# SSRS Trace Log Review Skill
## Purpose
Analyze SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) diagnostic artifacts to find why a report
server fails to start, can't reach its report server database, runs reports slowly or
aborts them, drops subscription deliveries, or fails to join a scale-out deployment.
Applies 24 checks (G1–G24) across six categories:
- **G1–G4** — Trace configuration and log health: `DefaultTraceSwitch` level, file size
and retention settings, restart/recycle frequency visible in trace file rollover, and
stale component-level trace overrides
- **G5–G9** — Startup and report server database connectivity:
`rsReportServerDatabaseUnavailable`, `rsReportServerDatabaseLogonFailed`,
`rsErrorOpeningConnection` sub-causes, orphaned database pointers, and
`rsServerConfigurationError`
- **G10–G13** — Memory pressure and AppDomain recycling: `MemorySafetyMargin` /
`MemoryThreshold` / `WorkingSetMaximum` configuration, hard recycles from memory
allocation failures, and `RecycleTime` / `MaxAppDomainUnloadTime` tuning
- **G14–G18** — Report processing and rendering: `ExecutionLog3` time-phase breakdown,
legacy processing engine usage, `rsProcessingAborted` and error statuses, and external
image fetch latency
- **G19–G21** — Subscriptions and delivery: file share and email delivery extension
failures, and subscription scheduling clustering
- **G22–G24** — Scale-out and encryption keys: `rsInvalidReportServerDatabase` after
upgrade, `rskeymgmt -j` join fa
