Fails when executing job called syspolicy_purge_history (SQL Server 2012)

Hi friends i have the following  problem
The job syspolicy_purge_history  of my database engine failed, specifically on the third step called "Erase Phantom System Health Records" that executes a powershell.  This is the sentence that executes (All job syspolicy_purge_history
on any SQL 2012 has the same code):
if ('$(ESCAPE_SQUOTE(INST))' -eq 'MSSQLSERVER') {$a = '\DEFAULT'} ELSE {$a = ''};
(Get-Item SQLSERVER:\SQLPolicy\$(ESCAPE_NONE(SRVR))$a).EraseSystemHealthPhantomRecords()
.  When i see the job history i get the following:
Message
Executed as user: NT Service\SQLSERVERAGENT. The job script encountered the following errors. These errors did not stop the script:  A job step received an error at line 1 in a PowerShell script. The corresponding line is 'import-module SQLPS  -DisableNameChecking'.
Correct the script and reschedule the job. The error information returned by PowerShell is: 'The specified module 'SQLPS' was not loaded because no valid module file was found in any module directory.  '  A job step received an error at line 2 in
a PowerShell script. The corresponding line is '(Get-Item SQLSERVER:\SQLPolicy\SRV01236$a).EraseSystemHealthPhantomRecords()'. Correct the script and reschedule the job. The error information returned by PowerShell is: 'Cannot find drive. A drive with the
name 'SQLSERVER' does not exist.  '  A job step received an error at line 2 in a PowerShell script. The corresponding line is '(Get-Item SQLSERVER:\SQLPolicy\SRV01236$a).EraseSystemHealthPhantomRecords()'. Correct the script and reschedule the job.
The error information returned by PowerShell is: 'You cannot call a method on a null-valued expression.  '.  Process Exit Code -1.  The step failed.
Aditionally i tested putting the policies in powershell like unrestricted (like i see on a blog). but it didn't work.
My SQL version is 2012 Standard SP1 X64
Please help me with this
Thanks for your help

Thanks for your help princekumar8 and gona_david
Hello Gona_david,  You are right, when i execute the powershell sentence Get-Module -ListAvailable
the SQLPS module doesn't appear. 
Look i have another SQL Server 2012 in another server, but this is patched on SP2 and the syspolicy_purge_history here runs OK.  Also when i execute the powershell, the SQLPS appears in the list.
So, my question is: If i patch my server SQL Server 2012 with the error from SP1 to SP2, is Possible that the error will get away? In fact, Wouldn't be yet necessary runs the SQL install? 
Basically what you recommend me in this case?
Thanks in advance 
Greetings

    Hi 
    I think the Network Admin should create an account in Active Directory as well and then adding it to the host server... Otherwise , connect with SQL Authentication.

  • Error when creating a database on SQL Server 2012(Virtual Machine)

    Hi,
    I create a virtual machine on VMWare Workstation 10, then install Windows 7(32bit), then install SQL Server 2012 Enterprise version.
    Then I write a Visual C++2008 program and using ADO to connect to the local SQL Server, with the connection string below:
    “Provider=sqloledb;Data Source=(local);Integrated Security=SSPI;”
    The connect succeed, then I try to create a new SQL Server database by calling:
    m_pConnection->Execute(_T(“create database MyDatabase on primary (name = ‘MyDatabase’, filename = ‘E:\\MyDatabase.mdf’)”), NULL, 0);
    where E: is a USB drive plugged in.
    When running the above statement, I can even see the MyDatabase.mdf file is being created, but finally get an error and error number is 80040e31 when checking the error from m_pConnection, after analyzing the com exception, we find it reports the error as
    “IDispath error #3121”. Both errors seem to indicate a “Timeout error”.
    Then I try to create the database on the local drive in the virtual machine, as follows:
    m_pConnection->Execute(_T(“create database MyDatabase on primary (name = ‘MyDatabase’, filename = ‘C:\\MyDatabase.mdf’)”), NULL, 0);
    Then I get error number: 80040e14 from m_pConnection, and com error is “IDispath error #3092”
    What is the problem?
    Thanks

