Deadlocks And Parallel Query Processing

Dec 9, 2005

SQL Server 2000 SP3ALast week one of our processes starting issuing or suffering deadlockdetected errors every 15 minutes or so.I have read several articles at MS on the subject. I set a couple ofstartup parameters related to producing deadlock detection informationand ran SQL Profiler. I found the SQL statements being issued by thedeadlocked statements. In every deadlock the same UPDATE statementappears however the data values being searched on are different. Thebest I can tell from trying to query the actual data each update hitsonly one or very few rows. No indexed column is updated so the indexesshould not be the source of conflict.Looking at the query I noticed that the query does not have anavailable index and Query Analyzer shows that the full table scan isbeing done in parallel.My question: Does SQL Server change or modify its locking rules whenqueries are converted to be ran using parallel processing? If so, doyou have a reference?Here is the deadlock entries posted to the error log:SPID=167ResType:LockOwner Stype:'OR' Mode: IX SPID:63 ECID:0 Ec:(0x65971510)Value:0x3c577e60 Cost:(0/0)Input Buf: Language Event: UPDATE Station_Upload setStation_Accept_Status = 'ACC',HeadStatus ='ACC',LastProcessedSta='110',HeadPartType='1' WHERE Part_Serial_No ='SCH1119323' AND Station = 'H110'SPID=63ResType:LockOwner Stype:'OR' Mode: IX SPID:167 ECID:0 Ec:(0x65801510)Value:0x3c27d060 Cost:(0/0)Input Buf: Language Event: UPDATE Station_Upload setStation_Accept_Status = 'ACC',HeadStatus ='ACC',LastProcessedSta='70',HeadPartType='1' WHERE Part_Serial_No ='SCH1119060' AND Station = 'H070'I have suggested adding an index to support the query.Any ideas?Thanks -- Mark D Powell --

DTS PROCESSING

Aug 3, 2001

I have a DTS that imports data from an orcle database into SQL Server.
Doesn't the processing mostly occur on the SQL Server, not on the
oracle database from which the data is being imported?
The oracle database is vendor provieded and they are saying
our SQL Server DTS package is killing their server.
Any insight is appreciated.
Thanks

XML Processing

Mar 27, 2008

Hey All,

I've got a process that creates records in my database based on XML input that I've gotten. What I am doing it giving this XML to a stored procedure to handle a specific task, then modify the XML and send it to the next stored procedure.

For instance, the XML could hold header records with detail records, I would first send the XML to a stored procedure that creates the header records, then updates the XML so the XML now knows the identity values of the header records I have just created, and then send the XML to the next stored procedure to create the details for those headers.

All works great and fine, but I have a problem with writing the identity values back to the XML. It seems I can only change one item in the XML at a time and thus need to loop this. For many records this really takes a long time.

Here is some sample code of what I'm doing (please excuse any typos, this is a simplified version of the code) :

declare @lvSeq numeric(15)
declare @lvRowNo int
declare @lvNumRows int

insert into myHeaderTable (
recid, recdesc
) select
ref.value('@recid', 'nvarchar(25)') recid,
ref.value('@recdesc', 'nvarchar(250)') recdesc
from @pXML.nodes('//headers/header') R(ref)

select @lvRowNo=1, @lvNumRows = @pXML.value('count(//headers/header)', 'int')
while (@lvRowNo<=@lvNnumRows) begin
select @lvSeq = recseq
from myHeaderTable
where recid = @pXML.value('//headers/header[position()=sql:variable("@lvRowNo")]/@recid)

set @pXML.modify('replace value of (//headers/header[position()=sql:variable("@lvRowNo")]/@recseq with sql:variable("@lvSeq")')

select @lvRowNo=@lvRowNo+1
end


Obviously I am looking for a better way to update the XML with the sequences. The insert takes a second, the loop takes minutes with large XML sets. I guess MSSQL is searching the whole XML to find the item to update.

It would be nice if I didn't have to loop through the XML. One solution I was thinking off is to store the XML in a temporary table with a single record per header item. Then I could do the modify in one go and recreate the XML by simply selecting the contents of the temporary tabel. I have no idea if this is possible.

So something like this:

select
ref.value('@recid','nvarchar(25)') recid,
ref.value('.','XML') XMLData -- this gives an error
into #TMP_XML
from @pXML.nodes('//headers/header') R(ref)

insert into myHeaderTable (
recid, recdesc
) select
recid,
ref.value('@recdesc', 'nvarchar(250)') recdesc
from #TMP_XML CROSS APPLY XMLData.nodes('/header') R(ref)

update #TMP_XML
set XMLData.modify('replace ....')
from myheadertable
where #TMP_XML.recid = myheadertable.recid

-- recreate XML here, not sure how....

Row Vs Column Processing Help!!

