How to Install and Configure Baseline Collector Solution V2

,

In my previous two articles I introduced my Baseline Collector Solution. I think these articles were more technical than informative, and not everyone likes the deep technical, design details. For example, people who are not actually DBAs just need to handle DBA stuff. Somebody may just prefer a nice presentation about the end result of a solution.

So I decided to write a so-called "How to," in which I show you how easy it can be to install and to configure my Baseline Collector Solution.

Here you can find my previous articles about the Solution (the techie ones):

Let's get started.

Downloading the Solution

The first step is to download the Solution. So, let's go to my blog: SQLApprentice.net

Go to Baseline Collector Solution in the menu. Then Download the BCS (see the picture below)

Click to "Download Now" and save the file.

During downloading the Solution, don't forget to Sign up to the Update Newsletter so you will be informed when new updates are availalbe!

That's it. Let's go on with configuring...

Configuring the Solution

This step is the most important one. Right after the license info you can see the following instruction which tells you what is needed to find in the script and to modify:

So basically we need to tell the SetupScript how to implement the Solution. You need to answer the following questions:

TargetDatabase

In which database do you want to install the Solution? This database will be used for storing the data collected. As you can see there is reminder part, a big ASCII arrow telling you that there are still some settings to be configured, so you are not DONE yet.

Tables, Jobs, Schedules

In the next section you can decide if you want the SetupScript to drop any tables which already exist in the database and you can also enable data compression so the created tables will be compressed using PAGE compression.

You can also configure the SetupScript to create default Jobs and Schedules for you. Here there are also a drop options for both the jobs and the schedules. There is one thing which is not mentioned here: If you choose to create both jobs and schedules, the jobs will be mapped to my recommended schedules, but both the jobs and schedules will be disabled, so you will need to enable them. (NOTE: You can find a script created by rstone for enabling the default jobs/schedules on the article disscussion of article Baseline Collector Solution V2 here.)

Here is a list about the created jobs and its' predefined schedules:

  • Baseline - Collect InstanceInfo/ConfigData/DatabaseInfo/FileInfo/WaitStats

    • SCHEDULE[baseline - daily - every 6 hours /6AM/12PM/6PM/12AM/]

    • STEPS:

      • Collect InstanceInfo

      • Collect ConfigData

      • Collect DatabaseInfo

      • Collect FileInfo

      • Collect WaitStats with @ResetWaitStats=1

      • JobCheck

  • Baseline - CollectIOVFStats

    • SCHEDULE[baseline - every 4 weeks - 1week - every 3 hours /12AM/3AM/6AM/9AM/12PM/3PM/6PM/9PM/]

  • Baseline - CollectPerfmonData

    • SCHEDULE[baseline - every 4 weeks - 1week - every 1 hour - BT/6AM-7PM/]

  • Baseline - CollectTempDBUsage

    • SCHEDULE[baseline - every 4 weeks - 1week - every 1 hour - BT/6AM-7PM/]

  • Baseline - Output File Cleanup

    • SCHEDULE[baseline - daily - at 2351PM]

Logs

Where do you want to put the logs generated by the jobs?

This can be configued at the end of the configuring section.

If you want to put the logs into your own folder, you need to explicitly provide the full path of this folder, and the folder MUST exists.

If you want to put the logs into the instance's default error log directory...

  • in SQL Server 2008 / 2008 R2 / 2012 just leave the @OutputFileDirectory parameter as NULL and set the @LocateSQLErrorLogDirectoryFromRegistry parameter to 1 and the script will try to locate the default error log directory for you. (see my demo setup log below)

  • in SQL Server 2014 leave the @OutputFileDirectory parameter as NULL and that's it you are done, the SetupScript will ignore the @LocateSQLErrorLogDirectoryFromRegistry parameter since it will use SQLLOGDIR token.

  • you can explicitly provide that folder.

That's it. As you can see you are DONE! You can run the script... or not?

Installing the Solution

As part of the implementation process the SetupScript generates SetupLog so you can easily troubleshoot if something goes wrong. So it is important to save the SetupLog. Let's see few options for that:

SSMS Query Result to file

You can set SSMS to save the result generated to file. With this option used everything that you can see on the message tab will be in the file as well.

Since there will be only text output I modified the file type to *.* and use .txt extension.

SSMS with SQLCMD mode Enabled

From Baseline Collector Solution V2.0.4 SQLCMD mode can be used. One disadvantage of this is that you need to define two output. One for the errors and one for the standard output generated. First enable SQLCMD mode in SSMS:

Write the followign code somewhere right after the license or the first setup instruction:

:on error exit
:error D:\BCS_DEMO\BCS_error_log_YYYYMMDD.txt
:out D:\BCS_DEMO\BCS_install_log_YYYYMMDD.txt

If you already enabled SQLCMD mode the SQLCMD statements are highlighted in gray.

SQLCMD

Last but not least you can use SQLCMD itself.

So the script is already configured well. You have more options:

  1. You can still use the code described in the previous section to redirect the output (both :error and :out) or
  2. You can simple use the -o option of SQLCMD.exe.

In my demo I used SQLCMD with the second option:

If everything went well you have the followings:

The BaselineDB with the tables and the collectors in it...

...the jobs...

... and the schedules...

...and a SetupLog like this one:

You are done. Baseline Collector Solution V2.0.4 is installed with jobs and schedules and the process is also documented. You only need to enable the jobs and schedules and that's it.

Future Plans

Here is a preview of the coming features and improvements:

  • Implementing inside code versioning. So in the future you won't need to reinstall the whole solution from scratch, there will be cumulative updates availabe.
  • New SetupScript using SQLCMD mode
  • Re-Designed schema => security purpose
  • SSRS reports
