#SQLServer #Dbachecks #DBAVUG #Automation

In a cliënt call this morning. Client asks about sql jobs because monitoring is hard. Introduced them to #dbatools #dbachecks. I saw a happy face. Thank you @robsewell.com for the amazing work on the checks and the people on all the tools (too many to tag)

I reconfigured the email system on my SQL Servers to support a forthcoming migration. The next day I had to fix my #dbachecks configuration because I forgot that it checks SQL Database Mail Profile names.

Tested on pwsh on Windows and Linux and on 5.1 and released to the PowerShell Gallery as a preview #dbachecks

All the props to @TracyBoggiano the CIS #dbachecks project is complete
