SSIS Data Flow Execution Monitoring And Logging
Aug 1, 2006
Has anyone come up/determined a generic way to capture and log indicative information within a data flow in SSIS - e.g., a number of rows selected from the source, transformed, rejected, loaded, various timestamps around these events, etc.? I am trying to avoid having to build a custom solution for each of the packages that I will have (of which there will be dozens). Ideally, I'd like to have some sort of a generic component (such as a custom transformation) that will hide the implementation details and provide a generic interface to the package.
It is not too difficult to achieve something similar on the control flow level, but once you get into data flows things get complicated.
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

Hello.
I am using the "SSIS Log Provider for SQL Server" to log events to a table for "OnError" and "OnPostExecute" events of a package. This works as expected and provides a nice clean output on the execution steps of the package.
I am curious as to why I do not see any detail for any/all tasks that fall under the "Data Flow" section of the package though. For instance, on my "Control Flow" tab, I added a "Data Flow" task that simply loads a few tables from a target to destination server. However, there is nothing shown in the logging output. Just that a Data Flow task was initiated. And when I'm configuring this logging under "SSIS-->Logging" in the checkbox area on the left, you cannot "drill into" data flow steps.
Is there a reason why there is no detailed logging for Data Flow tasks? Would getting to that require me to create a custom log provider?
Thanks for the help.

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 have a package that loads staging tables from an Oracle source DB. In the data flow tab I have 30+ read table/write table task combinations. When I run the package 3-4 of the read/write combos execute at a time. What I'm trying to control is the priority order of the combo execution. My goal is to minimize to total load time by having the larger table transfers run first and the smaller table transfers fill in until they are all complete. Currently, the largest table (16 million) transfers last (because it was the last combo that I created?).
Thanks,
Dave

Hi,
Has anyone monitored the execution of SSIS packages with MOM? Are there extreme benefits over just utilizing the built in execution and event logs, as well as the Windows Event Viewer?
What is the recommended way to monitor SSIS execution?
Thanks,

Hi
I'vo got some trouble with the built-in logging feature and a self defined logging table.
Scenario :
A have a SSIS-package with enabled built-in logging to SQL-Server Data-Provider.
At the start of the package, i have an SQL Task which logs
the System Variable system::ExecutionInstanceGUID into the self defined logging table.
But the execution_id which the built-in logging stores to sysdtslog90 isn't the same
value like the value of the system::ExecutionInstanceGUID,
so i can't link my own table with the sysdtslog90 - table.
Any Ideas what is going wrong?
Thanks and sorry about my english

Hi All,
Just needed an insight into the IF-ELSE construct w.r.t its implementation in SSIS or a similar methodology that could be adopted in SSIS while executing a Package.
Scenario : I want to Start with importing data from Different sources to SQL Server Destination. For Which, i define 3 different Data Flow Tasks each involved in importing data from an external source to SQL Server Destination.
1] Text File Inbound Task : Source - Flat File Source ; Destination - SQL Server Dest.
2] Excel Inbound Task : Source - Excel Data Source ; Destination - SQL Server Dest.
3] Xml Inbound Task : Source - XML Data Source ; Destination - SQL Server Dest
Finally i want to execute the package with an IF-ELSE Scenario which will Check for the external Source being :
IF External Source = = Excel file => Execute Excel Inbound Task
ELSE
EXIT
IF External Source = = Text File/Flat File = > Execute Text File Inbound Task
ELSE
EXIT
IF External Source = = Xml File => Execute Xml Inbound Task
ELSE
EXIT

Hello all,
Is there documentation somewhere about multiple execution paths in SSIS control flow? I didn't find documentation anywhere. I have a situation where I have two tasks that take considerable time, but could be executed in parallel (to speed up things) and I was wondering whether SSIS supports parallelism.
To illustrate the issues in simultaneous execution, I created a test SSIS package. In the package, I have five tasks, let's call them T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5. The taks are connected with "green arrows" like this:
T1->T2
T1->T3
T2->T4
T3->T4
T5 is not connected. The tasks can be e.g. Send Mail tasks, that's not relevant to this issue. I put a breakpoint in each task and execute the package.
When I execute package, T1 and T5 become active, i.e. the arrow that displays where the package execution currently is, is in two tasks simultaneously. Now F10 (step over) doesn't seem to work "Unable to step. Not implemented". If I press F5 nothing happens. After I press F5 for a second time tasks T1 and T5 and executed. Why don't they execute with the first pressing of F5? I would additionally like to know whether these two tasks are executed in parallel or sequentially, i.e. in the same thread or in two threads? Is there documentation of this?
The execution stops at T2&T3. Again, pressing F5 doesn't do anything, but the second time I press F5 T2 and T3 are executed.

