SQL PROCEDURE TO FIND THE LIST OF JOB FAILURES FOR CURRENT HOUR

  • Hi Friends,

    I need a procedure which should capture the job failure. This SP should capture the below elements:

    1. Server Name

    2. Job Name

    3. Cause of job failure

    The SP provided will be executed for hourly once. It should capture the data into a table every 1 hr. The very next time it runs the temp table must be truncated.

    Thanks in Advance.

  • Any particular reason to log it to a table, instead of just definining a view that queries the last hour of data?

    Either way, you'll get most of your data out of msdb.dbo.sysjobhistory (details: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa260416(v=SQL.80).aspx) and possibly out of the error log (there are ways to query this, but so far as I know they're all undocumented, so you'll need to research them yourself). Most of the data should be in the sysjobhistory table.

  • The reason is to just capture the reason why its failed and trigger a mail for every hour. The reason for truncating the temp table is to avoid the increase in size of the table or database.

  • This isn't pretty but it works well - I just threw it into a Job running hourly