Hello friends,
I needed a suggestion, I am currently working on a reporting website that generates reports and i need to store all the reports in the database.

I usually go by row wise processing as it can be easily controlled but the problem is there will be a lot of reports, that is an estimation of 30,000 rows in a month and i m not sure if sql server can hold more than 2 billion rows per table.

Please Help!!

Regarding Records Processing???

Mar 1, 2006

Hi…all

I will just explain whole scenario what I m facing in tricky problem..

We have xml files coming at regular interval by some other source into sql server 2000…daily having records near @10000 to 70000…we have job scheduled to run it regular interval…we doing this by some filter criteria… suppose the flow is like staging table into secondary table and then final into primary table….
We design DTS package accordingly means take the records from staging table put into secondary table and then into primary table…(near @ 8 task involved in it…)
Suppose xml file came at 8:30 am and our DTS package will run at 9:00 am…and then 11:00 am and the 1:00 pm like that….what I observing from many days is that after running job at 9:00 am successfully some good data still pending in secondary table not processed into primary table. But when again job ran at 11:00 am it processed that pending good records into primary table…some times when I ran this job manually through DTS design level the good data that pending in secondary table processed!!!

My question is that why this job not processed all the good records in single shot????

Processing Dataset As A Whole, And Not Per Row

Sep 20, 2007

Which component should be used to process dataset as a whole, and not on per row basis? I have need to process dataset conditionally (condition based on dataset), e.g. if a special row is present in dataset than dataset should be processed in a special way. Should I maybe use one Script Transformation to determine if dataset satisfies condition (and store that result into a variable), and then based on that condition (variable value) perform or not processing (using Conditional Split and Script Transformation)?

Need Help With Row By Row Processing In SSIS

Feb 28, 2007

Hello all,

I am having trouble trying to construct the following process in SSIS/SQL
2005:

1. Grab a set of unprocessed rows (ProcessDT = null) in an 'Action' table
2. For each of these rows, execute multiple stored procedures base on the
action type
If actiontype = 1, exec spAct1a @param1, @parm2
exec spAct1b @param1, @parm2, @param3, @param4
If actiontype = 2, exec spAct2a @param1, @parm2, @param3
exec spAct2b @param1, @parm2, @param3
etc....
3. Update ProcessDT so it's not processed again
4. Repeat until all rows are processed

Note - all sp params are contained in additional columns in the Action
table. Basically the Action table is a store for post-event processing of
sorts
but is order dependent, hence the row by row processing. And some of my
servers are 2000 so Service Broker is not an option (yet).

I first attempted to do this totally within the control flow - using an ado
recordset/foreach loop control, but I could not figure out how to run
conditional
process paths based on the ActionTypeID. I then tried to do this within the
dataflow using on OLEDB data source, a conditional split, and an oledb
command control
which almost got me there - the problem being for each row I need to execute
multiple sp's and it appears as if the oledb command only gives me one sp.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Processing One Row At A Time

Jul 11, 2007

I'm populating a new table based on information in an existing table. The new table is a list of all "items" and contains a primary key. The old table is a database of receipts where items can appear many times in any order.



I have put together the off-the-shelf components to do this, using a lookup transformation to see if the item is already in the new table. Problem is, because there's so much repetition in the old table I need to process the old table one row at a time. Batch processing is generating errors because the lookup doesn't detect duplicates within the buffer.



I tried setting the "DefaultBufferMaxRows" property of the task to 1, but that doesn't seem to have any effect.



To get the data from the old table, I'm using an OLE DB source. To get the data into the new table, I'm using the OLE DB Command transformation with parameters to execute an INSERT statement.



This is a job I have to do exactly once, so I don't care if I have to run it overnight. I'd rather have a simple, easy to understand but inefficient script so I understand what it's doing completely.



Any help on forcing SSIS to process one row at a time?

Processing Time

Sep 25, 2007

Hi,



I am verifying my reports processing time. I get the information from the Reporting Service DB - [ExecutionLogs] table. I have the following information:



[TimeEnd] €“ time that reports generation ends.

[TimeStart] - time that reports generation starts.

[TimeDataRetrieval] - amount of time spent running the data sources.

[TimeProcessing] - time spent processing the report.

[TimeRendering] - time spent generating the output format.



If this information is correct the following statement should be true:



([TimeEnd] - [TimeStart]) = ([TimeDataRetrieval] + [TimeProcessing] + [TimeRendering])



But it isn't, ([TimeEnd] - [TimeStart]) is always bigger then ([TimeDataRetrieval] + [TimeProcessing] + [TimeRendering]).



Why does this happen?



Regards,


Rodrigo

AS Processing Task

Nov 27, 2005

When using the AS processing task with a connection to "an Analysis Services project in this solution", only some processing options are available for processing dimensions. For instance, it is not possible to select "Process Update". Once I change the connection manager to point to the deployed cube database, I can choose from all the options. Is this by design?

