Running Packages Through Sql Agent (best Practices)

Apr 5, 2007

Hi All

I have a meaty job that currently runs as a set of sql scripts under sql agent and I'm transferring this job to run as a SSIS package. I have managed to set it up so that it runs as a sql job (cheers guys!), and I'm watching the job run now, maxing out the CPU usage as it tries to run 10 different tasks at the same time . great stuff!

However, I've been thinking about how to view the progress of this job/package (the job only has one step; "run SSIS package"). With the current job as single scripts, in SQL agent you can view which step of the job you are at.... is it possible to somehow view which package task you're at (ideally with nice shiny yellow green and red updates like in debugging), or do you have to output each step result into a log file?

Oh, and another question! If i have a checkpoint in a package, and the package falls over, when the job is rerun through SQL agent, will it start at the checkpoint, or run from the start?

Thanks!

SQL Agent Job Fails Running SSIS Packages

Oct 16, 2006

I need some help from you on a problem with SQL Server Agent that I believe many of you have experienced. When searching on the web I find some loose answers, but it would not solve my problems. So here is my story.

1. I have created two SSIS packages, package 1 and package 2. Both packages have a Execute SQL Task making a select sql statement to a table, say Customer in AdventureWorks DB. Package1 also makes a Execute Pacakge Task to Package 2. Both packages have protectionlevel property set to EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey

2. Then I created two package configuration files per package, one indirect xml configuration and one xml configuration file. The former I created an environment variable called pack1, which was specifying the path and file name of second config file. Likewise, I did for package2. Maybe I could have reused thie first configuration file, but I am not sure since package1 calls package2.

3. Now I build and deploy my packages. Then I run my manifest file, going through the deployment wizard setting the necceccary properties like server name, user, password, I have also create the same environment variables on the deployment machine. I ensure that the package1 and package2 can be run under integration services (file system). And both package works. So far so good

4. Now I want to create a SQL server agent job that runs package1 and package2. Here I found an article that decribed How to Schedule and Run a SSIS package ( DTS ) Job in SQL Server 2005 http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/Schedule__Run__SSIS__DTS.asp

5. I created a job executor account and then Create SQL proxy account and associate proxy account with job executor account as described. I created a new ssis job, specifying type ssis integration services, run as proxy, setting package source to SSIS package store, naming the server and package name (package2).

6. Now, I try running job1 which runs package2. ANd it works. I was aware if I needed to give file permission on users (read and execute) on my dtsx/dtsconfig/log files. So far so good

7. Now, I try to run job test which runs package1 (which also runs package2). But now the job fails :-(. The job runs for some seconds, but fails. I have to say that I have some script tasks with message boxes inside!!! hope this doesn't matter. I have created all neccessary accounts, proxies, credentials and so on. here is the view history

Behavior Of Ssis Packages Running Under SSMS Manually Vs. Job Agent Automatically

Sep 5, 2007



I have a ssis package that has multiple large lookups without memory restriction. When running the package manually from SSMS on the same server it runs on when running automatically under the job agent, the package errors out when the server memory gets depleted by the loading of the large lookup reference data. One of the messages I get is
"An out-of-memory condition prevented the creation of the buffer object. "


Anyway, the package runs successfully when it runs automatically under the job agent.

I was curious as to why the above happens. Is that a bug or is the run time behavior different under these 2 environments by design.

Running A Large Number Of SSIS Packages (with Dtexec Utility) In Parallel From A SQL Server Agent Job Produces Errors

Jan 11, 2008

Hi,

I have stumbled on a problem with running a large number of SSIS packages in parallel, using the €śdtexec€? command from inside an SQL Server job.

I€™ve described the environment, the goal and the problem below. Sorry if it€™s a bit too long, but I tried to be as clear as possible.

The environment:
Windows Server 2003 Enterprise x64 Edition, SQL Server 2005 32bit Enterprise Edition SP2.

The goal:
We have a large number of text files that we€™re loading into a staging area of a data warehouse (based on SQL Server 2k5, as said above).

We have one €śmain€? SSIS package that takes a list of files to load from an XML file, loops through that list and for each file in the list starts an SSIS package by using €śdtexec€? command. The command is started asynchronously by using system.diagnostics.process.start() method. This means that a large number of SSIS packages are started in parallel. These packages perform the actual loading (with BULK insert).

