I said to him that while it won't alert us anymore, we'll also lose visibility into that aspect. The other senior DBA on staff got frustrated with the alerts, so he just went and turned the alarm completely off. They need to make an interface where it's easier to turn the alerts off but not turn the alarm off. And at least 395 of them were white noise. Over this past weekend I had 400 emails from Foglight.
I want to be able to go back, once we get the other big issues out of the way, and start fine-tuning some of those other areas, but I don't necessarily want to receive an email for all of them. Then I have to dig in and figure out how to turn alerts off, but not the logging. Having said that, there's still a lot of "noise." I get a lot of alerts that, while important, are not critical. I had other responsibilities besides just DBA work so I couldn't focus on what Foglight could give me. I had never used Foglight before I got to this company, because I didn't have the time.
