I love your blog and it has been a great resource for me in my first SQL Server DBA position (I was a developer and then a systems/DB2 DBA admin before this). I just wanted to let you know, in case you wanted to include an update in your post, that Microsoft's Official Course for SQL Server 2008 R2 walked us through a lab that adds the CMS to a server group. This contradicts your second drawback, which is great because I don't want to install another instance just to use CMS :-) Hi Brent!

You'll need to write PowerShell scripts to leverage the CMS for things like that. You can’t do that through a job. You’ll need to write PowerShell scripts to leverage the CMS for things like that.

I have just setup my CMS, and I know that I can run a search of one query through all of the servers. However, now I want to create a job that runs that same search query through the servers, every morning. I can create a job like usual, but it won’t run it through the CMS, how can I get that job to run the search query through all the servers? Does anybody have answer to Jon’s question?
