�Scheduled jobs often will invoke stored procedures on the target server to perform the required function. The following example shows a scheduled job invoking sp_who:�
use sybmgmtdb� go declare @jobcmd varchar(255), @jobid int� select @jobcmd=’jcmd=exec sp_who,server=YOUR_SERVER’� + ‘,starttime=’ + convert(varchar(32),getdate())� exec @jobid=sp_sjobcreate ‘sjname=hello’, @jobcmd� go
where YOUR_SERVER is the name of your target server.
When Job Scheduler executes a job it prefixes the job
text with SQL that creates the
job runid and the scheduled job ID.
Therefore, the call to sp_who needs
to use exec to
invoke the stored procedure.�
