Aug 28, 2015 at 12:28 comment added Reaces @AaronBertrand Due to certain security constrictions the first line helpdesk is not allowed to access the server remotely. Only SSMS sessions.
Aug 28, 2015 at 12:20 comment added Aaron Bertrand Wouldn't perfmon or resource monitor or procmon be better ways to capture CPU metrics than the system_health session?

Aug 28, 2015 at 10:33 comment added Reaces @Colin'tHart I agree. I'm very new at my current job and it's the first thing I want to change. Consistent and comprehensive statistic gathering. But you don't change everything over night, and I want first to get them using a template to respond to queries about the statistics, some of the responses I've seen through our mailbox have been lackluster.
Aug 28, 2015 at 10:15 comment added Colin 't Hart Seems to me your current monitoring system is inadequate if it doesn't have such basic metrics readily available.

Aug 28, 2015 at 9:40 comment added Reaces @Shanky I added an example. The purpose behind it is to allow our helpdesk to give consistent answers to questions coming from other departments. The question often arises to check cpu usage or memory usage on our instances. And as our current monitoring system does not have these statistics readily available for our helpdesk, I was tasked with creating some scripts to allow them to give consistent replies before we set up a way for them to access our MDW.
