The Services Status panel includes panes that allow carrying out the following tasks:
The SQL Agent Jobs panel lists all of the currently defined SQL Agent jobs, highlighting their current status (running, succeeded, or failed). This panel also allows viewing the execution messages from the last run of each job.
The SQL Agent Jobs table lists all SQL Server Agent Jobs defined in this server. This table highlights the current status of each job (running, succeeded, or failed). This data is updated on demand.
The job state depends on the last run outcome. For example: if the current status is Completed, but the last run outcome is
Fail, the job is indicated by a red circle as a failed job.
The Job Messages table displays the execution messages for each step in the current job. The data in the table is refreshed on demand. Historical data is not stored in a repository.
The SQL Agent Jobs History chart displays the status of jobs over time, thereby providing the exact information about when a job ran and when it succeeded or failed. The possible statuses are as follows:
When a job executes, Foglight for SQL Server adds it to this chart (Running), identifying the time it started.
When the job finishes, Foglight for SQL Server checks the completion status (Success or Failed) and changes the color of the job accordingly, to indicate when exactly a job started and ended.
The SQL Agent Alerts panel lists all currently defined SQL Server Agent Alerts, highlighting the alert type and when it last occurred.
The SQL Agent Alerts table lists all SQL Server Agent alerts defined in this SQL Server instance.
The Alert Occurrences chart shows when recent SQL agent alerts have occurred, and how many have occurred during the selected time range. The legend on the right indicates the types of alerts currently displayed in the chart.
The DTC panel provides additional data on SQL Server transactions.
If the server to which Foglight for SQL Server is currently connected has more than one instance running, this panel provides data regarding all instances of SQL Server on the current computer, not only the instance currently under analysis.
