Hi,
I have written an application that acts as a reporting/monitoring tool across about 25 servers. It works very well and I don't have a question about how to programme with DMO.
My question is where are the objects? Does that make sense?
For example dmo returns a code to signify the status of the agent service - but where does it get this code from. It can't be querying a table (I don't think) so where are the objects that it queries.
Sorry to be showing such a lack of understanding.
Hope you can help ...

The query could be the Windows system service, it doesn't have to be inside SQL. The DOM wrapper is around low level code, not necessarily TSQL/TDS stream code. you can run profiler to see if it is querying something in SQL Server, but some of them do not.

SQL-DMO is just a wrapper. I've run SQL Profiler against my own SQL-DMO code as well as when I perform task via Enterprise Manager and found that it's just querying system tables directly or executing some of the sp_MS% stored procedures. I suggest you fire up Profiler and trace your application to determine what it's doing behind the scenes.
