Ability to schedule job across Domains
SQL Server. We have an intermediary box with Console installed with both SQL
Servers registered. I have setup a DTS that performs the transfer.
Problem: I can run the DTS manually but when I schedule the job to run
automatically I get an error message that the job cannot be run because the
user is a nonSysAdmin.
That is because the context of the package is different when you run it as a
job, instead of you running it. See if this helps:

Situation: I have to copy data from a host SQL Server and place it onto my
SQL Server. We have an intermediary box with Console installed with both
SQL
Servers registered. I have setup a DTS that performs the transfer.
Problem: I can run the DTS manually but when I schedule the job to run
automatically I get an error message that the job cannot be run because the
user is a nonSysAdmin.
|||Since the 1st box is accessed thru VPN, we have a 2nd box that acts as the
connecting device with console and is outside our domain, and the 3rd box is
inside our domain with SQL installed. I made the login, for test purposes a
member of sysadmin. This allowed me to schedule the job and it would run as
scheduled but now I get a message that it cannot find the server referenced
(a simply sql statement is my test to the 1st box).
Here is what the job history tells me:

Ability to create and schedule jobs on shared system
instance, just a DB. Users with DBO rights to their DB, no system roles, can
still create and schedule jobs under sql agent. I donâ't want to allow this,
how can I prevent it?Hello Jason,
You could use sqlagent proxy account to run the jobs if they are not in
sysadmin server role. If you want to prevent it, you could use the
following method:
1. Start SQL Server Enterprise Manager.
2. In SQL Server Enterprise Manager, expand Microsoft SQL Server, and then
expand SQL Server Group.
3. Expand the instance of SQL Server that you want to set up the proxy
account for.
4. Expand Management, right-click SQL Server Agent, and then click
Properties.
5. In the SQL Server Agent Properties dialog box, click the Job System
tab.
6. Under Non-SysAdmin job step proxy account, click to check the Only
users with SysAdmin priviledges can execute CmdExec and ActiveScripting job
steps check box.
If you have any further questions on the issue, please feel free to let's
know. Thank you.

Yes. If it's domain admin, it's by default in the group local admin groups.

only some commands are blocked as indicated by the descriptive text.
e.g. a user can create and run a job that does a simple select. but user
cannot run a job that kicks off a DTS package as it requires a cmdexec cmd,
he can create it though. I was wanting to block the running off all jobs to
force users to schedule them through a DBA.

>|||Hello Jason,
Sorry for my fault and I spoke too quick based on my memory. In SQLServer
2000, the following table describes the user context under which a
scheduled SQLServer Agent job is run depending on whether the owner of the
job is sysadmin in SQLServer or not.
Owner of job Job Type Job executed as (user)
=========== ========= =============
non-sysadmin TSQL [owner of Job]
non-sysadmin CmdExec/Activex [SQL Agent proxy account]
sysadmin TSQL [owner of Job]
sysadmin CmdExec/Activex [SQLServer startup account]
Also, scheduled DTS packages fall under CmdExec job type.
You are correct that the checkbox only blocks CmdExec and ActiveScripting
job of non-sysadmin users. They could still schedule and run jobs that
don't use CmdExec and ActiveScripting job etc.
Since the SQLagent will "impersonate" the user only when the user runs the
job step, actually there is no option to "deny" the user to access the
database objects that he has permissions in the first place.
However, you could deny the user to create jobs by the following method:
1. Add the user as a database user of msdb database.
2. Run the following statement to deny its permission to
use msdb
deny execute on msdb.dbo.sp_add_job to username
If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to let's
know. Thank you.

cannot run a job that kicks off a DTS package as it requires a cmdexec cmd,
he can create it though. I was wanting to block the running off all jobs to
force users to schedule them through a DBA.

