I have a job on an SQL 2008 server (Server A) (I know this is not ideal... That issue is being addressed). The agent runs under NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE.



I want to add a step that runs a job that sits on another SQL 2014 server (Server B).



I would use:



EXEC [Server B].msdb..sp_start_job N'JobName'


Ran from Server A manually it executes the job on Server B fine as expected.



If I add the task to a job on Server A it fails with message:




Executed as user: NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE. The EXECUTE permission
was denied on the object 'sp_start_job', database 'msdb', schema
'dbo'. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 229). The step failed.




I have assigned NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE on Server B to the 'TargetServerRole' in msdb and then granted Execute permission to concern user to SP_Start_Job and SP_Stop_Job.



Server A has Server B as a linked server and I tried setting "Local server login to remote server login mappings" Local login NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE to impersonate.



The job still fails with the same error.



What do I need to do?



Thanks

          You probably don't want to grant direct access to sp_start_job or sp_stop_job, or even grant access to a range of SQL Agent functionality via SQLAgentOperatorRole, to either NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE or MyDomainServerA$. Doing any of those combinations would, at the very least, allow any process running as NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE on ServerA the ability to start and/or stop any job on ServerB.



          Using Module Signing, you can set up very granular permissions such that MyDomainServerA$ (or any login or role, or any combination of those) can only start and stop that one particular job.



          USE [msdb];
          GO
          CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.StartStopJobX
          (
          @Operation VARCHAR(10) = 'start'
          )

          AS
          IF (@Operation = 'start')
          BEGIN
          EXEC dbo.sp_start_job N'job_name';
          END
          ELSE
          BEGIN
          EXEC dbo.sp_stop_job N'job_name';
          END;
          GO


          CREATE CERTIFICATE [SqlAgentPermissions]
          ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'change_me'
          WITH SUBJECT = 'Allow low-priviledged accounts to start/stop certain jobs',
          EXPIRY_DATE = '2099-12-31';

          ADD SIGNATURE
          TO dbo.StartStopJobX
          BY CERTIFICATE [SqlAgentPermissions]
          WITH PASSWORD = 'change_me';

          CREATE USER [SqlAgentPermissions] FROM CERTIFICATE [SqlAgentPermissions];

          ALTER ROLE [SQLAgentOperatorRole] ADD MEMBER [SqlAgentPermissions];


          Now all you need to do is:



          GRANT EXECUTE ON dbo.[StartStopJobX] TO [MyDomainServerA$];

            NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE, is a local account, but it can authenticate on the network using the server's computer account (assuming the server is domain-joined).



            You need to create a login on Server B for the computer account of Server A.



            Eg if the computer name of Server A is "ServerA", then its computer account is named "ServerA$", so something like:



            use msdb

            create login [MyDomainServerA$] from Windows
            create user [MyDomainServerA$] for login [MyDomainServerA$]
            alter role SQLAgentOperatorRole add member [MyDomainServerA$]

                  CREATE USER [SqlAgentPermissions] FROM CERTIFICATE [SqlAgentPermissions];

                  ALTER ROLE [SQLAgentOperatorRole] ADD MEMBER [SqlAgentPermissions];


                  Now all you need to do is:



                  GRANT EXECUTE ON dbo.[StartStopJobX] TO [MyDomainServerA$];

                      NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE, is a local account, but it can authenticate on the network using the server's computer account (assuming the server is domain-joined).



                      You need to create a login on Server B for the computer account of Server A.



                      Eg if the computer name of Server A is "ServerA", then its computer account is named "ServerA$", so something like:



                      use msdb

                      create login [MyDomainServerA$] from Windows
                      create user [MyDomainServerA$] for login [MyDomainServerA$]
                      alter role SQLAgentOperatorRole add member [MyDomainServerA$]
