Hello, we started a restore of a database that is just over 1.2 TB. It took 23 hours to complete the Copy Data Phase. Now, SQL Server continues to show the database in a Restoring state, however, there is no other indication of what SQL Server is doing. We do not have any way to see in which phase of the restore process SQL Server is in or how much time may be remaining. We do know that SQL Server is doing something because of the I/O activity. Its there a command, script, or other tool that we can use to determine where in the Restore process we are and how much time may be remaining? We did not use the WITH STATS = switch so that is out, and the sys.dm_exec_requests shows Percent_Complete is 100, however, we know that its not done, the Data Copy Phase has completed but the Severe is still churning.
we have a reporting database that needs to be refreshed every week. I normally get a big backup file (50GB) from our business partner very Sunday morning; I have setup a job to restore the database once I got the backup file. The restore job normally will take about 4 or 5 hours to finish, but sometime it may take much longer (more than 10 hours). We knew there is some kind of disk storage contention going on the SAN. When this problem happens the system guy always try to pick my db restore process to be the victim. I hate to kill a job when it has 90% done, but I have no way to tell the restore progress status. Does someone know if I can query database restore progress information from any DMVs?
I have some SP's I run once a month and each SP takes a few mins to run and when I batch em together in one shot, I hate sitting there waiting for them to finish whats the easiest way to report back the status of the exec?
I am having a problem backing up a customer database to tape. The progress bar just sits there with no movement. I have even left it running overnight and nothing the next day I am able to backup all other databases (master, msdb, model). Any help would be appreciated.
Our ERP uses a Progress db but several of our web apps are developed in vb.Net and use a SQL backend. I need to pull some data in from Progress using TSQL queries.
Experimenting a little I find that a simple query, i.e. from 1 Progress table, takes anywhere from 20 seconds to a couple of minutes. However, when I joined on a 2nd table, I had to cancel the query after it ran for over 10 minutes.
SQL server is connected to Progress via a Linked server.
Any advice on improving the query will be appreciated.
I believe the query has to be in the T-SQL syntax; is that right? Where does the translation into Progress syntax occur?
is there a way to capture what gets written to the progress tab to a table, or is it overwritten on each execution as xml somewhere so it can be saved kind of like an odometer? the mission is to be able to audit the results of a load, or even if it doesnt turn out to be a load, then document the run.
similarly, is there a way to watch what executes to see what actually runs during a merge join transform, iow, something that exposes ssis to trace? how do i find it?
Does anyone knows how to retrieve execution progress from ssis package, that was executed programatically. What I am trying to do, is to launch ssis package on server and send the progress ("percent complete") to some remote client in order to display it in progress bar. I want that ,while ssis package executes, it will raise some event every time the progress changes.
When running large Store Procedures that take several hours, does SQL 05 have a way of monitoring the progress by telling you what it has actually completed so far rather than having to wait till the query has finished to find out.
Hi guys, I am using ASP.NET 2.0, In one web page i am loading a data from VIEW,This view takes more time to execute and this this data is i am showing in grid on page load event.and the web page only displayes after the view execute until it remains on old page User fills there is no response.

I have a script file which do the replication and in the script there is a lot of table need to be addad as article.
So while use osql execute the script there would be cost a lot of time. What I want to do is show a dialog which could show the progress percent and the file name which is now being addad as article.
Does anybody have information on co-existence of SQL Server and Progress on the same machine? Are they happy to live together, or should they be given separate homes? I would like to cut down on server proliferation, if possible, and have a server "beefy" enough to handle both, but is it a wise thing to do?
1. I am trying to create an index, which is running for a long time. Is there an option to know the progress so far or how much more time it is going to take?
2. Is there anyway to find out how much space is required to rebuild an index?

