  • Hi,

    It is not clear that you have problem with restoring of your msdb database or with the SSIS package inside msdb database. If you wnt to access SSIS package in msdb database, you have to connect to Integration services in Management studio and package will be stores under stored packages folder. Then you have to import the package to work with it.

  • NO, I try to explain me better.

    My MSDB is on, this is a restore copy...called MSDB_BKP.

    Now how get past version on a siss from this back up copy restore...I can't stop the real and running MSDB.

  • Hi All,

    is it possible to restore msdb only?

    lets say i modify some jobs and i want to recover it, do i need to restore only the msdb? or i still need to restore the master db?!?

    thanks

  • It is possible to restore MSDB, but the process is not the same as for one of the user databases.

  • i mean i installed a new instance of sql server in a new machine (sql 7)

    and my msdb backup is from different sql server instance?

  • Provided its from the same version of SQL, it can be restored. See the above link for details on how.

    The comment at the end refers to the restoring of model, not the restoring of msdb, which was the question here.
