Query from Source not sure how to get into Destination

  • I am using SSIS 2012 and am pulling from a Server in cloud that I have read only rights to. after I finish pulling all the Table data I am trying to verify I received everything by doing Count of Rows on all tables.

    Here is the Query my boss gave me to get rowcount on the read only server.

    DECLARE @TableName VARCHAR(100),

    @sql VARCHAR(MAX)

    SET @sql = ''

    DECLARE cursorDB_Action CURSOR FAST_FORWARD FOR

    SELECT Name FROM sys.objects WHERE type = 'U' and SCHEMA_ID = 1

    OPEN cursorDB_Action

    FETCH NEXT FROM cursorDB_Action INTO @TableName

    WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0

    BEGIN

    SET @sql = @sql + '

    select db_name() + '' - Cloud'' as DatabaseName, '''+ @TableName + ''' as TableName, count(*) as CountOfRows, getdate() as DateRan from ' +@TableName + '

    UNION'

    --EXEC SP_EXECUTESQL @sql

    --set @sql = ''

    FETCH NEXT FROM cursorDB_Action INTO @TableName

    END

    CLOSE cursorDB_Action

    DEALLOCATE cursorDB_Action

    SET @sql = LEFT(@SQL,LEN(@SQL) - 7 ) -- Strip out final UNION

    --PRINT @sql

    EXEC (@SQL)

    My Question is how do I get this result into my destination DB? This does not work as an OLE DB Source inside data flow task it gives me an error about Meta data. Can I somehow make this a "Execute SQL Task" and store output somewhere? I have only done this with one result as a Variable I am not sure how to get all 4 columns and Rows.

  • How about linked server?

  • Don't like the cursor. Can you run something like this?

    SELECT o.name,

    ddps.row_count

    FROM sys.indexes AS i

    INNER JOIN sys.objects AS o ON i.OBJECT_ID = o.OBJECT_ID

    INNER JOIN sys.dm_db_partition_stats AS ddps ON i.OBJECT_ID = ddps.OBJECT_ID

    AND i.index_id = ddps.index_id

    WHERE i.index_id < 2 AND o.is_ms_shipped = 0 ORDER BY o.NAME

    If yes, use it as an OLEDB source in a dataflow. Then you can fire the results where you want.
