Getting errors while trying to get SQL Server Agent to work

August 31, 2017, 9:42 am

I am trying to get SQL Server Agent on an instance of 2014 and an instance of 2016 to run. Currently both of them start up but then immediately stop with the message: The SQL Server Agent (VERSION16) service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs.

I read on other issues that this is typically due to a permission issue. I checked the event viewer but all I saw was Event ID 101: SQLServerAgent service successfully started. followed by Event ID 102: SQLServerAgent service successfully stopped.

In order to rule out a permissions issue I went into SQL Server Configuration Manager running as an admin, went to the agent properties and switched Log on to the Built-in account: Local System. When I click OK I am getting the following error: The process terminated unexpectedly. [0x8007042b].

I am unsure where to go from here. I need this agent up as there are several nightly jobs that need to be run on a production database running on this instance. One of these is a nightly backup that is currently never executing. I am logged into the system as a user that is both a local and domain admin so there shouldn't be any permission issue here, please let me know if you can think of anything else I can try to get this working.

Hello,

I have enabled TDE encryption on a SQL Server 2012 database which is around 8TB. 

Now when I tried to disable it, it gives me below error message 

USE master;
GO
ALTER DATABASE XXX SET ENCRYPTION OFF;
GO

Msg 33109, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot disable database encryption while an encryption, decryption, or key change scan is in progress.
Msg 5069, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
ALTER DATABASE statement failed.

Note: i was running checkdb on this database to check the impact of TDE after the encryption, but the checkdb failed after 160 hours due to space issue.

if I query sys.dm_database_encryption_keys

it shows 

encryption_state_desc
Encryption in progress

Please help.

Hi All,

I am seeing below connectivity error while executing queries on a database. how can we fix this.

ERROR:
Transport-level error has occurred when receiving results from the server. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - The specified network name is no longer available.)

Brief background:
If we connect to a jump server and make a connection to server and execute the query, the query runs successfully.
However, when we try to connect to the server from a local desktop or a laptop and run the same query, it runs for sometime and we get above error.

How can I bulk insert into deltastore? HOW TO use SqlBulkCopy on a table with Non-Clostered columnstore index efficiently ?

September 16, 2019, 4:52 am
$
0
0

Hello SQL server community,

We have an application that is loading data events in batches.

The application inserts events into SQL Server table with Bulk insert (System.Data.SqlBulkCopy). (in batches of 1-10000)

We have added a non-clustered columnstore index to the table.

Now each bulk insert results in COMPRESSED row group with the size of the batch and after a while things get a bit inefficient => you get lots of relatively small compressed rowstore groups and using the index becomes MUCH slower. 

Essentially we are back to times when there was no deltastore on NCCIs

Of course you can run a costly REORGANIZE on your NCCI to merge those tiny closed rowgroups into big ones.


If you execute an insert statement, index records it in the deltastore. And things are handled much more efficiently. 

 

Therefore my question: Is there any way to ask SQL server to treat Bulk insert as normal insert when updating columnstore indexes ?

Another formulation: Is there any way to disable BULKLOAD rowgroup trim reason for columnstore index when bulk-loading data?

Thank you very much,

Alexander

This scripts explains the question more precise:

To run it you need to create a file on filesystem for BULK INSERT 

It will create a DB and will clean it up afterwards 

SQL Server 2017 (14.0.3223.3) was used. 

Behavior is the same on Microsoft SQL Azure (RTM) - 12.0.2000.8   Aug 27 2019 17:56:41

)

CREATE NONCLUSTERED COLUMNSTORE INDEX [NCI_1] ON [dbo].[Table]
(
[value],
[state]
)WITH (DROP_EXISTING = OFF, COMPRESSION_DELAY = 0) 

insert into [Table] values (('TestInitail'), (1))

DECLARE @IndexStateQuery VARCHAR(MAX)  
SET @IndexStateQuery = 'SELECT i.object_id,   
    object_name(i.object_id) AS TableName,

JOIN sys.dm_db_column_store_row_group_physical_stats AS CSRowGroups  
    ON i.object_id = CSRowGroups.object_id AND i.index_id = CSRowGroups.index_id   
ORDER BY object_name(i.object_id), i.name, row_group_id;  '

EXEC (@IndexStateQuery)
-- Creates a COMPRESSED rowGroup with 1! record  
--QUESTION: How to make this statement add data to Open Rowgroup ?

EXEC (@IndexStateQuery)

--Costly fix. Merge and recomrpess closed rowgroups

Modifying SQL script to allow the script executed daily via SQL agent job ?

People,

I'm running a small physical server with SQL 2019 Standard with just 256 GB of SSD in a far remote location. Hence extending the C: drive is not possible.
At the moment the SQL DB of software called VeeamOne is taking most of the disk space.

I have already set the recovery model to Simple, but still, disk space is running low when I issue delete command manually when the disk space is reaching 50 MB free space left.

I assume by setting the recovery mode to simple, it is better than Full which taking up the disk space by growing .LDF files

Therefore I need some help from the SQL guru here to modify the below SQL script so I can always keep the last 60 days of data by deleting unused performance metrics. So I can run it as SQL Agent job every night to maintain the disk space usage in control.

Especially in this section: SET @dt = CONVERT(DATETIME, '2019-10-01 00:00:00.001' ,120)

ALTER DATABASE VeeamOne SET RECOVERY SIMPLE
GO

CHECKPOINT
DECLARE @dt DATETIME
SET @dt = CONVERT(DATETIME, '2019-10-01 00:00:00.001' ,120)

WHILE EXISTS (SELECT * FROM [monitor].[Event] WITH(NOLOCK) WHERE [time] < @dt)
BEGIN
    BEGIN TRAN
    DELETE TOP (500) FROM [monitor].[Event] WHERE [time] < @dt
    COMMIT TRAN
    CHECKPOINT
END​

WHILE EXISTS (SELECT * FROM [monitor].[perfsamplelow] WITH(NOLOCK) WHERE [timestamp] < @dt)
BEGIN
    BEGIN TRAN
    DELETE TOP (500) FROM [monitor].[perfsamplelow] WHERE [timestamp] < @dt
    COMMIT TRAN
    CHECKPOINT
END​

DBCC SHRINKFILE (N'VeeamOne_log' , 0, TRUNCATEONLY)
GO
DBCC SHRINKFILE (N'VeeamOne' , 0, TRUNCATEONLY)
GO
Thanks in advance.

Linked servers cannot be used under impersonation without a mapping for the impersonated login

So I have seen other forum posts, but they haven't exactly matched the issue I am having (though I am getting this same error!)

I am trying to run a sql server agent job that runs a stored procedure that queries a linked server (another MSSQL instance) and writes to a table in a database.  I am trying to run the account job as a domain account ie..  DOMAIN\SVC_REPORT.  This account has rights on the local database for writing, has the permission on msdb to run agent jobs, and has rights to query the data on the destination server.   I can log onto this database server as this user, run the stored procedure and it works with passthrough authentication.  However when I schedule it through an agent job I get the above error.  Security it set to be made using the login's current security context.  If I set up mappings, using either the SQL Service account for the instance OR DOMAIN\SVC_REPORT and map it to a local sql account on the destination server with rights to the data it also works.  So I have the work around, I just don't know why I can't run the agent job and have it pass authentication credentials through to the target without the mapping? 

Thank you for any replies!!
