Standard Packages - Where To Store? Hints Needed
Jul 25, 2006
Hi,
I would like to implement a kind of standard packages which can be used in all other processes and will be started using the variables.
But I do not know where to store these kind of packages in "best practise", because we
- would like to use them in Dev and in "Real" also without having to change something in the other processes
- we are storing the packages in the folders of the package store
and as far as I understood I would have to share the package store to all developers though that they would be able to do this?
Then I would better choose another folder with defined access rights I think...
Or would it be better to spend some time in developing a custom component?
But this component would work with recordsets rather than the standard data flow elemtents and therefor I would expect a leak of performance...
Or is it possible to do "trasnformation" from a packae to a custom component?
Thanks in advice!
cheers,
Markus

I have been tasked with upgrading around 150 SQL Server 2000 DTS packages to SSIS in SQL Server 2005 standard edition. I made a backup of the 2000 database upon which the DTS packages operate and restored it to the SQL 2005 server. So far, so good. I have the database in place. Now I need to get the DTS packages themselves into the SLQ 2005 server. I think I need to check my install and make sure that I have the SQL Server 2000 DTS services installed on the SQL 2005 server. I can do that.
However, I wonder what would be the most effective way to physically get the packages from the SQL 2000 server to the SQL 2005 server. Should I use structured storage files? If so, how do I go about opening them in SQL 2005 in order to save them to SQL server 2005?
I should mention that these packages make heavy use of ActiveX scripting so I am looking at rewriting them from scratch to be SSIS packages. I just need the packages on the SQL Server 2005 box so I can make sure I am creating exactly the same functionality in 2005 as existed in SQL server 2000. Each DTS 2000 individual package tends to be fairly simple and I think I can greatly improve the process by consolidating them.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

Hi group,
I don't know what I should try next, all of my tries have been without results in this case. I just wanted to create a temporary table, then insert one row into it and then use this row to compare if this row exists in another table or not. This is my script:
------------------------
CREATE PROCEDURE imp_Tippimport (@TGName char(33)) AS
BEGIN
CREATE TABLE #tTippgeber (
TGName2 char(33)
)
INSERT INTO #tTippgeber (TGName2)
VALUES (@TGName)
*** see below ***
IF NOT exists (select TGName FROM Tippgeber WHERE TGName = @TGName)
INSERT INTO Tippgeber SELECT TGName2 FROM #tTippgeber
/* SELECT * INTO Tippgeber FROM #tTippgeber */
ELSE
UPDATE Tippgeber SET
TGName = t.TGName2
FROM #tTippgeber AS t, Tippgeber
WHERE TGName = t.TGName2
END
GO
I also created a cursor and used a fetch in to a veriable in the line with the stars to see the value of TGName2 but it was NULL.
Any ideas ?!
Thanks for any help !!

Using DTS package in 2000 version, I am dumping TXT file contents into SQL Table,
I have one column having date in format YYYYMMDD(20070929) and corresponding column in SQL is datetime, but it fails on data type mismatch.
I have no choice of making date column in SQL to string or Varchar etc,
is there any way to make that date column in SQL to convert the value upon transformation from format (YYYYMMDD) to M/DD/YYYY (9/29/2007).
many many thanks,

I am kind of confused about the way SQL Server 2000 handles the hintsthat users supply with their SQL statements.[color=blue]>From BOL, it seems that one can specify them with "WITH (...)" clauses[/color]in SQL statements known as table hints. Sometimes, multiple uses ofthis form in a statement is OK. Then there is the OPTION clause forspecifying statement hints. However, the documentation on OPTIONsection discourages their use.Being relatively new to SQL Server and still learning about it, what isthe general practice? Use hints or not? And if so, how (through WITHor OPTION clauses)?Cheers!

My experience with query hints are that they are just that, a hint. What I don't understand is when does SQL decide to ignore your hint?

I am running SQL7 SP2 and and noticing table the query processor table scans when I ussue a between 'date1' and 'date2' instead of using the datetime index. If I put in the index hint (index = ix_datetimeXXXX) the query runs fine. My question is does this index hint restict the use of other indexes in the query and secondly how can I specify multiple index hints? Thanks in advance.

Hi
My VB.Net (with SQL Server backend) application currently allows more than one user to look at a particular record at the same time. This is not a problem unless both those users also try to update that record as well. One user's changes then overwrite the other's.
I've been reading up on locking hints but my database knowledge is a little scant and I'm also rather dense and need things spelling out for me!! So I have a few questions that I hope someone can help with:
If I add an updlock to my update SQL statement, this would allow both users to view the record but would only allow one user's changes through. Is that correct?
For the other user, would SQL Server return an error message that I can use to tell the user that their update has not worked?
Would I have to get my VB.NET application to re-get the record information so that the user who's update failed can see the changes made by the other user and reapply their own changes?
Does the updlock become unlocked once the record is updated or do I need to specifically unlock it somehow?
Thanks!

