After Upgrade - Jobs Are Very Slow
Nov 11, 2007
After upgrading to SQL Server 2005, jobs that were taking 5 minutes are now taking 1 hour - is this normal ?
what am I missing

Jobs - Unexpected Slow Performance
Mar 7, 2003DECLARE @num int
SET @num = 0
DECLARE @tableVariable table(ColA int, ColB decimal(18,4))
WHILE @num < 1000
BEGIN
INSERT INTO @tableVariable VALUES (2, 10.56)
SET @num = @num +1
ENDWhen this code is run in SQL Server 2000 Query Analyzer it commits in less than 1 second.
The same code run as a SQLServerAgent job takes 16 seconds.
Similar behaviour appears if INSERT statement is substituted with UPDATE.
SELECT statement runs equally nice on both alternatives.
Has anybody got an idea what might be the reason for slow execution of INSERT and UPDATE in a job?
Thanks,

Urgent SQL Jobs Running Very Very Slow
Dec 29, 2001Hi,
I have SQLServer 6.5 SP5a update running on Windows NT 4.0 SP6
with 4 gig RAM and 4 processor.
Suddenly the SQL 6.5 jobs running on the production server started running very very slow. A job that suppose to run in 30 minutes are running like 2 hours and completing successfully.
(I suspect the after the Norton Anti virus automatic live update may be the reason but not the Second Vulnerability as mentioned by Microsoft Bulletin last week)
I check the SQLServer, ran the performance monitor, checked pagefiles, disk space, databases,memory, tempdb. Everything seems to be normal.
I rebooted the server, checked any other process making that slow. But no use.
Please help me out with this issue as this is a production and the CRM applications from the clients uses the database server.
Thanks in advance,
Anu
SQL 2005 Upgrade - SQL Jobs
Jul 19, 2007Hello All
I am currently reviewing MS documentation regarding an upgrade to SQL 05 (from 2000). Given the risks invloved we have opted for a side-by-side upgrade. The "Upgrade Technical Resource Guide" indicates that system databases cannot be upgraded. This leaves the question "What to do with Jobs, Operators and Alerts?"
Do these have to be recreated manually?
Also is there no easy way to migrate DB Maintenance plans ?
I will use MS's sp_help_revlogin stored proc to re-create users but what about the msdb stuff ? I am presuming the structure is different hence cannot script (in 2000) and apply (to 2005) the Jobs.
The Copy Databases wizard can copy Jobs etc but my past experience with this has not been brilliant so am reluctant to use it. We plan to use the "backup and restore" method to migrate the user databases.
Thanks in advance.
Slow Performance After Upgrade
Dec 10, 2007Hi.
I have successful upgraded from Windows 2000 / SQL Server 2000 to Windows 2003 / SQL Server 2005. Here is the process:
- Install Windows 2003 / SQL Server 2005 on new VM instance
- Detached SQL Server 2000 database -> Copy data to the new server and Attached to SQL Server 2005
- Run scripts to restore user login
- Change Compatibility level to: SQL Server 2005 (90)
Now, open 3rd party application and connect to the new database server (via IP address), the application was connecting ok and access data without no problem. However, database take more than 5 minute to connect/open instead of 30sec via the old the server?
Please adivse what could be the issue? Thanks!
SSIS Becomes EXTREMELY Slow After SP2 Upgrade
Feb 22, 2007On a dual opteron server, viewing the properties of a task inside a data flow was immediate up until this morning.
We just installed SP2, rebooted, and now you right-click on any task and it takes between 30 secs and 5 minutes before the context menu pops-up.
The server is 99% idle, most of the 16 Gigs of memory are idle as well.
Access Web Application Is Slow, Should I Upgrade To SQL Server?
Jun 6, 2006Hi,
first time poster/newbie here.
I've
got a football (soccer for the yanks!) predictions league website that
is driven by and Access database. It basically calculates points
scored for a user getting certain predictions correct. This is the URL:
http://www.pool-predictions.co.uk/home/index.asp
There
are two sections of the site however that have almost ground to halt
now that more users have registered throught the season. The players
section and league table section have gone progressively slower to load
throughout the year and almost taking 2 minutes to load.
http://www.pool-predictions.co.uk/home/players.asp?tab=a_d
http://www.pool-predictions.co.uk/home/table.asp
All
the calculations are performed in the Access database Ive written and
there are Access SQL queries to get the data out.
My
question is, is how can I speed the bloody thing up! ! Somone has
alos suggested to me that I use stored procedures and SQL Server to
speed things up? Ive never used SQL Server before so I am bit scared
about using it (Im only a hobbyist), and I dont even know what a SP is
or does. How easy will it be upgrading the whole thing to SQL Server
and will it be worth the hassle, bearing in mind I expect my userbase
to keep growing? Do SP help speed things up significantly? Would
appreciate some advice!
Thanks in advance,
John.

