For the day-to-day DBA, there are dangers around every corner;
monsters waiting to strike down the unsuspecting database with a
resource-hungry query, an inefficient data load, or even outright
data corruption. When the worst happens, and SQL Server is down, or
performance is suffering, customers are quick to complain. During
such difficult periods, you, the DBA, are the centre of attention.
Suddenly, three or four people crowd your desk, laser beam focused
on your every action, fully expecting you to solve the problem
quickly. The success of your career as a DBA depends largely on how
well-prepared you are to deal with such situations. Without
verified backups, sound server documentation, and a ready supply of
tried-and tested troubleshooting tools, there is no safe place to
hide when the monster rears up. All you can do is buy some time,
patch things up as best you can and then duck away into your
cubicle, which, if you lost any data in the process, may soon be
empty. However, with the tools and techniques provided in the SQL
Server Tacklebox, you will be fully-equipped to fight back. Inside,
you'll find scripts that will allow you to automate and standardize
SQL Server installation, document and report on your servers,
migrate data and manage data growth, troubleshoot performance
issues, receive notifications of impending danger, secure access to
your servers and fight off data corruption. In short, you'll be
able to respond quickly and professionally to the many issues that
blight the waking, and often sleeping, hours of the DBA. Then, one
day, who knows? That cubicle may turn into an executive office with
wall-to-wall tinted windows revealing a flowing brook outside,
where no monsters live.
