DB Connections by WMI Job

Similarly to the DB Connections by Shell job, this job attempts to create a list of processes and services, and parses them for database signatures.

Since an agent does not have access to output of commands such as netstat, this job is limited in that the listener ports of database servers are not always identified. Port information for databases such as Microsoft SQL Server is available in the Windows registry, and this job queries that information when connected through WMI.

This job uses the Database Connections by Agent adapter.