Hi,
I'm building a package wherein I perform a SQL task(A) if the error log is not empty. This same SQL task(A) is also being used by another data flow task(B). The precedence points from B to A bottom to top. When I execute, all the tasks in the downward direction (precedence pointing downward/sideways) execute but this one doesnt as it points updwards. I can copy and paste task A and make B point to A downward, but I dont want to duplicate A in the same package.
Is there any other approach?
If you dont understand the above, see the flow:
X (SQL task) ----on success-------------> A (SQL task)
| ^
| |
...(sequence of steps) |
| |
| |
B(Data Flow Task) ---------failure --------|
Execution flow doesnt move from B to A, even though its a failure condition. Hope this explains the problem.
Thanks and Regards,
Subha Fernando

Hi guys,
I would like to know what happens during the different phases when executing a data flow task. I noticed that there are the validation, prepare for execute, pre-execute, execute, post-execute, and cleanup phases.
We all know that the execute phase is the actual execution of the desired data flow (source to destination) but I was wondering what the other phases do. Knowing what happens during those phases will help me optimize the whole execution. 1 question raised by someone here is "what is the difference between the Prepare for Execute phase and the Pre-Execute phase? and what does the validation phase do?
Thanks in advance for the help you can give

I have one Data flow, which trasfer data into two table (Parent & Child) .
My question is : Is there a way, i can load data first into parent and then child table. because child table getting load first after that parent table loading. (Execution should be Source Parent --> Destination Parent) First , (Source Child --> Destination Child) Second.
In my case its executing reverse. So i have foreign key constraints at child table , its giving foreign contraints error while running ssis package
Can any one tell me,
How to define my own sequence execution at the Data flow task (Source - Destination) ?
Thanks

I have a SSIS (CTP June 2005) package with several data flow tasks. One data flow has 2 OLEDB data sources which are then unioned together, followed by a conditional split, then a derived column transformation, which feeds into an OLEDB destination. When I run the package, this particular data flow seems to run fine and then just stops. There are no errors and the records counts don't move. I've used data viewers to look at the data and it seems fine. I've switched the OLEDB destination with a flat file and execution runs fine, then switched back to OLEDB and it hangs again (over and over). There's nothing unusual about the OLEDB destination, and all the other OLEDB destinations work fine. It also seems to hang on the same destination row number count, but again that row has been verified as valid. In fact, I dropped the DB table and recreated it with no constraints and all fields nullable, but the problem persists. Help?

Hi guys,
i got a foreach loop that has about 20 data flow tasks(same database connections but different extractions) but i notice that when i execute the project it only runs 4 data flow tasks at a time.
i know that there is an option for each data flow to set the "Engine Threads", but is there a way to set the thereads in a foreach loop or for the whole project so it will execute all data flow tasks in one go for each loop.
please help???

Hi, folks!
I got a serious problem with an SSIS-Import. My packages import from a foreign source into a kind of temp-table (actually it's not a temporary table, it´s just filled with data and truncated after completion of the package), do some transformations and then I got a data flow task that simply copies all the rows from the "temp" to the final table.

Well, it looks like those two processes simply deadlock each other. But there are 11 Simultanious Data Imports which all go fine. The Issue only occurs at those two. The structure of the packages is exactly the same everywhere.
Is it possible that a previous update-sql query hasen´t committed properly and locks the datasets?

Hi Everyone,
I'm looking for some suggestions on how I can go about the following task. I have an application which connects to our SQL2000 servers. Ocasionally some of the db connections take a long time to run. What I'd like to do is enable some sort of logging which would provide me with the following pieces of information... where the request originated from, length of time servicing the request, some sort of info on the nature of the request (search, insert, update, sproc, etc...), time of the request.
I'd then like to cross reference these logs with my application logs to isolate which requests are taking to long to service. Hopefully this will help us as we attempt to eliminate the issue.
Thanks for any suggetions you might have!!!! much appreciated!

Hi,
what are possiblities of tracing/ loginng execution steps inside of procedure WITHOUT modifiing code.
Example
Develper created procedure that run for 3 hrs , getting data
from different sources using openquery(db2 , sql servers, xml files), inside procedure 25-30 different statements
If we want to use profiler, what steps and filters to use in order to capture this procedure AND all steps inside procedure ?

Evening all,
I'm trying to do some profiling of a mobile application to determine where our performance bottleneck is. We have some conflicting information suggesting that inefficient usage of SqlCE might be the cause - but that code exists in a black-box library so we can't see what it's doing.
Are there any tools or configuration options to get the SqlCE execution engine to reveal what connections/queries it's being asked to perform? A simple list with some timestamps would be sufficient - just so we can map from our high-level data...
Any thoughts would be appreciated!
Jack

Hello,
I am using the event handling mechanism to do my custom logging. This works fine. Using the OnPreExecute and OnPostExecute my log tables fill up with the start- and enddates of all the containers and tasks in the complete package hierarchy.
However, what I am missing (e.g. in a system variable) is the source ID of the parent container that started the task or container. In other words, in my logging reports, I would like to build up a tree starting with the topmost package, like the progress indication in the IDE.
The built-in Logging features do not log this information either as far as I can tell.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Kind regards,
Jeroen

There is a table with a column that contains Xml documents. For each record from my Data Flow Source, I want to pass in the Xml document and the node to interrogate, and return the value contained in the node. Like the Crm component, this is probably one I will have to write from scratch in C#, but I would like to avoid having to create the custom component if it already exists in the public arena.
Does anyone know of any Xml Ssis Data Flow Components that are downloadable for free?

