I was trialling Confio’s IgniteFree software on a development box and wanted to see what exactly gets created when you register an instance for monitoring. Confio states that their installs are “Agentless”, which is true.
I asked Thomas LaRock (blog | twitter) if IgniteFree creates any objects on the server. Answer:
short answer: #ignite does not require creating objects on the monitored instance. –@SQLRockstar (emphasis mine)
What I did discover though, objects do get created on the monitored server.
So what gets created?
USE [master] GO /****** Object: User [DOMAIN\user] Script Date: 01/21/2011 13:15:11 ******/ CREATE USER [DOMAIN\user] FOR LOGIN [DOMAIN\user] WITH DEFAULT_SCHEMA=[null] GO /****** Object: Schema [DOMAIN\user] Script Date: 01/21/2011 13:15:10 ******/ CREATE SCHEMA [DOMAIN\user] AUTHORIZATION [DOMAIN\user] GO /****** Object: Table [DOMAIN\user].[ignite_temp] Script Date: 01/21/2011 13:15:11 ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO SET ANSI_PADDING ON GO CREATE TABLE [DOMAIN\user].[ignite_temp]( [index_val] [tinyint] NULL, [name] [varchar](50) NULL, [internal_value] [int] NULL, [char_value] [varchar](255) NULL ) ON [PRIMARY] GO SET ANSI_PADDING OFF GO GRANT SELECT ON fn_get_sql to [DOMAIN\user] GO GRANT VIEW SERVER STATE to [BUILTIN\Administrators] GO
