Thanks!

As part of the logging facility in my backup maintenance plans, I have set the logging options to generate a text file report and mail it to an agent operator which I have set up. The job which runs this successfully send a completion email to the same operator when the job is finished, however the text file report fails with the following message:
Could not generate mail report.An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch.The specified @operator_name ('SQL Server Administrators') does not exist.
How can I fix this issue?

I'm running SQL 2005 SP2 Enterprise Edition, and I have database mirroring configured for all of my non-system databases (3 total). My primary database server is a 2-node cluster. I've tried this from both a remote machine and directly on the SQL server itself, with the same results. Could this have anything to do with the data mirroring? I didn't have this problem previous to setting that up, although I haven't tried creating a maintenance plan in quite a while either.

Creating a simple maintenance plan to backup specific databases.
As soon as i try to save the plan i get the popup error :"no such interface supported". It won't allow me to save any plan at all regardless of what I put in there.
I need someone's help!!!!
Hello, I get the error
Creating maintenance plan "MaintenancePlan" (Error)
when I try to create a maintenance plan. I checked and the Microsoft Web site and
other forums said it may be that integration services is not installed so I tried installing it
and it said that it is already installed.
The accompanying messages with the report are:

I'm running SQL 2005 SP2 on a cluster. I have a maintenance plan that backs up databases. When I execute the job associated with the plan, I get the following error:
Unable to start execution of step 1 (reason: line(1): Syntax error). The step failed.
This only occurs when node 1 is active. When node 2 is active, the job runs with no problem.
I edited the job, and it references the package
Maintenance PlansPlanName
If I add a leading "" to the package path so that is reads
Maintenance PlansPlanName
then the job runs successfully on both nodes. So the question is why would this fail on one node and not the other? I know there are SSIS issues when applying SP2 on a cluster, so we applied it on each node. SSIS is running version 9.0.3042 on each node.
Thanks,
Tom
Error:
Could not generate mail report.An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch.Supply either @id or @name.
I am trying to send a email when a maintenance plan completes. I selected the logging option and checked "Send report to an email recipient". I selected the recipient I created in database mail. Sending test emails out from database mail works.
Any ideas what the problem could be?
Thanks!

Can somebody guive me alittle guidance in how to make this? I have like 4 lookups but some can throw errors, and I need to know what happened when I go to the office in the moorning.
Thanks
I have a script task in which I check the size of a file.
If the size of a file is greater then 0 KB then I need to send this file as an attachment using send email task.
If size is equal to 0 KB then I don't want to send email at all.
In the script task, I have a flag(@sFileExists) which i set to true in case of size of file greater then 0 and false in other case.
I am using a precedance constraint (Expression : @sFileExists=true) and condition is logical AND.
After script task based on the condition (@sFileExists=true) I am using the send email task for sending the email.
But I am not receiving the email. Please sugest where I am wrong.
Please note that the send email task is working all-right separately.

SSIS : I have a "On Failure" precedence constraint that executes a Send Email Task for a Data Flow Task. Do you know how I might capture the error message from the Data Flow Task to include it in the Email (most likely as a variable)?
Thank you for any help!

We have a maintenance plan that runs every 15 minutes to backup a transaction log. It fails intermittantly with the message:
"sqlmaint.exe failed. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 22029). The step failed."
This is the only error message to be found in any of the logs. I've checked event viewer, the SQL error logs, exception log, maintenance plan log, sysdbmainplan_history table in msdb, but can't find any extra information. I checked the MSDN for info on this error and this did not add any extra light on the problem.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to de-bug this error?
regards

