What is the best way to run a scheduled task that fires off three scripts that need to be run sequentially? I could set up three different tasks but I don't know exactly how long each will take and they are interdependent.

I have a scheduler doing ftp and bcp to SQLserver. How do I check the file size is greater than 0
after ftp completed? (right now I am using xp_cmdshell to execute ftp command and return 0 always,
even the file did not get transfer successfully).
DECLARE @result_ftp int,
@result_bcp int
EXEC result_ftp=xp_cmdshell @ftpbat
if (@result_ftp=0) ???? xp_cmdshell always return 0 ????
BEGIN
EXEC result_bcp=xp_cmdshell @bcpbat
if (@result_bcp=0)
print ' ## BPC Successfully##'
else
raiserror("BCP Fail", 16,1)
END
ELSE
print ' FTP fail'
return
Go
Dear friends,
Currently i am running a large sql server 2000. Usually when i need to generate reports, i will need to query using query analyser and paste the result in excel. This process is very tedious as the query takes long time due tolarge data. Also my reports have the frequency of daily, weekly and monthly.
I am looking for a job/query scheduler to automate this process and publish the result in excel.
I understand that DTS can only schedule a query to run but extracting the data to excel and Reporting Services does not have scheuler.
Please advise if there is any s/w or application can do this. Any freebies?
Cheers,
Darren
Hello,
I am have problems running a couple of jobs. It makes no sense. I have checked and made sure the agent service is running the same user level permissions as I am. I run the job manually from SMS and it works fine.

I have several DTS packages that I run in steps thru the scheduler. The only one that is giving me grief is one that extracts large amounts of data from an Oracle database. Any extract that is less than 30,000 rows is fine but more than that, only the last completed batch that keeps the rows returned under 30,000 will write out to either a new table or to a file. Not only do the rows not return, but it holds open any file that is being used (the one it is writing out to as well as the errorlog file.) I have changed batch sizes, max error counts, timeouts and every other variable I could find to no avail...The job immediately 'completes' its execution with a good return code but that appears only to be 'I sent your request off to Oracle' which releases the next step even though the data hasn't been returned (an issue I will tackle once I get all the data.) My Network folks and Oracle DBA are telling me that there are no size restrictions for passing the data back.
Any ideas where I have strayed off the path? Thanks for your help.

All,
I'm getting the following error in my SQL logs:
Process 51:16 (2bc) UMS Context 0x1249F118 appears to be non-yielding on Scheduler 0.
I killed the process, but it's been rolling back for 3 hours. It's done zero IO and consumed a TON of CPU time.
Any suggestions as to what I can do?
Thanks,

Hi Guru,Our HR sql 2000 production server is 800.760 built (SP3a) with 2GB ofRAM and 2 CPU hiper threading. This server is very low activity whereprocessor runs average 1-3 during the day. However, in the last twomonths, I've seen the following message occurred a few times on thisserver.Error: 17883, Severity: 1, State: 0The Scheduler 2 appears to be hung. SPID 0, ECID 0, UMS Context0x0381F660.I did extensive research and read both KB 815056 and 10885 but I couldnot correlate these KBs in to my issue. The reason is, I don't thinkour server is very busy to cause the checkpoint process to be delayed.The database keeps growing only 5-10MB in a week and I allocated thespace during off hour.What is the solution to fix this issue? Will I fix this issue byapplying the hotfix MS03-031?Thanks so much,Silaphet,

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am using the following batch file to execute a script that creates a db and all its objects in the local sql express:
sqlcmd -S (local)SQLExpress -i C:CreateDB.sql
This works fine, but I'm wondering if there's an easy way to put the script in the batch file, so users don't have to worry about putting the script in the C drive. I tried getting rid of the i parameter and pasting the script from the sql file into the batch file, but it didn't work.

