sp_syscollector_create_collection_set (Transact-SQL)

Applies to: SQL Server

Creates a new collection set. You can use this stored procedure to create a custom collection set for data collection.

Warning

In cases where the Windows account configured as a proxy is a non-interactive or interactive user that hasn't yet logged in, the profile directory will not exist, and the creation of the staging directory will fail. Therefore, if you're using a proxy account on a domain controller, you must specify an interactive account that has been used at least once in order to assure that the profile directory has been created.

Arguments

[ @name = ] N'name'

The name of the collection set. @name is sysname and can't be an empty string or NULL.

@name must be unique. For a list of current collection set names, query the syscollector_collection_sets system view.

[ @target = ] N'target'

Reserved for future use. @target is nvarchar(128), with a default of NULL.

[ @collection_mode = ] collection_mode

@collection_mode is smallint, with a default of 0.

Specifies the manner in which the data is collected and stored. @collection_mode is smallint, with a default of 0, and can have one of the following values:

  • 0: Cached mode. Data collection and upload are on separate schedules. Specify cached mode for continuous collection.

  • 1: Non-cached mode. Data collection and upload is on the same schedule. Specify non-cached mode for ad hoc collection or snapshot collection.

When @collection_mode is 0, @schedule_uid or @schedule_name must be specified.

[ @days_until_expiration = ] days_until_expiration

The number of days that the collected data is saved in the management data warehouse. @days_until_expiration is smallint, with a default of 730 (two years). @days_until_expiration must be 0 or a positive integer.

[ @proxy_id = ] proxy_id

The unique identifier for a SQL Server Agent proxy account. @proxy_id is int, with a default of NULL. If specified, @proxy_name must be NULL. To obtain @proxy_id, query the sysproxies system table. The dc_admin fixed database role must have permission to access the proxy. For more information, see Create a SQL Server Agent proxy.

[ @proxy_name = ] N'proxy_name'

The name of the proxy account. @proxy_name is sysname, with a default of NULL. If specified, @proxy_id must be NULL. To obtain @proxy_name, query the sysproxies system table.

[ @schedule_uid = ] 'schedule_uid'

The GUID that points to a schedule. @schedule_uid is uniqueidentifier, with a default of NULL. If specified, @schedule_name must be NULL. To obtain @schedule_uid, query the sysschedules system table.

When @collection_mode is set to 0, @schedule_uid or @schedule_name must be specified. When @collection_mode is set to 1, @schedule_uid or @schedule_name is ignored if specified.

[ @schedule_name = ] N'schedule_name'

The name of the schedule. @schedule_name is sysname, with a default of NULL. If specified, @schedule_uid must be NULL. To obtain @schedule_name, query the sysschedules system table.

[ @logging_level = ] logging_level

The logging level. @logging_level is smallint, with a default of 1, with one of the following values:

  • 0: log execution information and SSIS events that track:

    • Starting/stopping collection sets
    • Starting/stopping packages
    • Error information
  • 1: level 0 logging and:

    • Execution statistics
    • Continuously running collection progress
    • Warning events from SSIS
  • 2: level 1 logging and detailed event information from SSIS.

[ @description = ] N'description'

The description of the collection set. @description is nvarchar(4000), with a default of NULL.

[ @collection_set_id = ] collection_set_id OUTPUT

The unique local identifier for the collection set. @collection_set_id is an OUTPUT parameter of type int.

[ @collection_set_uid = ] 'collection_set_uid' OUTPUT

The GUID for the collection set. @collection_set_uid is an OUTPUT parameter of type uniqueidentifier.

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.

Permissions

Requires membership in the dc_admin (with EXECUTE permission) fixed database role to execute this procedure.

Examples

A. Create a collection set by using default values

The following example creates a collection set by specifying only the required parameters. @collection_mode isn't required, but the default collection mode (cached) requires specifying either a schedule ID or schedule name.

USE msdb;
GO

DECLARE @collection_set_id INT;

EXECUTE dbo.sp_syscollector_create_collection_set
    @name = N'Simple collection set test 1',
    @description = N'This is a test collection set that runs in non-cached mode.',
    @collection_mode = 1,
    @collection_set_id = @collection_set_id OUTPUT;
GO

B. Create a collection set by using specified values

The following example creates a collection set by specifying values for many of the parameters.

USE msdb;
GO

DECLARE @collection_set_id INT;
DECLARE @collection_set_uid UNIQUEIDENTIFIER;

SET @collection_set_uid = NEWID();

EXEC dbo.sp_syscollector_create_collection_set
    @name = N'Simple collection set test 2',
    @collection_mode = 0,
    @days_until_expiration = 365,
    @description = N'This is a test collection set that runs in cached mode.',
    @logging_level = 2,
    @schedule_name = N'CollectorSchedule_Every_30min',
    @collection_set_id = @collection_set_id OUTPUT,
    @collection_set_uid = @collection_set_uid OUTPUT;
GO
