Troubleshooting

This section provides a list of references which address the most commonly faced issues relating to remote connectivity, allowing for easy troubleshooting using the vendor's information knowledge base:

•
To verify TCP/IP connectivity for SQL statement collections, Management Studio (SSMS) cannot be used as other protocols may be leveraged. Instead, verify connectivity using a UDL as detailed here: https://support.microsoft.com/kb/308075/.
•
To verify the WMI connectivity using a Microsoft Windows built-in utility, see https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc180684.aspx.
•
To troubleshoot WMI access permissions, see http://blogs.technet.com/b/askperf/archive/2007/08/14/wmi-troubleshooting-permissions.aspx.

Any Management Server installation requires a license that grants access to server-specific parts of the browser interface and the features associated with them. Foglight cartridges are also license-protected. While some cartridges are covered by the base Foglight license (such as Foglight Agent Manager cartridges and the Foglight for Infrastructure), others may require an additional license.

Foglight for DB2 LUW is covered by the base Foglight license that allows cartridges to be installed. The SQL Performance Investigator extension requires a dedicated license.
