| Can SQL server error log be adjusted to show specific messages? Basically what are the default type of messages that SQL server error log would include? |

| Check out the WITH LOG option of the RAISERROR statement:RAISERROR('Something *reaally* funky happened',16,1) WITH LOGI was unable to find any info on which specific events that goes to the error log, all I could find was this -> http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms191202.aspx. I do however know that db engine restarts are logged, database backups, result of dbcc commands, deadlocks, start/stop of traces (profiler), various errors of course...- LumbagoMy blog (yes, I have a blog now! just not that much content yet) -> www.thefirstsql.com |

| Deadlocks aren't logged by default. Only if a traceflag is enabled.All sev 20+ errors are logged. Database and log backups, though those can be turned off with a traceflag. Databases being openedTraceflags enabled/disabledSome DBCC commands (not all)Login success if set so in the server propertiesLogin failure if set so in the server properties--Gail ShawSQL Server MVP |
