Can you deploy 2008 packages to 2012?

Question

If an SSIS package was developed using SQL Server 2008 R2, can you deploy/run the package on a 2012 instance?

Answer 1

If u just want to run the package then you can use Batch File (Keep Package in a folder) and call it by batch job.
Follow below steps:
In any Drive Create a folder called Build or any name--> Inside that create a folder "Config" for Config files and keep your configuration files if any
                                                       in Build or any name-->Create another folder "Folde_Where_Package"
                                                       in Build or any name-->Create another folder "Logs"
                                                       in Build or any name-->Create another folder "ETL_Jobs"
Keep this in Note pad and save this by giving extension .BAT in folder ETL_Jobs
set config1=D:\Config\Database.dtsConfig
SET LOGFILE=..\Logs\Run_Log.txt
dtexec  /REPORTING E /f "..\Folde_Where_Package\Pkg_Nmae1.dtsx" >> "%LOGFILE%"
dtexec  /REPORTING E /f "..\Folde_Where_Package\Pkg_Nmae2.dtsx" >> "%LOGFILE%"
Just double click on .BAT file it will execute your packages or can call this by using windows scheduler.
you can do same thing by creating 2 separate folders for 2008 and 2012 packages and can run separately.
