Argh! I created an SSIS package via an Import Wizard and I can't find the SSIS packages on the server using Management Studio. Execute an SSIS package doesn't appear as an option when I go into job scheduler, either.
When you start SSMS, it allows you to choose a Server Type and Server Name. In the server type dropdown, choose "Integration Services" and connect to the server.
Then you'll be able to see what packages are in the db.
The wizard likely created the package as a file. Do a search on your system for files with an extension of .dtsx. This is the actual "SSIS Package" file.
As for loading it in Management Studio, you don't actually view it through there. If you have SQL Server 2005 loaded on your machine, look in the program group. You should find an application with the same icon as Visual Studio called "SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio". It's basically a stripped down version of VS 2005 which allows you to create SSIS packages.
Create a blank solution and add your .dtsx file to that to edit/view it.
If you have SQL Server installed there is also a menu option for finding local SSIS packages.
In the Start menu > All Programs > 'Microsoft Sql Server' there should be a menu option for 'Integration Services' > 'Execute Package Utility' (this is available if SSIS was included in your SQLserver installation).
When you open the Execute Package Utility, type your local sql server name in the 'Server Name' textbox and click on the Package button, you will see your saved package in the popup window. From here you can run your previously saved package
Open SQL server Management Studio.
Go to Connect to Server and select the Server Type as Integration Services and give the Server Name then click connect.
Go to Object Explorer on the left corner.
You can see the Stored Package folder in Object Explorer.
Expand the Stored Package folder, here you can see the SSIS interfaces.
If you deployed the package to the "Integration Services Catalog" on SSMS
you can retrieve the package using Visual studio.
Came across SSIS package that schedule to run as sql job, you can identify where the SSIS package located by looking at the sql job properties;
SQL job -> properties -> Steps (from select a page on left side) -> select job (from job list) -> edit -> job step properties shows up
this got all the configuration for SSIS package, including its original path, in my case its under “MSDB”
Now connect to sql integration services;
- open sql management studio
- select server type to “integration services”
- enter server name
- you will see your SSIS package under “stored packages”
to edit the package right click and export to “file system” you’ll get file with extension .dtx it can be open in visual studio, I used the version visual studio 2012
you could find it under intergration services option in object explorer.
you could find the packages under integration services catalog where all packages are deployed.

Trying to understand what free version of sql server allows to create Integration Services Catalog for SSIS pacakges. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
Nope.
A licensed (dev/standard/enterprise) SQL Server installation is required to run SSIS packages at will.
Otherwise, SSIS execution only works from within the context of the Visual Studio, SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT), debug environment.
Or, you can create one-time use SSIS packages via the Import/Export wizard in SSMS for Express editions. Those packages are source to sink - no opportunity for transformation steps, tasks, etc.
I have a working SSIS project locally done by me with SQL Server Data Tools. I found out that the easiest way to have the project deployed in SQL Server is using the option "deploy", available on that IDE. I have done it successfully locally.
My problem is that I am not able to deploy the project directly to the client Server beacuse I have been ordered to give him no more than files, scripts , etc. in order to get the project deployed only by him. He cannot instal SQL Server Data Tools and deploy. I wonder if I can export my already deployed project in my local SQL Server instance and make him to import it?
You can give him the .ispac file from your SSDT project's /bin folder, and he will be able to import it to the SQL Server using SSMS.
Please suggest How to Generate the scripts from Microsoft Parallel Data Warehouse...
I have already tried using SSMS 2016 by using my PDW credentials...
But i failed to Generate the scripts...
Regards,
Abhishek
The first thing I would try is to go to SSMS 2016 and go to the Tools menu and choose Check for Updates. Install the latest update out in the last month or so supports Azure SQL DW which is a similar MPP surface area. It may support PDW but I'm not sure.
If that doesn't work, go the tried and true route. Search the Microsoft download center for Analytics Platform System Appliance Update and then choose the version that matches your PDW. Download the .chm help file. Then you have to right click on the .chm file and choose Properties then unblock it in order to open it.
