Transact SQL :: Agent Jobs - Running More Than 3 Hours Based On Job Name?
Sep 24, 2015I need a sql script for Jobs is running more-than 3 hours in a current server, based on a particular jobs.

View 2 RepliesI want to display Days Hours Mins Format.
I am Having two columns Like below,
Col1 (in days) Â Â col2 (In Hours : Mins)
3days 4:5Â
In this first have to  add Col1 and Col2 (Here one day is equals to 9 hours ) so the addition is 31.5
From this 31.5 I should display 3 Days 4 Hours 30 Mins because 31.5 contains 3 (9 hours) days 4 Hours and .5 is equals to 30 mins.
I’m trying to write a script that will detect long running agent jobs.
Having looked at this article:
http://www.databasejournal.com/features/mssql/article.php/3500276
It appears that agent job job id’s don’t necessarily get stored in the programname of the sysprocesses table. This is true if the agent executes an os command. It also appears that job steps do not get stored in the sysjobhistory until the step is complete so that cannot be used accurately.
Does anyone know of an effective way to find if there are long running jobs other than these methods?
Hi,
I'm trying to configure mirroring with High Availability, Automatic Failover.
I know that all the jobs and maintenance plans need to be copied to the mirror server, and enabled if a mirror database takes over the principal role.
I wonder if it is a good solution to have all agent jobs on the Witness server (no jobs on principal and mirror). And all the jobs select the server where they should run (depending on current role).
One of the advantages of this approach would be that the jobs have to be created only once on the witness.
Will this solution work? What are the downsides of it?
Thanks,
Anna Sibirtseva.

Hi. I was wondering if anyone has ever had a problem where nothing seems to be wrong with the server, and SQL Server Agent is up and running, but jobs fail. We had a job run at midnight, and it was the last successful run. Every job failed after that, with an error stating "Unable to retrieve steps for job..." There doesn't seem to be any reason for the problem. The jobs were kicked off manually and they all ran.
The only other error messages we could find were in the Application Event Viewer on the server. But the first error happened days ago and said this: "The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( .NET Runtime ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: Unable to open shim database version registry key - v2.0.50727.00000."
Since then, every few seconds this error occurred: "Windows cannot load extensible counter DLL MSSQLServerOLAPService, the first DWORD in data section is the Windows error code."
We turned off the performance monitor counters and that error stopped. But we still have no idea if that was the cause of the problem.
This isn't the first time we've had an issue with jobs failing because the steps couldn't be 'found', while SQL Server Agent was up and running.
Has anyone else had this problem?
Thanks!
When I give job Id in filter of this query this will give job status of "Success" but actually my job is currently in executing stage. I want to get all jobs that are currently in executing status.
Use msdb
go
select distinct j.Name as "Job Name", --j.job_id,
case j.enabled
when 1 then 'Enable'
when 0 then 'Disable'
[Code] ....
I try to find out how many jobs where run in parallel on my server in an interval of time. For example: between 1:00 AM and 2:00 AM there were MAX 66 jobs that run in parallel and MIN 4 jobs. I am not sure if I can find this info out from a system view or I need to play with sysjobhistory view.

Here is the example of data along with required column

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.

I went to View Synchronization status and see that the sychronization has been running for two hours already. Is that normal? I thought it would just find the one change I made and update that one change?
Thanks in advance!

The following basic UPDATE SQL statement has been running for 16 hours and counting. I need to get this done ASAP.
UPDATE Recipients SET UndeliverableTime = getdate()
FROM Recipients
INNER JOIN Domains ON (Recipients.DomainID = Domains.ID)
INNER JOIN Undeliverables ON (
Recipients.UserName + '@' + Domains.Domain =
Undeliverables.EmailAddress)
Is there any way I can see how far this has gone and how long it will take to finish? Will this take another hour to finish or another week?
Both tables (Recipients and Undeliverables) have approximately 80 million records
I did a nearly identical operation with another table that had only 7 million records and it took 10.5 hours. I hope this doesn't scale linearly to 115 hours.
I am tempted to cancel, retune, and rerun but that may be trigger a really expensive rollback operation that could take days. Any ideas?
thanks!
I have a series of jobs in the SQL server Agent that will begin and appear to run fine, but will never finish. Is there a way to limit the time that a job will run in the agent, for instance stop with failure if not completed within 1 hour?
Thanks for the help

I have a transaction log that tracks issues from a call center. Eachtime an issue is assigned to someone else, closed, etc. I get a timestamp. I have these time stamps for the beginning of an issue to theend of an issue and I'd like to determine how many business hours theseissues were open.Issue BeginDt Enddt Total hours1 3/29/05 5:00 PM 4/1/05 2:00 PM 69Basically, this is the type of data I'm looking at and my hours of workare from 7:30 - 5:00 weekdays. I need to come up with a way to removeall nonbusiness hours, weekends, & holidays from the difference of thetwo dates. Issues can span for 2-3 days or 20-30 days.Please let me know if anyone has any ideas or has done something likethis before.Thanks!

