NUMA-aware metrics

kevriley

Without getting into the detail about the relative usefulness of various counters, have you ever considered adding NUMA nodes to the metrics in SQL Monitor?

Some counters (target, total memory) are useful to see at the individual NUMA node, and others (PLE) have even less meaning when not viewed at the NUMA node level.

I suppose for now I can add my own custom metric, but I would have thought that NUMA was quite widespread now.

It's not something we've considered yet Kevan really, if you do have any thoughts about it though we'd welcome them.

Although then trying to view multiple PLE metrics on the same graph runs into this problem: https://forum.red-gate.com/discussion/81828/mixing-metrics-on-analysis-graph
