Author Little SQL icon gone in SQL Server 2005??

Gurus,

Just installed SQL Server 2005 for the first time. Now, whenever I have
installed SQL Server 2000 in the past, I am used to seeing a little gray
server icon in the System tray which has either a green arrow on it if SQL
services are running or a red square on it if SQL services are stopped. I
no longer see this icon did Microsoft take it away?

Yes. You can download a 3:rd party from sqldbatips.com.

I can't believe Microsoft takes away stuff in newer software versions.

The functionality is included in SQL Server Configuration Manager. You also find it in SQL Server
Management Studio.

But, I agree that Service Manager is sometimes nice to have, which is why I use the one from
sqldbatips.com.
