I have next schedule and expected, that if previous run was not complited - next will be skipped. But today it was run at 3:15, that takes 1 hr and 3 min and the next run was at 4:15, but I expected, that it will be skipped and will run at 5:15. Why it happened and how to fix it?

I have an SSIS job that runs every 15 minutes. One of over 2 dozen that run on regular intervals throughout the day. Occasionally, they fail, the job fails before ever getting to the point where it executes the SSIS package. You can see below. I've attached an image of the report ssis execution. 3PM today it failed, going into the SSIS Report Execution, no entry was there for 3PM.
How do I debug this? It seems to happen in spurts. When 1 fails, all of a sudden 5 will fail at the same interval. They may pick up and run fine the next time, they may fail again.
JOB RUN: 'Production_365_To_DW_Full_Sync' was run on 9/9/2020 at 3:00:00 PM
DURATION: 0 hours, 0 minutes, 20 seconds
STATUS: Failed
MESSAGES: The job failed. The Job was invoked by Schedule 29 (Every 30 Minutes). The last step to run was step 1 (Execute SSIS).
I have a query which will run if I simply run it through console or from code.
When I created Scheduled Query for the Query, it would not run. The Scheduled Query is successfully created, and the interval I set (every 2 hours) is correctly implemented but only the jobs are not created (I can see in Scheduled query that the time to run is being incremented by 2 hours every time it is supposed to run).
These are the properties when running query from Scheduled query:
Overwrite table, Processing location: US, Allow large results, Batch priority
If I do a Schedule Backfill, it creates 12 jobs which fails with an error messages similar to the following:
Exceeded CPU limit 125%
Exceeded memory
If I cancel all the created jobs and leave one to run, it would run successfully. The Scheduled Query itself would not create any jobs.
I started the Scheduled query at 12:00 and made it to run for every 2 hours in repeats.
I assumed the jobs would run at the start time but apparently it is not the case. Scheduled Query ran perfectly as intended from 14:00 following with 16:00 and so on.
The errors regarding maximum CPU/memory usage is because the query I wrote had ORDER BY statement which was causing this issue. Removing that cleared the issue.
I have a SQL Server job that has run for almost 2 years.
It's connecting to a bad Oracle database that keeps disconnecting, it always fails due to that. And when I run it again after 10 or 15 minutes, it works successfully. I'm getting bored of checking it every day...
Is there a way that make the job run to connect to that Oracle source until it succeeds, or another job that looks over this job status and if it failed, then it runs it again until it succeeds?
A solution we are using is something like this:
Wrap your Oracle query in an SSIS package, and after the query, have the package update a SQL table that keeps either a history of executions, or just a single row that tracks the last time the job ran successfully. In short, if the Oracle query was successful, then put something in a table saying the query ran successfully today. If it was not successful, then don't put anything in the table for today.
Then at the beginning of the package, BEFORE the Oracle query, check to see if the query has been run successfully today. If it has already run successfully, then do nothing and exit the package. If it has not run successfully today, then go ahead and try to run it, following the post-query steps described above. If you have any other conditions about when the package should run (like "only after 10 am" or anything like that) you would include that logic here.
Finally, schedule the job to call the package, and schedule to run every 15 minutes, or however often you like. It will try every 15 minutes until it runs successfully, and after that it will stop doing anything until the next day.
As a bonus, you can use this same package and job to initiate all tasks that you want handled the same way. You just need to keep meta data about all these tasks in your history/metadata table.
an alternative is to create the job step and leave it unscheduled, and create an ssis job that acts as the master to all your jobs and it runs every minute checking all job steps from a config table that have yet to succeed today and any it finds execute using sp_start_job.
if they do run successfully log the stats to a log table and this prevents them ever being launched again until the next day. This prevents all yours jobs needing to be scheduled every 15 minutes etc, they launch asap, and you can add extra logic to handle dependencies, number parallel running, importance level etc, start time, latest start time, max number to retty etc
I have a SQL Server Agent Job with 4 steps. If I run it, it displays as "Executing" indefinitely. If I run the code in the four steps sequentially directly into SSMS, they take ~7 seconds to execute. No configuration information (owner, run as, database, etc.) differs from any other Job that runs normally. What else can I examine?
As with any problem that comes in a group, break it down to it's individual parts. You have run each step separately and you know each individual step works. Next, add step 1 and 2 and see if it runs. Next add step 1,2 and 3 and see what happens. Eliminate all the possible issues step by step. My guess is that one step is not returning a success and the error logic on it does not say to fail or move to the next step.
Check the properties on each step under advanced and check the On success and On Failure actions.
I am facing issue with sql agent , on changing the server date it does not start at its schedule time while job is schedule daily at fixed time. No logs are found on this . This issue also occurs while system date has been changed to its real date . I have to restart the sql agent after that to invoke the job at its schedule time.
SQL Agent scheduled jobs will have last run date/time and next run date/time. Each time the jobs run, these values get updated. Please look in MSDB and you will see these details. You can also look in Job history.
When you manually reset the system clock to a date later than now, then your next run date/time will be in the past. As you have mentioned, bouncing the agent service should start the jobs again.
