DPM 2010 Scheduled Jobs Disappear rather than Run

I have a situation where I have a DPM server that appears to be functioning fine, but none of the scheduled jobs run. No errors are given, there are no Alerts, and there is nothing in the Event log (Application and System) which indicates a failure.
All my Protection Groups show a green tick to indicate that they are fine, but the last successful backup for all of them is Friday the 8th of February.
If I go to Monitoring and Jobs I see the jobs scheduled, but when the time comes for the job to run, it does not go into the "All jobs in progress", it just merely disappears, like thus:
And a few minutes later,
As you can see, the jobs disappear from the queue, and the total number of jobs decreases accordingly. These jobs do not go into any of the other 3 Statusses (Completed, Failed or In Progress), they just disappear without a trace.
There is some unallocated space, albeit not much (Used space: 21 155,05 GB Unallocated space: 469,16 GB). If space was an issue I would expect to see errors to indicate this.
DPM 2010 running version 3.0.8193.0 (hotfix rollup package 6) using remote instance of SQL 2008 which is functioning fine. I have tried stopping/starting the services, and even rebooted the server twice. The remote instance of SQL server is using
a domain account as its service account. There are no pending Windows updates, i.e. it is fully up-to-date.
The System Center Data Protection Manager 2010 Troubleshooting Guide (July 2010) does not show how to troubleshoot this particular probelm.
Does anybody know how to resolve this issue or which logs might help me troubleshoot it?

OK,
Did you change the SQL Agent user account ?
If so, DPM enters the SQL Agent account name into the registry and later we check that account each time the DPM engine launches. The internal interfaces to DPM are secured using this account so the account name needs to match the account the SQL Agent
is using.
Step 1
In the registry HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft Data Protection Manager\Setup alter both
SqlAgentAccountName and SchedulerJobOwnerName keys to reflect the SQL Agent user account being used.
Step 2
Update DCOM launch and access permissions to match what was granted to the Microsoft$DPM$Acct account.

Oracle Grid Scheduled jobs disappear from active tab?

Thread was posted before as a similar situation.
Grid Control jobs disappeared from schedule
But was never answered;
For Grid control v10.2.0.3 Unix box.
I was wondering if this is a bug within OGC. Some of the scheduled jobs disappear from the active tab and have to be re-submitted. Does anyone or has anyone experienced this? Agents are in synch, and the only thing that was done was a bounce of the database and possibly the box itself.
Thanks,

Hi,
I have upgraded Discoverer 4i EUL to 10g EUL by using auto upgrade utility which comes with the Disocverer 10.1.2 and installed the Discoverer 10g Admin Edition on my PC. And I executed the batchusr_app.sql and assigned a user DISCREP(other than APPS). We are in APPS mode EUL. The script execution completed fine and the EUL5 packages were created under the DISCREP owner. When I log into the Discoverer Admin and select Tools/Privileges and at the point of assigning the result tables to a schema which is DISCREP, I am getting a message saying that 'EUL5_BATCH_REPOSITORY' package is wrong version and batchusr.sql script needs to be run. I ran the batchusr.sql script and when tried to assign the schema to own result tables it gave me the same message.
Any ideas. You may have gone through this during your upgrades or installation.
Thanks,

DPM 2010 Cancel Jobs -Database Backup

Hi All,
We have an Exchange 2010 Environment with DPM 2010 Backup Solution.
I am facing issue to Cancel one of the Database Job. We have three mailbox servers and configured 8 database backup per server.
If i try to cancel one database job, associated database backup jobs also cancelling.
Please let me know, is there any DPM shell command to cancel particular job in DPM server.
Regards
Manoj

Hi Manoj,
You could use the DPM Shell command Stop-Job - see below for a description:
NAME
    Stop-Job
SYNOPSIS
    Stops a Windows PowerShell background job.
SYNTAX
    Stop-Job [[-InstanceId] <Guid[]>] [-PassThru] [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [<Common
    Parameters>]
    Stop-Job [-Job] <Job[]> [-PassThru] [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [<CommonParameters
    >]
    Stop-Job [[-Name] <string[]>] [-PassThru] [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [<CommonPara
    meters>]
    Stop-Job [-Id] <Int32[]> [-PassThru] [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [<CommonParameter
    s>]
    Stop-Job [-State {NotStarted | Running | Completed | Failed | Stopped | Blo
    cked}] [-PassThru] [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [<CommonParameters>]
DESCRIPTION
    The Stop-Job cmdlet stops Windows PowerShell background jobs that are in pr
    ogress. You can use this cmdlet to stop all jobs or stop selected jobs base
    d on their name, ID, instance ID, or state, or by passing a job object to S
    top-Job.
    You can use Stop-Job to stop jobs that were started by using Start-Job or t
    he AsJob parameter of Invoke-Command. When you stop a background job, Windo
    ws PowerShell completes all tasks that are pending in that job queue and th
    en ends the job. No new tasks are added to the queue after this command is
    submitted.
    This cmdlet does not delete background jobs. To delete a job, use Remove-Jo
    b.

