SSIS Performance Counters
Dec 28, 2007
We have SSIS installed and everything is working great. We are now to the point of wanting to tune one of our longer running packages and the Performance counters are not working. At all. They show up ok but the counter is always at 0. Is there anything special I have to do to get this to work.
One comment I fould was that the Performance Logs and Alerts service needs to be running to see these counters. I tried to start it and it immediately quit. I set it to automatic startup up and run a package. The counter still read 0.
Is there anything else out there I can try to get these counters to return somthing. Thanks.

On 32 bit SSIS installations, both of the following performance counter objects are visible in perfmon.
SQLServer:SSIS Service
SQLServer:SSIS Pipeline
On 64 bit SSIS installations, only the following is available.
SQLServer:SSIS Service
The SQlServer:SSIS Pipeline counters are nowhere to be found.
Should I re-install? Is this a known issue with 64 bit SSIS?
P.S. Remote or local access administrative access with perfmon makes no difference, the "SQLServer:SSIS Pipeline" performance counters don't appear in the listbox when connecting to Windows 2003 x64 server.

I am running MSSQL v7.0 with Service Pack 2. I just realized that I have no sql server performance counters on this machine. Does anyone know how to install these performance counters without reinstalling the SQL Server software?

In the Performance object drop down list of Perfmon.
I don't see the below counter
SQLServer:AccessMethods
SQLServer:BufferManager
SQLServer:Databases
SQLServer:GeneralStatistics
SQLServer:Latches
SQLServer:Locks
SQLServer:MemeoryManager
SQLServer:SQLStatistics.
How to enable these?
Thx

Any suggestions on getting them back? Reinstalling SQL didn't do anything. And yes, I am server administrator.
Thanks!

Hi all,
I have sql 2000 enterprise. From performance monitor, the sql counters are missing. During installation I've made sure that the sqlcounters are installed. The sqlctr80.dll is installed. But still the counters are not showing.
Has anybody come across this, not sure what to do next

I have a 32-bit application which sometimes runs against 64-bit servers. When it does, I can't read the performance counters published by the FTS service because they're 64-bit only. I get event #1022 from PerfLib in the event log:
Windows cannot open the 64-bit extensible counter DLL msftesqlFD in a 32-bit environment. Contact the file vendor to obtain a 32-bit version. Alternatively if you are running a 64-bit native environment, you can open the 64-bit extensible counter DLL by using the 64-bit version of Performance Monitor. To use this tool, open the Windows folder, open the System32 folder, and then start Perfmon.exe.
Does Microsoft make available 32-bit counter libraries for 32-bit clients of the 64-bit FTS? How do I obtain those bits?

The SQL server perfmon counters are missing from one of my MSSQL 7.0 servers - they do appear in others just fine.
Can anyone tell me what is wrong and/or how I can add the counters? I have seen archieve notes on this topic but can't access them for some reason (page appears blank when I click on link)
I am using perfmon to remotely monitor the problem server. My login has sysadmin permissions and is an NT admin. on both the server and the monitoring client. The login account for MSSQL server and SQL Agent services are both sysadmins.
Many thanks

Does any one know, how I can add SQLServer performance monitoring counters back on my NT server. For some reason I am missing these counters. I really do not want to reinstall either the NT OS or SQL OS if there is anyway to aviod this.

On some of my database servers, there are SQL Server counters in Performance Monitor. On other servers these are not present. How can I turn these on?
I know with the disc counters you need to explicitly enable them:
diskperf -yv
Is there a parallel for SQL Server? I don't remember doing anything to get them working on the servers that have them. All online articles seem to assume that they just exist.
TIA!

I have been collecting information about 20 performance counters (memory, IO, cpu, SQL) that refresh every 15 seconds, would that have any performance hit in the server? what are best practices when collecting information via performance counters?
Thanks

I've always assumed SQL Server performance monitor counters get automatically installed when SQL Server is installed. I recently installed SQL Server on a remote server and noticed the SQL Server performance monitor counters do not appear in Perfmon. Aren't these counters automatically installed during setup?

SQL 6.5 had counters for monitoring SQL licenses. Where did Microsoft hide them in SQL 7.0? Or did they just disappear? If they are gone, is anyone doing anything to monitor the licenses with something like perfmon? User Connections doesn't help because the application takes several and not always the same number of user connections for one license.

