I know that this sentence tells me that ‘MyDatabase’ database is online:
select databasepropertyex('MyDatabase', 'Status')
What if I need to check a database from another server? Suppose that I already have a link server, the call should be like this:
select databasepropertyex('[192.168.111.33].MyOtherDatabase', 'Status')
but it doesn’t work, anyone knows how to check this?
Thank you.
Might have to run as a pass through query, e.g.
(assuming your already set up linked server is called [192.168.111.33], as implied above – seems like a dubious naming convention to use IPs?)
