Microsoft SQL Server on Linux SQL Server on Linux is currently available as a public preview and is not recommended for production use. Database Visibility works well with this preview release, but monitoring results may vary until a stable version of SQL Server on Linux is available.

Warning: If you enable hardware monitoring for MySQL and PostgreSQL RDS databases, then to fetch vCPU, use mapping of model vs vCPU from Amazon RDS Instance Types. The fetched vCPU is used for IBL licensing model.

Supported Operating Systems

Operating System Version
Windows 64-bit
Note: From 20.5 release, 32-bit is unsupported.
Linux 32-bit and 64-bit
Solaris All versions
AIX >= 6.1
Amazon RDS All versions

To avoid metric value errors, use a 64-bit JRE with the 64-bit operating system.

Note: If you use a third-party application along with Database Visibility to monitor Sybase, the data displayed in the controller may not display correctly. For accurate metrics, do not use both a third-party application and Database Visibility to monitor Sybase.
