Home Forums SQL Server 2012 SQL 2012 - General Changing password of sa account and / or disabling the sa account -> SQL agent jobs RE: Changing password of sa account and / or disabling the sa account -> SQL agent jobs

  • Yes,
           if sa is disabled, sa owned jobs will run and sa owned databases will be accessible.  SA is disabled on all our boxes at setup and we have no problems with sa ownership. 
        However, I wouldn't necessarily trust "Random Bod On The Internet", you should test it first to make sure you're happy to put the configuration live.

    I'm a DBA.
    I'm not paid to solve problems. I'm paid to prevent them.
