Releasing SMT 1.3
by Michal Kovaľ on 01/07/2021A release of SMT 1.3 have just commenced
Read moreTo resolve the issue, first I need to find which login wizard is trying to drop. Since i didn't know, I have used this aproach:
Find job to login owner relationship:
SELECT j.job_id ,j.owner_sid ,j.name , l.name
FROM msdb.dbo.sysjobs AS j LEFT JOIN
sys.server_principals AS l
ON J.Owner_sid = l.sid
Then focus on owners having specific amount (2 in my case) of jobs assinged:
SELECT l.name, COUNT(*)
FROM msdb.dbo.sysjobs AS j LEFT JOIN
sys.server_principals AS l
ON J.Owner_sid = l.sid
GROUP BY l.name
HAVING COunt(*) = 2 --here you may filter the amount of jobs owner should own
When I knew the job owner, it was easy to list just his jobs:
SELECT l.name, COUNT(*)
FROM msdb.dbo.sysjobs AS j LEFT JOIN
sys.server_principals AS l
ON J.Owner_sid = l.sid
GROUP BY l.name
HAVING COunt(*) = 2 --here you may filter the amount of jobs owner should own
Hope it helps.
With regards,
Michal.
