Arguments

  • [ @schedule_id = ] schedule_id
    The identifier of the schedule to modify. schedule_id is int, with no default. Either schedule_id or schedule_name must be specified.

  • [ @name = ] 'schedule_name'
    The name of the schedule to modify. schedule_nameis sysname, with no default. Either schedule_id or schedule_name must be specified.

  • [ @new_name= ] new_name
    The new name for the schedule. new_name is sysname, with a default of NULL. When new_name is NULL, the name of the schedule is unchanged.

  • [ @enabled = ] enabled
    Indicates the current status of the schedule. enabledis tinyint, with a default of 1 (enabled). If 0, the schedule is not enabled. When the schedule is not enabled, no jobs will run on this schedule.

  • [ @freq_type = ] freq_type
    A value indicating when a job is to be executed. freq_typeis int, with a default of 0, and can be one of these values.

Remarks

All jobs that use the schedule immediately use the new settings. However, changing a schedule does not stop jobs that are currently running.

Permissions

By default, members of the sysadmin fixed server role can execute this stored procedure. Other users must be granted one of the following SQL Server Agent fixed database roles in the msdb database:

  • SQLAgentUserRole

  • SQLAgentReaderRole

  • SQLAgentOperatorRole

For details about the permissions of these roles, see SQL Server Agent Fixed Database Roles.

Only members of sysadmin can modify a schedule owned by another user.

Examples

The following example changes the enabled status of the NightlyJobs schedule to 0 and sets the owner to terrid.

USE msdb ;
GO

EXEC dbo.sp_update_schedule
    @name = 'NightlyJobs',
    @enabled = 0,
    @owner_login_name = 'terrid' ;
GO
