Using CNAME in Agent Job

Hi Guys,
Why does not SQL agent support CNAME of the SSIS server, what does it expects only HostNames?
Regards,

Is this instance name are host name ?
SQL agent support CNAME of the SSIS server ?? what it mean exactlly ?
Are you talking about connecting SSIS from host ? and why its taking only particular instance name ?

  • Error: Failed to acquire connection while exporting a file using SSIS package through SQl Server Agent job.

    Hi Team,
    I am running a sql server job which is loading data to a sharepoint document library.File is an excel format and is getting loaded
    when executed through SSDT solution .But when i am using an SQL Agent job to pick up the file it doesnt get the path and agent job fails with the error "Failed to acquire connection".I have deployed the SSIS Package through SQL Server 2012 deployment
    methodologies.
    I am not able to trace the error of loading data from a sharepoint library.library. Sql agent jobs works fine when i give local path.The
    account which is running the sql agent job is the same who has access to document library.I also tried to run the job through proxy account. I am using a xml configuraion to store my credentials.I am able to palce the same file to a network drive in the same
    server through sql server agent job. The only problem is when I am trying to load the file to a sharepoint folder.
    Thanks,
    Arsa..

    Is that the WebDAV method that you are suggesting here to map the n/w drive?
    Its kind of webdav but you will be using windows nw drive to store data
    yes, I am able to create the file to D: , but didn't check with the C:.
    Try with c:, as c: require special permisssions

  • Error while executing SSIS package which contains Script component through SQL Server Agent Job

    Hello All,
    I have written one SSIS 2012 package which is fetching records from CSV and put it into staging DB and from staging DB , using SSIS script component task, I am inserting data into Dynamics CRM. So far it is working fine when

    domain\user account has not proper rights
    That being said, often SSIS jobs require a proxy to be runnable and this is how you make one up

  • Schedule Agent Job as per calendar

    Hi All,
    I have a requiremnt which needs to be automated using Sql Server Agent Job..I am not sure how it can be done.. I have a calendar table which consists 5yrs of dates column.. I need to schedule a job depending on those dates.. 
    How can i achieve this using Sql Server Agent Job. I know we can write a step but how to do it is my question. Let me know if i am not clear in asking my questions..
    Thanks Folks
    Thanks, Anji

    Hi Anji
    According to steps you have described(idea is to fail STEP1 for date which are not present in Job_Schedule table)
    Step1 : Create a STEP1 with TSQL code as below
    IF NOT EXISTS(select Rundate from Job_Schedule where RunDate = convert(varchar(10),GETDATE(),121) and Isprocessed=0)
    RAISERROR('Job date is not Job_Schedule table',16,1)
    and make sure "On  Failure" is set to "Quit the job reporting success" for STEP1
    STEP2 : you can configure your ETL package
    STEP 3 : you can update the Job_Schedule using below query
    IF EXISTS(select Rundate from Job_Schedule where RunDate = convert(varchar(10),GETDATE(),121) and Isprocessed=0)
    UPDATE Job_Schedule SET Isprocessed = 1 where RunDate = convert(varchar(10),GETDATE(),121) Isprocessed=0
    you could also include this step in your ETL package too, in that way you can take different path when current date is not present in Job_Schedule
    I actually suggest this method like for a store procedure configured in SQL JOB, it is much simple when compare to ETL JOB
    IF EXISTS(select Rundate from Job_Schedule where RunDate = convert(varchar(10),GETDATE(),121) and Isprocessed=0)
    EXEC SP1
    please try to include STEP1 in you ETL package if it is feasible
    Thanks

  • SQL Agent Job failing - not using credentials in the config file for Data source

    Hi
    We have an SSIS pkg, that is secheduled as SQL Agent job using proxy account. The pkg contanins data source for connecting different SQL servers and the proxy account do not have access to the external DBs. The data source credentials are stored in the Config
    file.
    Why the job is not using the credentials in the config file and try to use the proxy account and failing.
    Do the proxy account need access to all the external dbs in the pkg, and then what is the purpose of the config file.
    I am sorry, i am not SSIS person trying to understand. If any one can explain tha will be great!!
    Thank you!

  • 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 - Change Config File Path LOCATION in SQL Agent Job Step (NOT USING DTEXEC)

    SSISers;
    I am not new to ssis but am trying to deal with promoting of ssis config files differently for a specific project. We are using SQL 2008 R2.
    As a standared pattern used for years, we just use SQL Agent, build a job step for the ssis package, add the ssis package as SQL Integration Services Package type from fileshare (not using Integration Services), and add the necessary production
    config files in the configutation tab of the job step. Easy.  We do not execute our packages with DTEXEC command line.
    A new project has the developers leaving the config files in the package - not removing the config files for deployment. Is there a way to override JUST THE CONFIG FILE PATH LOCATION in the job step for ssis package? Remember, we are NOT using dtexec. 
    I was told that /SET might do it but I do not see a good example anywhere of hooking this in and how it works for a CONFIG FILE PATH LOCATION - I see variable overrides but not CONFIG FILE PATH LOCATION. The packages were written with Absolute config file
    path and not Relative path.
    Please understand that my goal is to let them leave the packages as is, we move the config files to the production sever and all we have to do is flip the location of where the config files are sitting for the ssis pacakge to look for them.  We would
    rather NOT have to use DTEXEC command  line with the job step for reasons that I do no need to get into on this forum.
    Any suggestions are appreciated.

