SQL 2008 - SSIS - FTP task

  • I have to download file/s from Ftp server. Can we use 1 SSIS package with FTP task only, to download file1 from Job1 and file2 from job2 by means of variable or any other means?

    I am using package configuration with values stord in table

  • You can get SSIS to download all files from the site/local folder. This may help..http://www.sql-server-performance.com/2009/data-profiler-ftp-task-ssis/2/

  • Thank You Ness. Finally someone replied. am reading the post.

    Another Q. Can a package be set with more than one config settings, so at 2 different schedules, 2 different config values are got from the config table.

    How does the ssis package in msdb scheduled through job knows it has to get value from the config table or from the Set Vaues.

    Any guidance would be helpful

    Hi,

    I know that you can load multiple config files but I think that these load based upon the order that they are loaded so that you can split your tasks. I'm sure that you could load the configs based upon a query and then load them into an object and then assign them to a variable as you loop through them - that would allow you some variation in how the configs are loaded.

    The job knows where to get the values from based upon if you enable configurations in the package. If you use the deployment manifest tool file to deploy it should also prompt you for these when you install the package (however, I tend to use file deployments as I have had issues with msdb and not trusting where it gets the configs from)

    Hope this helps
