How to enable Service Broker?
- Check if Service Broker is enabled first before making any changes. Here is the query to verify if service broker is enabled:
SELECT is_broker_enabled FROM sys.databases WHERE name = 'Solver_Repository';
If the result is 1, then Service Broker is enabled and nothing needs to be done.
If it returns 0, then Service Broker is disabled and needs to be enabled. - To enable Service Broker, put the repository into single user mode, start service broker, and then put the repository back into multi-user mode.
The below query will perform that action on the Repository Database:
declare @DatabaseName nvarchar(1000)
,@SQL nvarchar(max)
Set @SQL = ''
Set @DatabaseName ='' Select @DatabaseName = name from sys.databases where name in ('Solver_Repository','BI360_Repository') --print @databasename
select @SQL = @SQL + 'USE [Master]' +char(13)+
'Alter Database ['+@databasename+'] SET SINGLE_USER with ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE' +char(13)+
'Alter Database ['+@databasename+'] SET ENABLE_BROKER WITH NO_WAIT' +char(13)+
'Alter Database ['+@databasename+'] SET MULTI_USER' +char(13)
--print @SQL
exec sp_ExecuteSQL @SQL
