MSSQL on Linux: SQL Server Service Broker or Database Mirroring transport is disabled or not configured

Microsoft.SQLServer.Linux.EventRule.DBEngine.The_SQL_Server_Service_Broker_or_Database_Mirroring_transport_is_disabled_or_not_configured_5_Rule (Rule)

The rule triggers an alert when the SQL Server Service Broker or Database Mirroring transport is disabled or not configured. Note that this rule is disabled by default. Use overrides to enable it when necessary.

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

SQL Server Service Broker or Database Mirroring endpoint is disabled or not configured.

Causes

This event is logged in the Linux application log as MSSQLSERVER event ID 9666. The Database Mirroring and Service Broker transport related error message is triggered even if Service Broker or Data Mirroring is not enabled. This is because the communication stack on which these features depend is started when SQL Server starts. Service Broker will not work if transport is disabled.

Resolutions

This issue may be resolved by:

Either creating the endpoint or enabling it. To create the endpoint, use the CREATE ENDPOINT statement. To enable the endpoint, use the ALTER ENDPOINT statement.
Disabling this rule using overrides for this specific database or all databases.

External

For information about creating an endpoint, see " CREATE ENDPOINT (Transact-SQL) " article in Microsoft SQL Server Docs Online.

For information about altering an endpoint, see " ALTER ENDPOINT (Transact-SQL) " article in Microsoft SQL Server Docs Online.

For more information about Database Mirroring, see the " Database Mirroring Endpoint " article in the Microsoft SQL Server Docs Online.

If this rule is not a concern for the database:

Disable the rule for this specific database or all databases
