I have an SSIS Package, call it PackageA. Sometimes, I want to have it logging to a text file, while other times, I do not. My initial though was to have the package check a table, then use a variable/expression to enable/disable logging. I am assuming this is not possible?

My work around is to create a “master” package, PackageB, with a SQL task to get whether or not to enable logging. PackageB would call PackageA1 or PackageA2 depending on the value–PackageA1 would be PackageA deployed with logging enabled and PackageA2 would be PackageA deployed with logging disabled.

That makes deployment a hassle and easy to mess up, however. Is there any way to accomplish, at the very least, something similar to what I am looking for?

Thanks!

    Packages have LoggingMode property, which you can change when you run package using GUI or dtexec command line switch: (more info)

    dtexec /f "C:\Package.dtsx" /set "\Package.Properties[LoggingMode];2"

    If you use SSIS 2012 and Project Deployment Model you can also set LOGGING_LEVEL parameter from None to Verbose by using for example catalog.set_execution_parameter_value stored procedure (more info).