I have successfully run the loading process from the command prompt (using the dtexec command to start the main package) a number of times.

In order to move the loading to a production environment and schedule it, we have set up an SQL Server Agent job. We€™ve created a proxy user with the necessary rights (the same user that runs the job from command prompt), created an the SQL Agent job (there is one step of type €ścmdexec€? that runs the €śmain€? SSIS package with the €śdtexec€? command).

If the input XML file for the main package contains a small number of files (for example 10), the SQL Server Agent job works fine €“ the SSIS packages are started in parallel and they finish work successfully.

The problem:
When the number of the concurrently started SSIS packages gets too big, the packages start to fail. When a large number of SSIS package executions are already taking place, the new dtexec commands fail after 0 seconds of work with an empty error message.

Please bear in mind that the same loading still works perfectly from command prompt on the same server with the same user. It only fails when run from the SQL Agent Job.

I€™ve tried to understand the limit, when do the packages start to fail, and I believe that the threshold is 80 parallel executions (I understand that it might not be desirable to start so many SSIS packages at once, but I€™d like to do it despite this).

Additional information:

The dtexec utility provides an error message where the package variables are shown and the fact that the package ran 0 seconds, but the €śMessage€? is empty (€śMessage: €ś).
Turning the logging on in all the packages does not provide an error message either, just a lot of run-time information.
The try-catch block around the process.start() script in the main package€™s script task also does not reveal any errors.
I€™ve increased the €śmax worker threads€? number for the cmdexec subsystem in the msdb.dbo.syssubsystems table to a safely high number and restarted the SQL Server, but this had no effect either.

The request:

Can anyone give ideas what could be the cause of the problem?
If you have any ideas about how to further debug the problem, they are also very welcome.
Thanks in advance!

Best Practices Question - How Do You Execute Multiple Packages?

Jan 26, 2006

I have 200+ plus packages that need to be flexible in how they are run. For example, an end user may choose to run packages 1,2,3 and the next end user may choose to run packages 2,3,7, etc. Prior ro running a package, I set an "instance id" inside the group of packages so I can tie them all together in the logfile - I know that packages 1,2,3 were all run as group and that's distinct from packages 2,3,7 that were run in a differnt group.

Initially I embarked on a scenario where I had a queue table that loaded up the packages to be run and then had a little c# app that read the queue, generated the "instance id" and ran all the packages (either thru dtexec.exe or the Microsoft.SqlServer.DTS.Runtime). But now I wonder if using a master package that uses the Execute Package Task is the way to go. My 200+ packages are all independent and run based on a single config file and it seems as though going the parent package route will destroy some of that independence because I'll now be relying on parent package variables.

Any comments or suggestions?

Execute Sql Server Agent Job Task - Job Immediately Returns Success... However Agent Job Is Still Running???

Nov 30, 2006

when I run a package from a command window using dtexec, the job immediately says success.
DTExec: The package execution returned DTSER_SUCCESS (0).
Started: 3:37:41 PM
Finished: 3:37:43 PM
Elapsed: 2.719 seconds



However the Job is still in th agent and the status is executing. The implications of this are not good. Is this how the sql server agent job task is supposed to work by design.



Thanks,

Running EXEs On Prod SQL Box Through Execute Process Task - Best Practices

Apr 8, 2008



Hi All,


We're trying to run an EXE from SSIS through "Execute Process" task.

The EXE folder contains other DLLs as well.

The EXE interacts with the database and reporting services and sends some e-mails(max 500 a day) out to customers.

My question is:
Is it ok to run this kind of EXE on the production SQL box?
If not, why?
(People argue that running EXEs is not advisable on production boxes)

Q: Why did Microsoft introduce "Execute Process" task when we cannot run EXEs on the production box?

If somebody can educate whether it's ok to run such EXEs on prod SQLs.

In either case, some explanation is greatly appreciated.


Thanks,
Siva.