Then search for "Install SQL Server database tooling for Visual Studio" and it documents how to install SQL Server Data Tools for Visual Studio and connect SQL Server Object Explorer. Then you can expand and view a list of tables/sprocs/etc and script them out by right clicking on a table or sproc in SQL Server Object Explorer.
I have a SQL Server Scripts 2012 Project with multiple SQL queries and stored procedures.
We use Team Foundation Server 2012 to manage our source code for our Visual Studio Solutions.
How can I check in a SQL Server Scripts 2012 Project into TFS? If it is not possible how can I manage source control on this and allow multiple developers access to it?
You have a few options, here are two that I have used.
1: Download the TFS 2012 MSSCCI Provider:
This plugin allows you to access TFS from Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio. So you can easily add and check in\out those ssmssln and ssmsproj files from TFS.
64bit Download - 32bit Download
Once installed, in SSMS go to Tools-> Options -> Source Control to select the plugin.
If you don't see it then you probably need to install the other bit version.
After you have selected the plugin in the options window of SSMS, you will have a new menu option under "File" that will allow you to Add\Open\Change items in TFS from Sql Management Studio.
To add your Scripts solution using the MSSCCI plugin:
Open the project in SSMS, go to File -> Source Control -> Add Solution to Source Control
2. Add through VS using the "Add files to Source Control"
See here: To add a file that is not in a solution to version control
I'm not quite sure why it would be a challenge to add the sql server scripts to TFS just as any other file in your visual studio solution. I've done this in a lot of projects with great success.
What is a challenge with databases though is to find a good strategy to handle branches and database versioning. I recommend that you have a look at Entity Framework Code First Migrations which handles this very nicely. Another approach is to use Chuck Norris Round house which is a more script based solution:
RoundHouse
https://code.google.com/p/roundhouse/
Code First Migrations.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/data/jj591621.aspx
If you start from scratch I would recommend the Code First Migrations approach, but if you allready have a lot of .sql files the second can work very well.
The latest versions of MSSCCI still don't seem to work with SSMS 2012 - you'll need an older 32 bit version, here: http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/bce06506-be38-47a1-9f29-d3937d3d88d6
Once this is installed you'll be able to see the "Team Foundation Server MSSCCI Provider" in the SSMS Source Control Plug-In selection.
I'm running some load tests using Visual Studio 2010. I haven't been able to figure out how to set where the test results are saved, and it seems that I have no test results to browse once the test runs.
I have the general idea that you're supposed to supply a SQL connection string specifying a SQL server with some tables set up on it.
Where do I set the connection string for local test runs? Is it possible to configure VS2k10 to save my test results to a file locally?
Please note that local SQL databases such as SQL Express are specifically forbidden in my environment.
If you find yourself in a situation where you didn't setup the database to store the test results from the VS 2010 Load Tester, the following will help.
The default install of VS 2010, won't have the Microsoft Visual Studio Test Controller 2010 tool.
To create the necessary tables to store the test results, all you need to do is run the loadtestresultsrepository.sql script against your database.
You'll find this script at:
x86 - C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 10\Common7\IDE
x64 - C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE
Taken from:
MSDN: How to: Create a Load Test Results Repository Using SQL
Visual Studio strictly requires SQL Server for the load test store. If you don't have a SQL Server database, you cannot save test run data. All you can do is browse the result immediately after a test run, and perhaps copy-and-paste the test details into Excel. After you close the result, it's gone for good.
However, the database does not have to be on your local machine. Is there any chance you can get access to SQL Server somewhere else on your network?
You have to run "Microsoft Visual Studio Test Controller 2010 Configuration Tool" (found in Visual Studio start menu folder) to configure the database before use.
Setting the connection string is done in Test (menu) > Manage Test Controllers. This dialog allows you to select the Controller (or 'Local - No controller' for local tests) and also allows you to set the connection string to the load test results store.