I am having problems with doing what seams to be a very easy query. For some reason the SQL Server is trying to do nested loops instead of hash join. I tried to force the use of the hash join using the join hint.
Query 1
select *
from DIM_DATE DD
inner hash join (
select A.student_key,
CONVERT(int, CONVERT(varchar, COALESCE (A.date_withdrawn, getdate()), 112)) AS date_withdrawn_current
FROM FACT_STUDENT AS A
) SSE on DD.date_key= date_withdrawn_current
This query gives an error:
Msg 8622, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Query processor could not produce a query plan because of the hints defined in this query. Resubmit the query without specifying any hints and without using SET FORCEPLAN
Second query is not really what I want but it illustrate that it works fine when getdate() is not used.
Query 2
select *
from DIM_DATE DD
inner hash join (
select A.student_key,
CONVERT(int, CONVERT(varchar, COALESCE (A.date_withdrawn, A.date_enrolled), 112)) AS date_withdrawn_current
FROM FACT_STUDENT AS A
) SSE on DD.date_key= date_withdrawn_current
Is there some problem with using function getdate() ? It works fine in SQL Server 2000
This problem occurs on the SQL Server 2005 SP2 ( 9.00.3050.00 (X64) )
and (9.00.2050)

I noticed that the online books say the following:
Note The SQL Server query optimizer automatically makes the correct determination. It is recommended that table-level locking hints be used to change the default locking behavior only when necessary.
Also, at another place in online books, it says:
The table hints are ignored if the table is not accessed by the query plan.
From the above, it seems that using locking hints is not going to guarantee that SQL Server will follow them. Is this true?

Hi,
Why SQL server dose work as follows when I dose not provide any join hints?
It looks like HASH join is the best plan, but SQL dose not. What kind of
JOIN method is used by SQL optimizer?

I need to use two hints (INDEX=indexname) and (NOLOCK).
I've tried
(INDEX=indexname),(NOLOCK)
(INDEX=indexname,NOLOCK)
(INDEX=indexname)(NOLOCK)
and nothing works.

While investigating performance problems within an application recently I carried out some tests using SET SHOWPLAN ON.
I had a query like this within a stored procedure:
SELECT MAX(X) FROM Y WHERE Z LIKE @MYVAR
Where @MYVAR was passed in. I discovered that SQL Server did a Table Scan even when Z had an index on it. A problem with 200,000 rows!
If I said
SELECT MAX(X) FROM Y WHERE Z LIKE 'HELLO%'
(i.e., used a constant instead of a variable) SQL Server did use the index correctly and did not do a table scan.
I got around this by rewriting my statement:
SELECT MAX(X) FROM Y (INDEX=MYINDEX) WHERE Z LIKE @MYVAR
in other words by manually specifying the index I had created on the Z column.
Hope this helps someone.

hi all,
I'm trying to run queries on relatively small tables (a few hundred thousand rows) with subqueries of counts per primary key columns as such:
(ColA in tableA is the primary key)
select * from tableA p
where exists (select 1 from ( select ColA, count(1) cnt
from TableA
group by ColA
having count(1)>1 ) t
where t.ColA= p.ColA)
order by some_col
my problem is that sqlserver 2005 sp5 does not materialize the internal subquery properly, or execute it beforehand and it gets confused as heck and pegs the CPUs at 100% forever.
What hints can I use to solve this issue?
I've tried to use ..... "with ...." to prepare/materialize the table upfront, no luck, one version of statement pegged one cpu at 100%, while the other statement pegged ALL cpu's at 100% -- don't remember which.
My only solution right now was to create these subqueries as PHYSICAL tables -- and this would solve the problem but that would entail creating a lot of un-necessary objects.
thanks much for any feedback!!

I've got a SELECT WITH (UPDLOCK, ROWLOCK) WHERE followed by an UPDATE WHERE statement. The results of the SELECT statement are deserialized in C# and updates are made to the deserialized object. Then the object is serialized back into the table with the UPDATE statement. I've got this code running within a transaction scope with the ReadCommited isolation level.
My service receives requests to update data and the requests can come in on different threads. What I'm seeing, is that once in a while, the log messages from my application indicate that two different threads are able to issue the above SELECT statement and both are receiving results. This is a problem since the thread that issues the last UPDATE will overwrite the changes made by the first. Each thread has its own connection and transaction scope.
I've researched all over the place and have tried a few different things, but all things point to the fact that query hints are just hints and that SQL may or may not pay attention to them. If that's the case, how am I suppose to perform a SELECT with the intention of updating so that no one else can do the same? I haven't tried table level locking, but I'd really like to avoid that if possible.

Hi,
Using Merge replication, I have a table that is filtered using the HOST_NAME() function. The filter also makes use of a function (as the HOST_NAME() is overriden to return some complex data).
Everything replicates and filters just fine. but when I add a join filter on a different table (the join filter is a simple foreign key join) I get the following error when the snapshot agent is run:
Message: Conflicting locking hints are specified for table "fn_GetIDList". This may be caused by a conflicting hint specified for a view.
Command Text: sp_MSsetup_partition_groups
Parameters: @publication = test1
fn_GetIDList is the function used in the original filter.
Thanks for any help

I am trying to use hints and they don't seem to be working.
Something like:
select * from TABLE_NAME with (tablock,xlock)
fails.
Documentation clearly states that this is supported (TABLOCK, NOLOCK, XLOCK, etc.), so I must be missing something simple.
Please let me know how do I use Hints in SQL Server 2005 Compact.
Thanks.
PS.
I am using C#. It doesn't work in my code when I use
SqlCeDataReader rs = cmd.ExecuteReader();
And it doesn't work from inside the VS 2005 "query tool" or whatever it is called, when you do "Connect to Database" and so on.

