How to execute a SQL Server Job on AppHarbor database?

I got the answer to my earlier posted query. SQL server jobs are executed on AppHarbor as Background worker. The process is simple. 1. Create a windows job (any project that outputs an exe). 2. Integrate job with Quartz for scheduling 3. Upload to AppHarbor. 4. If you're already using a web or background worker, you may need to get extra subscription for a background worker.
The background worker automatically picks up the exe and executes it.

Is it possible to execute a Data Factory Pipeline as a step in a SQL Agent Job on Azure Managed Instance?

I've currently got an ETL process that dynamically builds and executes sql jobs based on job steps that are saved in my database. Included in these jobs are steps to call SSIS packages that move data from one server to another and/or call stored procs on target servers to do further processing. I'm looking at what it would take to migrate our process from SQL Server to a Azure Managed Instance. One of the specific things I'm looking at is the feasibility of replacing the steps that call the SSIS packages with steps that execute Azure Data Factory pipelines or other ADF actions that accomplish the same results. So far I have not run across any examples of this. Anyone have any experience with accessing Data Factory functionality with SQL Agent jobs?
You can run powershell scripts via SQL agent as mentioned in below MSFT docs:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/powershell/run-windows-powershell-steps-in-sql-server-agent?view=sql-server-ver16
And via powershell and ADF REST APIS, you can trigger the ADF pipelines

Run a scheduled job against 440+ sql server instances from a single server

sorry, I haven't been able to find exactly what I'm looking to accomplish in the message title so, here I am with maybe a duplicate question...
So... I have 440+ sql server instances registered in my local SSMS instance and what I want to do is to schedule a very simple T-SQL statement to run against all of those registered servers on a nightly basis. I don't want to mess around with 440+ sql server agent instances if I can avoid it for obvious reasons(I think). Any advice?

How to interchange steps and scheduled time of an existing job in Microsoft SQL server management studio?

There is an existing job which is scheduled to run daily in Microsoft SQL server management studio. It has 3 steps. I want to interchange the steps (step 2 and step 3 are to be interchanged). I also want to change the scheduled time. Can someone explain me the process to make these changes?
Script out jobs from management studio and then rearrange steps and modify schedule in the script.
Places to change should be obvious from the script generated by SMS.
Execute modified script and you are done (caveat changing job name or drop/create existing job)
While it is possible to use sql commands to create, modify or grop SQL Agent jobs, it's typically easier and safer to simply find the job in the Object Explorer (SQL Server Agent > Jobs > JobName) and modify it from there.
The Job Properties window will give you the option to rearrange the job steps with simple up/down arrows, from the "Steps" tab, and adjust schedules from the "Schedules" tab.

Schedule task to take backup of Remotely hosted database on my Local System

As I have already seen so many post but did not fine any proper solution I am posting this again.
I have one remotely hosted database. And I want to take daily backup of that on my local system. How can I do it? How can I create schedule task for the same process so I do not need to do it manually everyday?
Any Help?
Thanks
There are many ways to do this:
Create a network share on your "local" system, enable the service account of your SQL Server instance to write on this share
Create a maintenenace plan on your SQL Server and have it write to the shared folder or you can create an SQL Server Agent job directly

SSRS duplicate execution for single SQL Server Agent job

I had this weird issue after migrating the reporting server database to a new server.
The migration was pretty smooth, but after I started the reporting service in the new server, users will receive the same report subscription emails every 40-50 seconds.
For now I have removed the SMTP settings, so that the subscriptions will keep running, just no emails will be sent.
I have done the following:
Check the history of SQL Server Agent job. It looks ok, the job was ran daily at 8am.
Then I query the [ExecutionLog3] view, I can see the subscription has been executed multiple times.
So my question is: if the SQL Server Agent job didn't generate those reports, what else is generating those reports and executing those subscriptions?
Thanks in advance!
20150506: I made a screenshot to explain the problem:
How are you executing the ssrs reports from Agent job?
Check your report in report manager URL and go to Manage>Subscriptions. Check if any active subscriptions are available there for this report.
