I have a table on which i want to perform some operations after every hour. For this I created a Stored Procedure but dont know how to call it after every hour. I know their are some kind of scheduled jobs but how to use them.
Is it their some kind of service also that keeps on running continously every second where i can place my piece of code to be executed ?
Set up a SQL Server agent job to execute the stored procedure at 1 hour intervals
Hello
1) Use the SQL Server Agent (open MS Management Studio) 2) New Job 3) Add Step 4) Choose Transact SQL 5) EXEC MyStroredProc 6) Choose database 7) Add schedule 8) Occurs every hour
Add notification to know that process is doing well (or bad).
In the properties of SQL Server Agent check that all Auto restart options are switch ON
In SSMS navigate to SQL Server Agent-->Jobs Right click on the Job Folder and select new job
on the dialog that pops up, give the job a name click on steps, then on new, you will see a dialog like the following, pick correct DB and type your proc name
after that click on schedule, pick new and you will see something like the image below, fill all the stuff you need and click ok, click ok on the job and you should be set
