OnSuccessStep Property

This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.

The OnSuccessStep property identifies the SQL Server Agent job step executed after the success of the referenced step.

Syntax

.OnSuccessStep [= value]

Parts

  • object
    An expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list
  • value
    A long integer that specifies a job step by ordinal number

Data Type

Long

Modifiable

Read/write

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT GetOnSuccessStep(LPLONG pRetVal);
HRESULT SetOnSuccessStep(long NewValue);

Remarks

On success of a job step, SQL Server Agent can stop the job (reporting success or failure), or if the job has more than a single step, it can attempt to execute the next step or another step in the job.

To direct job success logic to a specific step

  1. Set OnSuccessStep to indicate the job step that should execute.

  2. Set the OnSuccessAction property to SQLDMOJobStepAction_/GotoStep.
