Schedule a SSRS report as step in SQL SERVER agent

Hi All,
The requirement is that can we schedule a job as a step in SQL Server Agent.
Scenario: I got a SQL Agent job which got multiple steps. Executing SP's, running SSIS etc. The last setp i want to setup is run a SSRS report where it gives the report of all the steps. It is like a summary report.
Is that is possible. If so hw can i achieve it.
Thanks in advance.

You can use rs utility to render reports using below script file
http://skamie.wordpress.com/2010/08/11/using-rs-exe-to-render-ssrs-reports/
and call rs utility from bat file or using xp_cmdshell.
Then include this script as last step in your job.

Management Studio Fails when added Integration Services step to SQL Server Agent Job

Hi,
I have two new servers I've setup with Windows Server 2012, SQL Server 2012 SP1, Visual Studio 2012 SP4. I've previously been on SQL 2008 and VS 2008 so this is new to me.
I am finding SSMS is throwing an exception on both machines when i do the following:
1. Go to SQL Server Agent | Jobs
2. Create a new Job.
3. Select Steps and click New Step
4. Change the job type to SQL Server Integration Services Package.
Following error occurs:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
The type initializer for '<Module>' threw an exception. (SqlManagerUI)
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
The C++ module failed to load.
(DTEParseMgd)
Index was outside the bounds of the array. (DTEParseMgd)
I also find if I take an existing job with SSIS package steps and attempt to edit those steps the same message appears. This issue happens on both my servers as they have been configured almost identically. This doesn't occur when selecting any other job
type.
I've also tried installing cumulative update 8 in a hope that this may fix it but with no success.
As my entire environment is based around SQL Agents running SSIS i'm a little bit concerned, especially since I have some tight deadlines getting these servers running.
I have found nothing relating to this issue. Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I hadn't installed CU3 however as a test i tried installing CU4 and this didn't help. Since my first emails i have more issues that have brought a complete hault to the upgrade project.
If i double click on a package to run it manually I basically get the same issue. This means i have no way of running any packages except throught VS.
I've also found that regardless of the order of the software installs it still fails. It's related to SP1 of SQL and SP4 of VS.
I'm on Server 2012. When install in the following order SQL 2012, SQL SP1, VS2012, BIDS, VS SP4 i have no problem until VS SP4 is installed. If i install VS SP4 then BIDS it also fails at the last step. If i install all the VS and BIDS software first, then
SQL then SQL SP1 it fails at the SQL SP1 step.
This means i could actually install everything and either ignore the SQL SP1 or the VS SP4 and i'd be fine however this is not really a solution as i will never be able to patch the software and once live this is very dangerous.
I am still surprised there is no obvious solution to this. I'm only installing MS software on a fresh box and only installing 5 pieces of software (including the SPs). I would have though if this was an issue others would have come across it too.
Has anyone else installed all these components and got them working on the same OS. I believe early on in my testing i installed these in Windows Server 2008 and didn't have the issue.
Regards.
Simon.

Report Schedule - SQL Server Agent

Hi,
We have few SSRS reports which has to run daily after the data is loaded in the database.
I scheduled the reports on timely based and got the Job Id's using SQL server agent and using SP_START_JOBs stored procedure to run.
But the problem is it is creating multiple files one for time and one for SP_START_JOBS procedure.
Any idea how to avoid this?
I really appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Sarah

If you're going to schedule your SSRS jobs using the agent, don't schedule them in SSRS using subscriptions as well...

Sharepoint 2013 SSRS Interaction with Sql Server 2012 Reporting Services connecting to Sql Server 2008 R2 database

Hi
I'm working on upgrading sharepoint 2010 to sharepoint 2013 with sql server 2008 r2. I've ran into some problems but have been able to get a test farm upgraded. However to run SSRS 2013 it seems Sql Server 2012 Reporting Services are required. Upgrading
to a full sql server 2012 database isn't an option. I know that sql server 2012 reporting services can use sql server 2008 r2 as a catalog and content database so I was wondering could this be a workaround? Importantly would I need a separate machine/virtual
machine to host sql server 2012 reporting services? or could it live on the sql server 2008 r2 machine? Any pointers appreciated. Thanks Dan

Remember that SSRS must be deployed on the SharePoint server. Having said that, yes you can install SSRS 2012 SP1 on a server running SQL 2008 R2. And yes, you can use 2008 R2 as your Database Engine server while SSRS 2012 SP1 runs on the SharePoint server.

