Hello there

I had serious problems on my sql server, so i had to uninstall it and
install again.

By attach i got all my databases back as well as they were before, but all
my dts pagkages were gone, and the jobs.

Where they were saved on my computer, and how can i restore them?

I think they are stored in the MSDBDATA database.

I don't know enough about SQL Server administration to know how you would
get them back from there...I believe you can, but I think it's tricky. I
believe it involves restoring the original (as long as you have a backup of
it).

You could search MS website for restoring the MSDB file...or wait for
someone with more experience to tell you exactly what's involved.

They would be in the msdb database. When you uninstalled and
reinstalled, you would need to restore the system databases
as well as restore or attach the user databases to get your
server back to where it was. Books online has more
information on restoring system databases.

Hi Dear,
Whenever you create a new DTS package it will be stored in
MSDB database sysdtspackages system table.

In your case you have uninstalled SQL Server at that time your msdb database
also might have gone if you do not take backup of that msdb database.

You will get the old dtspackages if you are abel to get your MSDB database
again otherwise you can't get taht DTS Packages.

The other thing to note is that the schdules for the sql Agent is also stored
in the MSDB database.

Quick rundown of the system db's

Master,
Olds information about users and all databases, you need to restore this for
your user information and database connected to this instance
Tempdb
No need to back this up as each time the instance is stopped or started a
copy of the model database is created as a new tempdb.
Model
This is the structure of the database that is used when a fresh database is
created. If you know you want a function or procedure to be in all your new
database this is the idea place to put it as when it is created the function
will be in the new database
MSDB,
Holds all information about DTS and SQL Agents.
