Syntax

sp_syscollector_start_collection_set 
    [ [ @collection_set_id = ] collection_set_id ]
    , [[ @name = ] 'name' ]

Arguments

  • [ @collection_set_id = ] collection_set_id
    Is the unique local identifier for the collection set. collection_set_id is int with a default value of NULL. collection_set_id must have a value if name is NULL.

  • [ @name = ] 'name'
    Is the name of the collection set. name is sysname with a default value of NULL. name must have a value if collection_set_id is NULL.

Return Code Values

0 (success) or 1 (failure)

Remarks

sp_syscollector_create_collection_set must be run in the context of the msdb system database and SQL Server Agent must be enabled.

This procedure fails when run against a collection set that does not have a schedule. If the collection set does not have a schedule (because its collection mode is set to non-cached, for example), use the sp_syscollector_run_collection_set stored procedure to start the collection set.

This procedure enables the collection and upload jobs for the specified collection set, and will immediately start the collection agent job if the collection set has its collection mode set to cached (0). For more information, see sp_syscollector_create_collection_set.

If the collection set does not contain any collection items, this operation has no effect. Error 14685 is returned as a warning.

Permissions

Requires membership in the dc_operator fixed database role to execute this procedure. If the collection set does not have a proxy account, membership in the sysadmin fixed server role is required.

Examples

The following example starts a collection set using its identifier.

USE msdb;
GO
EXEC sp_syscollector_start_collection_set @collection_set_id = 1;
