     | [ @schedule_name = ] 'schedule_name' }

  • [ @schedule_name = ] 'schedule_name'
    The name of the schedule to set for the job. schedule_nameis sysname, with a default of NULL.

    Note

Remarks

The schedule and the job must have the same owner.

A schedule can be set for more than one job. A job can be run on more than one schedule.

This stored procedure must be run from the msdb database.

Permissions

By default, members of the sysadmin fixed server role can execute this stored procedure. Other users must be granted one of the following SQL Server Agent fixed database roles in the msdb database:

  • SQLAgentUserRole
  • SQLAgentReaderRole
  • SQLAgentOperatorRole

For details about the permissions of these roles, see SQL Server Agent Fixed Database Roles.

Microsoft SQL Server checks if the user owns both the job and the schedule.

Examples

The following example creates a schedule named NightlyJobs. Jobs that use this schedule execute every day when the time on the server is 01:00. The example attaches the schedule to the job BackupDatabase and the job RunReports.

Note

This example assumes that the job BackupDatabase and the job RunReports already exist.

USE msdb ;
GO

EXEC sp_add_schedule
    @schedule_name = N'NightlyJobs' ,
    @freq_type = 4,
    @freq_interval = 1,
    @active_start_time = 010000 ;
GO


EXEC sp_attach_schedule
   @job_name = N'BackupDatabase',
   @schedule_name = N'NightlyJobs' ;
GO

EXEC sp_attach_schedule
   @job_name = N'RunReports',
   @schedule_name = N'NightlyJobs' ;
GO