Ability to create and schedule jobs on shared system
instance, just a DB. Users with DBO rights to their DB, no system roles, ca
n
still create and schedule jobs under sql agent. I don’t want to allow thi
s,
how can I prevent it?Hello Jason,
You could use sqlagent proxy account to run the jobs if they are not in
sysadmin server role. If you want to prevent it, you could use the
following method:
1. Start SQL Server Enterprise Manager.
2. In SQL Server Enterprise Manager, expand Microsoft SQL Server, and then
expand SQL Server Group.
3. Expand the instance of SQL Server that you want to set up the proxy
account for.
4. Expand Management, right-click SQL Server Agent, and then click
Properties.
5. In the SQL Server Agent Properties dialog box, click the Job System
tab.
6. Under Non-SysAdmin job step proxy account, click to check the Only
users with SysAdmin priviledges can execute CmdExec and ActiveScripting job
steps check box.
If you have any further questions on the issue, please feel free to let's
know. Thank you.

i checked the roles, he has none.
this is a windows account, it if has some high level, domain admin type

SQL Server for this user?

Yes. If it's domain admin, it's by default in the group local admin groups.
Local admin group is added in SQL server with sysadmin rights by default.
You may want to check the logins on the server to check this.
You may want to temporarily remove the login to test if the issue still
occurs. Thanks.

i guess becuase these to meet the criteria of that checkbox.
that checkbox you mentioned, what actually is considered a cmdexec step?
assuming that is the case, is there any other way to block users from
creating jobs?

I'd like to confirm if check the "Only users with SysAdmin priviledges can
execute CmdExec and ActiveScripting job
steps" check box in the sqlagent property dialog. If so, it's supposed that
a domain user without sysadmin rights shall be able to create job but the
job cannot run properly because there is no proxy agent account to run the
job.
If you have proxy account configured, you are not able to block only one
user/login using the proxy account because it's used as proxy for all users
without sysadmin rights.
I think cmdexec step in a job is actually run as the proxy account.

Sorry for my fault and I spoke too quick based on my memory. In SQLServer
2000, the following table describes the user context under which a
scheduled SQLServer Agent job is run depending on whether the owner of the
job is sysadmin in SQLServer or not.
Owner of job Job Type Job executed as (user)
=========== ========= =============
non-sysadmin TSQL [owner of Job]
non-sysadmin CmdExec/Activex [SQL Agent proxy account]
sysadmin TSQL [owner of Job]
sysadmin CmdExec/Activex [SQLServer startup account]
Also, scheduled DTS packages fall under CmdExec job type.
You are correct that the checkbox only blocks CmdExec and ActiveScripting
job of non-sysadmin users. They could still schedule and run jobs that
don't use CmdExec and ActiveScripting job etc.
Since the SQLagent will "impersonate" the user only when the user runs the
job step, actually there is no option to "deny" the user to access the
database objects that he has permissions in the first place.
However, you could deny the user to create jobs by the following method:
1. Add the user as a database user of msdb database.
2. Run the following statement to deny its permission to
use msdb
deny execute on msdb.dbo.sp_add_job to username
If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to let's
know. Thank you.

A variable may only be added once to either the read lock list or the write lock list
Hi All,
I have seen a few other people have this error.
Package works fine when run from BIDS, DTExec, dtexecui. When I schedule it, It get these random errors. (See below)
The main culprit is a variable called "RecordsetFileDIR" which is set using an expression. (@.[User::_ROOT] + "RecordSets\\")
A number of other variables use this as part of their expression and as they all fail, pretty much everything dies.
I have installed SP1 (Not Beta) on server. Package uses config files to set the value of _ROOT.
The error does not always seem to be with this particular variable though. Always a variable that uses an expression but errors are random. Also, It will run 3 out of 10 times without a problem. I am the only person on the server at the time.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Crispin

Guys at Microsoft - Am I going to have to pay to open a support call for this?
I have packages what run fine on one machine and randomly break when moved onto a server. Variables using expressions (Value set _only_ from a config file) break. Properties using these values intern, break.
I have seen other post with exactly the same problem, also with no answer...
Please help...
