Configure the type of server (Amazon RDS SQL Server, Azure SQL Database, Linux, or Windows) for each of the added SQL Server instances.

The select cloud providers for the added servers window allows you to choose a cloud provider for your monitored SQL Server instances that are hosted on the cloud (PaaS). SQL Diagnostic Manager supports Amazon RDS and Microsoft SQL Azure (SQL Azure Database, elastic pool, and managed instances).

Azure SQL and Amazon RDS permissions

Review the Minimum and Recommended Permissions for Amazon RDS and the Minimum Permissions for Azure SQL to create a SQL Server user on the server to monitor a cloud instance.

In addition, SQLDM supports monitoring of images hosted on virtualized or cloud IaaS environments such as SQL Server on Azure virtual machines and Amazon EC2. Monitoring a virtualized instance requires no cloud-specific configuration. Select "Not a cloud instance" for a virtualized or cloud IaaS instance.

Access the Add Servers wizard

You can open the Add Servers wizard from the SQL Diagnostic Manager Console menu by selecting > Manage Servers, and clicking Add in the Manage Servers window.
