    I got it wrong. I blame my total lack of interest in the R2 release.

    But a quick question - if Multi-Server Administration was a new feature in SQL Server 2008 R2, then why is there an article about Multuiserver Administration in Books Online for SQL Server 2000? See this link.

    I got it right, but I agree with you about "Multuiserver Administration", maybe it's new from Visual Studio????

    I found this http://www.digitchannelconnect.com/content/sql-server-2008-r2#

    Manage and monitor

    Among the new features included in SQL Server 2008 R2’s Management Studio application is the SQL Server Utility, which enables administrators to manage and monitor multiple database applications and server instances from a central interface called a Utility Control Point (UCP). I used the SQL Server Utility to group a pair of Server 2008 R2 instances together and track utilization and policy information for the instances from the Management Studio’s Utility Explorer interface.