SQL Agent Jobs Hung - SSIS Packages

Jun 26, 2007



I'm having an issue in SQL Server 2005 with jobs that execute SSIS packages. The jobs run fine for a week or so, then I'll come to find that four or five (of the ten or so jobs) are hung in "executing" status. They seem to hang indefinitely (as some have been "executing" for hours with no end. The schedules of the hung jobs are all different, varying from every 10 minutes to nightly. The packages perform completely diffent tasks, as well. I can't seem to find any common thread with the jobs that get hung, other than they are all executing SSIS packages.



I've tried manually stopping the jobs and restarting the agent and SQL Server but the jobs hang again on there next scheduled run. The only thing that fixes the issue is rebooting the box, and then the jobs hang again in a week or so. Could some sort of memory leak be consuming resources throughout the week and be causing the jobs to eventually hang? I just rebooted the box and the sqlagent90.exe process is currently using about 7mb of memory. I'll keep an eye on it. Any other suggestions?



I've thought of creating another job that stops jobs that are hung, but what's to say that this job won't get hung as well? Plus this seems like a band-aid fix...



I don't recall having these problems until installing SQL Server 2005 SP2. Could this be related? I've searched like crazy and still can't find a resolution to this. It's becoming a big PITA...



Anyway, any suggestions would be very much appreciated!

Using Proxy Accounts To Run SSIS Packages By SQL Agent

Feb 13, 2008



Hello!

I have SSIS Package that needs special permissions in network. I want to schedule SSIS running using SQL Agent. I don't want to other Jobs starts with special permissions. So, I decided to use proxy account to impersonate SSIS starting process by account with those permissions. I've perfomed following steps:
1. Create Login for the future proxy account and add it to sysadmins role.
2. Create Credential with account name and password information.
3. Create proxy account and give to it rights to run SSIS, CmdExec and ActiveX create.
4. Set Run as for step that starts my package to this proxy
5. Start my job.
and I receive error "Process couldnot be created for step 1 job xxx. Reason: 1314"
SQL Agent account and proxy accounts has also administrators rights on SQL Server computer and rights to login as service.
When I change step configuration to run as SQL Agent account job completes succesfull.
What do I do wrong?

Thx,
Olga

Delay In Running The Sub-packages

Mar 29, 2007

Hi,
when call a sub-package from the parent package with the executeoutofprocess=true I have about 5-10 sec delay before sub-package starts running. ( this is a big delay for me as the sub_package is in a foreach loop)

the sub_package itself it's very simple and contains just one script task with a small script in in it.
even if this delay is for validation I still can't understand why it is taking 5-10 ses.

Hi everybody,

I have to create a package that executes other packages I've already created... Every one of these packages run with the same Configuration File, but if I try to execute the main one, including the path of the file, I get errors from the other packages because they can't find it... How can I manage to pass this file and its content to the other packages??



Here a little explanation of te process:

Main Package needs configuration file X.dtsConfig, and calls: package1, which needs configuration file X.dtsConfig; package2, .......

Long Running Packages

Dec 21, 2006

I need to execute a long running package (it takes about 16 hours to finish) to load a data warehouse for the first time with all historical data. This package it's a master package and execute other packages; I log the start time and the finish time of the package in a table to manage future incremental loads.

I executed the package on sql server where it is saved, but after 8 hours it was running, a new package was started automatically. Then two more packages started .. each every two hours.

I set the MaxConcorrentExecutable = 4, this could affect this strange behavoir ?

Anyone could imagine wath happened ?

Running Packages In A Job PROBLEMS!!!

Nov 7, 2007

Before I decided to post this thread, I searched the forum and saw that I'm not the only one going crazy with running SSIS packages in a job agent.

My problem is that i have a dts package that runs on sql01inst01 without any issues but the same package when i try to run it from sql02inst02 just hangs ... digging deeper i found that - when i try to parse a query / build query / try giving parameters in a Execute SQL task it says

Missing Log Output Section For SSIS Packages In The SQL Agent Job Properties

May 6, 2008



Hi All,

I have a requirement of logging the failure and the error of a job executing a SSIS package to text file.
However, when I go to job step -> Advanced, in the section "SQL Server
Integration Services Package" where that info to setup logging is, it
is blank and just says:

"There are no options for this command type"

Any ideas?

