As promised in this previous post, Sean McCown has uncovered a DBA-specific feature within Microsoft's forthcoming database, code-named Katmai, and to be officially known as SQL Server 2008.
"Katmai has this cool feature where you can run code against a group of servers," he explains in this Database underground entry. "This is a fabulous feature and it looks like MS got a couple things right here.”
Naturally, there are aspects to this function that McCown points out "didn’t get done as well as I'd like." Not complaints, per se, just touches that would have made it perfect, such as the ability to do the same thing at the database level on an individual box.
McCown's piece includes a Camtasia demonstration of how it all works.