I'm trying to pull data from about 30 progress databases using DTS andscheduling the jobs to run monthly. I'd like to pull data betweenspecific dates, but for some reason, I can't figure out how to filterthe data on the progress side.I want to run a query that will pull all data fromprior-month/8/current-yearandcurrent-month/15/current-yearI'll also have to account for when it's january, make it december ofthe year before.Any ideas?thanks,M@
I'm doing a big old join on one table with 10,000,000 rows, andanother with400,000 rows. As you can imagine, this is taking a long time.Is there any way to monitor the progress of the join after executingthe sql statement (more specifically, from code)?(Oh, and any good practices for speeding up this join would beappreciated, too).Thanks,Andrew
The ETL processing for my project will be deployed as part of a larger application which is operated by non-technical users. Therefore I want to provide real-time feedback to the user on progress, errors, etc., using windows standard GUI interface objects and style- for example a progress bar. The "designer" of course does some of this but there won't be any designer in our deployed application (and SSIS designer is neither intended to be used by, nor appropriate for, non-technical users anyway).
Now that I have the ETL logic working, it's time to tackle this UI requirement. I am thinking one way to do this is to start a script task to run in parallel with the main ETL processing, open a winform in that task that has various GUI objects whose "state" is based on package scoped variables, update the package level variables via the "on progress" event (or other events as needed) of various SSIS tasks and components, and refresh the winform's display regularly via a timer event.
Does this approach seem like it would be effective? Has anyone tried maintaining an open winform via a script task and updating it's objects via package variables in parrallel with the package is running other tasks?
I have a pacakage wich loads data from a .csv file into my database. When I run the package from Visual Studio there is a Progress/Execution Results tab where I see information about the progress. I would like to insert some of these messages into my database. I tried to handle the OnProgress event with an Execute SQL Task and insert the Progress descriptions, but that doesn't seem to give all the information I see on the above mentioned tab (moreover, I get different numbers of events running the package from VS and running it programmatically from c#, why is that?).
What I really would like to get are the messages from the Progress tab which look like these:
[Agreement File [11773]] Information: The processing of file "D:****files*********.csv" has started.
[Agreement File [11773]] Information: The total number of data rows processed for file "D:****files*********.csv" is 201.
[Agreement File [11773]] Information: The processing of file "D:****files*********.csv" has ended.
[DTS.Pipeline] Information: "component "OLE DB Destination" (12598)" wrote 200 rows.
Hi! I have filegroup that has to few files. I added new files (corresponding to number of cores). Now I'm trying to move data to these new files: dbcc shrinkfile ('oldfile', EMPTYFILE)
But now there are gone nearly one day and dbcc is not finished yet. It is stressing not to see some progress.
Is it possible to see in some sys table how much data are moved?
I have just finished building an SSIS package which does a couple of things including using variables, calling child packages as well as starting off replication.
I plan to kick-off the package via SQL Server Agent.
Is there any way I can monitor the progress of this report by creating a web front-end that refreshes every few minutes to report on errors and progress?
Is there any way to limit the content that is placed into the Progress Tab during execution of a package in debug mode?
My problem is that I have a complex package that puts lots of info in there. This package is called in a loop from another package. Each time the package is called, the new info is added to the existing info in the Progress Tab. Eventually the instance of Dev Studio hangs when it gets too much content in that screen.
The only solution would be if I can limit the output content of that screen or turn it off.
I have a query that returns the jobs that have completed for the nightly processing.
If I run the query it does not reflect jobs that are in progress.How can the following query be modified to reflect jobs that have started but have not completed?
SELECT DISTINCT j.Name AS Job_Name, msdb.dbo.Agent_datetime(Run_Date, Run_Time) AS Run_Datetime, Dateadd(second, Datediff(second, 0, msdb.dbo.Agent_datetime(19000101, Run_Duration)), msdb.dbo.Agent_datetime(Run_Date, Run_Time)) AS Run_Endtime, Stuff(Stuff(RIGHT('000000' + Cast(Run_Duration AS VARCHAR(6)), 6), 5, 0, ':'), 3, 0, ':') AS Run_Duration,
I am working on a SSRS report and need to show a progress bar as shown in the image below.I can think of using two cells in my tablix with
1:-First cell -a databar having value as percentage (scale 1 to 100) 2:-Second cell containing percent value and then removing the border ( not merging )
I'm trying to do an Ad Hoc connection to a Progress database from SQL query Analyzer. I have successfully created a DataDirect ODBC connection and I can access the progress database tables through Excel. However, I can't get it working in SQL.
How to perform testing on SSIS packages? I need to find out how the package progress and the re-entry takes place through c#.net. Please provide me an appropriate code.
Hi All, I have trouble with SQL Server 2005. I downloaded last night trial evolution. And I want to intall it but I cant progress after some points. And pop-up window appears with a msg that
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Setup ------------------------------ SQL Server Setup could not validate the service accounts. Either the service accounts have not been provided for all of the services being installed, or the specified username or password is incorrect. For each service, specify a valid username, password, and domain, or specify a built-in system account.

And I opened the link above it says I must enter a strong password and I have done but I couldnt pass the step again.
I need to pull in data from a progress database into a table in SQL server 2005. I have an ODBC conncetion on the server where I am working.
I am new to SSIS but have used DTS. I need to succsefully pull the data into a table in SQL server 2005 from this progress database.
I have setup my ODBC connection but I cannot pull the data using this connection. The connection test succeeded for the connection manager. When I attempt to use the datasource reader and point to the ODBC Connection Manager entry I recieve Cannot acquire a managed connection from the run time connection manager
I have a SSIS package which process 12699 files in a folder. After about 20 minutes it looks like the loading is finished (the record count of database table doesn't change any more) and I believe it's finished, but if I check the Progress tab, it's still showing the file name being processed and still moving. So my first question is: is it still loading files or it's just that the progress message is behind? Then I click on stop debugging, after a while it stopped but then it's frozen, nothing responds no matter what I click. I haven't saved the package yet so I don't want to close it out. Should I just wait? And what is the problem?
Thanks a lot for your help in advance!!
p.s. I'm exploring SSIS and will convert our current DTS packages to SSIS so you'll see me post more and more questions down the road.
