this simple).

The source tables are :

Meetings (MeetID, NameID, Meeting_Start_Date, Meeting_End_Date, Meeting_Time_Stamp)

Events (EventID, MeetID, Event_Start_Date, Event_End_Date, Event_Time_Stamp)

Names (NameID, Long_Name, Short_Name, Names_Time_Stamp)

My Dimension table structure is very basic as follows :

Product_DIM (EventID, MeetID, Meeting_Long_Name, Event_Long_Name..... Meeting_Time_Stamp, Event_Time_Stamp)

Please note that I haven't included the start and end dates to keep this simple, but in my real solution, the Dimension table has many more columns.

The Meetings and Events tables contains hundreds of thousands of records so when my package is run, I should only retrieve information that has changed since the last time my Dimension table was populated. This is why I store the time stamps in my Dimension table.

So when my package runs, I get max(Meeting_Time_Stamp) and max(Event_Time_Stamp) from my Dimension table then retrieve all records from the source table where their timestamps are GREATER than the max values.

The problem is this :

If in the source system, an event is changed, the time stamp associated with that record will change value but the meeting record associated with that meeting will not have its time stamp changed.

How do I ensure that when my package is run, I retrieve all meeting and events information even if one hasn't changed?

 

Should I build a table made of IDs?! And if I do need to build a table made up of IDs, should I store this as a permanent table in my database or is there an SSIS data structure I can use to hold this information?

I hope this makes sense!

SSIS Package Design Question

Oct 20, 2006

We are downloading 4 large (500mb) zip files in the package. Those come from 4 different FTP sites. Sometimes the FTP download on one of those fails.

Zip files contain images which need to be uploaded for existing listings. Each zip file is processed the exact same way. The question is how can I make the SSIS package so that each downloaded zip file can be processed immediately after the download - and not duplicating the processing logic?

SSIS Layout/Design Basics

Nov 29, 2007



I have 3 'separate' but related processes that I am developing in SSIS. Each process shares a few global variables and connection objects. None of the processes depend on inputs or outputs from the other processes. However, there is a sequence order in which they are exectuted.

Should I develop these three process in the same package or 3 separate packages in the same solution?

From the point of view of sharing the same variables and connection objects, maybe just one package? If so, would it be advise to use the toolkit's 'Sequence Container' to ensure the order in which the 3 processes are run? I noticed that 'global variables' are limited to the scope of individual packages so it would appear that a variable can't be shared between packages in the same solution? I was also thinking that in terms of configuration settings, there might be an advantage of keeping everything in the same package. The only disadvantage I can think of in relation to keeping everything in the same package is that the design layout might look a bit cluttered.

I'm tending to think one package here but would welcome comments and suggestions from those that have experience of similar design scenerios.

Thanks,
Clive

Ssis Runtime Vs Design Time How To Tell?

Nov 15, 2006

It appears that some of the methods in a custom source data flow component are called (repeatedly) at both design time and run time?

Is there a way to determine that "I'm in runtime" vs "I'm in design time"?

Best Practice For SSIS Package Design.

Apr 2, 2008

Hello,

I am new to SSIS. I need to transfer data from SQL Server 2005 Operational Database to SQL Server 2005 Report Database. The upload needs to work every night. There are few master tables and remaining are transactions tables.

I am planning to create 2 packages one for master tables and other for transactions tables.
Is it the good approach?

Also few of transaction tables are heavy in terms of number of records. Will it better if i further break them in many packages?


I am using book "Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Integration Services Step by Step".
Can you suggest any other good book?

Regards,
Shailendra Shelar

Integration Services :: How To Design SSIS Package

Nov 21, 2015

Win 7 SP1 x64 PC. I installed SQL Server 2014 Dev Edition + Visual Studio 2015.

I'd like to create some basic ETL SSIS packages, and I worked very comfortably in 2008R2.

For 2014, I started with this tutorial:[URL]However, it says to go to Start->All Programs->Microsoft SQL Server->SQL Server Data Tools. 

