Question about SQL Icon in system tray 1

[Snaggs]

I noticed every once in a while that a red wiggily line appears under the SQL Server Icon in the system tray. What kind of significance does this have or what does it mean? This is the full version of SQL Server 2000.

Thanks, Snaggs

No, there is nothing wrong with your server. That red squiggle is indicating that Enterprise Manager has established a connection to your SQL Server.

You will also see a similar line over the SQL Server Service Manager icon in your taskbar. This line appears when SQL Server Service Manager polls for the server status, and immediately disappears.

Thanks
