I am trying to set up scheduled SQL backups of the IFS databases, however I get an error saying “Agent XPs Component is Turned Off as Part of the Security Configuration for this Server”.

 

I understand how to enable the Agent XP component, but wanted to check that this hasn't been turned of deliberately as part of the IFS installation?

Hi @IGMIGMIMXMD,

I’m not aware that the FSM or PSO Installer is disabling this DB component.

I think you can enable it without any issues. I’m using the SQL Server Agent as well in our internal environments for scheduled backup jobs.

Best regards

Roman
