Job Fails when owned by user account

  • I have a current job which is launched by users, it uses xp_cmdshell to call BCP and import a large amount of data.

    Without using a proxy or sysadmin, is the only way to achieve this via scheduling or DTS?

  • Yes. If you don't have a proxy account setup, your users won't be able to run xp_cmdshell, even if you've granted access to it, unless they are sysadmins. Therefore, scheduling or DTS would be the only typical ways to do this.
