I have 2 SSIS packages started by a single SQL Server Agent Job.
The first package took approximatively 2h30 and the second failed after 0:50.
Unfortunately, I don't know where or why it failed but I want to first check if there are some limitations regarding the maximum execution time allotted to an SSIS package or to a SQL Server Job.
Is there anything like that?

I ran an ssis package in IntegrationRuntime on data factory.
The package is hosted on an azure sql database.
Its a very basic data movement from source to sql database table.
I killed off the ssis execution about half way through its run, but the table is still getting rows inserted. This occurred for about 5 minutes after the ssis package was killed within sql server.
is this expected behavior?
I have 6 ssis packages. All packages are for loading flat files into sql server table. I have created a sql server agent job to automate the flat file load process and put all packes exxecution in different steps. If the first file fails to load into the SQL server table, all the succeeding steps (packages) should not execute. Can I create a transaction to in sql server agent to do this?
Thank you for your help and time.
Change your job step to "Quit the job reporting failure" for the On Failure setting. No need for transactions at all.
Simple question: how does the execution of a ssis package differ when using the SQL Server 2012 Integration Package Utility versus when using the 2012 SQL Server Agent to execute a package? (holding all else constant within deployment- ie using the local file system in both cases)
Thank you.
I am asking because I have an externally referenced dll in my ssis package script that successfully executes with the package utility but not when deployed to the server agent within SQL server 2012 mgmt studio.
If you are sure that the agent service is running on an account that has proper permissions, check to ensure that you are executing the same runtime version for both instances. Your driver may be 64 bit and incompatible with 32 bit runtime and vice-versa.
There is an option in "execution options" of the agent job step that will allow you to select the 32 bit runtime, if needed.
If you are unable to get the "SQL Server Integration Services Package" job step type to work, you can change to using the "Operating system (CmdExec)" job step type and simply build a command using the utility executable (dtexec) and copying the info from the "Command line" tab of the utility. Some prefer this method of executing SSIS packages with the agent as it provides cleaner maintenance of the jobs. Searching the google for this topic will bring up articles like this: http://bi-polar23.blogspot.com/2008/06/ssis-and-sql-server-agent-choosing.html
Hope this helps.
I have created a package using SSIS 2012 that uses data mining query & runs perfectly well in SQL Server Data Tools.
The problem is that it does not finish running when scheduled on SQL Agent. The package runs about 60 seconds in data tools and it never finishes when scheduled.
I have enabled logging but nothing is logged while running as a job.
Please advise.
Update 1:
Error message: To run a SSIS package outside of SQL Server Data Tools you must install Pivot of Integration Services or higher.
Update 2:
Package ran by setting delay validation to true on data mining query.
However, the job on sql agent runs in funny way every second job takes 12 minutes to run while every other one takes 1 minute to run.
You do not have the SSIS bits installed on that machine. Find your installation media and click back through the install process. Ensure that you have selected the SQL Server Integration Services Service (isn't that a mouthful).

On our SQL Server theres a SQL Job which is ran every hour. On one particular hour it doesn't seem like the SQL Job was ran, and that was due to the SQL Server Agent being stopped during a backup.
If SQL Server Agent has been stopped, are the jobs which are supposed to be ran during the time its stopped simply ignored, or ran later when SQL Server Agent is running again?
They are ignored.
You can set up a schedule to start automatically when SQL Server Agent starts if you want to do some custom logic here such as checking for missing runs (and you can assign multiple schedules to a job)