  • When I use framing in SQL Server 2012 express, error occurred

    Hello, everyone,
    I met a error when I use framing in the SQL Server 2012 Express. Could you help me, thank you!
    the query is:

    Hello,
    If you run that statement on SQL Server 2012 (or later), you won’t receive any errors.
    I receive that error message only when I run that statement on SQL Server 2008.
    I didn't try with SQL Server 2012 Express though. I tested with a SQL Server 2012 Standard Edition instance with SP1 CU2, and your statement works.
    Hope this helps.

  • Error when execute a package from SQL Server Agent

    We have the next problem:
    When we execute a package from a Job of SQL Server agent, it shows the success messege, but reviewing the results, the package didnt do all the tasks.
    When we run it mannually by MSIS the package, it shows the success message and it works fine.
    The workflow of the package is :
    1) Shrink the databases (executing a sql file)
    2) Backup the databases (Back up Database task of MSIS)
    3) Rename the files to .BAK extension (by the Foreach loop container and fyle system task)
    4) Execute command to compress the it (by a .bat)

    Hi nap_bhatt,
    Based on your description, we need to verify that if you get the error while starting the syspolicy_purge_history job manually in SQL Server 2012. If so, which account do you use to log on to the SQL Server instance and run the job?
    According to the error message “AuthorizationManager check failed” , it indicates that your account has no permission to execute the PowerShell script in SQL Server Agent job. To troubleshoot this issue, please make sure that your account has permissions
    to the SQLPS folder and it has rights to execute the PowerShell script.
    In addition, please use the “Get-ExecutionPolicy” PowerShell command to check the current status of execution policy, if the execution policy is set to “Restricted”, try to set it to “RemoteSigned” or “Unrestricted”. Please note that you need to set this
    execution policy in both the Windows PowerShell  and the SQL PowerShell consoles.

  • Error Calculating InstanceID when installing SQL Server 2012 SP1 on Windows 7 Home Premium SP1

    Hello...
    I know this issue has been on several tickets but I have not been able to find a satisfactory solution.  I am receiving error 0x85640001 "...error calculating instanceid" when I attempt to install SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition DVD. 
    I have downloaded the ISO for the enterprise evaluation product and tried burning it to a DVD-RW and decompressing the ISO to my desktop for installation without success.
    The log files do state the setup process runs into a badimageformat exception.
    I had SQL Server 2008 Developer edition installed on this laptop, but I have completely removed all prior SQL Server instances (using the uninstall wizard in Control Panel).
    Please let me know what you suggest to correct this problem.

  • MS SQL Server 2012 SP2 post-installation error

    Hi all,
    Windows update gave me an option to install updates for my MS SQL Server 2012. One was the SP1 and the other was the SP2. During that time i selected both but in the end the update for 'Security Update for
    SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 1 (KB2977326)' failed and the update for 'Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 2 (KB2958429)' succeeded.
    What i saw then when I run management studio and did a select top 100 rows command on a table I got the below error: 
    An error occurred while executing batch. Error message is: Method not found: 'System.String Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Util.BytesToHexString(Byte[], Int32)'.
    This happens only for select statements. Edit and all other works fine. Does anybody know about this issue?
    Thanks for you time. :)

    Hi DBTheoN,
    We check whether a program is an add-in from "Programs and Features" based on experience. I understand it is a little hard.
    So, here I have another way to check which assemblies are being loading during the querying. That, we can follow these steps:
    Download
    Process Monitor
    Open Process Monitor and start monitoring
    Open SQL Server Management Studio, and then execute the query
    Stop the monitoring
    From Process Monitor, filter the result by Process name(ssms.exe), Event Class(File IO) and Path(End With .dll)
    Save it and share it with us
    Once I receive the log, I will help to analyze it.

  • Executing SSIS packages through SQL Server Jobs.

