Database Monitoring and Maintenance Architecture

The Database Monitoring and Maintenance Snap-in uses a Plug-in architecture to provide access to the various features. Users are expected to enable and disable the Plug-ins they want to use in the Database Monitoring and Maintenance Snap-in. Plug-ins have a direct correlation to the tabs that are displayed for each database attached to the Snap-in. When a Plug-in is enabled, a corresponding tab is displayed when a database is selected

For information on selecting Plug-ins, refer to “Specifying Plug-ins” on page 81.
