sqlagent job failing

  • Hi,

    one of our test server under sql agent + Maintenance plan some jobs are running daily under login : sa pwd :xyz as per the schedule under local account service

    sqlversion 2005 enterprice edition.

    now we have changed sa pwd xyz to abcd now all the jobs are failing.

    my question is if you change sa password to new password do we need to change password for all jobs individually or sql server will take automatically the newly changed sa password

    please clarify my question

  • it will be get reflected automatically to all the area/section wherever used.

    but haven't you hard coded rthe password anywhere ?

    have you checked the job history for error ?

  • Is it the jobs that are failing or the agent is failing to start?

    What login does the agent use to run?