    Hi,
    I have an SSIS package which generates xml and text files and ftps it to an ftp site. When i run the package from BIDS it works successfully but when i run it from a job it fails. My SSIS package connects to DB server A and though i'm creating a job on DB
    server A but my folder structure and the package resides in server B from where i'm connecting to DB server A through Management Studio. I'm using File system in SQL server Agent Job to call the package. When i execute the job i get following error:

    Hi Christa Kurschat,
    I'm running the job under proxy account. And that account has sysadmin permissions.
    I used following script to create proxy account and run my package under that account:
    I. Create job executor account
    Highlight Security->New Login, say to make login as devlogin, type your password, default database can be your target database.
    Server roles: check �sysadmin�
    User mapping: your target database
    Msdb database: you make sure to include
    SQLAgentUserRole, SQLAgentReaderRole,  SQLAgentOperatorRole
    Then click OK
    II. Create SQL proxy account and associate proxy account with job executor account
    Here is the code and run it the query window.
    Use master
    CREATE CREDENTIAL [MyCredential] WITH IDENTITY = 'yourdomain\myWindowAccount', secret = 'WindowLoginPassword'
    Use msdb
    Sp_add_proxy @proxy_name='MyProxy', @credential_name='MyCredential'
    Sp_grant_login_to_proxy @login_name=' devlogin', @proxy_name='MyProxy'
    Sp_grant_proxy_to_subsystem @proxy_name='MyProxy', @subsystem_name='SSIS'
    III. Create SSIS package
    In MS SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio, you use job executor account devlogin to create the SSIS package (DTS) and make sure you can execute this package
    in SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio. Compile/build this package.
    IV. Create the job, schedule the job and run the job
    In SQL Server Management Studio, highlight SQL Server Agent -> Start. Highlight Job ->New Job�, name it , myJob.
    Under Steps, New Step, name it, Step1,
    Type: SQL Server Integration Service Package
    Run as: myProxy
    Package source: File System
    Browse to select your package file xxx.dtsx
    Click Ok
    Schedule your job and enable it
    I followed these steps.
    Thanks,

  • SQL Server 2012 syspolicy_purge_history job causes cross-instance login failures w. EraseSystemHealthPhantomRecords

    I have unique service accounts set up for multiple instances on the same SQL Server 2012.
    When step 3 of the inbuilt syspolicy_purge_history job(Erase Phantom System Health Records) runs, it appears to attempt to run against every instance on the server despite being passed the instance path!
    The SQLServer's powershell script call:
    if ('$(ESCAPE_SQUOTE(INST))' -eq 'MSSQLSERVER') {$a = '\DEFAULT'} ELSE {$a = ''};
    (Get-Item SQLSERVER:\SQLPolicy\$(ESCAPE_NONE(SRVR))$a).EraseSystemHealthPhantomRecords()
    so with instances SERVER\X this runs as...
    (Get-Item SQLSERVER:\SQLPolicy\SERVER\X).EraseSystemHealthPhantomRecords()
    SERVER\X's job will run and I will see login failures in the error logs of SERVER\Y and SERVER\Z for the service account set up for instance X.
    It seems Microsoft's only 'accepted solution' to this problem is for me to compromise my security by escalating the access of these service accounts?
    Has anyone else run into and corrected this failure?

    Hi Atombath,
    When you install multiple instances on one Server, and  the SQL Server’s powershell scripts are the same in inbuilt syspolicy_purge_history job steps. However, when you start PowerShell by right clicking
     syspolicy_purge_history job, you will find it will point to their own instance. I do a test in my SQL Server 2012,
     it will not across instance to collect the error logs. So I recommend you use its original powershell scripts for the syspolicy_purge_history job.
    Sometimes, if you run the syspolicy_purge_history job on a clustered instance, the syspolicy_purge_history SQL Server Agent job may fail due to using the computer node name instead of the virtual server name. For more information, see:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/955726/en-us
    In addition, you can use different service account for your multiple SQL Server instances on the same Server. And make sure the accounts that you created get added to the sysadmin fixed server role, the accounts are also set in the three Agent roles (SqlAgentUserRole,
    SqlAgentReaderRole, and SqlAgentOperatorRole).

