Language/Subsystem
Specify the language of the command text.

Command Text

Output Filename
Specify the file in which to store the results of the Transact-SQL or CmdExec job step. Click the browse (...) button to search for a directory in which to store the output file.

Success Code
A job step that executes a command shell process relies on the process exit code to determine the success or failure of the job step. Set this option to the successful return code of a command shell process to enable logic and notifications based on the success or failure of the job step. This option is only available when you use an Operating System Command (CmdExec) job step.

Retry attempts
Specify the number of retry attempts to be made if the step fails.

Retry interval (minutes)
