DBA DIARY

As a DBA I always look at tools that will make my life easier and  also ways to catch problems before they have an impact. The web is full of products but I have found 2 tools that I really like and its free
the one is Idera SQL Check. I like it because I have a view of everything going on and its realtime. The other tool is SQL Job Manager, this is also a tool where you can pickup problems very easely, whats nice
is if you have a couple of SQL servers, you have all the information together. These tools can be found @ http://www.idera.com/productssolutions/freetools/ . Give it a try?
