[ @delete_unused_schedule = ] delete_unused_schedule

Permissions

By default, members of the sysadmin fixed server role can execute this stored procedure.

Note that the job owner can attach a job to a schedule and detach a job from a schedule without also having to be the schedule owner. However, a schedule cannot be deleted if the detach would leave it with no jobs unless the caller is the schedule owner.

Lyftron checks to determine whether the user owns the schedule. Only members of the sysadmin fixed server role can detach schedules from jobs owned by another user.

Examples

The following example removes an association between a 'NightlyJobs' schedule and a 'RebuildCache' job.

EXEC dbo.sp_detach_schedule
    @job_name = 'RebuildCache',
    @schedule_name = 'NightlyJobs' ;
