How does SQL Server store the information in Job Schedule Properties?

Every 20 minutes (this seems to NOT be configurable), the 'next run' information in sysjobschedules is updated by looking at the information you can see in sysschedules.

You know how when you define a job you have to go through a slightly convoluted process of rather than just saying 'run this job every monday', instead defining a schedule that says that, and associating the job with the schedule? This is why - they have independent existences.


And if you want to link the info in sysschedules to your job info:

use msdb;

select SYSJ.name, SYSS.* from sysjobs as SYSJ
inner join sysjobschedules as SYSJS on SYSJ.job_id = SYSJS.job_id
inner join sysschedules SYSS on SYSS.schedule_id = SYSJS.schedule_id;
