Hi Can anyone suggest any freeware tools to do benchmarking, monitoring and load test performance of SQL server 2000 ? Thx In Advance, Sat[?]
At one time, Quest has a freeware tool, but I am not sure if it does everything you want. Check out their website to see if it is still available. ----------------------------- Brad M. McGehee, SQL Server MVP
Why not take of PERFMON and PROFILER in this case which are 'free' with SQL installation [<img src='/community/emoticons/emotion-5.gif' alt='' />], rather than depending upon the 3rd party for initial assesment.<br /><br /><hr noshade size="1"><b>Satya SKJ</b><br />Microsoft SQL Server MVP<br />Contributing Editor & Forums Moderator<br /<a target="_blank" href=http://www.SQL-Server-Performance.Com>http://www.SQL-Server-Performance.Com</a><br /><center><font color="teal"><font size="1">This posting is provided AS IS with no rights for the sake of <i>knowledge sharing.</i></font id="size1"></font id="teal"></center>
