We are a relatively small company with a limited number of SQL licenses. We are also always trying to save money by reducing our licensing, so I was recently asked if DPA could be installed on a virtual SQL server that resided on the same host as the SQL server that we're monitoring?
I was concerned that I would get skewed results from DPA due to the shared physical resources. Is this the case?
Our pod consists of three physical hosts. What if DPA resided on a different host in the same pod as the monitored server?
