Remarks

sp_post_msx_operation must be run from the msdb database.

sp_post_msx_operation can always be called safely because it first determines if the current server is a multiserver Microsoft SQL Server Agent and, if so, whether objectis a multiserver job.

After an operation has been posted, it appears in the sysdownloadlist table. After a job has been created and posted, subsequent changes to that job must also be communicated to the target servers (TSX). This is also accomplished using the download list.

We highly recommend that the download list be managed by using the SQL Server Management Studio. For more information, see Viewing and Modifying Jobs.
