**Note**: Version 2 queries are not backwards compatible with the old queries. Any dashboards or queries based on the old query format will not work with the new format. The version 2 queries only report raw metrics, no math has been done to calculate deltas. To graph this data you must calculate deltas in your dashboarding software.
- *Server properties*: Number of databases in all possible states (online, offline, suspect, etc.), cpu count, physical memory, SQL Server service uptime, and SQL Server version. In the case of Azure SQL relevant properties such as Tier, #Vcores, Memory etc.
- *Wait stats*: Wait time in ms, number of waiting tasks, resource wait time, signal wait time, max wait time in ms, wait type, and wait category. The waits are categorized using the same categories used in Query Store.
- *Schedulers* - This captures `sys.dm_os_schedulers`.
- *SqlRequests* - This captures a snapshot of `sys.dm_exec_requests` and `sys.dm_exec_sessions` that gives you running requests as well as wait types and
- *VolumeSpace* - uses `sys.dm_os_volume_stats` to get total, used and occupied space on every disk that contains a data or log file. (Note that even if enabled it won't get any data from Azure SQL Database or SQL Managed Instance). It is pointless to run this with high frequency (ie: every 10s), but it won't cause any problem.
- *Cpu* - uses the buffer ring (`sys.dm_os_ring_buffers`) to get CPU data, the table is updated once per minute. (Note that even if enabled it won't get any data from Azure SQL Database or SQL Managed Instance).
- Resource governance stats from `sys.dm_instance_resource_governance`
- *Azure SQL Database* in addition to other stats
- Stats from `sys.dm_db_wait_stats`
- Resource governance stats from `sys.dm_user_db_resource_governance`
- Stats from `sys.dm_db_resource_stats`
#### database_type = "AzureSQLDB
These are metrics for Azure SQL Database (single database) and are very similar to version 2 but split out for maintenance reasons, better ability to test,differences in DMVs:
- AzureSQLDBDatabaseIO: IO stats from `sys.dm_io_virtual_file_stats` including resource governance time, RBPEX, IO for Hyperscale.
- AzureSQLDBMemoryClerks: Memory clerk breakdown from `sys.dm_os_memory_clerks`.
= AzureSQLDBResourceGovernance: Relevant properties indicatign resource limits from `sys.dm_user_db_resource_governance`
- AzureSQLDBPerformanceCounters: A select list of performance counters from `sys.dm_os_performance_counters` including cloud specific counters for SQL Hyperscale.
- AzureSQLDBWaitstats: Wait time in ms from `sys.dm_db_wait_stats`, number of waiting tasks, resource wait time, signal wait time, max wait time in ms, wait type, and wait category. The waits are categorized using the same categories used in Query Store. These waits are collected only as of the end of the a statement. and for a specific database only.
- *AzureSQLOsWaitstats*: Wait time in ms from `sys.dm_os_wait_stats`, number of waiting tasks, resource wait time, signal wait time, max wait time in ms, wait type, and wait category. The waits are categorized using the same categories used in Query Store. These waits are collected as they occur and instance wide
- *AzureSQLDBRequests: Requests which are blocked or have a wait type from `sys.dm_exec_sessions` and `sys.dm_exec_requests`
- *AzureSQLDBSchedulers* - This captures `sys.dm_os_schedulers` snapshots.
#### database_type = "AzureSQLManagedInstance
These are metrics for Azure SQL Managed instance, are very similar to version 2 but split out for maintenance reasons, better ability to test, differences in DMVs:
- AzureSQLMIDatabaseIO: IO stats from `sys.dm_io_virtual_file_stats` including resource governance time, RBPEX, IO for Hyperscale.
- AzureSQLMIMemoryClerks: Memory clerk breakdown from `sys.dm_os_memory_clerks`.
- AzureSQLMIResourceGovernance: Relevant properties indicatign resource limits from `sys.dm_instance_resource_governance`
- AzureSQLMIPerformanceCounters: A select list of performance counters from `sys.dm_os_performance_counters` including cloud specific counters for SQL Hyperscale.
- AzureSQLMIOsWaitstats: Wait time in ms from `sys.dm_os_wait_stats`, number of waiting tasks, resource wait time, signal wait time, max wait time in ms, wait type, and wait category. The waits are categorized using the same categories used in Query Store. These waits are collected as they occur and instance wide
- AzureSQLMIRequests: Requests which are blocked or have a wait type from `sys.dm_exec_sessions` and `sys.dm_exec_requests`
- AzureSQLMISchedulers - This captures `sys.dm_os_schedulers` snapshots.
#### database_type = "SQLServer
- SQLServerDatabaseIO: IO stats from `sys.dm_io_virtual_file_stats`
- SQLServerMemoryClerks: Memory clerk breakdown from `sys.dm_os_memory_clerks`, most clerks have been given a friendly name.
- SQLServerPerformanceCounters: A select list of performance counters from `sys.dm_os_performance_counters`. Some of the important metrics included:
- *Activity*: Transactions/sec/database, Batch requests/sec, blocked processes, + more
- *Availability Groups*: Bytes sent to replica, Bytes received from replica, Log bytes received, Log send queue, transaction delay, + more
- SQLServerProperties: Number of databases in all possible states (online, offline, suspect, etc.), cpu count, physical memory, SQL Server service uptime, and SQL Server version. In the case of Azure SQL relevant properties such as Tier, #Vcores, Memory etc.
- SQLServerWaitStatsCategorized: Wait time in ms, number of waiting tasks, resource wait time, signal wait time, max wait time in ms, wait type, and wait category. The waits are categorized using the same categories used in Query Store.
- SQLServerSchedulers - This captures `sys.dm_os_schedulers`.
- SQLServerRequests - This captures a snapshot of `sys.dm_exec_requests` and `sys.dm_exec_sessions` that gives you running requests as well as wait types and
blocking sessions.
- SQLServerVolumeSpace - uses `sys.dm_os_volume_stats` to get total, used and occupied space on every disk that contains a data or log file. (Note that even if enabled it won't get any data from Azure SQL Database or SQL Managed Instance). It is pointless to run this with high frequency (ie: every 10s), but it won't cause any problem.
- SQLServerCpu - uses the buffer ring (`sys.dm_os_ring_buffers`) to get CPU data, the table is updated once per minute. (Note that even if enabled it won't get any data from Azure SQL Database or SQL Managed Instance).
#### Output Measures
The guiding principal is that all data collected from the same primary DMV ends up in the same measure irrespective of database_type.
`sqlserver_database_io` - Used by AzureSQLDBDatabaseIO, AzureSQLMIDatabaseIO, SQLServerDatabaseIO, DatabaseIO given the data is from `sys.dm_io_virtual_file_stats`
`sqlserver_waitstats` - Used by WaitStatsCategorized,AzureSQLDBOsWaitstats,AzureSQLMIOsWaitstats
`sqlserver_server_properties` - Used by SQLServerProperties, AzureSQLDBServerProperties , AzureSQLMIServerProperties,ServerProperties
`sqlserver_memory_clerks` - Used by SQLServerMemoryClerks, AzureSQLDBMemoryClerks, AzureSQLMIMemoryClerks,MemoryClerk
`sqlserver_performance` - Used by SQLServerPerformanceCounters, AzureSQLDBPerformanceCounters, AzureSQLMIPerformanceCounters,PerformanceCounters
`sys.dm_os_schedulers` - Used by SQLServerSchedulers,AzureSQLDBServerSchedulers, AzureSQLMIServerSchedulers
The following Performance counter metrics can be used directly, with no delta calculations:
