I have a scheduled SQL job which run query across linked server failed, and I am thinking is the right issue for SQL agent service. Does anyone have the experience for setup the job run across linked server?

Thanks

When you right click on the job in the EM and choose View Job History and on the resulting screen, choose show step details, What is the error message on the bottom part of the screen for the job that failed?

Please backup all of your databases including master, msdb and model on a regular basis. I am tired of telling people they are screwed. The job you save may be your own.

I am available for consulting work. Just email me though the forum.

Does the user who owns the job or is specified as login in the linked server (depending on how you setup the linked server) have permissions on the tables of the other server?

do you really need to use linked server or is DTS an alternative?

anyways, you probably need to map the job owner to a remote login in your linked server, remember that linked server uses standard logins
