I’m starting to put a listing of tools together:
SharePoint Portal Server Support Report Tool (SPSReport)
This is a information gathering tool that collects logs and reports that we need to troubleshoot the issue. It will create a cab file at following location: c:windowsspsreportsportalrptcab

Microsoft Best Practices Analyzer for Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 and the 2007 Microsoft Office System
The Microsoft Best Practices Analyzer for Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 and the 2007 Microsoft Office System Best Practices Analyzer programmatically collects settings and values from data repositories such as MS SQL, registry, metabase and performance monitor. Once collected, a set of comprehensive ‘best practice’ rules are applied to the topology.
Administrators running this tool will get a detailed report listing the recommendations that can be made to the environment to achieve greater performance, scalability and uptime.
