sql service manager icon 1

[WeeBurt]

when all is well the icon is in the tray with a green triangle, what does it mean when a red squiggly line running thru it appears???

Nothing to worry about - this just when Enterprise Manager or SQL Service Manager routinely polls the SQL Server to determine whether it (as well as SQL Server Agent, MSDTC, and Full-Text Search) is still running.

thanks andy. I am new at managing this server, so you may see more of me and my simple questions, I am sure as time goes by, I will have even more intense questions that will challenge one and all.

thanks again.
