Server Scheduled Events?!
Apr 29, 2004
I am not sure if I have posted something about this, but I can't believe there is not a single person out there that is using a procedure written in SQL in order to schedule sending of an email, if data hasn't been submitted.
I have had some hits and some help from some people but I am pretty much still stuck.
How is everybody else doing these sorts of thing,scheduling an email to be sent to a user if he/she hasn't submitted data,somebody must be doing it?
A sample, help ,anything???

Hello experts. I have been searching for anything about this but found very little. What are the events logged in SQL Server Error Logs aside from Successful/Failed Login, Backup/Restore/Recover database and, start/init sql server? Can we configure this to log other events, like CREATE or DBCC events for example? If so, how? Thanks a lot.

I am using this code for LongRunning Queries.
CREATE EVENT SESSION LongRunningQuery
ON SERVER
ADD EVENT sqlserver.sql_statement_completed
(
ACTION (sqlserver.sql_text, sqlserver.tsql_stack)
WHERE sqlserver.sql_statement_completed.duration > 60000
[Code] ...
Here Instead of writing to XML file how can send an EMAIL if a query runs more than 1 minute in my server ?

i have my SQL server 2005 crashing when Events log is full
I have a hacker attacking my DB with a brut force tool but whereas he does not have the password, event log registers his access attempts as Failure Audit.
I have thousands of lines of "Failure Audit" in my event log
The event logs are set to be overwritten automatically when they reach 16Mb but it's not working correctly, they r not overwriting their content.
in SQL 2005 ERRORLOG file i see:
2007-05-14 01:57:11.57 spid80 Error: 17054, Severity: 16, State: 1.
2007-05-14 01:57:11.57 spid80 The current event was not reported to the Windows Events log. Operating system error = 1502(The event log file is full.). You may need to clear the Windows Events log if it is full.
SQL Agent cannot starts because it's not able to write in the event log that it's starting and when it cannot write in event log, it does not start and my sql server crashed
My Question is simply how to fix this issue once for all

I have been tasked with auditing all DDL and selected DML events on a production server and logging them to a table. My solution is to use CDC for the DML and a Server-Level trigger for the DDL. Because there should never but much DDL activity on the server (except when performing update tasks) I don't need to worry about the trigger consuming too many resources.
My question is this: Is there any single specification such as DDL_LEVEL_EVENTS that can capture all DDL activity or do I need to specify each and every DDL action in the trigger?

Hello Everyone,
I am backing up my all the databases (around 50 servers and 500 database) using scheduled jobs. I backup my transaction log files at every two hours of interval and databases on daily basis.
I have set option of "Write to Windows Application Event Log" - When job fails during the creation of job in the "Notification Tab" of Create New Job.
As per documentation SQL server automatically records some of the events to windows application event log. After succesful completion of Log backup and DB backup, event gets logged in Windows Application Event Log. And when job fails, I get two events logged in the Windows Application Event Log file, one due to my setting and other automatically by SQL Server.
Due to this Windows event log file is growing much faster and I have to clear it in every 3-4 days.
My quesiton - Is there a way such that to get only failures event logged in Windows Application event log file and any successful backup jobs should not go to Windows application event file?
Can any suggest some idea what should I do?
I am using SQL Server 2000 with SP3 on Windows 2000 Advanced server. Some of my databases are still using Version 7.0/6.5 on NT.
Thanks.

I use this code in a utility procedure (for performance testing) but it is really slow.
For example, a session with three events is taking 5 seconds to complete this query:
DECLARE @xml xml=
(
SELECT CAST(xet.target_data AS xml)
FROM sys.dm_xe_session_targets AS xet
JOIN sys.dm_xe_sessions AS xe
ON (xe.address = xet.event_session_address)
WHERE xe.name = @name
);
with data as
(
select
convert(varchar(128),convert(varbinary(128),'0x'+n.value('(action[@name="context_info"]/value/text())[1]','varchar(128)'),1)) context
, n.value('(data[@name="duration"]/value/text())[1]','int')/1000.0 duration
, n.value('(data[@name="cpu_time"]/value/text())[1]','bigint')/1000.0 cpu_time
, n.value('(data[@name="physical_reads"]/value/text())[1]','bigint') physical_reads
[code].....
So, I was wondering (considering the buffer is usually only holding a few hundred events)
1. Is this the wrong way to query data from a ring buffer?
2. Is there any way to make this code quicker?
3. Is it better to target a file store rather than a ring buffer for this?
select geometry::STGeomFromWKB(0x0106000000020000000103000000010000000B0000001000000000000840000000000000003D

I am wanting to get/filter on all queries and procs that take longer than 2 seconds to run (I'll balance real values later) but I'm not sure which Action out of the XE that I need.
I am using SQL Server 2014 and thought I had used sqlserver.sql_statement_completed.duration > 2000 in a previous version.

