Hello,

I would like to know if it's possible with prtg to read a value in a SQL Table and depending of this value change the color of the sensor?

Thanks,

Regards,

Raphael Salmon

Hello Raphael,

Thank you for your message.

You can effectively monitor a specific value from a SQL table with PRTG. To do so, you have to create the corresponding SQL file as indicated in the manual of the sensor you are using. You will find it here: https://www.paessler.com/manuals/prtg/available_sensor_types

Then, in the sensor settings select the SQL file you previously created, enable the option Process Data Table and then configure the channel settings accordingly.

Finally, you only have to configure warning/error limit in the settings of the corresponding channel.

Regards.
