Summary

Congratulations, you now have the basic information to manage your SSIS packages from managed code. You've seen how easy it is to transfer packages between your environments. You've also seen how to create and maintain package configurations to customize packages at runtime. In addition, you've seen how to configure log providers, which allow you to store the history of a package's execution.

In the second half of the chapter, you saw how to use the WMI Reader task and WMI Event Watcher task in your packages. Using these two tasks, you discovered how you can gain access to a huge amount of system information to use in your packages. Plus, you learned how to monitor the system for events to occur and perform actions in your SSIS package when those events occur.