Upgrade Advisor Post-upgrade
Dec 6, 2006Greetings,
I have a client whose DBA upgraded their SQL 2000 database to SQL 2005. They still have it running in 8.0 compatibility mode, for various reasons, and would like me to help them develop a migration strategy to get them to full 9.0 compatibility.
My question is: can I run the Upgrade Advisor on a SQL 2005 engine database running in 8.0 compatibility mode and get anything useful? I already know there will be some issues with existing DTS packages but it would be nice to catch any other issues in advance.
I know that the Upgrade Advisor was run before the upgrade took place but to my knowledge the report was not saved and none of the recommendations were followed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Lon
In Place Upgrade Vs Side By Side Upgrade
Jun 1, 2007SQL 2000 -> SQL 2005 upgrade on windows server 2003 ... We've done numerous side by side types of upgrades which have the advantages of being able to migrate things at a slower pace with limited downtime. I have a situation where it seems like it would be the least amount of work to do an in place upgrade involving 22 transactional in-house developed databases and associated in-house developed applications. There's no replication, no DTS packages, nothing I can think of that would complicate the upgrade. I was wondering if there's people out there that have done lots of these and haven't had any problems OR if there have been lots of problems. Anyway, any advice would be appreciated.

View 2 Replies View RelatedJobs In 7.0 Vs. 6.5
Feb 16, 2001Hi all,
My firm has about 15 SQL Servers. 5 of them are still 6.5 and the other 10
are 7.0. I have noticed that the jobs I have setup to perform maintenance
tasks, backups etc. almost never fail in 7.0. Similar tasks routinely
fail on the 6.5 servers.
So I did a test. I deleted a database in 7.0 and ran a backup job. Although
the log for the job said that it couldn't find the db it still said the job
was successful. In 6.5 if you try to run a job on a non-existent db it
fails. What's going on in 7.0? What has to happen for a SQL Server agent job
to fail. This seems like an awfully dangerous new "feature".
If anyone could shed light on this I would appreciate it.
Thanks

How do we add DTS pakages to a scheduled job ?

>Once i create a schedule, It goes into Jobs as a Scheduled job.
>Now in the propertied part of the first DTS job i need to add a second DTS
as Step2, mentioning that it should run after the First DTS.
How do we do this ?

Now that I have moved them, they now fail each and all. I have copied the script and saved them as vbs files and placed them in a folder on the server and ran them successfully. I think it has something to do with the rights, but I don't know what. Could someone shed some light on possible causes?

Jobs For SQL
Nov 29, 2007I already learned SQL by reading "Head First SQL" book (which uses MySQL). I also know how to use Excel(using basic function and creating pivot table.) However, I noticed that many available jobs require Microsoft SQL Server 2005 and also using SQL with Excel. Now, I am thinking to learn SQL Server 2005 Express Edition because it is free! I would really appreciate if anyone who has been working in industry give me some suggestions about what is the best way to learn SQL Sever 2005? or does it worth to learn? or is it hard to learn? Can you recommend good book or website for learning SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. Thanks!
