  • Ah spoon feeding us on the basics ... I like that approach.

    If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something.

    The objects that are stored in the SSISDB catalog include projects, packages, parameters, environments, and operational history.

    There's a difference between storing something and versioning something.

    There's a lot of items stored on my hard drive, but none of them are versioned.

  • This was removed by the editor as SPAM

  • Pretty straight forward question.

  • Interesting... so you have to roll back an entire project even if you only need a previous version of a single package?

    For the moment this seems to be the case, yes.

  • Nice question - thanks, Koen!

  • The catalog.packages view holds version_minor, version_major, and version_build for each package, which seems to make packages pretty well versioned. It also holds version_comments with comments for a specific version of the package, and version_guid which is a globally unique identifier for the specific version of the package. In addition it holds package_format_version to tell us whether this is a version used for SQL2005, SQL2008, or SQL 2012. So I don't believe the idea that packages are not versioned in SSISDB holds water.

    Environments are apparently not versioned.

    Projects are versioned, albeit in a pretty limited manner; the catalog.projects view holds version_lsn and project_format_version, no major/minor version (also no build version, but that's probably irrelevant for a project).

    The SSISDB database clearly has versioning for two of the three objects mentioned.

    None of the offered answers appears to be correct.

    If the question had been "which object types are versioned in the SSISDB catalog view catalog.object_version" the "correct" answer would actually have been correct, but the question was something very different and the correct answer was wrong.

    I know nothing about SSIS and catalog (ya, I know: "go back to school") and I don't think that "versioning" has a word in french 🙂 so, for people like me, if there's any, is there a fast way to explain all that? because from what I understand, the question today was about SQL server storing versions of projects (wich project?) in a database called SSIS? :crazy:

  • Thanks for the question about a new feature.

  • link that states "In this release, only versions of projects are supported in this view."

  • Good straightforward question. Thanks for submitting.
