There's a couple SQL Server monitor scripts over on deadcat.net.  Maybe you
could modify them to your needs?

Hi,

I've adapter the bbsql-server script from deadcat.net so that it is working with the BBWin agent.

It checks if the scheduled tasks started successfully,
It checks for blocking locks and I added some statistics on "database last backup", the database transaction log Size (MB) and Usage (%)

I still have to implement some alerting on those statistics but the script works fine on MSSQL 2000 and up.
It works on both 32 and 64 bit architecture.

I will paste it on xymonton

Best regards
Bart Gillis

Ah, I should probably send this publicly...

There was an error when I ran this. Each server I've run this on claim
to have no jobs, so the file for CheckJobStats was never created.

The following code, around line 122, "fixes" it. You can see that it
only opens the file if it exists, then deletes immediately after
reading instead of after the variable assignment. It could be
simplified by always setting tmpStr to No Job History, then replace it
with f.ReadAll as needed.

There are a few other minor improvements that could be made (e.g.
change <td> to <th> in table head; maybe remove <br> from within
tables since it doesn't seem to serve any purpose).

Loop
if fso.FileExists(strFilePath & "\" & tempfilename) then
       Set f = fso.OpenTextFile(strFilePath & "\" & tempfilename ,1 )
               If Not f.AtEndOfLine Then