OS: Win 2003 Service Pack I on 2 boxes
SQL: SQL Server 2005 Clustered System
Situation: I have created a maintenance plan to backup my transaction log every hour. This runs fine for some time and then later that day it stops working. This could happen at any anytime, and I end up having to manually kick it off again. I read the SQL error logs and this is what it points to:
[298] SQLServer Error: 2, Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server [2]. [SQLSTATE 08001]
[165] ODBC Error: 0, Login timeout expired [SQLSTATE HYT00]
[298] SQLServer Error: 2, An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. [SQLSTATE 08001]
[382] Logon to server 'JAXNVSQL1CLS' failed (ConnAttemptCachableOp)
[177] Job MaintenancePlan Insight Transaction Logs has been requested to run by Schedule 10 (Insight Transaction Log Backup)
[165] ODBC Error: 0, Login timeout expired [SQLSTATE HYT00]
I have already used SAC to confirm that remote connections is enabled using TCP/IP and Named Pipes. I have used the server configuration tool as well to check this. I have used the Studio Management and checked on the remote connections as well.
I know these protocols are enabled and working because I have used the Studio Management to check on the activity connections type and seen both are working. Plus the fact this maintenance plan does work, it just so happens something causes it later to fail. When this does fail, I log onto the server but can not login using the Studio Management , I get [298] errors. I can login using the Studio Management on my laptop remotely but can not manually kick off the maintenance plan. I end up having to log on to the server and restart the MSSQL Server service and manually kick off my plans. (By the way these services do not show shutting down in the Windows event viewer). After restarting the MSSQL Server service and manually executing the maintenance plan everything is fine until the next time it hits a glitch.
I do have SQL Browser up and running, all of the MSSQL services running, I need some help as to what may be causing this problem!!!!!!!!! HELP!!!!! I am losing my mind!!!!
Hi All,
I need to send out email when error occurs in the package. Is it a good practice to put the send email task in the event handler? Then MaximumErrorCount is set to 1. But for some reason, some time I saw more than one email are sent out. Please advise. Thanks
I'm trying to put together an SSIS package that will look in one directory for 2 distinctly named .csv files. The files will then be loaded into 2 tables.
The first task I execute is a SQL Task that checks to see if the tables I'm loading the data into are empty. If the tables have data, the package stops executing. If they are empty, the package continues to execute.
What is the best way to send an email out from SSIS if the package stops on the first step?
Hello,
I have a question that I hope someone can clear up for me. I have come across a number of different suggestions on DB maintenance, for example reindexing with the following script:
USE DatabaseName --Enter the name of the database you want to reindex
DECLARE @TableName varchar(255)
DECLARE TableCursor CURSOR FOR
SELECT table_name FROM information_schema.tables
WHERE table_type = 'base table'
OPEN TableCursor
FETCH NEXT FROM TableCursor INTO @TableName
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
DBCC DBREINDEX(@TableName,' ',90)
FETCH NEXT FROM TableCursor INTO @TableName
END
CLOSE TableCursor
DEALLOCATE TableCursor
My question is, doesn't the maintenance plan have this functionality inherent in it when you create the maintenance jobs to reindex? Is there a benefit to scripting things out vs just using the maintenance plan wizard for this sort of thing and any of the items it covers? I came from an Oracle background where this was a no-brainer but I am a bit confused on the choices with SQL Server.
Thanks.
I have deleted a database from SQL Enterprise Manager. Anyone know a way to clear that database from my maintenance plan? I do not wish to just uncheck the deleted database or create a new database plan.
Thanks!
Hello All
I have been given a SQL Server 2000 database to look after which has been set up with a Database maintenance plan. The plan is set to backup the complete database and the transaction log. The backups are written to the local disk correctly but the plan is also set to remove any backup files (both database .BAK and transaction log .TRN) that are over one week old. Complete database .BAK files are written daily and the .TRN are written every hour daily. The .BAK files are removed ok automatically but the .TRN files are not - they are just slowly filling the disk. There does not seen to be anything different between the way the main database and the transaction log is set up in the maintenance plan.
I would be very grateful for any ideas
I have a strange thing in one of our Maintenance plans.
On the first tab where you check which databases you're including in the plan I have (say my database name is CAT) a 'CAT' and 'cat' database listed and the one chosen is 'cat'. However my database in all other views shows up in all caps. (even when I do an sp_helpdb)
The backups look like they're working, etc. but it just seems weird. If I go to create a new plan it only gives me the one option 'CAT' which is really what's there. I'm new and I'm thinking the database at one time was 'cat' and this is when the maintenance plan was created. Then it was renamed to 'CAT' and there's the two db's showing in the old mainenance plan.
What would you do? Create a new plan with "CAT" and just get rid of the old one with the weird 'cat' and 'CAT'?
Any other suggestions or ideas on what happened..

