We have a server that runs multiple mission critical batch jobs. Currently we need to log onto this server with a specific userid or the jobs will fail. We would like to be able to run the jobs when the server is connected to the network but not logged on.
The server has several network drives mapped to it and we need to maintain those mappings. Is there a way to do this? Inquiring minds want to know.
Thanks.

Do you think you could use the shared path instead of the mapped drive letter in your jobs?

I agree with Shinoj: a UNC path is definitely a better option than trying to maintain a specific drive mapping.
If you really want/have to use a drive mapping I'd include setting that up into the job step, then explicitly dropping it at the end of the job step, but that seems pretty cludgy.
