We have some very large DTS packages that are run nightly.

We they fail it is often difficult to diagnose because the error
details in Job History is truncated.  Is this information written to a
log anywhere, or is there a setting to increase the amount of
information that is stored?

Or... am I stuck with logging each step.

Thanks for the help,

DG

Hi

I believe the job step details are taken from the message column of the
sysjobhistory table which is limited to 1024 characters.
