All, if I were to write an app that has one task, determine whether or
not an SQL Instance is running, what would be the easist method for
this? I personally think that a query against the masterdb would do
the trick. I would appreciate any feedback you can provide.

If you want to know if the SQL Server service is running, then you can use
any tool which can tell you the state of a Windows service - WMI is one way,
or the SQLDMO SQLServer2 object has a Status property.

Thank You Simon. I had a hunch that SQLDMO was the way to go.

( I am aware of the "memoryLimit" attribute in the "processModel"
element in the Web.config but that only specifies the maximum allowed
memory size, as a percentage of total system memory, and I don't want

My Title is a suggested solution rather than the actual question. Let me explain. I have a C# ASP.NET 2.0 website that I wrote to run deployments to my many environments. It uses PSExec to kick off deployment executables on different machines. It works great until you try to throw it at a cluster because PSExec isn't cluster aware. PSExec tries to kick off on the cluster, but the cluster isn't an actual machine, and thus, psexec fails...
