DTEXEC
DTEXEC is a command line utility that allows you to congure and execute SISS
packages. It provides access to all package and execution options.

June 201

You can load packages from the following sources:

August 2

Integration Services server

.ispac project le
SQL Server database
SSIS Package Store
File system
You can use DTEXEC to run a package created in earlier versions, which are
temporarily upgraded, but you cannot permanently save those packages.
64-bit vs 32-bit
On a 64-bit computer, the 64-bit version of DTEXEC is installed. If you want to use
the 32-bit version you will need to install it.
When both are installed SSIS will attempt to run 32-bit version because the
directory appears in the PATH variable. SQL Agent, however, will run the 64-bit
version.
