Are there any recommended tools from your experience? Or any tools with with you have had bad experience?

Monitoring Tools

Dec 22, 2004

Hi all,

I'm looking into the possibility of buying (as I doubt there's any good free options) a SQL Server Monitoring tool.

Has anyone got any particular recommendations - good or bad? I know a little about Spotlight, but not much else.

Thanks in advance.

Server Monitoring Tools

Jun 14, 2000

I want to know if there are any tools that will allow
a DBA to monitor changes that occur on SQL databases
(deletion, addittion or modifications) on any objects,
and Sql security.

I have looked at Profiler in SQL and it is very limited
and plus it is huge memory hog and causes degradation on
your servers.

3rd Party Monitoring Tools

Apr 11, 2002

I have been using the built-in tools of SQL Server (email and netsend) to monitor and alert me about some basic issues (like severity errors and job failures) with our SQL servers. We are now approaching a level and number of servers where I think we need to get a more global and more stable solution to monitoring and alerting.

So what third party tools are you are using to monitor your SQL Servers?

Thanks

Backup Strategy - SQL2005 Tools Versus 3rd Party Tools

Jun 1, 2007

I am running SQL Server 2005 x64 Enterprise under Windows 2003 x64 Enterprise. My current backup strategy uses T-SQL jobs run by SQL Agent (writes out *.bak files) and then I have an Integration Services job that copies the *.bak files to our NAS device. I have performed a restore without issue. The jobs are all automated every four hours via SQL Agent. Is this a sound strategy or are there additional benefits to using 3rd party tools? If so, what are the advantages and which tool provides them?

Design Tools / Sql Server Mgt Tools Cause Login Fail

Sep 20, 2007

Login failed for user 'TOSHIBA-USERASPNET'
I know that the file persmission for the web application have to include aspnet, so i keep resetting the folder permission for aspnet in file manager, but the login failed keeps coming back every day or two
problem is after working with VS05 Pro, SQL Server Management Studio CTP, somehow the aspnet persmission get changed, use alot of sqldatasource wizards and often there is a conflict/hang between the datasource wizard and the need to have the mdf in a dettached state within VS server explorer,
not sure but the procedure to fix this seems to be to reboot, detach and re-attach the mdf in the Sql server Studio tool, re-apply the aspnet file permission on the web app folders (wonder should i be doing this in IIS instead), make sure the mdf within server explorer is detached, the it works
anyway, getting real tired of the resulting delays and design time derailment, clues greatly appreciated, thanks
 sometimes i can use View in Browser when in VS05 form view and i wont get the aspnet folder permission error and other times i do.
last thing, is it a bad idea to give aspnet full permission for the entire web applicaiton??

SQL Tools :: Tools To Determine Version From BAK File

Apr 24, 2014

Is there - apart from the notorious RESTORE HEADERONLY - an tool which is able to tell which SQL Server version created a specific BAK file? I'm looking for a tool that can be used w/o an available/running SQL Server installation.

Alternatively, is there any documentation about what is read with RESTORE HEADERONLY so I could write a tool myself?

Where would I find the version "bytes" in a BAK file?

CPU Monitoring

Aug 16, 2000

I understand the rule of thumb that the CPU should not be over 90%. If you take the four counters (%processor time,%privileged time, %user time, %interrupt time, and interrupt seconds), what combination gives you your CPU
time ?

Health Monitoring And IIS

Feb 5, 2007

Hi,
I have implemented health monitoring for my web-site, using the SQL provider.
Health monitoring works fine when the website is run from VS2005, using the built in web server, all the expected events are inserted into the aspnet database.  However when I deploy the site onto IIS, no events are ever inserted into the database. 
I would appreciate some help figuring out why this is happening!  The code that implements the health monitoring in my web.config file is:1 <healthMonitoring
2 enabled="true"
3 heartbeatInterval="0">
4 <bufferModes>
5
6 <remove name="Analysis"/>
7
8 <add name="Analysis"
9 maxBufferSize="10"
10 maxFlushSize="2"
11 urgentFlushThreshold="2"
12 regularFlushInterval="00:00:02"
13 urgentFlushInterval="00:00:01"
14 maxBufferThreads="1"/>
15
16 </bufferModes>
17
18 <providers>
19
20 <remove name ="SqlWebEventProvider"/>

Database Monitoring

Jan 19, 2005

Can anybody help me with the following on my MS SQL Server 2000 database.

1. All tables should have a lastModificationDate column. Any changes and inserts should have the system time updated with a trigger or so. We shouldn’t be inserting the value using SQL statements into this column.

2. There shouldn’t be any deletes on the table. Any deleted records should be marked as inactive or deleted, so it won’t come in queries, but should be physically present in the tables.

3. A modification log table, which will carry the table name, the column identifier, user modified, old value and the timestamp.

Thanks
Kishore
