Microsoft System Center Management Pack (Community Technology Preview) for Microsoft Azure SQL Database – Managed Instance

The Management Pack (CTP) for Microsoft Azure SQL Database – Managed Instance enables you to monitor the availability and performance of your Managed Instances.

Note:  This Management Pack is neither part of Microsoft System Center Management Pack for Microsoft Azure nor Microsoft System Center Management Pack for Microsoft Azure SQL Database. This management pack provides monitoring, which is quite similar to monitoring of on-premises SQL Server 2017 provided by the Microsoft System Center Management Pack for SQL Server 2017+.

Note:  This CTP release covers only a subset of monitors and rules. It does not offer low-privilege monitoring configuration. We will work towards the full functionality as we release new CTPs.
