SQL Agent backup job overrun

  • Hi Folks,

    I have created maintainence plan to execute SQL Transaction log backups. the backup job is running for 20 to 30 minutes though it usually it takes only 1 to 2 minutes. The strangest part is when I check backup_start_date and backup_finish_date columns for backup duration, it gives me only 1 minute as usual.

    But SQL agent job is running for 30 minutes. :crazy:

    Any clues what can be the reason. Frequently SSIS SQL Agent jobs also have

    The LoadFromSQLServer method has encountered OLE DB error code 0x80004005 (Unable to complete login process due to delay in opening server connection

    thanks.

  • try this

    open the SQL job that runs the package, went to the job step that runs the package, went to Advanced and set "Retry attempts" to 4 ( could be more if needed ), with Retry Interval set to 0 ( so it retries immediately and cant time out ).
