Run SQL Agent Job in endless loop(When it's done, start over again)

Hi All,
There is an SQL Agent Job containing a complex Integration Services Package performing some ETL Jobs. It takes between 1 and 4 hours to run, depending on our data sources. The Job currently runs daily, without problems. What I would like to do now is to
let it run in an endless loop, which means: When it's done, start over again.
The scheduler doesn't seem to provide this option. I found that it would be possible to use the steps interface to go to step one after the last step is finished, but there's a problem using that method: If I need to stop the job, I would need to do that in
a forceful way. However I would like to be able to let the job stop after the next iteration. How can I do that?
Thanks in Advance...

Seriously I cant think of a reason for continuosly running a step like this
Do you mean you need to keep on polling db for something continuosly ?
If thats the requirement there's no need of continuosly calling the step
Instead of that you can include a loop with wait logic to keep on checking for your condition until it satisfies. You can WAITFOR clause for that
see an example here where I've implemented similar logic in SSIS

  • Running SQL agent jobs in parallel

    I have around 60 SQL agent jobs (each job has 1 step that loads data from ORACLE to SQL using attunity) that run SSIS packages that I need to run in parallel.  I did some testing and found that the server can handle 10 of them running at the same time.
     I know I need to loop through sysjobhistory and find the ones (all 60 jobs start with PS) that haven't ran today, currently not running and the first tow words of the name = 'PS'.  Any advice on how to get this accomplished would be appreciated.
    I have seen some articles that mention adding 10 data flows to a SSIS package and run them that way but I would like for SQL to handle it, so I can get the time.
    Thanks!

    That will definitely help identify the jobs but I need to figure the looping logic that will allow 10 jobs to run in parallel.
    try this.. not tested.. left comments where possible for you to understand..may need to tweak it a bit..
    declare @a intset @a=0
    declare @jobname nvarchar(200)
    -- checks if there are already 10 jobs running
    while (@a <10) and ((Select count(C.Name) as [JobName]
    from (Select max(Session_id) as Session_Id from msdb.dbo.syssessions) A
    INNER JOIN msdb.dbo.sysjobactivity B on A.Session_id=B.Session_ID
    INNER JOIN msdb.dbo.sysjobs C on B.job_id=C.Job_ID
    where B.stop_execution_date is null AND B.run_requested_date is not null and C.Name like 'PS%') < 10)
    begin
    --loops through to fetch one non-running job at a time and fetches upto 10 jobs
    Select top 1 @jobName = name
    from msdb.dbo.sysjobs X
    INNER JOIN msdb.dbo.sysjobactivity Z on Z.job_id=X.Job_ID
    where name like 'PS%' and
    --checks the job is currently not running
    name not in (
    Select C.Name as [JobName]
    from (Select max(Session_id) as Session_Id from msdb.dbo.syssessions) A
    INNER JOIN msdb.dbo.sysjobactivity B on A.Session_id=B.Session_ID
    INNER JOIN msdb.dbo.sysjobs C on B.job_id=C.Job_ID
    where B.stop_execution_date is null AND B.run_requested_date is not null)
    --makes sure the job already did not run today
    and cast(Z.run_requested_date as date)<>cast(getdate() as date)
    order by name
    Execute msdb.dbo.sp_start_job @job_Name=@jobName
    set @a=@a+1
    End
    Hope it Helps!!

    Hi BIRam,
    Based on the current information, the issue may be caused by the factor that the SQL Server Agent Service Account doesn’t have access to the MySQL server. Try to create a SQL Server Agent Proxy account that has sufficient permission on the MySQL server.
    In addition, also pay attention to the package protection level setting.
    For more information, please see:

  • User created SQL Agent Job that uses linked server with Windows authentication

    OK, here's what I want to do, but not sure exactly what I need to accomplish it.
    Environment
    Windows 2008 Enterprise
    SQL 2012 Enterprise
    SQL Server & SQL Agent running under AD account (which has local Windows Administrative privileges...yes, I know..bad!)
    Linked server to Teradata utilizing AD account mappings (the linked server works successfully and each windows login is mapped to a Teradata LDAP login)
    Requirement
    Allow non sysadmins to create SQL Agent jobs which execute TSQL statements which use OPENQUERY(LDAPLinkedServer, '....) syntax
    I've already given the non sysadmins the necessary permissions to create and run SQL Agent jobs, and I understand that the jobs run under their login context, but I suspect that I'm missing something when it comes to the linked server.
    Each windows user could have access to different databases/tables on the Teradata system that even I (the SQL Server sysadmin) don't have access to.
    How can I facilitate this functionality?  Any ideas?

