sp_apply_job_to_targets provides an easy way to apply (or remove) a job from multiple target servers, and is an alternative to calling sp_add_jobserver (or sp_delete_jobserver) once for each target server required.

Only members of the sysadmin fixed server role can execute this procedure.

The following example applies the previously created Backup Customer Information job to all the target servers in the Servers Maintaining Customer Information group.

USE msdb ;
GO

EXEC dbo.sp_apply_job_to_targets
    @job_name = N'Backup Customer Information',
    @target_server_groups = N'Servers Maintaining Customer Information', 
    @operation = N'APPLY' ;
GO
