I am actually the MOM administrator and only know enough SQL 2005 to keep mom working....sometimes I noticed on my dev mom box that SQL server agent has a lot of jobs configured to run against the mom onepoint database. The production box does not have these jobs. What would be the simplest way to export these jobs so that i can import them on the production box. Any help would be appreciated.
View 1 RepliesHi,
I have to move my SQL server data from win95 to NT.
When it comes to databases I would execute attach option.
When it comes to backup devices I think I could simply copy the folder where
backup devices are being located? IS it true??
How about moving jobs; DTS and Database Maintenance Plans???
Any Ideas??
Thanks,

Hi All,
I am not able to see any of the jobs in the enterprise manager that are scheduled on one of our production servers. Have any body seen this type of behaviour of SQL server.. The jobs are there in the SQL as I can query sysjobs table to see there entry.. The jobs are being executed properly when they are supposed to..
Thanks

Hello all,
we just moved our databases over from a SQL 2000 server onto a new SQL 2005 server. We had no problem migrating them over, but was wondering if there was a way to migrate the jobs over as well. We have about 20 of them and would prefer not to hav to create them all again on the new server.
Thanks in advance,

Hello,
I need to document all SQL Server Agent Jobs with full description of dependencies - database, table, stored procedure, etc.
Is there are a tool that I can download for that particular use???
Thank you so much
I created an agent job, and it runs fine, but I want more control over the scheduling. I need to schedule jobs to run Sunday through
Thursday at 8:00pm, skipping Friday.
How can I use the agent job interface and customize the schedule this way? Will I have to resort to a Windows Service and control the
scheduling that way?
Hi Guys,
I am not sure if this is the right place to put a question on SQL Server Agent.
I have scheduled some SSIS Jobs using the SQL Server Agent, and wanted to know how can I view detailed log information on how the Job ran (particularly Failure Information).
The information in the Log File Viewer to see the job execution log doesnt seem to help much - as it only says weather the Job Failed or Succeeded.
I need to see the reason and/or the step in a job where it failed!
Can someone help me out with some insight into this....
Thanks

I have a few jobs in sql server 2005 agent that got corrupted that Iwould like to restore.
Do they get backed up and how can I restore them?
Hi
I am new to the sql server, we need to move the database from one server to another from developer's edition to standard edition of sql server 2005. it has the reproting services and lot of reporting service jobs are running on the server now. we need to move all those jobs also to the new server. could some body help me on how to move the database and reporting services jobs to the another server. Thanks!
Just wondering if anyone knew if it was possible to create a SQL Server agent job that ran once every 30 seconds. I can't enter a value below 1 minute when editing the job schedule in Enterprise Manager.
Alternatively, I can create duplicate stored procedures and set one to run on the minute and one on the half minute. Thought there might be a better alternative to this though and I'll always have to be remembering to makes changes to both sprocs.
Thanks!
Hi. I was wondering if anyone has ever had a problem where nothing seems to be wrong with the server, and SQL Server Agent is up and running, but jobs fail. We had a job run at midnight, and it was the last successful run. Every job failed after that, with an error stating "Unable to retrieve steps for job..." There doesn't seem to be any reason for the problem. The jobs were kicked off manually and they all ran.
The only other error messages we could find were in the Application Event Viewer on the server. But the first error happened days ago and said this: "The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( .NET Runtime ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: Unable to open shim database version registry key - v2.0.50727.00000."
Since then, every few seconds this error occurred: "Windows cannot load extensible counter DLL MSSQLServerOLAPService, the first DWORD in data section is the Windows error code."
We turned off the performance monitor counters and that error stopped. But we still have no idea if that was the cause of the problem.
This isn't the first time we've had an issue with jobs failing because the steps couldn't be 'found', while SQL Server Agent was up and running.
Has anyone else had this problem?
Thanks!
Hello everyone. I'm having a problem with the sql server agent occasionally not executing its scheduled jobs, and unless the sql server agent is restarted they will not execute according to their schedule. I've read many posts on people having problems with running a package manually and then not being able to run it in a job, although that is not my problem since these are jobs that have all run successfully historically, and only until the agent is restarted do they start working again. It is the strangest thing.....we have many different jobs on this server and all of them will just mysteriously stop being executed. Two other things of note, the agent and server processes both run on AD accounts, and we receive this error:
SQL Server Scheduled Job 'X' - Status: Failed - Invoked on: 2007-10-27 02:00:00 - Message: The job failed. Unable to determine if the owner (ADadacct) of job 'X' has server access (reason: Unable to connect to server - check SQL Server and SQL Server Agent errorlogs).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi,
I have couple of questions about the scheduler:
I'd like my packages to run only on weekdays and disable a package if one of the first two packages fail. is it possible to do it?
Thanks

Hello All,
My database application has certain stored procedures which are scheduled to run at certain predefined interval (say once everyday). Now to implement this logic I have two options with me, first being to use the EXECUTE SQL TASK of the SSIS package and schedule it using the windows scheduler and the other is to use the SQL Server Agent Jobs and schedule it there itself. Now the current implementation is using the SSIS packages and I even know that the second approach of using the SQL Server Agents Job is better.
The only thing I want to know is whether it makes sense to invest time in converting my SSIS packages (20 in all) to SQL Server Agent jobs or not. Can somebody briefly explain or give some pointers regarding the performance benefits of Agent Jobs over the SSIS packages.
Thanks in Advance