  • SQL Server 2012 syspolicy_purge_history fails step 3 "Erase Phantom System Health Records."

    I recently installed SQL Server 2012 Ent (x64). The install is a stand alone default instance.
    The syspolicy_purge_history job fails on step three with the following error:
    Executed as user: <DomainName>\sql_xxx_agt_svc. A job step received an error at line 1 in a PowerShell script. The corresponding line is 'set-executionpolicy RemoteSigned -scope process -Force'. Correct the script and reschedule the job. The error
    information returned by PowerShell is: 'Security error.  '.  Process Exit Code -1.  The step failed.
    Here is the code that is in the step:
    if ('$(ESCAPE_SQUOTE(INST))' -eq 'MSSQLSERVER') {$a = '\DEFAULT'} ELSE {$a = ''};
    (Get-Item SQLSERVER:\SQLPolicy\$(ESCAPE_NONE(SRVR))$a).EraseSystemHealthPhantomRecords()
    The domain user is the account that SQL Agent is running as.
    What permissions need to be granted to this account?
    Here is the link to the Connect post:
    https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/754063/sql-server-2012-syspolicy-purge-history-job-step-3-fails-with-security-error

    I'm putting this in the connect post as well, but putting here in case somoene else comes across it.
    I was having the same problem with the syspolicy_purge_history job right after a standalone SQL 2012 (with SP1 and cu4,
    11.0.3368.0 (X64)) install that happened to be on a cluster but was not going to be a clustered instance. After trying all the different suggestions here around the ExecutionPolicy, I was still getting nowhere.
    Turns out, having a named isntance with a static port number and the SQL Browser service disabled was causing my problems. Apparently that was not allowing PowerShell to find the SQL instance. When I would navigate the SQLSERVER:\SQLPolicy folder
    in PowerShell (sqlps), I could get to the server root, but not the instance. If I even tried to list the subdirectories under the server folder, I would get an error:
    PS SQLSERVER:\> cd .\SQLPolicy\SRVR
    PS SQLSERVER:\SQLPolicy\SRVR> ls
    WARNING: 'INST' not available: Failed to connect to server. --> A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)
    PS SQLSERVER:\SQLPolicy\SRVR> cd .\INST
    cd : Failed to connect to server .
    At line:1 char:3
    + cd <<<< .\INST
    + CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [Set-Location], ConnectionFailureException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Common.ConnectionFailureException,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.SetLocationCommand
    To solve this issue, I had to open SQL Server Configuration Manager and create an alias under the SQL Native Client 11.0 Configuration (I didn't need to set the 32-bit one):
    Alias
    [server name]\[instance name]
    Port
    [my static port]
    Protocol
    TCP/IP
    Server
    [server name]\[instance name]
    Once this was done, I was able to set the ExecutionPolicy registry settings, and the job completed. Here are my registry settings:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\PowerShell\1\ShellIds\Microsoft.PowerShell\ExecutionPolicy = Restricted
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\PowerShell\1\ShellIds\Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.PowerShell.sqlps110\ExecutionPolicy = RemoteSigned
    From PowerShell (as Admin):
    PS C:\Windows\system32> Get-ExecutionPolicy -list
    Scope ExecutionPolicy
    MachinePolicy Undefined
    UserPolicy Undefined
    Process Undefined
    CurrentUser Undefined

    Naomi N
    T-SQL: Random Equal Distribution
    Jinchun Chen: "Nice."
    JS: "The crucial thing about such a procedure is to check the data before the randomization and afterwards. You might encounter situations where "John Smith" and "John Meyers" might have exchanged their First names
    which is technically correct, but logically and obviously wrong. So make sure that there is one additional check afterwards that makes sure that eventual privicy concerns will not survive the random process. Normally this would not happen, but I have already
    checked this is one of my older blog entries, where we exactly had that problem obfuscating data to make that operational and live data will not be recognized afterwards. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/jenss/archive/2009/04/08/when-is-random-random-enough.aspx In
    addition to this some attributes are sticky to each other like gender and First Name. You also have to make sure that your distribution might change statistically in relation to other attributes."
    Richard Mueller: "Very instructive. Perhaps the See Also section should have more links."
    Ed Price: "Great formatting and topic! Could benefit from more descriptions. Great article!"

