Real World SQL Server Administration with Perl (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781590590973)

This book is about solving SQL Server administrative problems with Perl. Linchi has designed it to consist of a series of scenarios covering a wide range of SQL Server administrative topics. These are real world scenarios that you hear DBAs discussing on the SQL Server forums or newsgroups, and scenarios that DBAs run into in their day-to-day development or production environments. Readers will walk away from this book with two things: a DBA toolkit with well over 150 Perl scripts, and problem solving techniques you can apply to create even more tools for attacking other SQL Server administrative problems. Most of the sample problems are described and addressed in the context of SQL Server 7 or SQL Server 2000, but they are generally version independent. The next major release of SQL Server ("Yukon")may change some of the details, but will not invalidate the nature of the presented approaches or solutions. All the Perl scripts are completely open and can be easily adapted to work with any version of SQL Server.
