Check all your SQL Agent jobs. Probably find it's a badly written index rebuild job.

Hi, thanks foir the reply, I looked with this search in all jobs:(with SET RECOVERY, ALTER DATABASE, DBCC SHRINK)

EXEC sp_MSForEachDB ' Use ?; select ''?'', o.name,m.definition from ?.SYS.sql_modules m

inner join SYS.sysobjects o on m.object_id=o.id

where definition like ''%SET RECOVERY%'''

Didn't find anything, just comments...

Tell me what you think.

That query's searching procedures and functions, not jobs.

Look at your SQL Agent scheduled jobs, check their steps, see what they do.

You can try this as a shortcut

SELECT *

FROM msdb.dbo.sysjobsteps

WHERE command LIKE 'alter database%';

Hi,

The Jobs perform 2 things:

1) calls to stored procs, that I already checked

2) Calls to DTSx (Haven't checked)

So, besides the DTS, is there anything automatic or internal of SQL Server that could be doing this?

No. SQL will never automatically change database settings. If recovery model is changing, you have some task that someone created which is doing that.

Like Gail said, this is something that somebody has created/written/implemented that is changing your recovery models.
