Microsoft Performance Dashboard for SQL Server 2008 Issue 3

Microsoft's SQL Server Performance Dashboard for SSRS 2005 is still an excellent bit of kit for checking the status of your SQL Server (Microsoft Download page). However after finding a slight coding issue when trying to install setup.sql (see Previous Blog), and then another issue when running the code (see Previous Blog). Well another issue occured - yippy:An Error has occured during report processing (rsProcessingAborted). Cannot read the next data row for the dataset CPU_UTILIZATION_HISTORY. (rsErrorReadingNextDataRow). Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type int. Again this is another simple fix. Either amend the following code in setup.sql or look for the SP [MS_PerfDashboard].[usp_Main_GetCPUHistory] in the msdb database. The line to change is:dateadd(ms, -1 * (@ts_now - [timestamp]), GetDate()) as EventTime, to dateadd(ms, -1 * (@ts_now - [timestamp])/1000, GetDate()) as EventTime, Tags: SQL Server 2008 R2, SSRS 2008, Performance Dashboard SQL Server Permalink | Comments (0)

Microsoft's SQL Server Performance Dashboard for SSRS 2005 is still an excellent bit of kit for checking the status of your SQL Server (Microsoft Download page). However after finding a slight coding issue when trying to install setup.sql see Previous Blog I have now found another issue when running the code:An Error has occured during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted). Cannot read the next data row for the dataset SESSION_CPU_WAIT_INFO (rsErrorReadingNextDataRow)

The datediff function resulted in an overflow. The number of dateparts separating two date/time instances is too large. Try to use datediff with a less precise datepart. Again this is a simple fix. Either amend the following code in setup.sql or look for the SP [MS_PerfDashboard].[usp_Main_GetSessionInfo] in the msdb database. The line to change is:sum(convert(bigint, datediff(ms, login_time, getdate()))) - sum(convert(bigint, s.total_elapsed_time)) asidle_connection_time, to sum(convert(bigint, CAST( DATEDIFF(minute, login_time, getdate()) as bigint)*60000 +DATEDIFF(millisecond, DATEADD(minute, DATEDIFF(minute, login_time, getdate()), login_time), getdate() ))) -SUM(CONVERT(bigint, s.total_elapsed_time)) as idle_connection_time, Tags: SQL Server 2008 R2, SSRS 2008, Performance Dashboard SQL Server Permalink | Comments (0)
