Hi,

One of the nice features of SQL2008 is the ability to give a color to the
connection. We have setup an SQL2008 Central management server to connection
to our mostly SQL2005 and SQL2000 servers. We set the connection colors so
we could have a simple way of seeing if we were connection to say a
production server. After saving this information after logging off and then
logging back on the color info has disappeared.

Does this only work for SQL2008 servers or is it a known bug?

Thanks

Chris

My connections to a particular 2005 server in our data center remain green.
I have been running SSMS 2008 since before RTM, and I can assure you I have
logged off many times in that span. :-)

Aaron,

Where is the settings saved on the server after you make changes to the
Central Management Server registered servers settings? Maybe we have a
problem with saving though if we add any new servers to our structure they
are still there after a logoff/logon.

Thanks

Chris

I am not sure where it is stored, though I expect it is in the *local*
binary file (not on the server), along with things like the recent "connect
to" server list (which is not exposed to us). I blogged about that specific
thing here : http://is.gd/43umS and there is a Connect item for it :