Do you know of a way, in the OLE DB Command (Executing a sql command for each record), to specify a lock hint?
Example: in my component, I want to update a table but I want to specify a ROWLOCK or UPDLOCK hint.
When I try using this sql statement in the 'SqlCommand' property:
UPDATE DIM_Accounts WITH (UPDLOCK)
SET COL1 = ''
SSIS gives a syntax error.
Do you know any workarounds?
Thanks!

This article instructed me on how to process rows from a table used as a data queue for multiple processes.
http://www.mssqltips.com/tip.asp?tip=1257
I tested this against the AdventureWorks DB (SQL 2005) and multiple SQL connections inside of Sql Mgmt. Studio).
Connection1:
BEGIN TRANSACTION
SELECT TOP 1 * FROM Production.WorkOrder WITH (updlock, readpast) --skips over locked rows
--COMMIT TRANSACTION
Connection2:
BEGIN TRANSACTION
SELECT TOP 1 * FROM Production.WorkOrder WITH (updlock, readpast) --skips over locked rows
COMMIT TRANSACTION
This works like I want where connection 2 skips over the locked row from connection 1 and gets the next available record from the table / queue. However, when I add ORDER BY tsql to each sql statement, connection 2 is now blocked waiting for Connection 1 to commit. (This is not what I want)
Connection1:
BEGIN TRANSACTION
SELECT TOP 1 * FROM Production.WorkOrder WITH (updlock, readpast) order by DueDate
--COMMIT TRANSACTION
Connection2:
BEGIN TRANSACTION
SELECT TOP 1 * FROM Production.WorkOrder WITH (updlock, readpast) order by DueDate --is blocked until connection 1 commits transaction
COMMIT TRANSACTION
How do I prevent blocking when using these locking hints with ORDER BY?
thanks

Greetings,
I have two tables:
CustomerOrder
----
ID
CustomerID
StatusID
CustomerOrderDetail
----
ID
Order_ID
StockID
Quantity
CustomerOrderDetail table has clustered unique index for ID and non-clustered for Order_ID
SQL Server 2005 is using table scan for CustomerOrderDetail table When I user the following query:
select
cod.*
from CustomerOrder co
inner join CustomerOrderDetail cod ON cod.Order_ID = co.ID
where
co.StatusID = 8 -- Pending
Both of the tables are pretty big, detail table has more than million records, so scanning the table is a bad idea.
When I specify hint to use index then sql seeks, but how do I make SQL server to use index automatically? I don't want to use hints in my queries.
Thanks!

Hi All,
Good Evening.
I need a comparision between Evaluation copy and Standard license version of SQL Server 2005 /SSIS.
I'm assigned a task to evaluate SSIS and migrate a project to SSIS.
I have downloaded SSIS evaluation version and started working on that.
Now i'm being posed questions for the complete functionality of the tool...
- Whether it has a Bulk load trasformation ?
- Whether the evaluation version contain all the features of a standard license version ?
I need to submit a consolidated report for SSIS in comparision to the current ETL tool features.
Can you please let me is there any considerable features not given with a evaluation copy ?
Thanks in advance,

I've run into a problem with SSIS packages wherein tasks that write or copy files, or create or delete directories, quit execution without any hint of an error nor a failure message, when called from an ASP.NET 2.0 application running on any other machine than the one where the package was created from. By all indications it appeared to be an identity/permissions problem.
Our application involves a separate web server and database server. Both have SQL Server 2005 installed, but the application server originally only had Integration services. The packages are file system-deployed on the application server, and are called using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime methods. For all packages that involve file system tasks, the above problem occurs.
When the above packages are run using the command prompt (either DTEXEC or DTEXECUI) the packages execute just fine. This is expected since we are using an administrative account. However when a ShellExecute of the same command is called from ASP.NET, the same problem occurs.
I've tried giving administrative permissions to the ASPNET worker process user to no avail.
I have likewise attempted to use the SQL Server Agent job approach but that approach might not be acceptable for our clients since it means installing SQL Server 2005 Database services on the application server.
I have read the relevant threads in this forum, namely http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1044739&SiteID=1 and http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=927084&SiteID=1 but failed to find any solution appropriate for our set up.
Anybody got any idea on how to go about this?

We manage some SSIS servers, which has only SSIS and SSIS tools installed on them and not the sql server DB.
SSIS packages and configuration files are deployed on a NAS. We run the SSIS packages through DTEXEC by logging in to the server.
We want to allow developers to run their packages on their own on the server, but at the same time we dont want to give them physical access on the server i.e we do not want to add them into RDP users list on server properties. We want them to allow running their packages remotely on the server.
One way We could think of is by using powershell remoting and we are working on that. But is there any other way or any tool already present for the same.
