A number of SSIS packages have been deployed to the SSI-catalog and are scheduled through SQL Agent jobs.
On the SSRS-server I have created a report that gives me insight in the executions of all SSIS-packages run on the SSIS-server.
I have created a job (Send me report) that, when executed, sends me this report.
I know how to create a jobstep that fires this SQL Agent Job.
I add this jobstep to all the jobs that execute SSIS packages.
However, I am not the only one scheduling packages and not all of my colleagues add this jobstep. The jobs are scheduled and created irregularly. So sending the report every day would be nonsense because sometimes the jobs don't run for a month. Other times, 5 jobs a day are executed.
Is there a way to trigger the job 'Send me report' whenever a SSIS-package finishes running? Regardless of how it was started? Regardless of what the outcome was?
Create a data driven subscription to the report that execute a stored procedure that check if any jobs was executed the day (probably the previous day or running 24 hours, etc.)

I have an SSIS job which pulls data from one database and pushes into another. Currently the actions are triggered when a record is inserted into a table.
My understanding is using a SQL Server trigger to launch an SSIS Job is not advised. Suggesting to me the preferred route for this use case is to use a recurring schedule.
If I schedule every 10 seconds, will the ETL job launch again if the previous run has not finished? (Is there a better word to describe this behavior in the computing spacing?) If the job relaunches, is there a preferred way to accomplish this behavior?
If I schedule every 10 seconds, will the ETL job launch again if the previous run has not finished?
No. The next run time is computed once the job finishes, based on the "Starting at" and the next interval that meets the cycle interval.
While it is running the "Start Job at Step" option on the SQL Server Management Studio interface will be grayed out.
If you try to kick off the job again forcefully using sp_start_job, you'll get a error message saying it's already running.
we have several SSRS reports that we want to run at night.
Every time we create a subscription, SSRS creates a job with its own schedule and one step in the job
for example:
exec [ReportServer].dbo.AddEvent #EventType='TimedSubscription', #EventData='ffe3a82d-367a-424c-8446-d2da0ce10666'
We have 5 reports. Therefore, there are 5 jobs. Instead of executing every single job, we want to combine all jobs into one. Meaning, one job with 5 steps. Therefore, we copy out the step command of each job (the above 'exec' snippet) and add it as an additional step to the main job.
Once this is done, we delete all 5 SSRS generated jobs.
The problem now is that once we restart the ReportServer services or the actual time of the original subscription schedule hits (default: 2am), all these 5 jobs are shown again in SSMS (SQL Server Management Studio). We can delete them but the next day, they are back again.
Any idea? We never had the problem in SQL 2008 R2 but with only with SQL 2014.
I stuck in a issue from last 6 months. I had a SQL Servre job SALES lOAD which is created with a T-SQL script. This job is being recreated every month automatically. How we know which job affected or recreated my SALES lOAD load every month. I checked each and every job but no job is affecting this job
You may check if there is any process scheduled to run every month (BAT file,Task scheduler job, etc...)
We have a large number of reports that are setup as subscriptions linked to a schedule. The schedule is then executed as a step within a SQL Agent Job to make sure the reports are only run when certain other steps are first carried out.
When the reports are run from the SQL Agent, I was wondering if there was a way I could manage the priority of specific reports linked to the schedule so I can control which reports run next?
I am working with SQL Server 2008. Using the Agent, I have created a job and scheduled it to execute every minute.
The job executes a stored procedure that moves data from table XXX, to a temp table, and then eventually into table YYY.
The execution of the job may take more than one minute - since the data is rather large.
Will a second instance of the job be started even though the first instance is still running?
If so, should I mark records in temp table (status = 1) to indicate that those records are being processed by a previous instance of the job?
Is there a way for me to check that an instance of the job is currently running, so that I don't initiate a second instance of the job?
Is there another solution for this that I am unaware of? (throughput is important)
Only one instance of a particular job can run at any one time.
So there is no need to take any particular precautions against another execution of the same job beginning before the first one has stopped.

If a job has started according to its schedule, you cannot start another instance of that job on the same server until the scheduled job has completed. In multiserver environments, every target server can run one instance of the same job simultaneously.
