SQL Server Agent Job Permission Issues.

Tags:

SSIS

Hello Folks,

I've got an SQL Agent Job that is calling a SSIS Package.  The package needs access to a mapped drive, and is deployed to the server. I can successfully call the package when i add a step of type Operating System (CmdExec) by doing something like the following.

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\90\DTS\Binn\DTExec.exe" /SQL "\PACKAGENAME" /SERVER SQLSERVERNAME /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF

I set this job to run as a Proxy User which has access to the mapped drive in question.

However, when I set the Agent Job Step up so that it is of type SQL Server Integration Services Package, run it as the same Proxy user as above.  I get a failure.

Is there a fundamental difference in calling one using CmdExec and another using, SSIS (theoretically doing the same thing...)

Could anyone shed some light on the major difference credential wise between these 2 methods of calling a SSIS Package

Thanks in Advance
