| Eric writes "I am creating a job with several tasks that would backup the database and then copy it to another server. The backup is running but the copy portion (which runs a copy batch file) is not. I can run the batch file via DOS and by clicking it but I cannot run it via job. I am getting an error: Acess Denied. Is this a network issue?Also, i am planning to have the backup restored in the target server via jobs. Is this possible?" |

| It's a network permissions issue. The batch file is running under the security context of the account you are using to start the SQL Agent Service. This account will need to be a Domain User and have rights to the network share you are trying to access. Be sure to use full UNC paths when you are pointing to a share. Mapped drives are not available to accounts that are not logged on interactively. If you want to test the accounts permissions run the batch file or copy statement from xp_cmdshell in QA.
