On a SQL Server 2008 R2 system where we restore some databases during the night, step 2 of job collection_set_3_upload raises errors if it runs while a database is in the middle of a restore.

run the job while a database on the server is in state "restoring"

Job canceled with error.

Job step should ignore databases which are not online and should continue with the next database.

It is really easy to reproduce the issue. Set up standard mdw and configure the system data collections sets on a sql server instance. Then recover a db instance aon that server and start the job collection_set_3_upload.
It will fail on step 2.

The profile shows that the error occured during execution of the following statement.

exec sp_executesql N'exec [dbo].[sp_syscollector_sql_text_lookup] @P1',N'@P1 binary(64)',0x03001D001A2905206B5E100157A10000010000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Manually executing this statement shows following result :

Msg 927, Level 14, State 2, Procedure sp_syscollector_sql_text_lookup, Line 6
Database 'smart4rtl' cannot be opened. It is in the middle of a restore.

Examine the proc shows that the binary value represents a sql handle which is used to query the dm-object dm_exec_sql_text. This doesn't work while a db used in the statement represented by the handle is in recovery mode.

Normaly it isn't a big thing as the job runs every 15 min, but it always throws an alert in SCOM and I have to check if it is this "failure" or a real serious one.
And it happens every day as in this case it is a test environment where we restore databases every night.

But even if this normaly not happens on prodction systems the job should run without throwing errors if a database isn't online!
