Hello
For business requirements I want to create another sysadmin account called "sa2" and give it to the Software Developers/Business Analysts to use so they can perform their duties. What I want to do is implement a audit trail for that user only to capture any update/delete as well as creating databases, indexes, fields etc...pretty much everything for that user. We use SQL 2005 and 2008.
Have anyone done this before? Your help/advice is muchly appreciated.
Thanks
Brandon

By audit trail you mean sql profiler trace? You can track all these activities in the sql trace. Use the blank template and put the filters on loginname and the the operations you want to track.

Hi
Thanks for your advice.
I prefer not to use Profiler as it can consume CPU...and I want to be able to run this constantly.
Any other suggestions is appreciated.
Regards
Brandon

First thing I would ask, is why a sysadmin account, is this on a production server or on a test/development box. if you can lower the permissions needed for this user. then what you will need to audit with be smaller.
you can use audits in sql 2008 or in sql 2005, you can use server triggers. but both include quite a bit of work to implement properly.
