This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.

The Operators collection contains Operator objects referencing SQL Server Agent operators.

Remarks

With the Operators collection, you can:

• Create a SQL Server Agent operator.
• Remove a SQL Server Agent operator.
• Generate a Transact-SQL script that can be used as part of a SQL Server administrative task, such as installation backup.

For more information about creating a SQL Server Agent operator by using the Operator object and Operators collection, see Operator Object.

To remove a SQL Server Agent operator

1. Use the Remove method of the Operators collection, as in:

   oJobServer.Operators.Remove("stevenb")
   

When using the Item or Remove method, the Operators collection supports member identification using either name or ordinal reference syntax. For example:

Set oOperator = oJobServer.Operators("someone")

Or:

Set oOperator = oJobServer.Operators(1)

Note

Creating or removing a SQL Server Agent operator by using the Operators collection requires appropriate privilege. The SQL Server login used for SQLServer object connection must be a member of the fixed role sysadmin.
