Hi!
The last log indicates that Metricbeat is not able to connect to DB. Can you check your configuration again and see what could be the reason?
C.
Hi!!!
I am able to connect Database server from other machines through SQL server Management Studio but not through mssql.yml
Below is configuration in mssql.yml
"# Module: mssql
Docs: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/metricbeat/7.10/metricbeat-module-mssql.html
- module: mssql
metricsets:- "transaction_log"
- "performance"
hosts: ["sqlserver://sqlserveraddress"]
username: domain\username (mentioned correct user name)
password: verysecurepassword (mentioned correct password)
period: 10s
"
please let me know if this is correct way to define MSSQL DB server parameters in yml file.
hi @rohan0018, are you using Active Directory domain credentials for the login? Else you have to specify native user credentials as part of the host string with the following format:
Ex
hosts: ["sqlserver://sa@localhost"]]
Hi Mariana,
As per your suggestion I have tried below format
"hosts: ["sqlserver://sa:password@sqlserveraddress"]"
but no luck, I got below logs when tried with above format.
"Exiting: 2 errors: host parsing failed for mssql-transaction_log: error parsing URL: parse "sqlserver://sa:"sa user password": invalid port ":"sa user password"" after host; host parsing failed for mssql-performance: error parsing URL: parse "sqlserver://sa:sa user password": invalid port ":"sa user password"" after host"
any help on this issue.
Hi @rohan0018 
Please, can you detail your Metricbeat version, your MSSQL version and your Windows version? It might be some kind of version mismatch (we don't have like a compatibility matrix but maybe you have found some issue on this).
On the other hand, can you try connecting only using the hosts field and using an addressable IP (not a hostname)? Just to check if it's something related.