Can an EDQ job preserve rather than overwrite its previous outputs

We have a job running on a scheduled basis that outputs data quality issues to a spreadsheet.
We would like to keep a history of specific error details (e.g. which records had which data quality issues) over time (i.e. more details than the simple measures that can be published to the Dashboard for seeing trends over time).
I believe we could do this kind of thing using an export to an external database table (or even a file in the EDQ server's landing area) using the 'Append to current data' option however is that a recommended way to go or is there any alternative e.g. is it possible for the job to write to
(a) a spreadsheet/file with a different name each time it runs (e.g. suffixed with the run timestamp) or
(b) an EDQ staged data area without deleting what was previously in the table (we could include a run timestamp column to distinguish the runs).
Thanks, Nik

Thanks for the update Mike - and for reminding me of that option (I hadn't been using run labels to now due to the fact that these are not compatible with Result Book exports to spreadsheets).
I guess in that latter case we would have to use the command line utility runopsjob in conjunction with a scheduled script (run at the operating system level) that changes the -runlabel argument passed to it.
Thanks, Nik

XS Scheduled Job stuck in state "RUNNING"

Hello guys,
I am running HANA Dev Edition on AWS (Rev. 70). There is a .xsjs file which is called every 5 minutes by the xs job scheduler.
However after shutdown on Tuesday and startup on Friday the job did not start correctly (?)
I am pretty sure the job isn't running any more - the instance has been stopped another time in the meantime and the HANA Database was restarted, too.
The question is: How can I reset the job? While the last run is in state RUNNING, the next one won't be scheduled. I tried removing the "active" flag in XS-Admin and setting it again but without success.
Should I try an update on "_SYS_XS"."JOB_LOG" and set STATUS to 'SCHEDULED'?
Any hints are appreciated,
Fabian

Hi Fabian,
I'm experiencing a similar problem with stuck job. Did you ever get this resolved? What did you do?
Thanks,

Installshield Merge Module Rather Than Run-Time Engine

I create installations for our company using Installshield 11
Professional. At this point, the only way to install the
necessary files to run a Lab View application is to add the Lab View
7.1 run time engine into the setup.
What I am looking for is an alternative. I am hoping there is
some sort of merge module out there which can be added to Installshield
so I don't have to call the Lab View run-time engine installer from my
installer.
Does such a thing exist?
Or does anyone have any advice on how I can make a Lab View installer using InstallShield and make the installation unified?
I don't prefer the current setup I have where our software installation
begins, then the run-time engine installer takes over, and then our
setup continues.
Thanks for any help,
Adam

Hi Rolf,
It seems to me that you are explaining the problem I encountered after finding the merge modules which Chris led me to. That problem was which merge modules to use?
I have in fact been trying to identify which modules I'd need, and was
going to do it by trial and error. If there is an easier way then
I'll give your method a shot.
Is this what you are refering to in your message above?
Well,
I'm not sure I understand you correct, but yes I think that is what my
message meant. Basically if you look at the two VIs and try them out
you will more or less see how they work.
You can then try to create a small tool, that given a *.msm file as
input will tell you which other msm files you need to include in your
Install Shield installer. If that is easier than trial and error is of
course something you can depate over. Also note that the order of
inclusion of msm files in an installer seems to be important too. The
lowest one in a depency chain should be first I believe.
For your particular problem you would look at the LVRunTime.msm
file to get a list of all other modules you need to include in your
installer. I actually would suspect that Install Shield should have
some functionality to list dependencies of merge modules, too.

