Hi,

Does anyone currently monitor Microsoft SQL Server 2000 using Zabbix?

If so, could you post a few of the items you use or local checks if thats what the agent needs?

Thanks in advance!

John

here ya go:

perf_counter[\SQLServer:Buffer Manager()\Database pages]
perf_counter[\SQLServer:Buffer Manager()\Free pages]
perf_counter[\SQLServer:_Databases(DATABASENAME)\Data File(s) Size (KB)]
perf_counter[\SQLServer:_Databases(DATABASENAME)\Log File(s) Size (KB)]
perf_counter[\SQLServer:General Statistics()\User Connections]
perf_counter[\SQLServer:Memory Manager()\Total Server Memory (KB)]

Remove the _ (underscore) before Database. Needed to do this otherwise you would see :D.


no further explanation needed....or do you?

Hmm, Zabbix doesn't seem to like this entry:

perf_counter[\SQLServer:Memory Manager()\Total Server Memory (KB)]

When I add this as an item, Zabbix only ever inserts this into the database:

perf_counter[\SQLServer:Memory Manager()\Total Server Memory (KB

Any ideas why this might be?

Thanks!

John

This is caused by the database design.
To solve this problem you need to increase the "Key" field in the "Items" table from "Varchar(64)" to "Varchar(128)".