SSIS Package Fails when Scheduled as a SQL Server Agent Job

I have an SSIS package that runs without any problems when executed through BIDS.
However, when I schedule the SSIS as an Agent job, it fails completely or part way through. When it partially runs, the part that it is failing on is a Script Task that moves the source data file to an archive folder (on the same server).
I have tried using my domain account as the owner of the job, then the job fails straight off and I get an error:
Unable to determine if the owner (Domain\MyID) of job JobName has server access (reason: Could not obtain information about Windows NT group/user 'Domain\MyID'
If I change the owner to the 'sa' account , then the job partially runs, but then fails because 'sa' is a SQL account and does not have access to the filesystem.
I have managed to get it to work by using the SQL2008_Local account and granting modify permissions to the affected folders.
My question is - what is the advised way of doing this?
Thanks
Gary

Hi Garyv.King,
When you see a SSIS package fails running in a SQL Agent job, you need to first consider the following conditions:
1. The user account that is used to run the package under SQL Server Agent differs from the original package author.
2. The user account does not have the required permissions to make connections or to access resources outside the SSIS package.
For more detailed information about the issue, please following this KB article:
An SSIS package does not run when you call the SSIS package from a SQL Server Agent job step
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918760
You can check SQL Server Agent’s activity logs, Windows Event logs and SSIS logs to get more clues. Also the tool Process Monitor is helpful to track the cause of registry or file access related issues.
The following 4 issues are common encountered in the SSIS forum.
1. The package's Protection Level is set to EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey but your SQL Server Agent service account is different from the SSIS package creator.
2. Data source connection issue.
3. File or registry access permission issue.
4. No 64-bit driver issue.
For more information about it, please see:

SQL Server Agent Job Failing on Job Step

Hi,
Firstly, apologies if this post has been made in the wrong group. Running SQL Server 2012. I'm attempting to add a SQL Server Agent Job which calls a stored procedure that sends a Database Mail message. The SQL Server and SQL Server Agent
both run under the NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE account. The Database Mail service has been enabled, and a public profile created. When running the stored procedure manually, I receive no errors - everything runs as expected and I do receive an
email containing the expected information.
I've created the job, job step, job schedule, attached the schedule to the job, and assigned the job to server, all using T-SQL without error. I've also enabled the mail profile on the SQL Server Agent, and I know that part is working because when
the job fails, I get an email notification of the failure.
I've checked the command text in the job step and parsed it within the SQL Job Step Edit window to confirm, it shows as parsing correctly. However, when I manually run the job itself, I get the following:
Execution of job failed. See the history log for details.
I check the history log and it shows:
[474] Unable to refresh Database Mail profile Database Mail Profile. (reason: ) (Not a typo, the history log shows no reason)
[260] Unable to start mail session.
[396] An idle CPU condition has not been defined - OnIdle job schedules will have no effect
The command text on the failing job step is as follows:
DECLARE @date [varchar](10)
SET @date = CAST(GETDATE() AS [varchar](10))
EXEC [dbo].[GetExceptions]
@company = 'MyCompany',
@checkDate = @date
With regard to the date value being passed as varchar: This stored procedure is used to check for exceptions against multiple databases on this server (hence the company parameter) via dynamic SQL. I'd much prefer to use proper data typing but this
is the only way I could get it to work.
Does anyone have any suggestions on anything else I could check, or insights into why this is failing? Any help is greatly appreciated!
Best Regards
Brad

I am not sure if this really helps but I would do follow the below steps:
1. make sure sql server agent has database mail enabled(rigt click on server agent--properties--alert system--enable database mail and choose right profile.) and RESTART THE SQL SERVER AGENT.(i know you said it i working, but sometimes, restart the
sql server agent might fix)
2. check agent error log and check if any error messages.
3. run the command text you mentioned in sql server and see if it is working.(i know you said it is working but just to make sure).
4. make sure sql server agent service user has permissions to run database mail in msdb. check this https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms186358.aspx
5. Check the output from select * from msdb.dbo.sysmail_log and if it says anything
6.it does not look like the job log is getting truncated but to make sure, get the job step output to a text file.to do this, edit the job step and on the job step properties click on advanced, enter path to the output file. this will give the complete
output for the step.
Hope it Helps!!

