Monitoring Production Instances.

[sgbergkam@gmail.com]

We will soon have 200 + production instances. In an effort to be more
pro active, I am looking for a way to monitor jobs, both failed and
long running, Disk space, and other such things like CPU load etc.
I would appreicate any suggestions you might have on accomplishing
this. For instance, is there anything in reporting services that might
help accomplish this ? Most of the instances are 2k, but we also have
some 2k5.
Best Regards
SGB

I think you should look at MOM, Microsoft Operations Manager.
