    Hi All

    I have SQL jobs (Maintenance plan ) running on recycling error log and keep 1 year of logs

    It was running well in the beginning but after I rename and disable SA account , the jobs start failing .

    What should I do to fix this ?

    On the other hand I have to rename and disable SA account for security purpose ( prevent brute force attack )

    Your feedback is much appreciated

    Whats the full error message you get.

    Renaming disabling the actual SA account is fine jobs can still be owned by that account, that is what I do on my servers and everything works fine.

    Same here.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
