Shay writes "Hi
I wrote afew scripts & stored procedures that backup adatabase on my production server and send it to astandby server. after the backup is copied to the standby server I fire astored procedure on the standby server which actually restores the database on the standby server.
Yesterday I changed the password for sa and the last step (which fires the stored procedure on the standby server) fails. the message in the job history says:"Login failed for user sa".

What should I do with schedueld jobs of sql server Agent after changing sa password ???

Thanks."

Does this mean you have a remote connection to the sandby server? If so you may want to check this.....

Peace

IF you have the SQL AGENT running under a designated account, you may need to update the password. Check your SERVICES to see what account it is running under.