I was working all day making changes to my 3MB package. I was adding a large number of transforms that were copied-and-pasted from elsewhere in the same data flow task.
All was going well. I even took the time to have SSIS lay out the task again (1/2 hour). Suddenly I started receiving some strange errors:
After the layout, I noticed two stray components 'way off in the upper right corner. I found that one of them had a duplicate name to a component which had been added hours ago. Even after deleting it, I got "duplicate name" errors.
I copied three components in one selection, and when I tried to paste them, got the error "can't initialize component on paste". I tried them one at a time, but got the same error.
I got errors about COM failures due to marshalling to another thread
I then exited Visual Studio and started it again. To my great surprise, the data flow task I was working on was still there, but was completely empty.
Comparing what I'm left with to my last version in source control, I find that the entire pipeline element is missing from the DTS: ObjectData element!
I'm developing a real love/hate relationship with SSIS. It varies from one day to the next. Guess what kind of day this is!

Hello all,
I am struggling around defining a logging mechanism for my packages. I have 2 questions concerning that matter:
I have used event handlers for my loggings (as defined here: http://blogs.conchango.com/jamiethomson/archive/2005/06/11/1593.aspx ), but the problem is with packages that failed validation. I cannot find log entry for these cases since no "onerror event" doesn't trigger (for instance when the table I'm loading to doesn't exsist).
And the second question: many of my packages are executed using execute process task (using dtexec command line). I am trying to capture the result of the execution as a log file by using the ">" in the command line in order to output the execution to a log file in the following format:
dtexec /FILE "MyPackage.dtsx" > " MyPackageLog.log"
This works fine when executed by myself but when using the Execute Process task (defined: Executable: DTExec.exe, Arguments: /FILE "MyPackage.dtsx" > " MyPackageLog.log") I get execution error€¦
Thanks,
Liran

Hi,
I am using SSIS in SQL Server 2005 and want to have a query like this in my data flow task
Select a.*
from abc as a
inner join (Select max(b.id) as ID from xyz as b inner join pqr as c on b.id = c.id and b.id > ?) as t1
on t1.id = a.id
SSIS fails to detect the parameter (?) for the inner query and gives message.
"
Parameters cannot be extracted from the SQL command. The provider might not help to parse parameter information from the command. In that case, use the "SQL command from variable" access mode, in which the entire SQL command is stored in a variable.", so assuming this is your problem, then you can workaround.
"
The idea is to parameterize the inner query ,,,
(so if the above query doesnt make sense ignore it )

Hi, there,
I am having some problems with the loading of tab delimited text file (source) to a SQL Server table (destination) using the SSIS data flow task. Package has been executed successfully with no error msg. The number of rows in the text file also matches the number of rows in the SQL table. But, when I check the content of the table, I noticed some of the columns contain NULL which supposed to have value. This happens not to all the rows but only to some rows. I did some testing by removing some rows from the beginning, middle and end of the text file and re-run the package but the result is quite inconsistent. Sometimes, the field got filled, but sometimes, it just contains NULL where it supposed to have value.
What will be the possible causes to this?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Yong Hwee

Hi,
I am experiencing an error where the ssis data flow task would freeze and stop data export from a oledb source to a text file. It doesn't generate any errors the ssis package would just hang. This only happens when I run it in 64 bit mode. When I change the mode to 32 bit the ssis never freezes and runs fine. Has anyone experience this? Is there a fix so I can run my jobs in 64 bit mode?

I would like to know how I can add the following sample code to my Source data on Data Flow on SSIS, or what other options there are. The main issue is time as we have talking about 100's of millions of rows
select Sample,
CASE
WHEN Sample IS NULL
THEN NULL
WHEN SUBSTRING(Sample, 1, 6) IS NULL
THEN ' '
ELSE RTRIM(SUBSTRING(Sample, 1, 6))
END AS [Sample_1_6]
from TestTable
what I have done at this stage is just to Create a SQL task with a Insert into
INSERT INTO [dbo].[TestTable1]
([Sample]
,[Sample_1_6])
select Sample,
CASE WHEN Sample IS NULL =THEN NULL
WHEN SUBSTRING(Sample, 1, 6) IS NULL THEN ' '
ELSE RTRIM(SUBSTRING(Sample, 1, 6))
END AS [Sample_1_6]
from TestTable
If there is a way adding this to a dataflow so I van use fast load that would really be the best solution. I know there are derived columns, but would this really be faster than the straight insert into in a SQL Task? If this is the way to go what is the code I would use in the derived column or any other option.
