*prepairing to be shot downI've never had any problems setting SA as the DB owner with the SA account disabled, its a practice I follow even when the instance is in Windows Authentication only
Before you criticize anything in this article, go to http://www.brentozar.com/blitz/, download the code for the sp_Blitz stored proc and run the stored procedure. The stored procedure will then return results about your server, including any SA/DB Owner issues. But it also includes URL links to articles explaining why these issues are bringing brought to your attention. There are times when many of the things outlined are acceptable. The authors (Brent Ozar & Team), aren't preaching a set of must dos and don'ts, but rather guidelines. These guidelines often have exceptions to the rule.
I would suggest looking into the meat of sp_Blitz a little deeper before bashing the author of this 'Intro to sp_Blitz' article. I'm guessing here that Brent Ozar and his team are a bit more knowledgeable than you regarding SQL Server, so it's probably good advice to listen to them. At least look into their reasoning before bashing the author here.
.... as your first post in the forum you took a rather aggressive approach to "comment" on a very valid post sharing a personal experience.... maybe you should keep lingering and reading...for now.
We use sp_blitz frequently and have done so for quite a few iterations of the script.... a must have tool for any DBA.
