Author Backing up DTS and SQL jobs....
Jessy Martin

2005-05-31, 1:23 pm

I know If I store the DTS packages in SQL Server it will be stored in the
msdb database.

Also all the job scheduling information is stored in the msdb database.

Even though I am taking backup of system databases, I would like to know if
is there any way I can export all the DTS packages and jobs in any different
way. This is only an additional extra precaution incase If I am not able to
restore the system database in the event of disaster.

I am able to open the DTS packages individually and store as .dts file. It
is a time consuming process.

I am using SQL 2K.

Thanks,

J Smith

For DTS backup, I use a neat little program called, "DTS Backup 2000." It's
freeware.
