About Release 2.5 With MSSQL Metrics in Windows

Today I installed the new release 2.5 and next update some MSSQL metrics are empty in Windows Server


Hello @Docarly_Romero ,

Some user-requested metrics weren’t being properly collected with our previous default data source. As a result, we’re completely reworking this collector.

To ensure these metrics are now collected correctly, you’ll need to add configuration to your netdata.conf file, as outlined in our documentation.

Please let us know if you have any questions or need assistance with the configuration.

Best regards,

Hi @Thiago_Marques_0
After we followed the suggested configuration in documentation, the database metrics don’t show yet.

Can you help us?

Hello @Docarly_Romero ,

I suspect that a special character in your password might not have been recognized by Netdata when reading the configuration file, or there may be a setting that needs to be enabled on the MSSQL server.

To troubleshoot this, let’s proceed step by step. Could you please confirm whether there was a successful connection to the MSSQL server by checking your log file?
Path: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\<VERSION>\MSSQL\Log\ERRORLOG

Looking forward to your findings.

Hello @Thiago_Marques_0

  1. The password hasn’t any special character and
  2. In the log file there aren’t errors registered

PD: We followed all the steps in the documentation.