Can you generate script for a maintenance plan?
I know how to script a job, I was wondering about a plan.
If not, whats the best way to record the configuration?
Thanks

hi everyone..
this is a little bit weird ..
i am trying to make a backup strategy. i am using sql2005.
when i go to maintenance plan. right click >> new maintenance plan...
nothing happens..
if i go with the maintenance plan wizard everything goes normally.
after doing the backup, if i right click on it and press
modify , nothing happens too.
what i mean by nothing happens is that it doesn't open the "design view".
the back up is doing normally.. but i need to set a range of 5 days before overwriting the oldest backup.
any idea what is going on or what am i missing?!
thank you
Windows Server 2003R2 w/ Sp2
SQL 2005 w/ Sp2
Created weekly (full backup) and a daily (differential backup) Maintenance Plans using the wizard. I formatted the server, installed the OS and SQL. Restored the full backup (No Recovery Mode), then restored the differential backup (Recovery Mode), tested and all worked well.
Then I noticed the original Maintenace Plans I created (Full and Differential) were gone; makes sense as I had formatted the server.
Is there a way to create a Maintenance Plan file or script that I can save and just add back to the server??
Hope that makes sense.
Any help appreciated.

Hello 2 all,
Could someone advise and/or correct me with my thoughts on how I would do my db maintenance plans?
(db's on SQL2000 as 'full' model)
Backups:
1) Daily Transaction log backups scheduled frequently enough.
2) Full Backup scheduled daily. Good way to start I presume ;)
Maintenance: Would be scheduled daily if possible, on non-production hours and if not colliding with daily full BU schedule.
3) Full DB reorg data&indexes.
4) Update Query Optimizer Stats (although 'Auto Update Stats' is on)
5) Shrink the logfile (ldf) as I presume this will have grown due to previous maintenance jobs.
6) If 5 ok, alter ldf filesize back to new allocated size.
Rgds,
T.
Hi
As per my backup policy I need to do a full backup dialy & transactional backup every 30 minutes , can i use the Maintenance plan to do this
or should I write T-sql statements & create jobs.....
I mean whats the difference between the two methods.
Thanks
Hi folks.
Our products are VB6-based interacting with MSDE2000 i.e. none of our clients have EM. We have auto-backups performed twice a day by default and we encourage people to keep it to a least 2 per day.
Yesterday, one of our clients reported a problem. Upon investigation, I did a DBCC CheckDB WITH ALL_ERRORMSGS which returned the following:
Object ID 1461580245, forward row page (1:159), slot 50 points to page (1:234), slot 43. Did not encounter forward row. Possible allocation error.
So after reading a lot of posts and blogs from Paul Randal, I proceeded cautiously to copy the DB then perform a DBCC CheckDB REPAIR_REBUILD which had no effect, then a DBCC CheckDB REPAIR_ALLOW_DATA_LOSS which also had no effect. Then, I determined which table was at fault via DBCC CheckTable and I exported its data to a blank table where I discovered the missing data row and corrected for it manually. End of story.
Not a funny situation. The worst part is that this defect may have been there for a very long time, meaning that restoring the latest backup would not have helped the situation. I now realize that relying on backups alone is a huge no-no.
So, having been scarred into reality, I would like to install an automated maintenance plan. I'm used to doing it on my personal station using EM but, as stated above, I can't do that for the clientele. I was thinking about simply shrinking the databases and then doing a DBCC CheckDB WITH ALL_ERRORMSGS on all of them before performing a backup. Would this be a complete enough procedure or should I be doing something else? My understanding is that this will verify index structure and data integrity, and not attempt to repair anything which is uncovered.
Any thoughts of wisdom would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Hello everyone!
I was wondering if there were any best practices for creating maintenance plans?
Im just getting started into the DBA world and have been delegated the task of creating maintenance plans for our 8 SQL servers.
Right now, our backup policy is Fulls on Saturday, differentials Monday-Friday.
Also, since im new, if you defragment the database and rebuild the index, does that have the possibility of "breaking" anything?
Just looking for some good articles, or anything to get me started on best practices.
Much appreciated.