The table created, the data from my flat file also inserted into the table correctly and the result return with success.
The question is why when I execute my package using SQL Server Agent, the SQL Server Agent keep executing my package like infinite loop until I stop the job. after I stop the job there is no error generated by sql server. Could you figured why this happen?? I've already tried to upgrade into SP2 and set the package protection level and still not get good result from it. thank you.
On Saturday we moved a few databases from SQL Server 2005 to a SQL Server 2012 cluster; and as expected some jobs have been failing because of this. The Job in Question executes two stored procedures and then an SSIS package; however when I ran the Job it failed with the error
Msg 7411, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Server 'servername' is not configured for RPC
I therefore configured the Server for RPC with the following script: -
exec sp_serveroption @server='servername', @optname='rpc', @optvalue='true'
GO
But the job failed again. So I therefore reran the script with the reconfigure option: -
exec sp_serveroption @server='OCELOT7CLUST', @optname='rpc', @optvalue='true'
GO
reconfigure with override
go
But again the job failed. I then closed SSMS and reopened it and attempt to run the job again and once again it failed.This is not an issue with the Linked Server as the linked Server is connecting as sa.

Hi boys and girls, I am a total newbie to ms sql. So please be gentle.
I have a ms sql database on one server but I need a duplicate of the ms sql database on another server with all packages and jobs duplicated on the new server.
I was able to export the database over to the new database on the new server no problems there.
The problem is under DTS I have "local packages" that all need to be moved to the new server. I am able to export them into my computer. But on the new server there is no import for the local packages. How do I get these packages onto the new server into my server's ms sql???
Also under the management and sql agent manager, there are jobs that are on the old db, that I need to go to the new server in ms sql.
Any help at all would be appreciated!!!
Thanks!!!
I have a series of jobs in the SQL server Agent that will begin and appear to run fine, but will never finish. Is there a way to limit the time that a job will run in the agent, for instance stop with failure if not completed within 1 hour?
Thanks for the help

Hi Guys,
Can you please advice me on if there is a limitation on SQL agent Jobs. If then how many jobs can SQL server accomedate.
If there is a limit, then is there are any ways to increase it?
I appreciate your quick response.
Thanks
I have several users that are a member
of a Windows Nt group. I want to be
able to allow this group to create,
update, and delete SQL Agent Jobs.
But I do not want them to be members
of the SYSADMIN role.
Everything that I have found states
that they must be members of this
server role to perform these actions.
Does anyone have an idea on how to
accomplish this? or point me in some
kind of direction to explore.

Hi Group,
Is it possible to schedule and execute sql jobs from an asp page.
I am developing an application that requires an administration section. In this section the admin would like to change / update the schedule of the sql job and also run the jobs ad hoc. Basicall y they would like the functionality of sql agen in enterprise manager to be available from their web application.
Has anbody done this before ?
All information / solutions shall be psoted back to the group as I reckon this would be pretty useful functionality.
Thanks in advance

The SQL Server Agent process is running. When I use EM to start a database integrity
check job, it fails with an error message of 22029 and the following:
[LOG] SQLServerAgent security context does not have server-autorestart privileges
I can not find error 22029 in Books on Line. I will go to Microsoft Knowledge base
and research this problem.
In the mean time if someone can help, it is much appreciated.
Thanks to all.

Hi all,
I am trying to write a T-SQL script to change about 200 SQL Agent jobs to send notification to a different email notification list. I could do this manually but it would take me a lot more time. Is there a way to script this out in T-SQL? Thanks!
I have a job with a single ActiveX step that I have setup and am having problems running.
If i set the SQL Server Agent to run as an Administrator then my job processes fine however under the default setup which has the SQL Server Agent running as Local System I get an error.
I assume this is permissions problem so I created a basic windows user called ABC. I then created a credential called ABC linked to the windows user ABC. I then created a proxy that uses the credential ABC and then ticked the box that allows the proxy to run ActiveX scripts. I then set the ABC as a principle of the proxy.
I then set my single job step to be run under the ABC credential.
Still no luck. This is the first time i've worked with this sort of thing so I'm not sure if I'm going about it in the right way.
Please explain how i can have a job that runs as an active X script. I understand running sql server agent as administrator is bad for security so what are the alternatives?
in reference to both MSSQL 2k8R2 and 2012, if i have a named instance AND a default instance on the same installation, and i create agent jobs (backups, indexing, etc) on either one, those same jobs appear on the "other" instance without having actually created them while logged IN to that instance.
Is this a normal feature of MSSQL? Doesn't seem like it should be happening that way.
I’m trying to write a script that will detect long running agent jobs.
Having looked at this article:
http://www.databasejournal.com/features/mssql/article.php/3500276
It appears that agent job job id’s don’t necessarily get stored in the programname of the sysprocesses table. This is true if the agent executes an os command. It also appears that job steps do not get stored in the sysjobhistory until the step is complete so that cannot be used accurately.
Does anyone know of an effective way to find if there are long running jobs other than these methods?
