Hello,

I have installed PMM 2 for first time (always used 1.x before) and I can’t find the Add RDS option in the new version. I checked but I can’t find anything about RDS in doc for versión 2.x. I know that I can connect vía remote MySQL Server but I think I’m forgetting something because I can see Amazon Aurora specific dashboards as in previous versions.

So, PMM 2 does remove support to add RDS instances?

Best regards,  
txetxu.

Thanks for asking txetxuvel.

We haven’t yet re-introduced our RDS Wizard, so for now extended metrics collection from the AWS Cloudwatch API (i.e. System-level like CPU, disk, memory) is not available.

For RDS you can treat it as a remote instance and configure the host/username/password combination in order to collect MYSQL / PostgreSQL metrics.
