Strategic Alert and Security Configuration
Today I ran into something on a client-server that unfortunately I see too often. The DBA goes through the trouble of configuring and setting up alerts/operators but doesn’t really understand what the options in the configurations mean. So, unfortunately, that means they take the CYA (cover your ass) approach and they check all of them. Now, not only have I seen this with alerts but also with things like security configurations as well. My advice is to always take a second and research what each option is before you check the little boxes, especially when it comes to security. Always follow the rule of less is more.
