Measures reported by MSSQLISMsgeTest

The SSISDB catalog is the central point for working with Integration Services (SSIS) projects that you have deployed to the Integration Services server. For example, you set project and package parameters, configure environments to specify runtime values for packages, execute and troubleshoot packages, and manage Integration Services server operations.

To enable administrators to easily troubleshoot issues that occur in SSIS projects, the catalog logs the error/warning messages it captures during operations, in the SSIS database. The MSSQLISMsgeTest test retrieves these messages from the SSIS database and reports their count and details, so that administrators can instantly detect real/potential error conditions and investigate the reasons for the same.

Outputs of the test : One set of results for the server being monitored.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
errorMsgCount Indicates the count of error messages that are currently logged in the SSIS database. Number The value 0 is desired for this measure. A non-zero value indicates that one/more errors have occurred. In such a situation, use the detailed diagnosis of this measure to know what the errors are and which packages have been impacted.
warningMsgCount Indicates the count of warning messages that are currently logged in the SSIS database. Number The value 0 is desired for this measure. A non-zero value indicates that the catalog has warned of probable error conditions. In such a situation, use the detailed diagnosis of this measure to know what the warnings are for and which packages have been impacted.
taskFailedMsgCount Indicates the count of messages on task failure that are currently logged in the SSIS database. Number The value 0 is desired for this measure. A non-zero value indicates that one/more tasks have failed. In such a situation, use the detailed diagnosis of this measure to know which tasks failed, when, and which packages were affected by the failure.
unknownMsgCount Indicates the number of unknown messages that are currently logged in the SSIS database. Number The value 0 is desired for this measure. A non-zero value indicates that the catalog has spotted issues that cannot be categorized as errors/warnings/failures or even routine events. In such a situation, use the detailed diagnosis of this measure to know which are these unknown events, where they were detected, and which packages were impacted by them.
