HI all,

We have a scheduled task that I believe is redundant (due to us having 3rd party monitoring software) and that, as a job in its own right, is causing alerts to fire when it fails.

Can anyone confirm/refute what I believe the script does? I believe one sproc basically checks whether log shipping is still in synch, and if not, fires another that generates an error in the SQL log. As we are using the monitoring tool we therefore have double the number of alerts needed.

The idea is to disable/delete this job if found redundant.

Thanks,

BLL
