Hi,

How can we create an alert on database agent availability  similar to App or Machine agent. I am unable to find similar metric for DB Agent.

Regards,

Mohit

Hi Ryan,

Actually we implemented monitoring via machine agent on same server along with some custom remediation built to make sure DB agent is always up and running.

Implementation of remediation part resolves my availability metric requirement.

Mohit

Hi @Mohit.Gupta,

Not sure what version your Controller is, but I did some digging around and found others talking about this Docs page. Please have a look and let me know if it helps.

Hi @Mohit.Gupta,

I wanted to follow up to see if you were able to get that Alert set up?
