SQL SERVER 2005删除维护作业报错：The DELETE statement conflicted with the REFERENCE constraint "FK_subplan_job_id"

 

案例环境：

    数据库版本： Microsoft SQL Server 2005 (Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.5000.00 (X64) )

案例介绍：

    对一个数据库实例做清理工作时，发现有一个很久之前禁用的数据库维护作业，于是遂删除该作业，但是删除该作业时，遇到如下错误：

    脚本删除操作：

USE [msdb]
GO
EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_delete_job @job_id=N'876ab683-6d81-47c4-bba2-0dfa58156110',
@delete_unused_schedule=1
GO

消息 547，级别 16，状态 0，过程 sp_delete_job，第 178 行
The DELETE statement conflicted with the REFERENCE constraint "FK_subplan_job_id". The conflict occurred in database "msdb",
table "dbo.sysmaintplan_subplans", column 'job_id'.The statement has been terminated.

案例分析：

 

 

从错误信息我们可以看出是删除某个系统表中记录时，由于外键约束关系，导致删除失败。最后导致存储过程msdb.dbo.sp_delete_job执行失败。我想彻底弄清楚删除失败的具体原因，于是可以从提示信息的系统表dbo.sysmaintplan_subplans开始，如下所示，

可以看到系统表dbo.sysmaintplan_subplans中的job_id字段引用了msdb.dbo.sysjobs中的job_id字段，那么可以肯定是在删除msdb.dbo.sysjobs表中对应记录时，没有先删除dbo.sysmaintplan_subplans中的记录。这样推测也跟报错信息吻合。

那么接下来我们研究一下msdb数据库的存储过程[dbo].[sp_delete_job] 如下所示：

    COMMIT TRAN

END

也就是说最终在此存储过程sp_maintplan_delete_subplan中删除msdb.dbo.sysmaintplan_subplans 表中的记录。 过程梳理清楚了，那么逆向推导看看具体原因

如下所示，删除msdb.dbo.sysmaintplan_subplans中对应记录语句如下

此时要看参数@subplan_id的取值，它从msdb.dbo.sp_delete_job_references中传入，如下所示

ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_maintplan_delete_subplan]

    @subplan_id UNIQUEIDENTIFIER,

    @delete_jobs BIT = 1

AS

…………………………………………………………………

在[dbo].[sp_delete_job_references]中，它的值来自于 @maintplan_subplan_id变量，最终来自于sysmaintplan_subplans系统表

SELECT @maintplan_plan_id = plans.plan_id,
       @maintplan_subplan_id = plans.subplan_id
    FROM sysmaintplan_subplans plans, sysjobs_view sjv
    WHERE plans.job_id = @deleted_job_id
      AND plans.job_id = sjv.job_id
      AND sjv.master_server = 1 -- This means the job came from the master

我通过DAC登录数据库（sysmaintplan_subplans是内部对象，此对象在DAC下才可以访问），查询如下所示，你会发现无记录，也就是说@maintplan_subplan_id为NULL值，导致后面执行删除msdb.dbo.sysmaintplan_subplans表中记录时，没有真正的删除记录。

 

最后发现导致查询无记录的原因在于查询条件sjv.master_server = 1

sysjob_view视图代码如下所示：

CREATE VIEW sysjobs_view
AS
SELECT jobs.job_id,
       svr.originating_server,
       jobs.name,
       jobs.enabled,

继续往下扒，视图dbo.sysoriginatingservers_view代码如下所示，

   SELECT
      originating_server_id,
      originating_server,
      master_server
   FROM
      dbo.sysoriginatingservers

原来master_server的值是默认的。因为表dbo.sysoriginatingservers无记录。至此，可以看出，这应该是SQL Server 2005的一个BUG来的。

解决方案：

手工删除系统表msdb.dbo.sysmaintplan_subplans中的记录，然后删除该作业。问题搞定。

USE [msdb]

GO

DELETE FROM msdb.dbo.sysmaintplan_subplans WHERE SUBPLAN_ID='B9A639EB-955D-4AE6-B69E-860145C133E7';

USE [msdb]

GO

EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_delete_job @job_id=N'ce8cb4ad-c91f-45bc-9e21-b50947063fba', @delete_unused_schedule=1

GO
