MOM 2005 and NetIQ's AppManager work very well :)

Hi

Monitoring Software like Tivoli, HP Openview etc.

Else, write an application that plugs into WMI and work it from there.

One simple way is to have your SQL server run a startup stored procedure
that emails a message like "SQL Cluster Server Fubar has just restarted at
hh:mm". You can then ignore or supress the message for planned maintenance
windows.

Another way to accomplish this would be to have a generic script/application
cluster resource in your cluster groups that launch a file that will trigger
the notification. You can review the following KB article for an example:

In addition to a startup procedure, you could also create a SQLAgent startup
job that does the same thing. Keep in mind, however, that startup
procedures will have a different startup sequence than SQLAgent startup
jobs: the later will not initiate until the database recovery process is
complete; startup procedures are launched earlier in the boot-up sequence.

Sincerely,

Anthony Thomas