Lot And Fifo Processing In Sql

Feb 12, 2008

I need help from sql experts for the following problem

DOCTYPE DATE QTY PRD LOT
Purchase 1 jan 20+ AA 2007FW
Purchase 4 jan 50+ AA 2007SS
Purchase 9 jan 10+ AA 2007FW
Sale 3 jan 10- AA
Sale 4 jan 20- AA
Returned Good 4 feb 10 AA


As you can see I don't have the LOT code in sales records, so I must update these records with the following logic:

I have to assign LOT code to sales in FIFO order:
from the table above the 3rd of January I find the first sale of 10, take the first LOT (ascending date order), check for qty on hand (20+), consume 10 from LOT (10 remaining), update sale record with 2007FW LOT code.

Then I find next sale of 20, as before I take the first LOT with qty on hand to consume, again it's the first record with only 10 remaining so I set LOT qty on hand to zero but I have 10 more to allocate to a LOT code. So I find next available LOT of 50 and consume 10, with 40 remaining.

It's important to remember that I can sell part of a "lot", have to track the remaining goods per LOT

Is it possible in SQL to do that in batch mode? How? If I have to split sale record consuming 2 or more LOTS, how can I do? Can you show me SQL or good hints?

Thanx in advance

Cube Processing

May 22, 2008



Hi All,

I have 3 cubes in a single SSAS database and these cubes should be processed using the following schedule

Cube 1 - Every Day
Cube 2 - Every Week
Cube 3 - Every Month
Cube 4 - Every Day

The issue that I face is that these cubes share the dimensions and so I cant do a FULL process of these SHARED Dimensions as it will affec other cubes.

I can expect additions and deletions to my dimension data , but the structure remains the same. It would be great if someone can suggest how to go about processing the dimensions. I am confused with the number of options(Process Incremental, Process Update etc.,) available for processing the dimensions.

I will creating a SSIS package to automate the processing. One more question is say, if Cube 2 fails during a day and Cube 1 has succesfully processed on the same day earlier, how do I revert back to the old state of Cube 2? Does this mean that I need to do a back up of the SSAS database before processing each cube?

Apologies if I had missed anything.

Thanks!

Availability During ETL Processing

Dec 5, 2006

Hi,

I am in the midst of designing a new Data Warehouse system. As we get further into the design of the system, the more we are realising how complex our ETL is going to be and that the amount of time it will take to run could be significant i.e. a few days! My question is obviously I don't want to have a down time in my relational system for this long and prevent my users from accessing the data for days at a time each month. So what functionality should I be looking at to allow me to maintain a working copy of the data that users can query whilst I perform database updates and then perform a quick promotion of the updated data to users for querying?

If you can point me in the direction of the right functionality in SQL Server 2005 and possible some relevant white papers that cover this sort of scenario I would be grateful.

regards

Colin

Hi.

I have a trigger that fires for any updates/deletes/adds and logs information via a sp call.

If I have more than one record, is there a better way to process them other than using a cursor ?

Yes, they have to be processed through the sp.

Delays Processing Queries

Dec 28, 2001

I've noticed lately that my queries through ADO/VB are taking alot longer to process at certain times. The query and the result information never changes, only that at certain times the query takes alot longer than usual. I thought that I possibly need more licenses, or it might be network traffic. I currently use MS SQL Server 2000 small business Ed(5 Cals).

Has anyone any information about performance problems due to licensing issues?

Daily File Processing Help

Jan 9, 2004

Hello DBA's:

I need to extract a particular file from our AS 400 system on a daily basis and do some processing on it. Also I want to do the daily processing only on those records that have been added/updated since the initial load.
Here is the approach and possible implementation.

Approach
I have the DB2 source data containing 10 columns (Col1 to Col5 together form the key) and the rest are attributes. I am interested only in the key and two attributes. So I load my table with only Col1 to Col7 ( 5 for key and the two attributes). I then do my processing on this table.

Here is the implementation given by a member of dbforums -



You'll then have to deal with 3 potential actions,

INSERT: New records on the file.
DELETES: Records that don't exists.
UPDATES: Records that are on the file, but attributes have changed.


You had given me this code template.