I want to automate the offloading of SQL Server 6.5 logs before they become full. I've set this up 'manually' by triggering a job to run when the LogSpaceUsed threshold of the SQLServerLOg counter exceeds a certain value, but what I want to do now is to automate the starting of this performance counter. Ideally what I'd like is to (1) Start the counter once SQL is up, having (2) first ensured a particular instance of the counter isn't already executing (3) have some means of detecting whether this counter ever stops running in which case we'd have to restart it. This is probably more of an NT question than anything but if anyone has experience of this please let me know....I have tried trying to get SQlServer to start the performance counter as it starts up. I used sp_makestartup to define a stored procedure which runs on startup, this uses xp_cmdshell to call a CMD file which calls the saved counter definition (a .pmw file, performance monitor workspace) I thought this should work but the counter wasn't loaded......this doesn't check whewther an existing version of the counter is already running anyway.

My Performance Counters for SQL Server 2005 are corrupted. How do I repair them ?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Salyx
Specs
Windows 2003 Standard, AMD x64.
SQL Server 2005; x64; 9.00.3042.00; SP2 Standard Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 5.2 (Build 3790: Service
Pack 2)
This is a new install, so no "upgrade from SQL 2000".
This is a production server, so "reboot" is hopefully not part of the suggested repair.
Symptom
Open Performance Monitor. Open Add Counters. Open Dropdown "Performance Object". Instead of the SQL Server Performance Counter names, a list of 4-digit numbers appears. Other Performance Counters, eg, Processor, work as normal.
Attempted repair 1 - Recovery of system performance counters
Open Command Prompt
CD WindowsSystem32
lodctr /R
This failed to restore the full set of performance counters for an unknown reason.
Attempted repair 2 - Recovery from a backup file from a second host
I used the performance counter backup file from a second host which has an identical windows install. This properly restored the system performance counters, but failed to restore the SQL Server ones. This seems odd, because both system have - as much as I can tell - the same applications installed.
Open Command Prompt
CD WindowsSystem32
REM Load backup file from second host
lodctr /R:c:PerfStringBackup.INI
Attempted repair 3 - Recover SQL Server - specific counters
Open Command Prompt
CD WindowsSystem32
REM Load backup file from second host
lodctr /R:c:PerfStringBackup.INI
REM Clear and re-load MSSQLServer counters...
unlodctr MSSQLServer
lodctr "/R:C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLBinnsqlctr.ini"
Executing this pretty much wiped most performance counters. Only a small sub-set is now available.
More Info
SQL Server 2005 and later SP2 were installed under the administrator account.
MSSQLServer service runs under its own Windows Account (permission issues ??)
I get Event Log entries regarding x86 vs x64 Performance Counter Libraries. These, however, do not refer to ASP, not SQL Server.
I have 2 (virtually) identical hosts (same install sequence of apps). The Performance Counters on the second host work fine.
Exctrlst.exe lists MSSQLSERVER service, but I don't know how to diagnose the details.

There are so many to choose from, which ones are the most important to monitor?
Also if you have your data files and trans logs set to grow automaticlly and would like to change this to a fixed number is there a way to determine how large you should set them at? Thanks in advance.

I have an Alwayson group with 2 Nodes. The SQL Performance counters are always showing on the secondary, but the primary is inconsistent.
I loaded the counters on the primary (unlodctr and lodctr ), restarted the SQL service, and confirmed that the counters were there. 2 days later the counters were gone again. I loaded them again. A week later we had maintenance, failed over to the secondary, and when we failed back to the primary - the counters were gone again….

Hello to all the members.
I have a SQl server on a Win2000 box. The server is located behind a screened subnet, and has no access to the outside world except for 1433 and 445 inbound from a webserver located in a DMZ, forward of the internal firewall. Rules are very tight, and the IIS box is patched and has been hardened further including running urlscan. (allowed verbs=get,head,post. all executable and script types disallowed, permissions very tight) I have written an appication that monitors bad http requests in real time to check that the URL scan is working, and it seems to be. The only way to get to the SQL box, would be running injection on page code (majority written by myself no raw sql) on the web server or launching an exploit over HTTP against known ADODB flaws on the web server. The SQL server is a domain member, the IIS server is a standalone. If theres a way to compromise the SQL box without first breaching both firewalls, or first compromising the IIS server, I dont know how to do it. Still, the sql box began acting up, refusing to accept a terminal services connection (the error stated that there was a failure to load Win32.sys) No sign that the machine had been compromised. I restored from a complete back up, which seemed to fix the terminal services problem, but now the sql performance counters fail to load. Specifically MQPERF.dll. Any ideas on what may have caused the server to have 'issues' (prevailing theory centers around evil spirits), and what can I do to get the performance counters to load. Tried replacing the library.
Thanks in advance,
VLG

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.

