43. Now that SQL server 2017, Its updates and
SQL Server Management Studio has been
installed successfully. We should implement
the Database Backup jobs, Database index
optimization, Database integrity checks etc.
through SQL server Agent jobs. We use
Ola Hallengren script. Follow this link to go
to the website where this Maintenance
Solution is available.

45. This is the best starting point for building your own maintenance plan is the comprehensive and free and Open source script from Ola Hallengren. This is the script we use at Keck Medicine of USC, of course we tailor the script to our needs by modifying it a little and adding a lot of additional stuff. I will use his Script (Customized by USC) here to set up all the Database maintenance procedures.

46. list of additional stuff we add to the Ola Hallengran Script.
Include the server to our Central Management Server
Resize System Databases
Resize TempDB
Set Up Sql Server Database Mail
Set up SQL Server Agent Service Restart Alert
Create Job Failure Report
Script The SQL server Logins and Database users
