List of 3rd Party Enterprise monitoring tools for SQL

I am trying to compile a list of 3rd part monitoring applications for SQL.
We have about 30 SQL servers that we need to do more in-depth enterprise
monitoring of all aspects of each system. I just need to compile a short
list of possible contenders so any recommendations would be appreciated.
e.g.
HP Open View, MOM, Prognosis, etc....One tool you should definitely look at is SQL Sentry. www.sqlsentry.net

Linux SQL Server Client

Hi,

Does Microsoft provide SQL Server Client for Linux, specifically SLES 9 64 bit? If none from Microsoft, any suggestion for third party package of SQL Server Client for SLES9 64bit? Thanks

Weidong

Microsoft provides a JDBC driver that will allow you to connect from a variety of operating systems - you can find the home page at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/data/aa937724.aspx.

Note that from the system requirements page at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms378422.aspx, it's stated that Sun Solaris, Red Hat Linux and Microsoft Windows 2000 or later are the officially supported operating systems.
