Default DTS Package Ownership Question - 08-16-2006 , 01:05 PM






Hello All,
Wondering if anyone ahs thoughts on what the best practice for ownership of
a DTS package is?

We have several biz-critical packages that are owned by individual
developers.
One of the owner/developers has recently terminated employment and we wish
to remove the associated login.

Obviously this will create problems.

Moving forward I wondered what any of the gurus present here would recommend
as a bets practice for this type of thing as well as pros/cons?

Thanks in advance.

Tam.

You can drop the login that owns the package - it won't
break anything. There is a good discussion on ownership at
sqldts.com:

Thanks for the info. Sue it was of assistance.

I'm looking for ideas on what user to make the owner of a given DTS package
in a production environment.

Thoughts on best practices for this scenario?

What do you folks do?


Thx.

I don't pay any attention to it and don't worry about it
really. Never had any problems with it. As the article says,
ownership is generally not an issue. Non-sysadmins don't
make changes in production in the environments I've worked
in so there wouldn't be anything to cause any issues.
