Can same DTS package called by multiple User?

  • Hi All,

    I have a question regarding DTS. Let say I have one DTS package as "ProcessMasterData". I wants the same DTS package should called by all the users who wants to upload data from Source to Destination table. Here My question is: IS IT POSSIBLE OR NOT?

    If possible then how?

    This related one more question, if in same time multiple user access the same DTS, which is design on the static Source and destination table will it be raise an error or not?

    Cheers!

    Sandy.

  • Hello,

    Multiple users can execute the same DTS package, for example by using the dtsrun utility, or from a custom application. (Please see the SQL 2000 BOL topic "Executing a DTS Package")

    If the DTS package does not drop and re-create the Target Table, but just updates or inserts records, then in general you would not have any conflicts (beyond the usual Locking ones). When you design the Package, you do though need to consider multi-user operation.
