Monitoring the running and execution of SSIS packages with MOM

Hi,

Has anyone monitored the execution of SSIS packages with MOM? Are there extreme benefits over just utilizing the built in execution and event logs, as well as the Windows Event Viewer?

What is the recommended way to monitor SSIS execution?

Thanks,

- Joel

Joel,

I have a very very limited knwoledge of MOM... However you can log many things to the event log with SSIS (job execution with SQL Agent, logging to event log, ...). I'm not aware of anything "standard" for SSIS & MOM...

They're not quite there yet with MOM integration. We had a similar project to integrate into Tivoli and the way I got around it was to use logging providers to output into the Windows Event Log. Tivoli had hooks into the Event Log for the events I gave it and whalla....pagers blaring. If your concern is more from the operations perpective, you may have better luck using the SQL Server log provider and creating operations reports for your production support. You can use these and events like the OnPipelineRowsSent to trap "hung" packages or tasks.

Sorry there's not a better answer but direct MOM integration is just a matter of time.
