Message Publishing throttling state = 6 (spool table and tracking tables size cases)

“Host message queue size, the spool table size or the tracking table size exceed the specified threshold” As it is stated on  “ How BizTalk Server Implements Host Throttling ”  http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa559893(BTS.10).aspx , message Publishing throttling state = 6 could be raised due to the following reasons (one or all of them) The SQL Agent jobs used by BizTalk Server to maintain the BizTalk Server databases not running or are running slowly. Down-stream components are not processing messages from the in-memory queue in a timely manner.

Invalid object name ‘BizTalkDTADb.dbo.Tracking_Parts1′

I have been in a customer recently that had this rare alert in the SQL Server Log while running the TrackedMessages_Copy_BizTalkMsgBoxDb job (never seen before) “Executed as user: USERNAME . Invalid object name ‘BizTalkDTADb.dbo.Tracking_Parts1′ . [SQLSTATE 42S02] (Error 208).  The step failed.” At first glance i thought it was a security issue concerning the SQL Server Agent account rights within the database but it was not the case, since the SQL Server agent was well configured and has access to all databases in the instance

Cómo Abrir Fácilmente los Puertos del Firewall de Windows para SQL Server

El pasado día, tras realizar una instalación de SQL Server 2008 en mi portátil con Windows 7, me encontré sin poder conectar a la instancia utilizando SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS). Recordaba que debido a los cambios introducidos en el Firewall de Windows Server 2008 y Windows Vista esto se debía con seguridad a puertos requeridos por SQL Server que no estaban abiertos en el Firewall. La sección Configurar Firewall de Windows para permitir el acceso a SQL Server de la documentación en línea de SQL Server incluye información sobre cómo abrir en el Firewall de Windows los puertos requeridos por los diferentes servicios de SQL Server
