SQLMate1.0 Beta 3

However i have configured logging of my SQL performance data, i missed a realtime performance dashboard.
Looking around the web i found a few products matching my needs. But the disadvantage was that they where too expensive and
and had a lot of extra stuff i really don't care about.
Therefore i decided to build something myself.

I called the result SQLMate and i'm using it for a while now and am pretty satisfied.
Therefore i decided to share it with you.

SQLMate is able to monitor the following counters: 

  • User connections
  • Buffer cache hit ratio
  • Page life expectancy
  • Deadlocks/sec
  • Batch requests/sec
  • Full scans/sec
  • Page splits/sec
  • Lock requests/sec
  • Detailed transactions/sec
  • Log file usage

 

You can download it for free, but i would appreciate if you send me your bug reports or suggestions for improvement.

Servicedep

This is a very straightforward tool to use.
You can change the dependencies of services in a graphical interface in a very easy way.

 And of course like the other tools it's free ...

Note: It's developed on Windows XP, on Windows 7 or Server 2008 it's can give unexpected results.

SVS Admin Enterprise Edition 2.1.1

SVS is the Symantec (previously Altiris) Software Virtualization Solution.
One of the disadvantages of the standard admin console is that you can not use it to manage remote machines.
That's where my version comes in.
You can do the most common administrative tasks but also export/import multiple SVS packages at once.
Another one is to configure alternate credentials, so non admin users can manage SVS machines.

The SVS Enterprise Admin  can enumerate his computerlist from multiple sources: 

  •  Altiris notification solution
  • The browselist
  • The SVS Discovery service (A service i wrote for people not having some sort of inventory tool)
Check out this tool yourself ...

Update: this software applies to SVS 2.1
These days Symantec adopted the technology and named it Symantec Workspace Virtualization Admin.
Symantec changed  the used WMI classes and therefore it's not working on the Symantec product.
I stopped further development.
