Has anyone written routines to analyze sysjobhistory? I'm looking for a tool/routine to analyze jobs for failures, trends (such as constantly increasing run times) and other information. It's not as straighforward as I had originally hoped it would be.
I am specifically prohibited from using any 3rd-party tools (too expensive per mgmt).
I would be grateful for any input/insight.

hmscottIts advised not to query system tables directly when system supplied stored procedures are availble, have you looked into SP_HELP_JOBHISTRY and other corresponding SPs. Refer to books online for more information.|||Satya,
Yes, I had looked at that SP. The basic issue I had with it was that the Date and time stamps are configured as INTs and are not combined into an integrated date/time field.
Your reminder is a good one, however; I am nearly finished with working on a centralized repository for job execution history. I will look again and try to avoid querying the system tables directly.
Regards,
hmscott
