SQL Server - 'DHYAN' An Attention

'DHYAN' An Attention


It has been found that being a DBA we should give attention on some of the important things as per routine DBA activities...


These are...

- Continuously monitoring for Blocking and Deadlocks.

- Monitoring Long running Jobs and Queries.

- Monitoring if all necessary SQL services are up and running.

- Monitoring if Backups are successfully completed.

- Monitoring all the databases are online.

- Monitoring SQL Server error Logs.

- Monitoring if Database Mail is running fine to ensure that alerts/notifications are being sent.

- Monitoring for Latest Cumulative updates, Service packs and License Expiry.

- Monitoring Space issue, Now there one important thing is here that we need to ensure that we are monitoring all the drives of the server other than Database drives.

- Monitoring Database file space.

- Monitoring Logspace.