I am trying to use xquery to get event data back from extended events. I am trying to use some sample data from Grant Fritchey but I am getting null records back. Below is the xml - I just want to retrieve a distinct list of the client_hostname and client_app_name.
<event name="login" package="sqlserver" timestamp="2014-02-19T23:53:54.299Z">

</data><data name="packet_size"><value>8000</value></data><data name="options">
[Code] ....
The query I have that doesn't work is :
WITH xEvents AS
(SELECT object_name AS xEventName,
CAST (event_data AS xml) AS xEventData
FROM sys.fn_xe_file_target_read_file
('C:LoginTraceShared_0*.xel', NULL, NULL, NULL))
SELECT distinct top 1000 xEventName,
xEventData.value('(/event/data[@action_name=''Client_APP_Name'']/value)[1]','varchar') Client_APP_Name,
xEventData.value('(/event/data[@action_name=''Client_Host_Name'']/value)[1]','varchar') Client_Host_Name

I know very little about Extended Events, but I know it is supposed to be more powerful than Profiler. The SQL Instance involved is 2008R2. I was asked whether we could capture when a stored proc was called with a certain parameter. So for example, if dbo.usp_mystoredproc is called and is passed a value of '12345a' for @customer, can that be captured? I would want to know the time it was called, the parameter and parameter value. Probably would be interested in the SPID or LoginName as well.

I need to find any stored procedures that have not been used over a certain time period.
I have set up an extended events session to gather sp_statement_starting and _completed.
The trace returns the object_id's of many stored procedures. I then query the sys.procedures and plug in the object_id to return the stored proc name.
Do I have to repeat this process for every different object_id or is there a way I can query the trace results, using the object_id as my search criteria as one query ?

I am setting up extended events more or less just fine, however I am a bit confused as to how to read and load them into a table for querying. In particular the offset part - is there a way to load just a given dates worth in?
I've got the files configured to be 20MB before rolling over, the XE is running all the time.
So if i load in the full file now, say that covers 2.5 days worth, when I load it again tomorrow to get the updated data I'm also reloading today, which is a waste?
I presume I am going about this wrong, but lack an example that really goes into detail of practicalities of loading this data.

I would like to AUTOMATICALLY count the event for the month BEFORE today
and
count the events remaining in the month (including those for today).
I can count the events remaining in the month manually with this query (today being March 20):
SELECT Count(EventID) AS [Left for Month],
FROM RECalendar
WHERE
(EventTimeBegin >= DATEADD(DAY, 1, (CONVERT(char(10), GETDATE(), 101)))
AND EventTimeBegin < DATEADD(DAY, 12, (CONVERT(char(10), GETDATE(), 101))))
Could anyone provide me with the correct syntax to count the events for the current month before today
and
to count the events remaining in the month, including today.
Thank you for your assistance in advance.

Hi all,
I am using SQL Server 7.0 SP3. There is a scheduled job running daily. It was running fine but one day it didnt run and started running fine from next day. There was no error logs in NT log & SQL Server Error log. The reason why the scheduled job was not triggered is unknown. Anybody come across like this before? Can anyone tell me the reason why job didnt run.
Note: SQL Server Agent was running on that day too. So what could be the reason the job failed ?

Hello:
1) Is there a way to call a second task 'upon completion' of the first one. Or would I need to place the code of the second task in one task?
(This is v6.5) I guess the main purpose is to avoid conflict & see if one fails, the other may succeed, etc. I generally like to keep diff tasks separate, but one is dependent upon the completion of the other.
2) I want to restore a db, upon completion of the backup of another db. They are on separate servers, but i know i can use remote sp's.
Any advice, help, code, scripts, etc, would be appreciated. Thank you.

