SSIS 2008 package in MSDB missing when creating an Agent job

  • How did you deploy the package to the MSDB folder?

  • The deployment was using SSMS 2008 on a remote PC. The security setup was (on the development package) the default encrypt sensitive using user key, and on the import to MSDB was set to 'rely on server security' (or whatever the wording is).

  • No matter how many of SQL instances are installed on a box there is only one install of SSIS. This is used to service all the SQL installations. I am no expert in SSIS usage but I would have thought you specify which msdb to upload to at the time you do it from SSIS.

    you can configure SSIS to look at all your msdbs at once from SSMS - see this blog, it explains it quite well:

    Its talks about clusters but it holds tru for multi-instance standalone servers.

    The secret is in the editing of the MsDtsSrvr.ini.xml file

  • Since SSIS is server based instead of instance based, there didn't appear to be a good way to look at the instance. I will look into the information that was already given, but I found a way to handle it since I am always only working in one instance.

    I found an article in Books On Line about Configuring the Integration Services Service to use a local copy of Sql Server Express and point to an instance on a server.

    ms-help://MS.SQLCC.v10/MS.SQLSVR.v10.en/s10is_4deptrbl/html/36d78393-a54c-44b0-8709-7f003f44c27f.htm

    Per that article, I changed my local configuration of SSIS to point at the instance on the server instead of my local instance. When I connect to my local SSIS from Management Studio, I see the SSIS packages that are that instance on the server.
