Job Duration

Microsoft.Azure.ManagedInstance.Monitor.AgentJob.Duration (UnitMonitor)

Monitors Agent Job Duration.
Note that SQL Server Agent Service is not controlled by the user.

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

This monitor checks all jobs on the Managed Instance SQL Agent and if any of the jobs takes longer than the specified threshold, the monitor changes its state either to Warning or Critical. This does not generate an alert because there is an override to disable alerts to control noise. If you want this level of monitoring, you need to override Alerting back to enabled.

Overridable Parameters

Name	Description	Default Value
Alert Priority	Defines Alert Priority.	Normal
Alert Severity	Defines Alert Severity.	Match monitor’s health
Critical Threshold (minutes)	The monitor will change its state to Critical if the value exceeds this threshold. Being between this threshold and the warning threshold (inclusive) will result in the monitor being in a warning state.	120
Enabled	Enables or disables the workflow.	Yes
Generates Alerts	Defines whether the workflow generates an Alert.	Yes
Interval (seconds)	The recurring interval of time in seconds in which to run the workflow.	600
Synchronization Time	The synchronization time specified by using a 24-hour format. May be omitted.
Timeout (seconds)	Specifies the time the workflow is allowed to run before being closed and marked as failed.	300
Timeout for database connection (seconds)	The workflow will fail and register an event, if it cannot access the database during the specified period.	15
Warning Threshold (minutes)	Warning threshold. Exceeding this threshold will result in the monitor changing to at least a warning state.	60
