4 INTRODUCTION
4.1 Overview

SQL Server Agent is a Microsoft Windows service that executes scheduled administrative tasks,
which are called jobs in SQL Server 2017.

SQL Server Agent uses SQL Server to store job information. Jobs contain one or more job steps.
Each step contains its own task, for example, backing up a database. SQL Server Agent can run
a job on a schedule, in response to a specific event, or on demand. For example, if you want to
back up all the company servers every weekday after hours, you can automate this task.
Schedule the backup to run after 22:00 Monday through Friday; if the backup encounters a
problem, SQL Server Agent can record the event and notify you.

4.2 Prerequisites

1. Require to install SQL Server 2008 R2, 2012 SE, 2014 SE or 2016 SE
2. Require to add on services – SQL Server Agent
