Items collected
| Name | Description | Type | Interval | Key and additional info |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MSSQL: Get Access Methods counters | The item gets server information about access methods. | DEPENDENT | - | mssql.access_methods.raw |
| MSSQL: Auto-param attempts per second | Number of auto-parameterization attempts per second. The total should be the sum of the failed, safe, and unsafe auto-parameterizations. Auto-parameterization occurs when an instance of SQL Server tries to parameterize a Transact-SQL request by replacing some literals with parameters so that reuse of the resulting cached execution plan across multiple similar-looking requests is possible. Note that auto-parameterizations are also known as simple parameterizations in the newer versions of SQL Server. This counter does not include forced parameterizations. | DEPENDENT | - | mssql.autoparam_attempts_sec.rate |
| MSSQL: Get availability groups | The item gets availability group states - name, primary and secondary health, synchronization health. | - | - | mssql.availability.group.get["{$MSSQL.URI}","{$MSSQL.USER}","{$MSSQL.PASSWORD}"] |

| MSSQL: Total average wait time | The average wait time, in milliseconds, for each lock request that had to wait. | CALCULATED | 0;m0-59s3 | mssql.average_wait_time |
| MSSQL: Total average wait time base | For internal use only. | DEPENDENT | - | mssql.average_wait_time_base |
| MSSQL: Total average wait time raw | Average amount of wait time (in milliseconds) for each lock request that resulted in a wait. Information for all locks. | DEPENDENT | - | mssql.average_wait_time_raw |
| MSSQL: Batch requests per second | Number of Transact-SQL command batches received per second. This statistic is affected by all constraints (such as I/O, number of users, cache size, complexity of requests, and so on). High batch requests mean good throughput. | DEPENDENT | - | mssql.batch_requests_sec.rate |
| MSSQL: Buffer cache hit ratio | Indicates the percentage of pages found in the buffer cache without having to read from the disk. The ratio is the total number of cache hits divided by the total number of cache lookups over the last few thousand page accesses. After a long period of time, the ratio changes very little.

The lazy writer is a system process that flushes out batches of dirty, aged buffers (buffers that contain changes that must be written back to the disk before the buffer can be reused for a different page) and makes them available to user processes. The lazy writer eliminates the need to perform frequent checkpoints in order to create available buffers. | DEPENDENT | - | mssql.lazy_writes_sec.rate |

| MSSQL: Page reads per second | Indicates the number of physical database page reads that are issued per second. This statistic displays the total number of physical page reads across all databases. As physical I/O is expensive, you may be able to minimize the cost either by using a larger data cache, intelligent indexes, and more efficient queries, or by changing the database design. | DEPENDENT | - | mssql.page_reads_sec.rate |
