Job Category Constants (SQLDMO_CATEGORYTYPE_TYPE)

Job category constants classify categories used to organize Microsoft® SQL Server™ Agent jobs.

Job categories are visible in SQL Server Enterprise Manager, and the user can sort jobs listed by category. When an instance of Microsoft SQL Server is designated as a multiserver administration master server, SQL Server Enterprise Manager lists jobs using two folders. One folder lists jobs with categories whose type indicates a local target. The second folder lists jobs with categories whose type indicates that jobs of that category target one or more remote servers.

Constant Value Description
SQLDMOCategoryType_LocalJob 1 Category is used to classify jobs that will execute on an instance of SQL Server on which the job is stored.
SQLDMOCategoryType_MultiServerJob 2 Category is used to classify jobs that will execute on one or more target servers.
SQLDMOCategoryType_None 3 Job is not classified using a category.
SQLDMOCategoryType_Unknown 0 Job category is bad or invalid, or the category object references a classification used for alerts or operators.
