time-out in a Job using link server

  • i have this error in a job, this job is using linked server

    Message

    Executed as user: Domain\user. OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI10" for linked server "Report_Link_Server" returned message "Query timeout expired". [SQLSTATE 01000] (Message 7412). The step succeeded.

    any idea to resolved this error ?

  • Any Idea ?

  • Please check the settings for

    linked server properties -> security options -> query timeout

    and

    SQL Server instance -> connections->remote server connections -> remote query timeout

    and compare it to the query processing time when running the query (referenced in the job step) at the source server locally.

    There are two options to resolve the issue

    1) increase the timeout values to mask the problem or

    2) improve the query performance so it won't take that much time

    I prefer option 2. 😉