    I think I may have been over complicating the Teradata piece.  The authentication methodology in Teradata is LDAP, which just means that it authenticates against AD, but you still have to submit your Windows login & password.  It doesn't automatically
    authenticate you just because you're logged into Windows.  
    The linked server has the mapping for the individual windows logins like:
    Local Login = <domain>.<windows id>
    Remote User = <windows id>
    Remote Password = <windows password>
    This setup requires the user to have to change the passwords in the linked server whenever they change their passwords according to domain policy (every xx days)...but we've created a utility proc that they can use to do this.
    So, I'm thinking that Teradata isn't really part of this equation.

  • SSIS Package will only run as SQL Agent Job when I have remote desktop to server open.

    Hey guys, so I have another problem to add to the already massive 'SSIS/SQL Server Agent Job' pile. After days of searching, I can't seem to find anything specific to my problem though.
    The setup is as follows: a SSIS package that refreshes and saves excel files that are hosted on a server. The package runs fine on the local machine, using BIDS on the server, and will even work as a SQL Agent Job on the server IF there is a remote
    desktop connection to the server. To elaborate, if I simply run the job as you would normally do it will fail and give the below error. If I run the job while either myself, or a different machine, has a remote desktop connection to the server where the
    job is scheduled - it will run successfully.
    Below is the error from the History File of the job. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
      Source: Refresh Excel and Save      Description: System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x8000401A): Retrieving

    UPDATE:
    In my previous post the Identity in DCOM Config file for Microsoft Excel was set as The Interactive User. The job was working only when I had a remote connection to the server open.
    If I set the Identity to 'This User' and use the username and password of the server login account, it will work as a scheduled job without needing an open remote connection to the server. So it works, great! but I have reservations setting this
    for all instances of Excel for the server. I'm sure other users have different accounts they use for running Excel. Any suggestions around this?

    Hi LiamSexton,
    It should be the server-side Automation of Office issue described in the following KB article:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/257757 
    Microsoft does not currently recommend, and does not support, Automation of Microsoft Office applications from any unattended, non-interactive client application or component (including ASP, ASP.NET, DCOM, and NT Services), because Office may exhibit
    unstable behavior and/or deadlock when Office is run in this environment.
    User Identity: Office applications assume a user identity when the applications are run, even when Automation starts the applications. The applications try to initialize toolbars, menus, options, printers, and some add-ins based on settings in the user
    registry hive for the user who launches the application. Many services run under accounts that have no user profiles (such as the SYSTEM account or the IWAM_[servername] accounts). Therefore, Office may not initialize correctly on startup. In this situation,
    Office returns an error on the CreateObject function or the CoCreateInstance function. Even if the Office application can be started, other functions may not work correctly if no user profile exists.
    To work around the issue, you can refer to the following alternative introduced in the article:
    Most server-side Automation tasks involve document creation or editing. Office 2007 supports new Open XML file formats that let developers create, edit, read, and transform file content on the server side. These file formats use the System.IO.Package.IO
    namespace in the Microsoft .NET 3.x Framework to edit Office files without using the Office client applications themselves. This is the recommended and supported method for handling changes to Office files from a service.