    JS: "For me not using this sort of things regularly, I don't see the problem and the benefit. I have no doubt that this is a brilliant explanations how to cope with a problem, but for me this is missing yet the red line. More pictures
    would be helpful describing the problem and outlining the results produced."
    Richard Mueller: "Needs more explanation, and perhaps an example. There should be links to relevant references."
    Ed Price: "Good job on the opening descriptions! Could benefit from breaking up and explaining the code more. Images and references would be helpful. Good article!"
    Hasham Niaz
    DataCleanUp() Function Implementation in MS SQL Server
    Jinchun Chen: "Good."
    JS: "-Does actually not work for Case senstive areas where I want to remoce certain Upper/lower case characters. This might be not interesting for some people, but is extremely important and relevant to other people. The limitation is
    that I can´t pass multiple values to be removed from the string, right ? Could this be implemented as well as many people wash out their data from unused / unimportant control characters. "I have tested it on a table which has got more than 11 Million
    rows and it executed fine returning the correct results. Since this is a scalar function you will notice decrease in performance." Once you want to maintain the old data and keep the new cleaned up one seperately, you could suggest something like persisting
    the data in a computed column which could be indexed and then help improving the performance. This would not be the case for any adhoc queries though."
    Richard Mueller: "Very clever and also very useful. There should be links to references, for example to explain the PATINDEX function."
    Ed Price: "Great job on this article! Very clear and well executed! See JS's comments for some thoughts about what's possible. Great article!"
    Manoj Pandey: "A good utility Function that I can use and tweak for my future needs, Thanks."

  • Failure to install SQL Server 2012 SP1 CU8/9 with a "Failed to retrieve data for this request." error

    Hi all,
    Has anyone come across SQL Server 2012 SP1 CU8/9 failing to install with a “Failed to retrieve data for this request.” error.
    The error is too generic for a useful search on web, for me at least anyway.
    Had no problems patching a whole bunch of other servers in the same environment.
    I’m no good at reading these error logs. For some reason the primary replica is referenced in the detailed log???
    The CU8/9 patch has been run by both Domain Admins and local Admin with no luck.
    We are trying to patch a secondary failover replica. (SharePoint 2013 is installed on this server.)
    This is from the summary log:
    Overall summary:
      Final   result:                    The patch installer has failed to update the shared features. To determine   the reason for failure,

    Hello SQL Ranger,
    Thanks for posting the detailed log. I dont have exact solution for this but I can give you some hint what could be reason patch has failed below message points to fact that there is some issue with account which is used to install CU patch.Have alook at
    below log.It says that when patch was trying to get details from other node in cluster it was not able to.

    IMO I strongly feel it is issue with the account. Microsoft has also documented about this for SQL Server 2008 .Have a look at following links
    http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-US;2000257
    Please also assign privilege mentioned in below link

    Hope this helps

  • Setting up Multi server environment in Sql Server 2012 - Enlist Failed Error

    I am trying to Configure the Master target server / Multi server environment in Sql Server 2012.
    I changed :
     - `MSXENCryptChannnelOptions`-->Changed from 2 to 0
     - `AllowDownloadedJobsToMatchProxyName` - changed from 0 to 1 on the target
    When I run the wizard I am getting below error
    >MSX Enlist failed for Job Server 'MasterServerName'
    >The enlist operation Failed(Reason:SQL Server Agent Error: Unable to connect to MSX 'MasterServerName'(Microsoft Sql Server, Error : 22026)
    They both servers SQL Agents are running on the same windows service account.
    Any Suggestions on how to fix this?