TSQL code that causes table data to be deleted rather than fail with a compilation error

Afternoon,
I recently did this by accident and it felt as though it should have failed with a compilation error rather than run
A query of the form
delete from jobs
where id in
select id from calibrations
will delete all rows in the jobs table when the id column exists in the jobs table, but not the calibrations table. This should fail with a compilation error.
the following sql can be used to generate a test database to show the problem
USE [test]
GO
/****** Object: Table [dbo].[calibrations]    Script Date: 28/11/2014 13:32:59 ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[calibrations](
   [JobId] [int] NULL,
   [textfield] [nvarchar](50) NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
/****** Object: Table [dbo].[jobs]    Script Date: 28/11/2014 13:32:59 ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[jobs](
   [Id] [int] NOT NULL,
   [Name] [nchar](10) NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
INSERT [dbo].[calibrations] ([JobId], [textfield]) VALUES (1, N'something')

simon

will delete all rows in the jobs table when the id column exists in the jobs table,
but not the calibrations table. This should fail with a compilation error.
Hello Simon,
That's a bug in your T-SQL Statement, not in SQL Server. The Statement as it is valid and column "id" exists, so why should it fail on compilation?
And that is the reason why we always should use full qualified object name, e.g. like
delete from jobs AS J
where J.id in
select SUB.id from calibrations AS SUB
and this Statement should fail on compilation.

How to schedule job?

Hello All,
i have a few questions about jobs (scheduling jobs)
I want to run one procedure at 7:00 A.M and I want to stop this procedure at 12:30 PM on Daily basis.Is it possible with DBMS_JOB? I don't know how to stop running job at specified time.
I m using Oracle 9i on Linux

Hi,
Your best bet is probably to schedule a second job to run at 12:30pm every day and execute the stop. To do the stop you will probably need to figure out the session and terminate the session (google for stopping dbms_job).
In 10gR2 and up dbms_scheduler (the replacement for dbms_job) can handle this scenario in a much more striahgtforward way (generate an event if the job exceeds a max_run_duration and have the event trigger a second job to snipe the first using a stop_job call).

Material Document schedule job printing.

Dear All ,
I had configured all configuration to print the material document details in a smartofrm . All details are copied in the material document from output determination.
if i set printing preference 4.send immediately (when saving the application) i am getting the output in the printer. Here the status is green .
Here my user want to set the preference as 1.send with periodically scheduled job , so that all the material documents will be printed at the same time.
How to schedule this in back ground job . I had tried in MB90 its not working there.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Srihari.P

Hi,
You can schedule the Job for the Despatch time 3. Send with application own transaction also, for this you have to select the program to run for the Job, as you said you can schedule the JOB on the program of MB90
for Using the Despatch time 1. 1. Send with periodically scheduled job, you have to run or setup job for the Program RSNAST00
Manually you can also run the program RSNAST00 in SE38 to chcek whether the OUTPUT was processed or not
Goto SE38 and with the RSNAST00 ,, execute and enter the Details of Application area ME and OUTPUT type and the Document number.
Then in the Menu click on Program--Exdcute in Back ground. It will run and in SM37 you can find the Processed outputs or Logs if any in case if they are not processed. you can then trace the error
In the foreground you cant identify the eror or reason of why it was not processed.

How to cancell all scheduled jobs

Is there a Command line (or) any other option to kill all scheduled jobs, because when cloning of data happens from Production to other testing instance, scheduled jobs will still be running and are consuming space.
We could use admin screen , killing one by one is taking lot of time.
Appreciate your input
Thanks

Hi user10596151,
you can try the following:
To disable all of the scheduled workbooks immediately, use the following PL/SQL block. The PL/SQL block should be run as a privileged user (such as 'system').
Declare
cursor c1 is
select job from all_jobs where what like '%EUL5%';
begin
for i in c1 loop
dbms_job.broken(i.job,true);
end loop;
end;
Note: For Discoverer 4 replace EUL5 with EUL4

Scheduled job keeps hanging after sveral days

MII experts,
We are using MII 12.0.8. I have several scheduled jobs. Those that run once every day never have any problem. However, I have one that runs every 10 minutes keeps hanging after running for 3-4 days. I have to stop and start to kick it off again if that happens. When it hangs, it appears it is still in running state but it never finish.
Have anyone seen this problem before?
Thanks.

We are running MII Version 12.1.5 Build(91) and have noticed jobs in the schedule that are running but are obviously not doing anything. These jobs are user to trnsfer files around our site via ftp.
MII gives no error or indication that the job has failed so we know nothing about these problems untill an end user complains about their file transfers not working. As we are a 24 by 7 site this involves calls to aur support people at all hours.
We have asked SAP for help but they require a Step by Step method to duplicate the error. As this is a very intermitant problem that we have not been able to reproduce on demand this request has been ignored by SAP.
We have many schedule jobs that run once per minute. Slowing them down more would have a bad impact on the usefullnes of the transfers.
If anyone gets an answer to this issue we would love to hear it.
