Change schedule for fragmented indexes check for single SQL Server instance?

SQL Monitor 9.2.0.23782

I rebuild indexes on one of our SQL Server instances on Wednesday nights.  I'd like the SQL Monitor fragmented index check to occur after that - for that server only.  I have seen:

https://forum.red-gate.com/discussion/83144/is-it-possible-to-change-the-time-when-the-fragmented-indexes-check-is-run

I did not find this config file on the SQl Monitor server.  I found a similarly named config file, though, but it did not have a <schedule> element.

This is not a big deal since I just set the alter to be "low" instead of medium.  Plus, I know that I am Ola Hallengrenning (yes, I verbified Hallengren) all my DBs, so I could probably just turn this alert off.  However, it would still be nice to be able to config the alert schedule.

    You can't change it down to a single instance level, but as per that thread you posted it can be done globally to change the time the sampler runs.

    Run C:\Program Files\Red Gate\SQL Monitor\BaseMonitor\ConfigurationFileEditor.exe as an administrator, and look for %ProgramData%\Red Gate\SQL Monitor, which might be hidden by default?

    Thanks, @Russell D.  Unfortunately, we run index re-orgs and rebuilds on different nights for different servers (same as when full backups run).  If I move it for one server, the next one will probably bubble up.  It would be nice if we could change this setting at a per-instance grain.

    Oddly, when I go to the Redgate User Voice page, there is no category for SQL Monitor.

    Not sure why that is, I'll pass that on to the webteam. Here it is: https://sqlmonitor.uservoice.com/forums/91743-suggestions.
