This is introduction to the new feature of SQL2008 - Central Management Servers. A great way to manage hundreds of SQL Servers by combining them in groups.

Schooled and worked as a .NET developer / DBA in the USA, currently working as a DBA in the Nordic countries at sqlservice.se.

PBM and CMS is just two great reasons alone to move to SQL 2008 and makes your daily admin lives muvh easier....

Thank you all for the feedback! My goal in this short video is not to give full step-by-step tutorial on how to use CMS, but to encourage DBAs to use this great feature of SQL Server 2008.
