| Datasource Instance Expression | The datasource to which this database collector is connected may list multiple database instances from which the data may be read. Each Datasource Instance is identified by a unique string. This expression should evaluate to a plain text string which allows the database collector to determine the specific instance to use. If the expression is blank then the database collector will assume that there is only one instance and will use that one by default. If there is more than one instance and no expression is provided here then an error will be thrown during analysis since the database collector will be unable to determine which instance to use. |