    Hi mg30,
    There is no way to overwrite the XML configurations file just through modifying the SQL Server Agent job steps.  The Dtexec utility will apply the default package configurations for the second time after applying the options specified in the command
    lines or other package configurations configured in the job step.
    If the package is not deployed/installed, the Dtexec utility looks for the XML configurations file according to the file path defined in the Package Configurations Organizer window. In this situation, you need to either disable the package configurations
    or modify the XML file path in the BIDS.
    If the package is already deployed/installed, you need to modify the package as above or re-specify the install folder for the package configurations file.

  • How to Create a SQL Agent Job For A SSIS Package with Sql Server Authentication

    Hi ALl,
    I have a SSIS package which basically has a data flow task in which i pull the data from one server and copy it into another server and my source server is the one where i dont have windows authentication and i have to only use a sql server authentication
    . This package runs fine if i click the server connection properties type the password and save it.
    Now, my task is to set up a sql agent job which basically uses a proxy account and takes this package from the file system and runs it.But when i try to run this package, its failing with an error saying 
    "Login Failed For rpt5user" where rpt5user is the username for my sql server authentication of the source connection.
    Can someone please help me with any suggestions on how to do this?
    I have heard that we can achieve it by using xml config file which i have never used and i am trying to google around but for no luck.
    So, If someone can please throw any suggestions or ideas on this it would be great.
    Thanks

    You need to add password as a config item and set it from the file source or sql table
    see this as an example

  • Pass value from SQL agent job step

    Hi 
    I have created one SSIS package and I am scheduling the same using SQL Agent job. Now I want to pass one value from SQL job agent and want to use that value in SSIS package and then run that package.  Can someone point to the solution.
    Aniruddha http://aniruddhathengadi.blogspot.com/

    I have created one parameter on SSIS package named strValue and assigned a empty value "". After that I have created one SQL job and step wherein I have set the value to "Nike" for parameter under Parameters tab.
    Now I am expecting Nike value which I have set on SQL job step should get reflected on SSIS package when I am running my job. Am I doing anything wrong ?

    is to have an email notification sent when any SQL Agent job fails on a specific group of computers. However, I am not familiar enough with what "Last Run Status" is actually monitoring and if it will do what I am looking for. Does this monitor
    check the job status of any agent job on the target group? I tried setting up a job for it to fail, which it does fail, but it does not generate an alert. Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks.

    1) For monitoring SQL server job status, you can refer to the following blog
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/kevinholman/archive/2011/08/05/how-to-monitor-sql-agent-jobs-using-the-sql-management-pack-and-opsmgr.aspx
    2) For troubleshoot: Make sure that your SQL agent job is discovered, you may find the discovered job under Microsoft SQL Server --> SQL Agent --> SQL agent job status. By default, the discovery is disabled and you should enabled the discovery by using
    override.

    Thanks. So I enabled Agent Job discovery for the systems that I want. It discovered those objects. Now, I still cannot get the alerting to work. I can see the Health State of the job change to a Warning, indicating "Last Run Status" equals Failed, but
    it is not generating an alert. I set Overrides (Generates Alert = True) on a Group that included one of the job objects, nothing. I also set the same Override directly on the job object and I still do not receive an alert. Any ideas? I
    noticed someone in the comments mentioned in the blog you linked, a similar issue, except with the Job Duration monitor. However, he was able to get alerts to generate by setting the Override directly on the Job object and noted that it is not a
    feasible solution due to the number of jobs he wants to monitor. Again, I tried the same, but still could not get alerts. That solution would not be acceptable for me either because of the number of jobs that I would have to set individual Overrides for.

  • Error authenticating proxy while running agent job

    I am trying to schedule a SSIS2014 package via SQL Server Agent job. Both SSIS and SSMS are running on my local machine in the same domain. I am running SSMS with the same user
    Domain\Admin which is the creator of the SSIS package. SSMS 32-Bit and SSIS 32-Bit are running on Windows 7 64-Bit machine. I can run the package within SSIS without problems.
    When I use a proxy account to run the job step, the following message occurs:
    Unable to start execution of step 1 (reason: Error authenticating proxy `Domain\Admin`, system error: Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password.). The step failed.
    The proxy account uses the credentials identity Domain\Admin. Since the password fields for credential properties in SSMS cannot be left blank, I typed any password although my corresponding windows account has no password. So as mentioned above
    it's the same user account that created the SSIS package since Domain\Admin is stated in the CreatorName property of the SSIS package.
    With this proxy, I tried to run SSIS jobs using the package ProtectionLevel's
    EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey and EncryptSensitiveWithPassword. Running the package manually within SSDT without problems, but from SSMS agent job the same error message appears. I tried the package sources "File System" and, after
    importing the package to MSDB, "SQL Server" and "SSIS Package Store". But exactly the same error message appears with each method.
    Task manager shows that SSMS is running in administrator mode. Using Windows Component Services I added DCOM permissions for
    Domain\Admin to start and activate "Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services 12.0" from local. But the same error message appears. So in my opinion it's a problem with SSMS user account permissions (???) but unfortunately I don't know
    what exactly to do here. I tried the following:
    In the system database MSDB (full path: Databases / System Databases / MSDB / Security / Logins) I assigned all available role memberships (Including db_ssisoperator, db_ssisltduser, db_ssisadmin) to
    Domain\Admin.
    In server security (full path: Security / Logins) I assigned all available server roles. In the tab User Mapping, I assigned the MSDB database.
    Still the same error message appears when I try to run the job. Does anybody have some ideas what I can try?

    If you use the Agent then set the package protection to "Rely on server".
    Then Domain/Admin is probably not an actual proxy but the account the Agent is running under, in this or even any case follow http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/2163/running-a-ssis-package-from-sql-server-agent-using-a-proxy-account/ to create the
    proper proxy for the packages.

  • 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

    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.
