Hi Dan, hi Jessica, same thing here! Every database that has a database_name entry in msdb.dbo.backupset that differs from the original database name as seen in sys.databases, appears as doubled in SQL Monitor. The ones whose names come from msdb.dbo.backupset are showing no data for actual metrics and history. In my case all different written names in msdb.dbo.backupset derived from sql agent backup jobs (e.g. "backup database [abc]" instead of "backup database [AbC]"). This doesn't seem to be a brand new thing - we already ignored it (sorry for that) since several versions of SQL Monitor (actually on 9.02). My Question: How did you resolve that issue? Some additional info: => We observe those doubled database entries exactly since installing 8.0.19.16748 back in October! I used the following query to find the day of first appearace (CollectionDate) for the doubled entries: SELECT _name COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_Cp1_CS_AS as _name_1<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; , utils.TicksToDateTime(CollectionDate) AS Collection_Datum<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; , * <br>FROM [data].[Cluster_SqlServer_Database_Keys] <br>WHERE Parentid = 15 -- this belongs to that specific monitored server<br>ORDER BY _name_1 Could someone please provide us with a solution for that problem? 16 out of 38 databases on that server appear as additional ghost entries.
