Microsoft Windows server monitoring tools

  • 772

I'm more of a developer then an IT guy and I was wondering if there are any existing Microsof tools for monitoring servers and potentially SQL Server.

We have access to MSDN so anything created by Microsoft would be preferred.

    You should check out a product called SCOM from microsoft. Depending on if you have a virtual environment or not the pricing is pretty respectable these days.

  2. Have a look at the System Center products, specifically Operations Manager. It's available to download via MSDN, depending on your subscription level, however I don't know to what extent you'll be able to use it in production since MSDN only provides for single user testing purposes.
