You Moved SQL Server to Linux. Why Is Your Monitoring Still on Windows?
Most SQL Server monitoring still reaches for Windows to do its job: WMI for host metrics, a Windows agent to run the collection, a domain account to authenticate it.

How host metrics come from SQL Server's own views, how availability groups behave under Pacemaker, and what works differently on Linux.
