I am working as a Erp Technical consultant from last 1 year i.e. based on sql server,where i have to perform erp activities as a support as well as some dba activities also on daily basis.I am comfortable with sql stored procedures,triggers,views/database backup,restoration,performance tuning.
But i wish to make my career in Database administration as a SQL DBA.
Please suggest me what i have to do for that.

First thing you must have knowlege about, what type of actions you will perform for differnt tasks. Like for point in time recovery you must have transactional log backups and before that you must change database recovery mode to FULL etc.
Sconds thing which is necessary is SQL Server Internals. You must know, how SQL Server actually works. That will help you have better idea about keeping things under control.

Read blogs from SQL Server Experts. Like Pinal Dave's SQLAuthority.com will help you to learn bit by bit, easily. SQL-Serve-Performance.com, SQLServerCentral.com, mssqltips.com, beyoundrelational.com etc
