I learned something today about SQL 2008 and BizTalk's SQL agent jobs. You must leave all BizTalk databases recovery model to "Full". I encounted a database set with the recovery model that was changed to "Simple" and it caused the agent's jobs to fail.
The reason for this is that "TRUNCATE_ONLY" has been deprecated for SQL Server 2008. This flag forces you to keep the recovery model as full. When I changed it back everything began funtioning normally again.

How to solve "Unable to determine if the owner has server access" error
This error message popped up all of a sudden during a load test with heavy volume.
Turns out to be a well known culprit to lots of BizTalk errors: the SQL Agent jobs were not running. Since we had just deployed to a test environment, and it was a new server, I didn't check to the Agent to see if it was running.
When I teach the class, I always mention this check, so I didn't follow my own advice. Anyway, the database server logs grew wildly and caused a shutdown.
When I configured and ran the jobs everything was fine, but it took a while for everything to complete.