I did explicitly install SSDT when I installed VS2015.  I also installed it separately.  I see SSDT listed in Programs, and SSIS is running according to SQL Server Config Manager, and Services.  Half of Microsoft's docs seem to be 2012 era, which is a shame because 2014 is out and it's nearly 2016...

how do I get to the GUI where I can design ETL packages?

How Can I View The Design Of The Ssis Package After Migration

Jun 8, 2007

OK, I was able to successfully migrate all of my DTS packages to SSIS, for SQL 2005. I can log into intergration services and see my packages listed under:

servername --> stored packages --> msdb. Now my question is, how can I open these packages, not run them open them in a design mode like you can in SQL 2000, you can double click on the package name and view the design of the package. how can i do that now that I have them in SQL 2005?

Convert Data Type In SSIS Design Time

Oct 2, 2007

Hi, all experts,


Is there a way in SSIS dev environment that will let you convert/cast data type at desing time?


Under data flow mappings, there are so many things you can do, but why I did not find any easy way to convert?


I got this validation warning about not supportng converting type DT_STR to DT_I4, or something like that on many occassions..

I am using OLEDB Source as source and SQL Server Destination as destination.

Am I missing something obvious?


Thanks!

SSIS Task Or Design Considerations For Copying/updating/replicating Tables From One Server To Another

Dec 13, 2007




I need to copy all the data from all the tables in a database to a copy of this database on another server.
What feature of SSIS should I take advantage of to accomplish this?

We have an SLA for 8am, most times the data warehousing jobs complete at 8:05am. Adding an additional process/set of tasks to this package would obviously make matters so I'm trying to update/copy/replicate the data in the fastest manner. Typically we're talking 2 marts (10-20GB) with 2 large tables (5-10 mill records) and 20 marts (0.5 - 5 GB) with many more smaller tables (~40 tables with record count ranging from 1 to a million)

Additionally please indicate if the design/feature you suggest can handle (pushing schema changes and additions to the target server) schema changes or new tablesviews added to the source database.

My only idea so far...is using the import wizard (in Management Studio) to create an SSIS package (top copy all the tables from one server to another) and saving it to the server, Then executing this package after the job is complete. However this would not work if the schema of a table changed, or if a a table is added. Moreover I don't think I can edit this package in visual studio.

Ssis Package Design To Load Only Rows Which Are Changed From Exisiting Rows.

Aug 17, 2007

Hi i tried designing a SSIS package which loads only those rows which were different from existing rows in the table , i need to timestamp the existing row with an inactive date when a update of that row is inserted (ex: same studentID )
and the newly inserted row with a insert time stamp
so as to indicate the new row as currently active, in short i need to maintain history and current rows in same table , i tried using slowly changing dimension but could not figure out, anyone experience or knowledge regarding the Data loads please respond.

example of Data would be like

exisiting data

StudentID Name AGE Sex ADDRESS INSERTTIME UPDATETIME
12 DDS 14 M XYZ ST 2/4/06 NULL
14 hgS 17 M ABC ST 3/4/07 NULL


New row to insert would be

12 DDS 15 M DFG ST 4/5/07

the data should reflect

StudentID Name AGE Sex ADDRESS INSERTTIME UPDATETIME
12 DDS 14 M XYZ ST 2/4/06 4/5/07

12 DDS 15 M DFG ST 4/5/07 NULL

14 hgS 17 M ABC ST 3/4/07 NULL

Please provide your input as much as you can even though it might not be a 100% solution.

Integration Services :: Executing Child SSIS Package In Parent SSIS

Oct 9, 2015

I want to achieve the following in (SSIS/SSDT for SQL 2012) - 

I have a generic SSIS package which simply sends out email notifications using SMTP email task (this package is within its own project, and has project level input parameters).

I need to be able to call this package in the Event handler section of every package (numbering in about less than 60) that we have. These packages are within their own respective projects.

I thought I could use the "execute package task", but it turns out , using this, I cannot call a package that is part of some other project. I also cannot call a package that is stored in the CATALOG. Is there any way I can do this ?

When I call the child package , I should be able to send in parameters like - error information and package name of the Parent package.

