Error: The SQL server job is in suspended mode-Unable to start execution of step 1 (reason: The %s subsystem failed to load [see the SQLAGENT.OUT file for details]; The job has been suspended). The step failed.
Infrastructure: SQL server 2005 and onward
Scenario: While I was working on database migration project for one of the my client and since it was SQL2005 32bits to SQL 2005 64bits migration project, I had replaced msdb database from sql server2005(32-bits) to sql server2005(64-bits) msdb database backup. Since the installation directory had been changed while replacing resulted in old directory entry in table ‘msdb.dbo.syssubsystems’
Resolution:
| 1.First take the backup of msdb database of newly migrated sql server. |
| 2. Delete the old entry which showing the old directory by running the t-sql command [DELETE FROM msdb.dbo.syssubsystems] |
| 3. Fill the table with new rows pointing to the proper location of the DLLs by running [EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_verify_subsystems 1] |