[Forum FAQ] How do I disable all subscriptions without disabling Reporting Services and SQL Server Agent?

Introduction
There is the scenario that users configured hundreds of subscriptions for reports. Now they want to disable all the subscriptions, but Reporting Services and SQL Server Agent service should be enable, so the subscriptions will not delivery reports to users
and users could run the reports and create jobs on the server.
Solution
To achieve this requirement, we need to list all subscriptions and their schedules by running query, then use loop statement to disable all the subscription schedules by Job name.
On the Start menu, point to All Programs, point to Microsoft SQL Server instance, and then click SQL Server Management Studio.
Type Server name and select Authentication, click Connect.
Click New Query in menu to open a new Query Editor window.
List all subscriptions and their schedules by running the following query:
Use ReportServer
go
SELECT   c.[Name] ReportName,
s.ScheduleID JobName,
ss.[Description] SubscriptionDescription,
ss.DeliveryExtension SubscriptionType,
c.[Path] ReportFolderPath,
row_number() over(order by s.ScheduleID) as rn
into
#Temp
FROM
ReportSchedule rs
INNER JOIN Schedule s ON rs.ScheduleID = s.ScheduleID
INNER JOIN Subscriptions ss ON rs.SubscriptionID = ss.SubscriptionID
INNER JOIN [Catalog] c ON rs.ReportID = c.ItemID AND ss.Report_OID = c.ItemID
select * from #temp
Use the loop statement to disable all the subscription schedules by Job name:
DECLARE
@count INT,
@maxCount INT
SET @COUNT=1
SELECT @maxCount=MAX(RN)
FROM
#temp
DECLARE
@job_name VARCHAR(MAX)
WHILE @COUNT <=@maxCount
BEGIN
SELECT @job_name=jobname FROM #temp WHERE RN=@COUNT
exec msdb..sp_update_job @job_name = @job_name,@enabled = 0
SET @COUNT=@COUNT+1   P
RINT @job_name
END
PRINT @COUNT

Thanks,
Is this a supported scenario, or does it use unsupported features?
For example, can we call exec [ReportServer].dbo.AddEvent @EventType='TimedSubscription', @EventData='b64ce7ec-d598-45cd-bbc2-ea202e0c129d'
in a supported way?

Schedule SSIS packages as job in SQL Server Agent errors

Hi, I am using SQL Server 2008 R2 and created few SSIS packages and schedule them using SQL Server Agent and every time I try to schedule packages via SQL Server Agent my jobs keep failing. I am using domain/ione as the owner and when I invoke the job on
ServerA let's say and the job gets executed by domain/ServerA$ and fails as it does not have enough privileges. How do I fix this issue firstly without the proxy and why is the job being executed by domain/ServerA$ when the owner & user who invokes
it is domain/ione?
Thanks in advance............
Ione

Hi Ione,
The owner of any SQL jobs should be SA or any other non-expiring account
If you do not want the proxy used, then add the needed priveleges.
The owner of the job is one, the SSIS step gets executed by the account the Agent is running under.

Obtain Job invoker for a SSIS job scheduled in SQL Server Agent

Hello,
I was required to tell the job runner of a particular SSIS job scheduled in SQL Server Agent (in SQL Server Management Studio 2008 R2). I noticed that after running the job, a record can be found in msdb.dbo.sysjobhistory in the [message] columm saying that
the job is invoked by 'Domain\User'. Is there anyway I can acquire and upload that information into an audit table by adding some additional script into the job? I heard about using token to get job_ID, but what about the actual user name who runs
the job?
Thanks

Just add retry attempts to whatever number you want (2 as per your original explanation) in Job step properties as below
Have a logic to include a delay of 10 mins . You can make use of WAITFOR function for that

