I have my production server's data increasing very rapidly these days. The mdf files are almost increasing 50GB a week from last 2 weeks. Before that it was like 5GB a week or even less.How can I keep track of these databases?. How can I know which database is being used mostly? and which table is being populated recently with lots of data? |

Tara; I found your blog post really interesting and I had this exact problem a few years ago when I worked with an ASP provider with roughly 250 instances of sql server. I never got around the security part of it and logging in to each and every server...how do you do this? I see that the connection is using integrated security but how is this handled on the individual server? Are they all in the same domain?? Domain trusts..?- LumbagoMy blog (yes, I have a blog now! just not that much content yet) -> www.thefirstsql.com |

Yep, that explains it then. When I worked on this all instances belonged to different clients so I started creating some procedures using OPENROWSET and a table with specific sql server logins for each instance. I got it working in a test environment but getting it to run across vlans and different zones was a mess so the project basically got canned.- LumbagoMy blog (yes, I have a blog now! just not that much content yet) -> www.thefirstsql.com |
