MSXDefect Method
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 MSXDefect method ends SQL Server Agent participation in a multiserver administration group.
Syntax
object.MSXDefect()
Parts
- object
Expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list.
Prototype (C/C++)
HRESULT MSXDefect();
Remarks
For Microsoft SQL Server, multiserver administration participation is configured by performing two tasks. An instance of SQL Server declares itself a multiserver administration master server (MSX) by creating an administering operator. One or more instances of SQL Server then enlist with the master server, becoming administration target servers (TSX).
To break a master-target relationship in a multiserver administration group
Get the JobServer object referencing the SQL Server Agent of the target server.
Use the MSXDefect method to break the relationship.
