Question

You configure monitoring for a Microsoft Azure SQL Data Warehouse implementation. The implementation uses PolyBase to load data from comma-separated value (CSV) files stored in Azure Data Lake Gen2 using an external table. Files with an invalid schema cause errors to occur. You need to monitor for an invalid schema error. For which error should you monitor?

Explanation

Error message: Cannot execute the query "Remote Query" Possible Reason: The reason this error happens is because each file has different schema. The PolyBase external table DDL when pointed to a directory recursively reads all the files in that directory. When a column or data type mismatch happens, this error could be seen in SSMS. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/relational-databases/polybase/polybase-errors-and-possible-
