Chris Sommer has a gripe about the schedule_uid column in SQL Agent jobs:
When you script out a SQL Agent Job you’ll notice that the job schedule will have a schedule_uid parameter (providing your job has a schedule). The gottcha lies in that schedule_uid. If you create another job schedule with the same schedule_uid, it will overwrite the schedule for any jobs that are using it. i.e. Any other jobs that are using that schedule_uid will start using the new schedule. Normally I consider UID’s as very unique and chances of a collision are low, but if you do a fair amount of copying jobs between SQL Servers there’s a good chance this will bite you eventually. That’s what happened to us (more than once).
Lets see if I can explain it better in an example.
Something to think about when scripting SQL Agent jobs.