I thought that this might not be supported in Standard Edition as I am running standard edition. Then I checked on two other servers, where I have Enterprise edition with SP2. On one of the installations, I am able to give the log file, the other one still shows,

"There are no options for this command type"

What is the problem? Both of them I am using the sysadmin role account. I have proxy account created on both the SQL instances. I don't think this is the problem, but still I checked this.

Can anybody help me?

Regards,
Virendra

Is SQL Agent Running?

Apr 24, 2008

Hello everyone,
I recently ran across with a request to check if the SQL Server Agent is running on all the servers, I immediately thought about implementing that with SSIS, since I've accomplished such repetitive task before with using SSIS.
However, I'm unsure on how to do it, my first approach was creating a script that would create a table with all services running on the machine using the DOS "SC" command, now, I don't think that's going to do what I need, since it'll only give me a list with all the services installed on the machine, but there isn't a way to throw a where clause since I get a list of services and its attributes on a single field (See below).

I was wondering if anyone has ran across such request or if anyone has any ideas or suggestions.

This is what I get on my table in a single field when I run the SC command into a # table.


SERVICE_NAME: SQLSERVERAGENT
DISPLAY_NAME: SQLSERVERAGENT
TYPE : 10 WIN32_OWN_PROCESS
STATE : 4 RUNNING
(STOPPABLE, NOT_PAUSABLE, ACCEPTS_SHUTDOWN)
WIN32_EXIT_CODE : 0 (0x0)
SERVICE_EXIT_CODE : 0 (0x0)
CHECKPOINT : 0x0
WAIT_HINT : 0x0


Thanks,

One thing to keep in mind, I have both, 2000 and 2005 servers on my environment. *

SSIS Running Packages NOT Being Displayed

Sep 5, 2006

When I run an SSIS package from the MSDB in SQL Server Management Studio it never shows up under 'Running Packages'.

I have confirmed that the package is indeed running.

I've also tried to check the packages running on the server programatically by using the GetRunningPackages() method. This too returns nothing when clearly packages are running.

Any ideas?

Regarding Running Batch Files And Different Packages

I have created a master controller package which runs as follows

deletes all the log files -> deletes few flat files on different drives -> preprocess task(execute package task) -> c# executable (execute process tasks) -> postprocess tasks (execute package tasks)

i need a create a task just before the preprocess task with an user input asking whether he wants to run a particular batch file before proceeding to preprocess. if the user says yes it should run a batch file followed by preprocess tasks, c# and post process or else it should directly goto preprocess, c# and post process (neglecting batch file task)

can anyone help me how to do it.

Xp_cmdshell Running As A Sql Agent Job

Feb 9, 2007

I have created a job that runs this code:

exec master..xp_cmdshell 'D:Trace_outputAuto_perfmonAutoperfmon.bat'

This runs fine as long as I place the counter.txt file in the windowssystem32 dir.

The bat file has this code:


typeperf -cf counter.txt -o D:Trace_outputAuto_perfMonautoperf

This starts without any issues and i see typeperf.exe in the taskmanger.

The question i have is how can i stop this without having to go into taskmanager and killing typeperf.exe?

thanks for your time

SQL Server AGENT - Job Is Not Running??

Jan 10, 2006

It is SQL server 7. Scheduled jobs were running fine until the hard drive crasked. Replace the hard drive and restored the dabases. However, all the scheduled jobs cannot run. I created new jobs using database maintenance plan and it still doesn't work. the same error occurs when viewing the Job history.

sqlmaint.exe failed. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 22029). The step failed.


However, if I create a job by right click on the database and select backup database. This job runs fine.

What should I do to make jobs created by the database maintenance plan running again?

Thank you for your help.

Hello, I am having a problem with my sql server agent service not working. I have done some research from earlier postings and still having no luck with getting it up and running.

Problem:
"Could not start the SQLSEVERAGENT service on local computer. could be an internal Windows errow or service error.

2006-05-09 14:23:55 - ? [098] SQLServerAgent terminated (normally)

I have reset the password for the 'sa' account and running it and got error: Error 18456: login failed for user Specify a different account to be used.
But when I try it only provides me with the 'sa' account.

My primary goal is to run some DMP ion the databases that I have on the server.

Any help would be appreciated.
