Disabled Job Still Runs?

  • In SQL 2005 I found a job that was clearly marked as disabled within sysjobs but it still runs at its normal schedule. I have also disabled the schedule but I'm going to wait for its normal runtime to see if it continues to run. The job is an SSIS maintenance package that I did not write. Anyone else see this?

  • If the job still runs after disabling the schedule, try stopping and restarting the SQL Server Agent service.

  • even if a job is disabled you can launch it manualy or using sp_start_job.

    That's why I don't want sp_start_job in any application !

  • That's a good point. You should see if another job is starting the disabled job.

  • Resolved! Turns out it was the SQL Agent - stopped and restarted, and the job stopped running.