  • Management Studio Crashing When Adding SSIS Step to SQL Agent Job

    Hi
    I am running Windows Server 2012, SQL Server 2012 SP2 CU2, SQL Server Management Studio 2012 and Visual Studio 2012.
    I have existing SQL Agent Jobs that run SSIS packages and they all currently work. However, if I try to edit them or add a new job that uses a SSIS package Management Studio will crash.  I was having this problem a couple weeks ago when I was still
    on SQL Server 2012 SP1 CU9, so I updated to SQL Server 2012 SP2 CU2 and the problem went away for a couple weeks and I was able to add new SQL Agent jobs that run SSIS packages.  But now it issue is back and there are no new updates to try and fix it.
    Has anyone seen this before and found a reliable fix to it?
    Steps to cause crash:
    1) Open new SQL Agent Job
    2) Select Steps and add a New Step
    4) Change the job type to SQL Server Integration Services Package.
    5) SSMS Crashes

    I ended up being able to work around this without having to recreate everything on a Windows Server 2008 R2. I did this by setting up an azure point to site VPN from
    my computer to the Windows Server 2012 hosted on azure.  I was then able to connect SSMS from my computer to the Azure VM allowing me to create and edit new SQL Agent jobs that run SSIS packages. Here are the steps to do this
    1) Connect to the VPN from another machine besides the server.
    2) Open SSMS using the runas.exe command with the Domain\User Name of a Windows account on the server.
    - Ex. Runas.exe /netonly /user:DOMAIN\USER "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\110\Tools\Binn\ManagementStudio\Ssms.exe"
    2) Connect to the VM's Database Engine using its internal IP address and the port that SQL Server is listening on (default is 1433) and a SQL Login
    setup on the server.
    -Ex IP, 10.0.0.1,1433
    3) Create a new job with the type SQL Server Integration
    Services Package. Select the package source (SSIS Catalog). I could not get the server to be automatically discovered here so enter the server’s internal IP address and select the package you want to run.
    4) Right click the new SQL Agent Job and choose Script Job As, CREATE To, New Query Window. This is the script to create the
    SQL Agent Job and it needs to be edited to contain the Name of the server on the internal IP address that was used earlier.
    5) Edit the @command= line of the script to use the server name. Change the highlighted part below to the server name.
    - Ex . @command=N'/ISSERVER "\"\SSISDB\PACKAGELOCATION\"" /SERVER
    "\"10.0.0.1\"" /Par "\"$ServerOption::LOGGING_LEVEL(Int16)\"";1 /Par "\"$ServerOption::SYNCHRONIZED(Boolean)\"";True /CALLERINFO SQLAGENT /REPORTING E',
                - Change to this
                            - @command=N'/ISSERVER "\"\SSISDB\PACKAGELOCATION\""
    /SERVER SERVERNAME /Par "\"$ServerOption::LOGGING_LEVEL(Int16)\"";1 /Par "\"$ServerOption::SYNCHRONIZED(Boolean)\"";True /CALLERINFO SQLAGENT /REPORTING E',
    6) Now change the name of the package in the script and run it. Now the new package can be edited in the GUI to change things like the schedule and alerts. Also you
    can edit any existing packages.

  • Unable to Run SSIS Package Through SQL Agent Job

    Hi,
    I recently upgraded SQL server 2008 R2 to SQL Server 2012. I also upgraded all the packages on the server. The package runs fine from BIDS. However when I try to run the package through the SQL Agent Job it fails with the error below:

  • Automated SQL Agent jobs do not run

    Hi all
    I am having serious issues in running SSIS packages automatically.
    Furthermore, when I assign a job to run the SSIS package manually (SSMS -> Start Job at Step....), it runs through the job very quickly and displays "success", when in actual fact, it hasn't done anything.
    I have tested my package in BIDS and all works fine.
    Can anyone give me a clue as to what may be going wrong please?
    Many thanks in advance.

    Hi divvyboy,
    Based on your description, the issue may be caused by one of the following factors:
    Data source connection issue. This can occur because the SQL Server Agent Service Account or the proxy account lacks permissions to access the data source.
    Package Protection Level issue.
    For the solution in each scenario, please refer to the following link:

    If the issue persists, please post the error details from the SQL Server Agent job history.

