SQL 2000 no job history on Purge jobs

  • In SQL 2000, Purge jobs shows "no information history" message appears when I try to "view job history" for any purge jobs.

    Other jobs shows steps, only the purge jobs don't. Jobs did complete successfully.

    Is this normal in sql 2000?

  • Is this "purge job" is something you authored?

    I've had a lot of trouble on busy servers trying to get SQL Server to store enough history to be useful. Frequently-running jobs forced the history on other jobs to roll off.

    Have you tried increasing the size of the logs allocated?

  • Yes, this purge was authored.

    No, I have not tried to increase log size. But will do so.

    Thanks for the tip.
