Registering SQL Server Instances
Before you can view performance information about an instance of SQL Server, you need
to register it. From the File menu, select Add Server
Registration to open the Server Registration dialog.
Enter the following values in the Server Registration dialog and
click OK:
- SQL Server: Name or IP address of the
server you want to monitor. For example, SQLSRV1 for the default
instance or SQLSRV1\InstanceA
for a named instance.
- Windows Authentication or SQL Server Authentication: Select
the method of authentication you want to use to connect to the server.
Remote servers usually require SQL Authentication.
- Login Name: The login name used to connect
to SQL Server if SQL Server Authentication is used.
- Password: The password used to connect to SQL Server if SQL
Server Authentication is used.