  • How to Run SSIS Package through SQL AGENT Job

    I am good with SSIS, I created a package which will load the excel files to SQL SERVER  tables. To Implement this I wrote the C# code to extract the first sheet name only, and then
    package will load the data present the first sheet only. The package working fine when i run this through BIDS. But the same package throwing error at C# code step when i am running this package through SQL AGENT JOB. When i searched for this, i have seen
    many posts saying that, this is happening becoz of using Microsoft.interop.excel references inside the c# code. Please help me with this. Is there any alternate way in c# to extract the first sheet name(not based on ascending order) of an excel file with out
    using interop. Or
    How to configure SQL AGENT job to run suceessfully when using interop inside the code.
    My UAT server is of 64 bit. And i have to run this in the same server.

  • SQL Agent Job Fails To Run A SSIS Package

    Hi,
    I have a SSIS Package which basically truncates the table and re-loads it from an excel file .The job runs fine if i run it manually on visual studio.However, i try to shcedule a SQL Agent job and it fails with the following error
     Description: The requested OLE DB provider Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 is not registered. If the 64-bit driver is not installed, run the package in 32-bit mode. Error code: 0x00000000.  An OLE DB record is available.  Source: "Microsoft

    I am exactly not sure what it means?
    Can someone please help me with any suggestions on this.
    Thanks.

    Thanks for trying that option . It looks like there is an issue with the driver . Can you try to install/uninstall the driver once again from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=13255.

  • Error with SSIS package running as SQL Agent job

    I have a strange issue.
    I have a SQL Agent job that execute 5 steps, each step is an SSIS package that imports a CSV file to a temp table, then executes a SQL script to update a production table. 
    This job runs every 3 mins, every day, and has been for over a year.
    Every once in a while it will start failing on step 2.  Sometime it only happens for a couple of runs, other times I have to restart the SQL server.  Once it corrects itself, it could be months before it happens again, but usually happens every
    few weeks.
    The error in the job history is: "Unable to bulk copy data. You may need to run this package as an administrator"
    Obviously I have all the permissions correct, as it was running successfully every 3 mins before this error suddenly starts. I'm at a loss as to what the problem is.  It is always on step 2, which is identical to step 1 except its a different CSV file
    going to a different table. As I typed this, it failed twice, then was successful afterwards.
    Any ideas where to look for further information? I've checked the event viewer and looked in the SQL logs, nothing stands out at this time.

    Hi Kerberos35,
    It seems to be caused by the UAC feature which makes SSIS use the low-permissions token of the administrator Windows account under which the job runs. This issue is described in the following KB article:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2216489/en-us 
    To resolve the issue, you can install the latest service pack for your SQL Server. To work around this issue, you can also use one of the following two methods:
    Method 1: Replace the SQL Server Destination components in the Data Flow Tasks that are failing with OLE DB Destination components that point to the same SQL Server connection manager.
    Method 2: Create a SQL Server Agent proxy by using a Windows account that is not a member of the local Administrators group after you assign Create Global Objects permissions to that account.
    To do this, follow these steps:
    Click Start, point to Administrative Tools, and then click Local Security Policy.
    Expand Local Policies, and then click User Rights Assignment.
    In the details pane, double-click Create global objects.
    In the Local Security Policy Setting dialog box, click Add.
    In the Select Users or Group dialog box, click the user accounts that you want to add, click Add, and then click OK two times.

  • SSIS ETL does not pick the file from Share point when it execute through SQL Agent job

    I have created one SSIS packages, which pick the file from the Share point document library. its work successfully, once it execute through the VS project application. 
    But when i create a job in SQL Server Agent for this package then it does not pick the file and job getting fail. 
    Just for more update, SQL Server has been install in Cluster mode and using BIDS 2012 with SQl Server 2012.

    Hi PriyankGupta,
    SQL Server Integration Services is not cluster awareness, and does not support failover from one cluster node to another. So, in your clustered environment, make sure SSIS is installed on each node in the cluster. In other word, SSIS must be installed on
    the server where the SQL Server Agent job is created. 
    If you use any third party task/component or drivers, make sure they are installed on the SQL Server Agent job server. Besides, also pay attention to the protection level of the package as well as 32-bit or 64-bit runtime mode of the package. For more information,
    please see:

    If the issue persists, please post the error message in the job history for further analysis.
