# SQL Server plugin
|
|
|
|
This sqlserver plugin provides metrics for your SQL Server instance.
|
|
It currently works with SQL Server versions 2008+.
|
|
Recorded metrics are lightweight and use Dynamic Management Views supplied by SQL Server:
|
|
```
|
|
Performance counters : 1000+ metrics from sys.dm_os_performance_counters
|
|
Performance metrics : special performance and ratio metrics
|
|
Wait stats : wait tasks categorized from sys.dm_os_wait_stats
|
|
Memory clerk : memory breakdown from sys.dm_os_memory_clerks
|
|
Database size : databases size trend from sys.dm_io_virtual_file_stats
|
|
Database IO : databases I/O from sys.dm_io_virtual_file_stats
|
|
Database latency : databases latency from sys.dm_io_virtual_file_stats
|
|
Database properties : databases properties, state and recovery model, from sys.databases
|
|
OS Volume : available, used and total space from sys.dm_os_volume_stats
|
|
CPU : cpu usage from sys.dm_os_ring_buffers
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You must create a login on every instance you want to monitor, with following script:
|
|
```SQL
|
|
USE master;
|
|
GO
|
|
CREATE LOGIN [telegraf] WITH PASSWORD = N'mystrongpassword';
|
|
GO
|
|
GRANT VIEW SERVER STATE TO [telegraf];
|
|
GO
|
|
GRANT VIEW ANY DEFINITION TO [telegraf];
|
|
GO
|
|
```
