What the file says

# 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,
…
