Network utilization - Is there any way to get bytes instead of %

JeffK

with 10+ GB network adapters and teamed in some cases to 40 GB the percentage of utilization is useless   Maybe there is some network bytes/type data capture i'm missing?

I would LOVE to be able to see how much network traffic is happening, in actual raw numbers instead of a percentage

Hi Jeff, 

Sadly, it's not a feature. However, if you can get the information you want from a SQL query, you may be able to write a custom metric. Unfortunately, this wouldn't be a supported solution by Redgate. 

I would highly recommend adding this to the uservoice: https://sqlmonitor.uservoice.com/forums/91743-suggestions

Thanks Robyn!  I've searched the link and found a suggestion from 2014 and made a note:
