SQL Server DBA Morning Health Checks

'Introduction: As a Microsoft Premier Field Engineer, I get to work with amazing colleagues who create incredible customer solutions. Patrick Keisler ( blog | |  ) is a long time SQL Server professional, who also works as a PFE supporting customers throughout Europe. He recently created a very handy "SQL Server Morning Health Check" solution on short notice for one of his customers. The solution is very helpful and can be added easily to your morning routine as a DBA to monitor your SQL Server environment. Patrick, thanks for sharing!