Ray writes "Hi,
I tried to ask the NT admin to login the SQL server and setup a scheduled job to "Shrink the db" for testing purpose.
I tried my ID even I'm not the NT admin, but setup as SQL server as sysadmin, setupadmin, processadmin.
Then the job start and got the error.
[298] SQLServer Error: 15404, Could not obtain information about Windows NT group/user 'DOMAINMYNAME', error code 0x5. [SQLSTATE 42000] (ConnIsLoginSysAdmin)
I have no idea why that happen to NT admin. then I check the Services for SQL Agent under the control panel- admin tools- services.
It shows using the LOCALSYSTEM as login for the SQL Agent service.
Any one have any idea. what security requirement to run a job other than use 'sa' account, since we are using on Windows authenciation mode only.
I must be something is missing? hope some experts here to answer my question.

I wonder if anyone can help.I have a scheduled job running overnight to delete old records for aparticular Db table.The table contains more than half million records and the scriptsimply uses the date field to delete any of the records which have adate older than 7 days. My guess is that there will be some 100,000records which need to be deleted.The job takes ages to run and whilst it is running sql server iscompletely locked and the associated website is effectively offlinebecause of it.I think I know where the problem lies but I don't know why.Whoever created the Db table created a varchar 255 field as theprimary key. The field is then filled with a string of 40 charactersgenerated within the webserver script to have a 'unique' string.Those are the facts. The following is my interpretation.I think the server is unable to cope with not only a character fieldas primary key but also one with so many characters in it. In such alarger table presumably in order to delete the old records it must dosome sort of ordered sort on the Primary Key and it is this that iscausing the problem.I would like to introduce a new field called 'id' make it autonumberedand primary and make the errant field non-primary.So my question is this:Is my analysis correct but more importantly, why? Can anyone give meclear reasoning for it.Also is the solution sound?Table looks like this:clientID intrefID varchar 255 Primary KeyfieldA varchar 512creationDate datetimefieldB varchar 255field C varchar 32Job script:delete from myTable where creationDate < [7daysAgo]Thanks in anticipationBill

i have a package scheduled in sql server.....
if i change something in the package and save the change...
will the scheduled job then reflect that change? or does the scheduled job have to be deleted and the package re-scheduled in order for the change to take affect?
(for example....i have a scheduled package which pulls some data from an oracle server and populates a sql server tabel. well....the oracle server has changed. so if i open my package and change the oracle server connection and save it, will the scheduled job have this change?)

This seems to ba a common problem, but none of the things I have tried seems to work.
I built a simple job in SSIS. It performs a select against an Oracle 10g db and returns the data to a table in SQL server 2005.
Job runs fine from BIDS but will not run when set up from SQL Server.Data from log:

Hi Guys,
Any assistance you people can provide will be considered grateful. I€™m in search of a generic cookie cutter snippet of code that simulates the creation of an Oracle DBMS_JOB, but I need it for SQL Server 2005.
Beneath, highlighted in red, is how we create a DBMS_JOB in Oracle, but I need the snippet of code to accomplish the same objective on SQL Server 2005. In Oracle, we deploy our scheduled jobs using anonymous pl/sql which is written in black, as shown beneath. To facilitate conversion of our project scheduled task it would be great if someone can assist me in translating the code beneath written in black and red.
REM spool schedule-jobs_a.sql.log
REM declare
REM jobno NUMBER;
REM cursor job_cur is select job from user_jobs
REM where what like 'dbms_utility.analyze_schema%';
REM begin
REM
REM for job_rec in job_cur loop
REM dbms_job.remove(job_rec.job);
REM
REM end loop;
REM dbms_job.submit(jobno,what => 'dbms_utility.analyze_schema(''&&anal'',''compute'');', interval => 'TO_DATE(SUBSTR(TO_CHAR(TRUNC(SYSDATE+1)),1,10)) + 360/1440', next_date => SYSDATE);
REM dbms_output.put_line( 'Next job '||jobno );
REM exception
REM when others then raise;
REM end;
REM /
PS, I€™m not looking for instructions to create a Scheduled Job through Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio, but rather, I need T-SQL code to create a Schedule Job to run daily at some period of time and run some snippet of code.
Thanks,
Vikram

I've tried finding an answer to this on this website but I don't see any. I'm running SQL Enterprise Manager v8.0 and have a job in the SQL server agent folder that won't run as scheduled nor will it run manually if I Right-Click and choose Start Job.
It's designed to run a DTS. I can run the DTS manually without errors but the job won't run it for me. I will try to provide as many details in this post as I can in hopes that someone who is more experienced at this can help me.
DTS DETAILS
The DTS is designed to transfer data from a table on one server and transfer it through a firewall to another server into a table on that server. Then delete the entries from the originating table. This works very well if I run it manually. The purpose of deleting entries from the web server is for security. Once the data in on the other side of the firewall it's safe.
The job however will not run either manually or from it's schedule. I've tried creating a new job and setting up a very simple schedule that runs daily every 2 minutes for example. I've played around with different times but no luck. So I will try and provide you with job details below:
JOB DETAILS
Name: TransferData
Enabled, Target = Local Server
Category: Uncategorized Local
Description: Execute package: TransferData

