DB Agent - Monitoring all instances Vs Specific DB instances

When we configure DB Agent to monitor an SQL Server, where / How we can filer only those specific instances which we are interested in monitoring ? 

I guess, OOTB we will monitor all the instances in the server, right ?

Hi there,

 

I think what you're looking to do is create a database collection -- is that correct? https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO42/Configure+Database+Collectors

That is correct, OOTB we will monitor all the instances in the server. Currently, there is no filter option for specifying the SQL Server instances to monitor.

There are some config for monitor only specific instances of the same database?

Please disregard my previous comment. You can use a custom jdbc string to monitor any specific MSSQL Server instance.

jdbc:sqlserver://[serverName[\instanceName][:portNumber]]
