Here are a few scripts / stored procedures that most of the BizTalk newbies would love to know.
These scripts are very useful in a development environment to clean up your MessageBox and Tracking databases.
To clean up the MessageBox
- First create the stored procedure bts_CleanupMsgBox by running the sql script found in <BizTalk Installation Folder>\Schema\msgbox_cleanup_logic.sqlagainst your MessageBox database(BizTalkMsgBoxDb).
- Note that your BizTalkMsgBoxDb database will already have a dummy stored procedure by the same name which does nothing, so it is important that you run the above script if this is your first time.
- Stop all BizTalk services.
- Reset IIS server (run iisreset from start/run) if you are running any webservices
- Execute stored procedure bts_CleanupMsgbox on your message box database
- Execute stored procedure bts_PurgeSubscriptions on your message box database
- Restart all BizTalk services
To clean up the Tracking data
- Stop all BizTalk services.
- Execute stored procedure dtasp_CleanHMData on your tracking database (BizTalkDTADb)
- Restart all BizTalk services
