A few days ago I was talking to my friend Roman Bondar about how handy is to use the SQL Server Central Management Server. He told me that it is indeed very handy, that one of his favorite features was the fact that you could access the SQL Server Configuration Manager of any registered Server. I have worked with the Central Management Server for some time, but I was not aware of it, so I asked him how it can be done and he explained to me. I find it really helpful and that is why I decide to write a post about it, so it can be useful for anyone who does not know about it. In order to access the SQL Server Configuration Manager of any registered Server, you will need to right click on the Server name on the registered Server tab and select “SQL Server Configuration Manager…”. That is it, very simple and very useful 😉

I was born in Barranquilla, Colombia in 1975. When I was 17 I moved to Curacao where I lived 10 years and then move to The Hague, The Netherlands. I speak 4 languages (Dutch, English, Papiamento and Spanish). I'm a Systems Engineer graduated from The Hague University (http://www.thehagueuniversity.com/). I have been working in IT for over 15 years. Since November 2014 I started www.cenlinea.com a webportal were the focus is to make learning more fun. At Cenlinea we are currently promoting PLAYDIOM a new methodology to learn English. While currently working part-time time at Cenlinea, I am also working as Senior Princiapal Consultant at www.ccgroep.com which helps me to keep up to date with Microsoft SQL Server, which I consider to be one of my favorite things in life as it has changed my life in many ways.

Thanks for pointing it out. I’ve been using a CMS for ages and I never noticed the Configuration Manager menu item!
Thank you for your comment!