Hi,
I'm developing an Ads system, which will have an scheduler functionality. Here's how it works: each hour a process will verify and publish an XML file with Ads that have to be shown at that hour. To display the Ad, the "NextDisplay" table's field has to be equal to currently date/HOUR. Then the process will update the "LastDisplay" field with the currently time and call a MsSQL stored procedure that will recalculate the NextDisplay time of the Ad.
My problem is doing this stored procedure. I've based my tables to allow the same schedule rules of the Windows Task Scheduler, so I have to verify each rule to calculate the next display time, but it's a difficult process, 'cause there are a lot of details to be considered.
I thought interoping with Windows Task Scheduler or seeing some code that do something like that, to have some ideas about how to implement it.
Suggestions?
Thx!

I am calling a sp_procedure from a scheduled task, it seems to complete ok , it has a return code = 0 in the history and the output looks ok.
The problems is that in the summary page its last_run_status it shows a a failed.
I think is due to the system output messages from dropping a table and doing a bcp.
My questions is how do I mask the output for this system messages?
Thanks,

Hi,
I have a schedule task with the following command:
xp_cmdshell 'bcp DBName.TBLOwner.TBLName in h:datafile.txt /fh:formatfile.fmt /Sservername /Usa /Ppassword'
The error message that I recieved is "Unable to open Host file. I can run the BCP command in Dos C prompt successfully, but
cannot run this in the SQL Server Scheduler. H drive is net use to the Server and it is where my data file and format file located.
Does anyone has any idea? I do appreciate for your help.
I have a job that was running on the SQL Server every business day. Once I disabled the scheduler for a day or two and then enabled it again. Well, now every once in a while my scheduler disables itself. Is there any logical explanation of this phenomenon?

Because of some usability terms, I need to use SSRS scheduler to determine reports creation frequency (minimum frequency is once a day)I need to use an external scheduler to SSRS in order to launch reports creation daily, after some other batch tasks execution that must be completed before launching report creation.
And I have no idea on how to do that properly. Can somebody help me?

I am hoping this is something simple, a security piece I've messed up.
When I run my dts package manually I get no errors and sucessful completion of each step. So I set my SQL Agent to run thepackage 15 minutes after every hour between 5am and 5pm, these being 15 minutes after the times the new data files are dropped to me.
But instead of running the package it disconnects all the remote desktop users and fails. When remote users can get back on we are faced with a system has recovered from a serious error message. The error message posted to the event logs is empty though.
Any one have any ideas?

Hi,
I'm looking to run a "job" on a SQL database regularly (like scheduled by a "task scheduler") to updated my database.
It appears I can use SQL Service broker to run such a job.
Can I embed a "task scheduler" inside my SQL Server database to trigger this job each X seconds?
I use the Task-Scheduler from SQL-SERVER 6.5 to backup and maintain databases. Have you any idea how I can clear the history automatically. I want to clear the history-logs older then 30 days and for 25 SQL-Server is it very costly to delete the history manually. Thanks.

Clustered SQL Server 2K sp3a (single instance)
Product version: 8.00.760
Problem:
I end up in error 17883.
I am aware that the solution is to apply this patch:
821277 MS03-031:Security Patch for SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 3.
I am also aware that after you install this cumulative patch you will end up in this problem:
826161 FIX: You are prompted for password after you change a standard SQL Server login.
After reading this one I found that there are 2 possibility to solve this problem, one if you have already installed the security patch from MS03-031 and another one if you do NOT have installed this patch.
Question:
Do I only need to apply this last one (is it also cumulative?) or do I need to first apply MS03-031 and then later the FIX 826161?
Please advise.
Kind regards.

Hello,
I had configured a backup operation with SQL Server Express 2005 and saved the operation as a .sql file. I then configured a task with Task Scheduler to execute this .sql file at a specified time. The text in the Run box for this task is:
"C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90ToolsBinnSQLCMD.EXE" -S .SQLEXPRESS -i"C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerFull_M-Th.sql"
I verified this .sql file would run a backup by launching Management Studio Express, opening the file, and then clicking the Execute button. Minutes later, I had a backup. Yet the scheduled task did not run, nor would it run when I manually chose to run it from the list of scheduled tasks. I looked in the Event Viewer, but could not find anything that tipped me off to what I am not doing correctly. If anyone can tell me what might be wrong with the command I pasted above, it would be appreciated.
Thanks for reading!