CREATE TABLE myTable99 (
Col1 char(1)
, Col2 char(1)
, Col3 char(1)
, Col4 char(1)
, Col5 char(1)
, CONSTRAINT myTable99_pk PRIMARY KEY (Col1, Col2))

CREATE TABLE myTable00 (
Col1 char(1)
, Col2 char(1)
, Col3 char(1)
, Col4 char(1)
, Col5 char(1)
, CONSTRAINT myTable00_pk PRIMARY KEY (Col1, Col2))
GO

INSERT INTO myTable99(Col1,Col2,Col3,Col4,Col5)
SELECT '1','1','a','b','c' UNION ALL
SELECT '1','2','d','e','f' UNION ALL
SELECT '1','3','g','h','i' UNION ALL
SELECT '1','4','j','k','l'
--DELETED

INSERT INTO myTable00(Col1,Col2,Col3,Col4,Col5)
SELECT '1','1','a','b','c' UNION ALL--NO CHANGE
SELECT '1','2','x','y','z' UNION ALL-- UPDATE (My comment - Instead of an update I want to insert a new record)
SELECT '1','3','g','h','i' UNION ALL--NO CHANGE
SELECT '2','3','a','b','c'--INSERT
GO

SELECT * FROM myTable99
SELECT * FROM myTable00
GO

--DO DELETES FIRST (My comment - Before deleting, I want to copy the rows that I am going to delete on a separate table to maintain history. Then I want to delete from a). I don't get the logic. If the rows of the old extract are not in new extract then delete them. So shouldn't it be <> instead of =. why the where clause condition)
DELETE FROM a
FROM myTable99 a
LEFT JOIN myTable00 b
ON a.Col1 = b.Col1
AND a.Col2 = b.Col2
WHERE b.Col1 IS NULL AND b.Col2 IS NULL

-- INSERT (My comment - I don't get the logic of the where. If the rows of the old extract are not in new extract then delete them. So shouldn't it be <> instead of =)

INSERT INTO myTable99(Col1,Col2,Col3,Col4,Col5)
SELECT a.Col1, a.Col2, a.Col3, a.Col4, a.Col5
FROM myTable00 a
LEFT JOIN myTable99 b
ON a.Col1 = b.Col1
AND a.Col2 = b.Col2
WHERE b.Col1 IS NULL AND b.Col2 IS NULL

-- UPDATE

UPDATE a
SET Col3 = b.Col3
, Col4 = b.Col4
, Col5 = b.Col5
FROM myTable99 a
INNER JOIN myTable00 b
ON a.Col1 = b.Col1
AND a.Col2 = b.Col2
AND ( a.Col3 <> b.Col3
OR a.Col4 <> b.Col4
OR a.Col5 <> b.Col5)
GO
------------

Can anybody look at My comments and answer them or revise this code template if need be?

Brett Kaiser - I sent you an e-mail on this. Can you respond to it when time permits.

Thanks

For Each Loop And Processing Through DataFlow

May 2, 2008

Greetings!

I am painfully learning SSIS and just when I think I have a better understanding of how things work and go down the path that I should take, I hit a wall. Frankly, discouraging and demoralizing.

I am performing a Select of rows that are then passed on to a ForEachLoop with an ADO Enumerator with a FullResultSet.
Variable mappings for the columns used are:

Variable IndexAccountNumber 0
AccountName 1
AccountAddress 2
CountryCode 3

A ScriptTask in the foreach loop allows me to confirm that I am processing rows.

A DataFlow in the ForEachLoop has in it a DERIVED COLUMN item that allows me to assign the four variable fields above to their respective DERIVED COLUMN.

An attempt to use a Flat File Destination to process the derived columns is being made. As I monitor the execution of the package I notice the following message.

Information: 0x4004300B at Data Flow Task, DTS.Pipeline: "component "Flat File Destination" (382)" wrote 0 rows.

Can anyone PLEASE tell me why is it that I am able to see the data being processed through the script task? And yet not see any rows being written to the Flat file. Why?

Any information you may provide would be immensely appreciated.

Thank you and God Bless.

Suppose I have a table named Test (referred in the query below)

Category Indicators
ctgy1Y,,,,

ctgy3,Y,,Y,

and If I would like to transform this table to

Category Indicators
ctgy1Y
ctgy2Y
ctgy2Y
ctgy2Y
ctgy3Y
ctgy3Y

I am able to do it using the logic below

CREATE TABLE dbo.Numbers (Number INT IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED)
WHILE COALESCE(SCOPE_IDENTITY(), 0) < 5
BEGIN
INSERT dbo.Numbers DEFAULT VALUES
END

SELECT category,
SUBSTRING( Value, Number, CHARINDEX( ',', Value + ',', Number ) - Number ) as program
FROM Test
inner
JOIN Numbers
ON SUBSTRING( ',' + Value, Number, 1 ) = ','
and CHARINDEX( ',', Value+',', Number ) - Number <> 0
where Number <= Len(Value) + 1

But I would like to Transform this table into something like the one below (where if 'Y' before 1st comma then Q1, if 'Y' Before 2nd comma then Q2 and so on

Category Indicators
ctgy1Q1
ctgy2Q1
ctgy2Q2
ctgy2Q3
ctgy3Q2
ctgy3Q4

What is the best and efficient way to obtain this? Any help will be greatly helpful.
