Configuring Connection Managers For different DBs in different jobs

  • My team has just learned that using one db for all clients will not work and all clients need their own database. We have several packages deployed in one project and the project is configured using a reference to one enviroment. Id like to create copies of the DB for each client and use the same packages but create new jobs for calling the packages for different clients and configure the database for the connection mangers in the SQL Agent job. How could I go about doing this?

  • There is more than one way, but you could do the following:

    1. Create an SSISDB environment for each client and put all of the client-specific variables in them, keeping the variable names consistent across environments..
    2. Add references from your SSISDB project to all of the environments.
    3. When creating the multiple SQL Agent jobs, be sure to configure them to point to the relevant environment.

  • Ok, thanks Phil.

  • How many clients are you talking about?  it could get unwieldy pretty quickly.  Why did the multi-tenant db not work?

  • Multi tenant didnt work due to business contract rules. We only have 3 clients. I do have a question though. Would using the other enviroment in the SQL agaent job step override the ssis project referenced enviroment?
