  • Unless you want to look at SQL Server 2008 R2 multi-server management, you're just going to have to set up a lot of manual processes out to multple servers. No easy way around it, at all.

  • There are a lot third party tools for sale that will monitor multiple servers, also. I believe both Imceda and Red Gate have software, along with several other companies.

    Otherwise, as Grant said, use the 2008 tool (Grant, does that require a total-environment SQL Server upgrade?) or manually script this stuff out by hand.

    Actually, it's one of the few things from Microsoft that supports 2000 as well as 2005. So no, you don't have to upgrade everywhere to use it.
