High level DB monitoring without DB agent

[antonyahappa.Santhanamarian]

Hi,

I dont have DB agent in my environment. However DB is detected in backend call. I want to set high level DB monitoring like DB availability. Is it possible? If yes, what would be the metric I need to use.

Thanks

Are you asking if you can monitor a database without buying a database monitoring agent?  If so it may be possible using one of the extensions, assuming you have a machine agent on the database server. You can check here if they have one already for the type of db you use: https://www.appdynamics.com/community/exchange/
