I use this script to generate a dataset for a report that tells me when subscriptions fail to send e-mail or post reports to file shares based on the value of the lastStatus column in the subscriptions table.
Trouble is it generates a report and e-mail whether there are failures or not. If you have the Enterprise edition, you can do a data-driven sub that will get around this.
Failed subs will stay on the list until they run successfully.
select cat.Name, u.username 'Report Author', replace(S.[DeliveryExtension],'report server ','') 'Type', S.[ExtensionSettings], Modified.[UserName] 'Subscription Modifier/Creator', S.[ModifiedDate], replace(S.[Description],'send e-mail to ','') 'Distribution List', S.[LastStatus], CAT.[Path], S.[LastRunTime] from [Subscriptions] S inner join [Catalog] CAT on S.[Report_OID] = CAT.[ItemID] inner join [Users] Owner on S.OwnerID = Owner.UserID inner join [Users] Modified on S.ModifiedByID = Modified.UserID inner join users u on cat.createdbyid = u.userid left outer join [SecData] SD on CAT.PolicyID = SD.PolicyID AND SD.AuthType = 1 left outer join [ActiveSubscriptions] A with (NOLOCK) on S.[SubscriptionID] = A.[SubscriptionID] where S.[LastStatus] not LIKE '%was written%' and S.[LastStatus] not LIKE '%mail sent%' and S.[LastStatus] not LIKE '%New Subscription%' and S.[LastStatus] not LIKE '%been saved%' Order by s.lastruntime desc
