Information collected by SQL PI Change Tracking feature -
Description
What information is collected by Change Tracking, when enabling SQL PI extension?
-
Cause
Enabling SQL PI extension in Foglight for SQL Server allows tracking OS and Database changes.
Change tracking collections run at different frequencies, depending on the change tracking category. For example by default, account changes are checked every 24 hours, while database objects are checked once every hour. This means that if a users makes any change to a user account, it would not be visible on the data on PI dashboard until up to 24 hours later. These durations are controlled by hidden agent status property settings and can be change using a groovy script in the Foglight Script console.
- Accounts once a day
- Database Configuration every hour
- Database Objects every hour
- Master Configuration every hour
