Hi @sierd.zuiderveld
In general, you should not exclude areas, instead exclude individual tables or possibly an perspective.
Instead change the perspective to only run what you want. The whole idea with using perspectives is that you can run only the parts needed for a SSL, which excluding DSA and MDW would negate.
Run the scale DB option on its own and then run this on success of this.
This is because of the merge steps option. If this is set it will start executing the tables while running the powershell script. Running it without Merge steps will make the normal execution slower for the other parts.
Still I do not see those things as what causes the issue.
Look at what starts this package, a job likely, and see if it will do the same if you manually start the execution package.
Try it without the “Retry Step” option
Hi @sierd.zuiderveld did you get a chance to try the suggested solutions above? were you able to resolve the issue?