Step Name: TransferData
Type: Operating System Command

I only have two SQL books to reference. This is a production fire to put out and I really need the help here as I am not a certified SQL guru.
I hope I have provided enough information here for someone to help. I'm happy to provide an email address for easier contact should you request it.

Hi!
I just wonder if it is possible to run a scheduled task from a SQL Server 6.5 Client. Whenever I would try to run a scheduled task from a SQL Server Client a would get the error message that says "The SQLExecutive service is not currently running on server 'POFDS1099'. This prevents task 'ACORS2 FS90 People Pull' from being run", but when I would try to go the server itself, the service is runnning. Can anybody please tell me what could be the possible cause of this or perhaps 6.5 doesn't really support running scheduled task using SQL Server client. Thanks.
By the way, I also have SQL 2000 Client running on my local.
Thanks again,

I have a strange problem that I think deals with security on SQL 2005.I have a scheduled task that runs on a Windows 2000 machine. It callsa vb script which creates a connection to SQL Server.We migrated a database from SQL 2000 to 2005 which is on a differentbox. I changed the connection in the vb script to use the new sqlserver. The original connection to SQL 2000 used the 'sa' accountcoded into the connection string , which we don't want to use on thenew server, so I changed the connection string in the script to usethe below login information.Const strConnection = "Provider=SQLOLEDB;DataSource=SQLServer;Integrated Security=SSPI;Persist SecurityInfo=False;Initial Catalog=database;I created a domain user and gave it dbo rights on the new database onSQL 2005 as well as administrative rights on the local machine and thenetwork. The task runs fine for a while and then it will fail tostart. I have looked in the event log as well as the SQL log and havenot found anything else that ran when my task failed. Once it hasfailed, if I manually run the vb script on the 2000 machine, it runsjust fine, but the schedule won't work. If I change the name of theuser that is running the scheduled task, it will begin working again.I have run the profiler on SQL 2005 and watched the scheduled tasklogin as the correct user and update the database. There is nopattern to when the scheduled task will stop running. This has beenhappening for a few days now.This script and scheduled task worked fine for over a year on themachine when it logged into SQL 2000 and nothing else has changed,which makes me think it is related to the SQL 2005 server. Any ideas?

Ok, I thought this one would be easy.I have a stored proc: master.dbo.restore_database_fooThis is on database server B.Database server A backs up database foo on a daily basis as a scheduledtask.What I wanted to do was, at the end of the scheduled task is then call thestored proc on B and restore the database.If I go into Query Analyzer and log into database A, then execb.master.dbo.restore_database_foo works.But if I take the same command and make it part of the scheduled task itfails.Error is:OLE DB provider 'SQLOLEDB' reported an error. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 7399)[SQLSTATE 01000] (Error 7312). The step failed.To me this seems like a permissions issue, but nothing I've tried seems tohave helped.Suggestions?----Greg D.

HELP! I have been banging my head against a brick wall on this one all this morning AAAAAAGGGHHH!
1. I have an SSIS package that runs a simple SQL script and then updates a few tables by downloading some XML of the web. It runs fine when I kick it off manually under SSMS.
2. I created a SQL Server Agent job to run it every day. This always fails. The error information in the log is useless ("Executed as user: domainuser. The package execution failed. The step failed." - I had already figured that out!). It fails almost straight away, and when I enable logging for the SSIS package, no info is ever logged (text file, windows event log, whatever).
3. Out of desperation I have changed Agent to run under the same domain user account that I created the package with. No use.
My questions:
1. How can I get more detailed logging from SQL Server Agent?
2 Any ideas about why it's failing in the first place.
Many thanks in advance.

Hi,
I have created a SSIS package and tested it in V.Stdio where it runs fine and uploads file on the remote server.
Now I have scheduled it to run as a job in SQL SERVER AGENT as JOB, but it fails when it comes to the upload task?
I am quite sure as it is something with FTP connection string or security, but can't figure it out.
I have simply added the IP/login/password in the connection manager for upload task.
Any help/ guidance would be great.
Thanks,
