| Hi, I am trying to prepare for the sql server 2005 database developer exam. in the book i'm using - the author is using windows xp and creating a performance alert using performance logs and alerts. in his example, he is adding the sqlserver:databases percent log used counter to the alert and setting it to send a message in the application log. i'm trying to do the same in vista but perfmon is slightly different. now you have to create a data collector. most of the steps are similar. i can create an alert, add the appropriate counter, set it to send message to application log and everything. however, in this example, he set the limit to 50 for the percent log full counter then creates a script that will loop 1000 times and add the system user and the date and time in a test database - then when you check the application log your supposed to see entries from your alert. the only thing is, my alert isn't showing up in the application log. the alert is definitely running and i set it to sample for 10 days. has anyone else experienced this? |
