Hi,

It is not clear that you have problem with restoring of your msdb database or with the SSIS package inside msdb database. If you wnt to access SSIS package in msdb database, you have to connect to Integration services in Management studio and package will be stores under stored packages folder. Then you have to import the package to work with it.

It is possible to restore MSDB, but the process is not the same as for one of the user databases.

Provided its from the same version of SQL, it can be restored. See the above link for details on how.

The comment at the end refers to the restoring of model, not the restoring of msdb, which was the question here.
