Oy. Or go pop popcorn to watch the explosion. The customizations I think are rational tend to be meta-schema: outside of it. For example, I've already done a bunch of tinkering with Federated DB configurations. I've been building a meta-DB which holds references to all the tables in my TSM server DBs. Then some sort of virtual tables which union the contents of, say, all the SESSION tables. Add a column to the virtual tables to denote the source server, and all of a sudden you can do cross-instance monitoring and math which was impossible before. - Allen S.
