Is there any to do like this:

Ok, I have about 500 servers and I created the datbase with only one table to stored all the information for each server:

Table Design:

ServerName
OperatingSystem
ServerFunction
ServerLocation
ServicePack
BackupSystem
Model
Ram
Processor
etc,

Is there any way for me have the automatic information from each server insert into this table? without runing each command for each server?

thanks

Are you trying to automate the process ? If so, you could create a table (say servername, status ), populate it with server names, then run a cursor to get the info, write it into your table, change status to done, and get next servername. At least - off the top of my head, I think you can.

Only problem is, I think (correct me if I'm wrong) that you would need all 500 servers in the linked servers for your local machine. But if you're going to admin, you may want to do that anyway (btw - what is max number of linked servers ?)

Just a thought - I could be totally off-course here.
