Microsoft SQL

Microsoft SQL Server is a relational database management system developed by Microsoft. As a database server, it is a software product with the primary function of storing and retrieving data as requested by other software applications—which may run either on the same computer or on another computer across a network.

This template is for Zabbix version: 7.0
Also available for: 6.4 6.0

MSSQL by Zabbix agent 2

Overview

This template is designed for the effortless deployment of MSSQL monitoring by Zabbix via Zabbix agent 2 and doesn't require any external scripts.

Requirements

Zabbix version: 7.0 and higher.

Tested versions

This template has been tested on:

  • Microsoft SQL, version 2019, 2022

Configuration

Zabbix should be configured according to the instructions in the Templates out of the box section.

Setup

  1. Deploy Zabbix agent 2 with the MSSQL plugin. You can use this template starting with Zabbix versions 6.0.27 / 6.4.12. For more information, see MSSQL plugin documentation. Loadable plugin requires installation of a separate package or binary file or compilation from sources.

  2. Create an MSSQL user for monitoring. For example, "zbx_monitor".

View Server State and View Any Definition permissions should be granted to the user. Grant this user read permissions to the sysjobschedules, sysjobhistory, and sysjobs tables.

For example, using T-SQL commands:

GRANT SELECT ON OBJECT::msdb.dbo.sysjobs TO zbx_monitor;
GRANT SELECT ON OBJECT::msdb.dbo.sysjobservers TO zbx_monitor;
GRANT SELECT ON OBJECT::msdb.dbo.sysjobactivity TO zbx_monitor;
GRANT EXECUTE ON OBJECT::msdb.dbo.agent_datetime TO zbx_monitor;

For more information, see MSSQL documentation:

Create a database user

GRANT Server Permissions

Configure a User to Create and Manage SQL Server Agent Jobs

  1. Set the username and password in the host macros {$MSSQL.USER} and {$MSSQL.PASSWORD}.

  2. Set the connection string for the MSSQL instance in the {$MSSQL.URI} macro as a URI, such as <protocol://host:port>, or specify the named session - <sessionname>.

The Service's TCP port state item uses the {$MSSQL.HOST} and {$MSSQL.PORT} macros to check the availability of the MSSQL instance, change these if necessary. Keep in mind that if dynamic ports are used on the MSSQL server side, this check will not work correctly.

Note: You can use the context macros {$MSSQL.BACKUP_FULL.USED}, {$MSSQL.BACKUP_LOG.USED}, and {$MSSQL.BACKUP_DIFF.USED} to disable backup age triggers for a certain database. If set to a value other than "1", the trigger expression for the backup age will not fire.

Note: Since version 7.0.6, you can also connect to the MSSQL instance using its name. To do this, set the connection string in the {$MSSQL.URI} macro as <protocol://host/instance_name>.

Note that auto-parameterizations are also known as simple parameterizations in the newer versions of SQL Server. This counter does not include forced parameterizations.

Number of safe auto-parameterization attempts per second. Safe refers to a determination that a cached execution plan can be shared between different similar-looking Transact-SQL statements. SQL Server makes many auto-parameterization attempts, some of which turn out to be safe and others fail. Note that auto-parameterizations are also known as simple parameterizations in the newer versions of SQL Server. This does not include forced parameterizations.

MSSQL: Too frequently using pointers

Rows with VARCHAR columns can experience expansion when VARCHAR values are updated with a longer string. In the case where the row cannot fit in the existing page, the row migrates, and access to the row will traverse a pointer. This only happens on heaps (tables without clustered indexes). In cases where clustered indexes cannot be used, drop non-clustered indexes, build a clustered index to reorg pages and rows, drop the clustered index, then recreate non-clustered indexes.

Name Description Type Key and additional info
MSSQL Cluster '{#CLUSTER_NAME}': Quorum type

Type of quorum used by this WSFC cluster, one of:

0 = Node Majority. This quorum configuration can sustain failures of half the nodes (rounding up) minus one.

1 = Node and Disk Majority. If the disk witness remains on line, this quorum configuration can sustain failures of half the nodes (rounding up).

2 = Node and File Share Majority. This quorum configuration works in a similar way to Node and Disk Majority, but uses a file-share witness instead of a disk witness.

3 = No Majority: Disk Only. If the quorum disk is online, this quorum configuration can sustain failures of all nodes except one.

4 = Unknown Quorum. Unknown quorum for the cluster.

5 = Cloud Witness. Cluster utilizes Microsoft Azure for quorum arbitration. If the cloud witness is available, the cluster can sustain the failure of half the nodes (rounding up).
