Hi Ritesh,

I also implemented these automation on our servers. I think you missed few more things like when new db created, dropped and altered on the server, reading sql server error log, login creation and dropped. Depending on our requirement we can automate few more tasks. Its a good example for other DBA to take a look and make there routine work easy. In this method a single DBA can maintain multiple servers and database simultaneously and also increases DBA productivity.

Thanks
Omprakash

Hi
I am a novice DBA but I was thrilled to read your article and found it very helpful. This gives me an opportunity to automate my SQL health checklist, I wonder if it is possible to create a realtime dashboard to monitor database and server performance related issues?

I dislike that the article contains this.

"use any HTML editor like Microsoft FrontPage, which is the nice and easy to use application"

That looses a lot of credibility, especially since creating html is not the focal point of the task.

The article itself provides good information on a subject that's very important for the (often unintentional) DBA; that is keeping an eye on things. It could do with an update to ss2008.

thanks OM. I totally agree with you the items you mentioned are core DBA activities. This article just features basic items which need to be monitored on any DB server. This is good to start with for people who have no monitoring in place.

Download the attached file and then execute. I think while copying you missed some code. For me it worked properly.

Any idea on how to capture CPU % used by sql server?.
I mean CPU % shown in task manager or process - Processor%time-> perfmon counter and not the CPU cycles shown by sysprocess or @@cpu_busy ( cpu ticks )

Raj