I am not able to see any of the jobs in the enterprise manager that are scheduled on one of our production servers. Have any body seen this type of behaviour of SQL server.. The jobs are there in the SQL as I can query sysjobs table to see there entry.. The jobs are being executed properly when they are supposed to..

Hi Guys,
Can you please advice me on if there is a limitation on SQL agent Jobs. If then how many jobs can SQL server accomedate.
If there is a limit, then is there are any ways to increase it?
I appreciate your quick response.
Thanks
I have several users that are a member
of a Windows Nt group. I want to be
able to allow this group to create,
update, and delete SQL Agent Jobs.
But I do not want them to be members
of the SYSADMIN role.
Everything that I have found states
that they must be members of this
server role to perform these actions.
Does anyone have an idea on how to
accomplish this? or point me in some
kind of direction to explore.

Hello all,
we just moved our databases over from a SQL 2000 server onto a new SQL 2005 server. We had no problem migrating them over, but was wondering if there was a way to migrate the jobs over as well. We have about 20 of them and would prefer not to hav to create them all again on the new server.
Thanks in advance,

Hi Group,
Is it possible to schedule and execute sql jobs from an asp page.
I am developing an application that requires an administration section. In this section the admin would like to change / update the schedule of the sql job and also run the jobs ad hoc. Basicall y they would like the functionality of sql agen in enterprise manager to be available from their web application.
Has anbody done this before ?
All information / solutions shall be psoted back to the group as I reckon this would be pretty useful functionality.
Thanks in advance

The SQL Server Agent process is running. When I use EM to start a database integrity
check job, it fails with an error message of 22029 and the following:
[LOG] SQLServerAgent security context does not have server-autorestart privileges
I can not find error 22029 in Books on Line. I will go to Microsoft Knowledge base
and research this problem.
In the mean time if someone can help, it is much appreciated.
Thanks to all.

Hi all,
I am trying to write a T-SQL script to change about 200 SQL Agent jobs to send notification to a different email notification list. I could do this manually but it would take me a lot more time. Is there a way to script this out in T-SQL? Thanks!
Hello,
I need to document all SQL Server Agent Jobs with full description of dependencies - database, table, stored procedure, etc.
Is there are a tool that I can download for that particular use???
Thank you so much
I have a job with a single ActiveX step that I have setup and am having problems running.
If i set the SQL Server Agent to run as an Administrator then my job processes fine however under the default setup which has the SQL Server Agent running as Local System I get an error.
I assume this is permissions problem so I created a basic windows user called ABC. I then created a credential called ABC linked to the windows user ABC. I then created a proxy that uses the credential ABC and then ticked the box that allows the proxy to run ActiveX scripts. I then set the ABC as a principle of the proxy.
I then set my single job step to be run under the ABC credential.
Still no luck. This is the first time i've worked with this sort of thing so I'm not sure if I'm going about it in the right way.
Please explain how i can have a job that runs as an active X script. I understand running sql server agent as administrator is bad for security so what are the alternatives?
in reference to both MSSQL 2k8R2 and 2012, if i have a named instance AND a default instance on the same installation, and i create agent jobs (backups, indexing, etc) on either one, those same jobs appear on the "other" instance without having actually created them while logged IN to that instance.
Is this a normal feature of MSSQL? Doesn't seem like it should be happening that way.
I created an agent job, and it runs fine, but I want more control over the scheduling. I need to schedule jobs to run Sunday through
Thursday at 8:00pm, skipping Friday.
How can I use the agent job interface and customize the schedule this way? Will I have to resort to a Windows Service and control the
scheduling that way?
I have about 20 agent jobs.
How to generate scripts for all agent jobs?
Hi Guys,
I am not sure if this is the right place to put a question on SQL Server Agent.
I have scheduled some SSIS Jobs using the SQL Server Agent, and wanted to know how can I view detailed log information on how the Job ran (particularly Failure Information).
The information in the Log File Viewer to see the job execution log doesnt seem to help much - as it only says weather the Job Failed or Succeeded.
I need to see the reason and/or the step in a job where it failed!
Can someone help me out with some insight into this....
Thanks

I have a few jobs in sql server 2005 agent that got corrupted that Iwould like to restore.
Do they get backed up and how can I restore them?
SQL Server 2005 SP2 CU3 (Build 3186)
We have a SQL Agent job which runs on a server which is running mirrored databases. If the database which is affected by the job is in the mirror state, SQL Server agent locates the principle, executes the statements against that, and completes successfully.
This behavior is not consistent.
This is potentially serious; if jobs implemented on both sides of a mirror are not disabled, they may both execute.
We have suffered incorrect financial values due to a reconciliation job running twice (on each side of the mirror, and updating the principle twice).
It's easy to set up a test job to confirm this.
Can anyone else re-create this?
Thanks!
