SQL File Space Monitor not Populating Variables

orioncrack

I enabled the file group alert and we're getting emails with all the $ variable tags instead of data. Any ideas here?

The database file "${PhysicalName}" is running low on space ${DatabaseFileFreeSpaceInPercents}.

Database Details:

Database name:

${DatabaseName}

Server:

SQLServer1

SQL Instance Name:

${InstanceName}

Database File name & path:

${PhysicalName}

Database size of data:

${DatabaseSize}

Remaining free space:

${DatabaseFreeSpace}

New problem - we completely diabled the montor and SAM is still sending us email alerts.

How do you troubleshoot phantom email alerts for a monitor that is not enabled?

Wonderful.

orioncrack, were you able to get these issues resolved?

Hi Alter ~ I have no resolved this.

The extremely odd thing is we disabled the monitor and we're still getting the alerts.

Any ideas on the macros not coming thru?

Thanks for your time as always.

Did you disable/remove the entire AppInsight for SQL template from the node?

Hi orioncrack,

Can you try to run Database Maintenance tool? It should clear orphaned data and hopefully it solves the issue.

No dice. Same emails coming in from disabled alert. I wouldn't mind if the macros were working but it's making people nervous that we can't control or fix this.

What's the frequency of incoming emails? Can you try temporarily stop alerting service? If the service is down but emails still coming, I would search for an issue on SMTP server.

If it doesn't help I suggest you to open support ticket.

The frequency is when they're triggered.

The alerts are correct, as file group space is running low.

BUT, I have disabled the alert due to the macro $ issue and they're still dropping in.

What table holds the activated alerts?

i guess I can poke around the tables..
