and password is set to not to expire. If I change SQL agent service to run by network account then job will run.....below is the error I got:

Executed as user: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM. Login failed for user 'Domain_name\computer_name$'. [SQLSTATE 28000] (Error 18456). The step failed.

Are you trying to carry out a function on another SQL instance? its all pointing to a credential error.

Try creating a domain account to run you SQL Agent Server

this doesnt look like a SQL login. its a windows login
