Hi @Alex B, I took a look at our config for disk space alert. Screen cap for the default "all servers" is shown. This is inherited by the few servers we have under SQL Monitor -- except for one which is at 10 GB instead of 3 GB. In any event, neither of the rules is sufficient to trigger the alerts. In other words, these should not be firing since as the screen cap I posted previously shows, there is plenty of disk space. Moreover, the alerts fire as I mentioned during reboots. This looks like a bug to me; it's like the WMI is requesting info from a server during a time when it is rebooting and treating the non-response as a zero or something. Wild guess on my part. [image] I'll take a look at the maintenance window. Thanks for pointing this out! / comments

This happened again. Providing screen caps. [image] Corresponding PagerDuty alert. FWIW, we also have email and Teams as a notification and get messages there. No server was being rebooted. By the time it was checked by the on-duty SRE (a minute later), it was evident that this was another hiccup. [image] / comments

I can also send these when we do our next patching session. The disk space errors flow freely as servers are rebooting for patches. On the topic of patching -- the maintenance feature in SQL Monitor does not appear to support relative dates. Or I am missing something. For example, Microsoft has Patch Tuesday. This is traditionally the second Tuesday of each month. Our team applies patches to SQL Servers not on the following day, but about a week later. I don't see a way to set up a relative date. I've used Powershell in the past to do certain tasks where a check was made for an upcoming date and it works like a charm. Is there any documentation you can point me to? I'd like to be able to calculate a relative date in SQL Monitor for a maintenance window w/o having to set it manually each time. TIA! / comments

Why do false positive high alerts get raised?
After posting a separate question and checking with my BU, I discovered we do have upgraded licenses available for 11.xAfter installing the latest 11.x and messing with the monitored servers, two o...