SQL Server 2014 BI

Every time machine is rebooted performance counters are missing.
select * from sys.dm_os_performance_counters returns no records. I execute "lodctr" command and get it back every time.
I would like to know the route cause of this issue, why it gets removed every time the machine is rebooted.

You can ignore this and it will complete the installation, but subsequently trying to patch with SP2 will fail on the same sections - Hotfix.exe crashes whilst attempting to patch Database Services, Integration Services and Client Components (3 separate crashes).

Hi All,
Our client is a multinational Cigar company and we have been building SSIS packages for them for extraction of data into data marts.
We tried to do all the tasks using T-SQL procedures also and tried comparing the performance of procedures and SSIS packages.
We found out that procedures are better than SSIS packages in performance(Time taken). Why is this so?
We expected the SSIS packages to be much quicker but it was not the case...
Thanks,

I have been working on a project last few months. I have developed the project on my laptop, which is resonably powerful. It runs through fine within 9 mins with sample data set.
If I replicate the same environment on a 64 Bit machine with 32 Bit Win 2003 and SP1, it takes just over 7 mins.
If I rerun it on a 64 Bit machine with 64 Bit Win 2003, it takes between 21 and 24 mins.
We are executing the packages via dtexec on a command prompt.
Has anyone seen same behaviour?
Thanks

I am currently in the process of migrating DTS packages to SSIS. I am finding that most of the packages are running faster, but some of them are taking longer to execute.
The DTS package copies data from our Production server to Development. It uses a Copy SQL Server Objects Task to copy only the data from about 50 tables. This takes about 3.5 minutes. I created the exact same package in SSIS using the Transfer SQL Server Objects Task and it is running about 5 minutes.
Another package I am having this problem with is only copying data from 1 table using a Copy SQL Server Objects Task. This package executes in 19 minutes. I have created the exact same package twice. Once using Transfer SQL Server Objects and once with a data flow task. The Transfer SQL Server Objects package takes about 50 minutes while the Data Flow package takes about 40 minutes.
As I said most of the packages are faster with SSIS so this is why I am confused on these couple where they are just copying the data.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Sam

Hi:
I've written new SSIS packages to do what DTS packages did and the
performance I'd say is about 20 times slower. In this package, I have
a loop that loops through different servers based on server entries in
a SQL database. Each loop pumps 10 tables. The source query is set by
a variable and the destination table is set also by a variable, since
all this data goes to the same tables on the SQL server and the
definitions are all the same on the source server (Sybase). It's still going and has taken about 12 hours to pull roughly 5 million records.
The source query ends up being:
SELECT *, 'ServerName' FROM SourceTable1 WHERE Date >= Date
The 'ServerName' , the "sourcetable1" and the "Date" are all set by
variables which in turn build the source query variable.
Anyway, I just mention this for completeness--I would think setting
the variables which have anything to do with the pump's performance. How can I check
to see where the performance is getting held up?
Also, I have checked via ping the timeout to the 3 servers. The slowest one pings in about 62 ms, the fastest at 1 ms, and the other somewhere in between.

Hi,
I have 4 execute packages say A, B, C, D. These packges contains packages for data transfer in turn.
Package A - 15 packages
Package B - 15 packages
Package C - 20 packages
Package D - 20 packages
When i run these packages one at a time in the order A, B, C, D then the execution time is around 17 mins.
If I make a parent package and put A, B, C, D in sequence in it, executing this parent package increases the execution time to arnd 50 mins.
Pacakge A, B, C, D doesnot run in parallel. They run one at a time. So i was wondering why the there is so much time difference.
Please let me know if theres some configuration settings to make the parent package efficient.
All the test conditions are same in both the cases. The source and the target are SQL server which are on the same machine as the SSIS.
Thanks,
Vipul