SSIS Called From Agent Job Not Calling New Child SSIS Package Addition

Oct 29, 2007

I have an SSIS package (TransAgentMaster) that I recently modified to include a call to a child package via the file system. The child package creates a text file. When I run the package in dev studio then the child package/text file is produced.

I then imported the TransAgentMaster as a stored packagesfilesystem package into SQL SSIS and executed the package. The child package produced the text file.

I then ran the SQL Server Agent to see if the child package would work and it did not generate the text file. Thus after updating a SSIS package importing the package into SSIS the job that calls the package will not call the child package. Please not that the TransAgentMaster package calls 7 children packages €¦ just not my new one.


Any thoughts why the agent will not run the child newly crated childe package?

Source Code For The Standard SSIS Components That Come With SSIS?

Jun 2, 2006

Hi,

I'm finding that the standard components often just don't quite meet my
needs, but would only need some fairly minor changes to save me and my team a lot of
work (and produce more elegant solutions). So I was just wondering whether the source code was available for the standard components that come with SSIS, or if there is anyway to extend their functionality?
Or do you just have to start form scratch?

Thanks,

Use Of SSIS In Reading And XSL File. Should I Use SSIS Or Just Straight C#

Aug 1, 2007

I need to build an asp.net/C# application to read values from an Excel spreadsheet. Once the values are read from the spreadsheet, the C# code will do some elementary statistics on the values read. Then the values read and their computations will be written to a sql server database.
My manager suggested that SSIS might be a good candidate technology for doing this type of work. Does that sound correct? My only hesitation with using SSIS is that I want to keep the application as simple as possible, so that the code can be more portable. Maybe might argument is not a good one, but maybe someone can help me out here.

SSIS - Get ServerName From A XML Or TXT File Into SSIS Package

Jan 4, 2008

Dear Friends,
I store several configurations in the main database of my SSIS packages. I need to get the servername from a xml or txt file in order to get those configurations stored in my database.
How you think is the better way to do that?
Using a FlatFileSource to read the file and a script to save the value into a SSIS variable?
Using the package configuration I cant do that... maybe I dont know, but I can save the SSIS variale in the configuration file, but what I need is to do the inverse, read the configuration file and save the value in the SSIS variable.
How the best way you suggest?!
Regards!!
Thanks.

SSIS Newbie - Separating SSIS && DB Engine

Oct 10, 2007

Hi Gurus,

I am new to SSIS. I am trying to install just the SSIS in one machine("SSIS Machine") and just the DB Engine ("SQL Server Machine") in another machine. What I am trying to do is, separating the SSIS service and packages from the Database Engine and trying to run in in another machine. I have few questions on this topic. I searched on this forum but I couldn't find a concrete answer to those questions. Forgive me if it already answered/asked multiple times.

1. When I install SSIS in "SSIS Machine", do I need to install client components also in the same machine?
2. I already established this setup (SSIS with client components in one machine and SQL Server in another) but when I tried to connect to the SSIS thro' Management Studio from Sql Server machine, I keep getting "Access Denied" error. Is it possible to connect to SSIS server from another machine (using Management studio)? I tried the DCOM security permission options I found in the internet(I don't have domain id so I gave "Everyone" full access) but still I get the same error. Any help would be appriciated.
3. Do I need 2 SQL Server Licenses (Enterprise) if I go with this environment?
4. Is it possible to configure SQL Job to run SSIS installed in another machine?

I would appriciate any help on this issue.

Thanks

Loading SSIS In ActiveXscript Within SSIS

Apr 9, 2008

I am trying to load a dtsx file in the SSIS package ActiveXscript.
But i am getting the following error

Error retreiving the filename for a component failed

In DTS the syntax was
LoadFromStorageFile(UNCFile,Password,[PackageID],[VersionID],[Name],[pVarPersistStgOfHost])

and for SSIS Sql Server 2005 its :
app.LoadPackage("C:ProjectsTestPackage.dtsx", Nothing)

some how its not working for me.Is it because of me using ActiveX scipt
Please help
