The content of SQL Server Agent was merged into Microsoft SQL Server on 04 June 2026. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists. For the discussion at that location, see its talk page.

Suggestion: Omit the section 'Currently' as that's always out of date

Bold merge from SQL Server Agent

Given the nature of SQL Server Agent being a service and a stub article, I have merged the contents verbatim into this article under the section "Service". NoahSPARC (talk) 04:03, 4 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
