SSIS Configuration with 2012 and 2008 R2 Question

  • Trying to find out if this is possible...

    Can a SQL Server 2012 machine acting as a SSIS App Server (running the SQL Job that does the execution) connect to a HA\DR environment where the actual package and table configurations are stored and be able to run the package/get the configuration information?

    What about if the SSIS App Server were the 2008 R2 machine and the HA\DR environment was running SQL Server 2012? Could this work?

    Thanks for any and all responses. I myself will continue to research.

    Thanks

  • When you run the job on a server, the package will be copied to that server. So the package itself will not be executed on the HA/DR environment where it is stored, but on your SSIS server. Which is the point I guess 🙂

    It doesn't really matter where your configurations are stored, as long as you have a valid connectionstring pointing to them.

    Regarding the different versions: 2008 cannot execute 2012 packages and 2012 will upgrade 2008 packages before executing them.
