Today there was a question submitted in dba.stackexchange.com with the heading “Suppressing non-ANSI warnings in SQLCMD script”. Details here. In summary, this happens when you use a script to create a SQL Agent job and one of the job steps has conditions (under advanced properties) to go to certain steps in case of success or […]
There was a tweet that came last night from Lohit about “need guidance on how to enable a set of jobs on secondary AG as soon as failover happens from primary to secondary AG”. I have implemented a solution for most (I am using “most” literally because I have not done this for all jobs) of […]
DBA team that I worked with manage 170+ SQL Servers. We do not enable notification on any SQL Agent job. We centrally monitor all jobs and send a notification based on the tier (Business-critical).

@timweigel @SqlWorldWide @sqlpass The game changer that I found for SQL Saturday Iowa 2020 was to fully embrace the ... online event and stop thinking of it as an "in person" event presented online. We found innovative ways around many of the online event challenges.