HOw to avoid DeadLocks when you schedule a Sql Server Agent Job and calling SSIS packages

Hi All,
I have scheduled 2 packages in in Sql Server Agent jobs .
First job which is having Package 1 executing at 11 AM and where I am inserting the data in the table.
Second job which is having Package 2 executing at 12 AM and where I am updating the data in the table based on the first job inserted records.
When I am executing my first job it taking more time and executing till 12 AM and from 12 AM my job 2 also starting ,so getting deadlocks conflicts because inserting happening from job1 and updating happening from Job 2.
How to avoid deadlocks and fix the issue.
Please Suggest .
Thanks & Regards,
Anand

Hi Anand,
Here is another solution, you can set the Job 2 not to run based on a schedule, and create another SQL Server Agent Job which starts at 12 AM and run with a specified time interval to execute a SQL statement in which you do the following steps:
1. Get the status information of Job 1 using the statement:
DECLARE @i int;
EXEC @i = msdb.dbo.sp_help_job @job_name = ‘Job Name'
2. If the value of @i is 1 which means the status of job 1 is success and current time is, then start the job 2. So, the statement is as follows:
IF @I = 1
EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_start_job @job_name= ‘Job Name’

Reporting Services 2012 for SharePoint and SQL Server Agent "Subscriptions and Alerts"

After installing Reporting Services for SharePoint (Denali) in my test farm, I'm trying to configure the "SQL Server Agent" access for Reporting Services. From Central Admin I'm going to the Reporting Service applicaiton configuration screen and selecting
"Provision Subscriptions and Alerts". I've tried both options on this screen. I've manually executed the "download sql script" in SQL Server, as well as entering a user with SQL sys admin rights on the SQL server into the login fields on the screen.
The role and permissions have been created for the application pool service account, but Reporting Services is still trying to connect with the annonymous login because I'm getting the following alert each time I open the "Provision Subscriptions and Alerts"
screen:
Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON'
The "status" on the screen still shows "SQL Server Agent State cannot be determined". Has anyone else seen this?
Thanks!!

Thanks for your reply!
1) Looks like the new Reporting Services does not run as a Windows Service so it's not listed in the "Configure Service Accounts" pulldown. As a result, I don't see how to set the service account. It's only assigned to an application pool.
I installed it into an existing application pool and that application pool "is" in the list and has a domain service account already assigned.
2) Which users need to be in here in order to configure the "Provision Subscriptions and Alerts" screen? I already have the farm admin account which is the account I use when running Central Admin.
3) As mentioned in #1, I've installed Reporting Services into an existing application pool with other service apps.
4) This link is for Reporting Services 2008 R2 which is very different install process. But I did follow the SQL Server Reporting Services 2012 RC0 installation instructions and the Reporting Services is functioning correctly with no errors.
I'm just not able to configure the sceduling the alerting with interfaces with the SQL Server Agent.
Thanks!

Hello Kamlesh,
There is no expectation that the ActiveX viewer (RDC?) from CR8.5 will work in any version of Visual Studio .NET. There is also no expectation that the ActiveX viewer from CR8.5 will work on a machine with a 64 bit operating system.
You're using VS2008. You should migrate to the bundled edition of CR for VS2008 (v10.5), the ReportDocument object, and the .NET Windows form viewer or Web form viewer.

How to run a SQL Server Agent job step on certain days/frequency

I've a SQL Server Agent job. One of the requirement is that a particular step should only run on certain frequency i.e. Certain Date and time. Any suggestions how can that be done?
GBM

yes
1. Make first step as a Transact SQL step. Keep command as below
IF DAY(GETDATE()) = <Your date value>
AND DATEPART(hh,GETDATE()) = <your time hour)
AND DATEPART(minute,GETDATE()) = <your time minute)
SELECT 1
ELSE
RAISERROR 'Job cant be run at this time'
Then for job step properties set the following properties in advanced tab
This would make sure it will quit the job without executing other core steps untill it reaches the required day and time
You can add more conditions in IF based on requirement like if you want time to be on certain second or month to be particular value etc
