Problem

I am searching for Database Health check articles specifically for a web application back-end server and SQL Server 2005/2008.

My current checklist includes:

  • Index Fragmentation



  • SQL Server logs



  • Mirroring Monitor



  • Backup completion



  • File growth



What else should I look for? Are there good articles specifically for a webapp DBA scenario?

(Note: I don't need to worry about many database users - there is only one user the application itself)

Solution

The two I've found most useful:

-
Brent Ozar's Blitz! Script

-
Glenn Berry's DMV Diagnostic queries

Posting these as an answer since you haven't received any other responses. Also, not sure how long this question will live; it may be viewed by some as a shopping list request that will eventually be obsolete.
