BizTalk: Monitoring tracking configuration

  • 아티클

 

Introduction

This stored procedure will detect if tracking configuration is enabled in any BizTalk Artifacts like:

  • Orchestrations
  • Pipelines
  • Schemas
  • Send ports
  • Receive ports
  • Bussines rules

if tracking is enabled, it will raise a SQL Server Error. The idea of this sp, is to create a SQL Server agent job that calls this sp to create an event log alert with the error description.  Is very common that developers overwrite the tracking configuration in production for one of the following reasons:

  1. They are deploying a new version of the application (and the binding file is overwritten with the development settings)
  2. They are troubleshooting an issue, they enable tracking and they forgot to disable it.

Depending on the size of tracking this might impact perfomance negatively. In these cases, having a procedure to detect if tracking is enabled in some artifacts will help BizTalk administrators to practively change tracking settings.

Creating the SQL Server Agent Job

 

After you create the stored procedure, you just need to créate a SQL Server Agent Job with an T-SQL Step:

Enable the option “Write to the Windows Event log” under the Notifications section:

Save the Job and Run it. If your environment has any kind of tracking enabled, the job will fail like this:

Creating also the associated event:

Now, go to the job history and you will get the BizTalk artifacts that have tracking enabled:

This Code only includes the stored procedure, not the SQL Server Agent Job.
