new altert for service state of PowerBI Reporting Services PBIRS like "SQL Server Reporting Service status (2017+)"
In addition to SQL Server Reporting Services SSRS, we have more and more PowerBI Reporting Services PBIRS.
For SSRS since 2017 there is a separate alarm "SQL Server Reporting Service status (2017+)" in Redgate.
This tells us when an SSRS is no longer running. This also works.
However, as far as I can tell, this alert does not cover PBIRS.
Recently, customers increasingly want PBIRS instead of SSRS and unfortunately we do not currently see the status of the PBIRS service in Redgate and do not receive an alert if this service is not running.
We know that PBIRS and SSRS are different products that are not an official part of SQL Server (anymore).
SSRS and PBIRS are very similar from our administrator's point of view.
However, SSRS and PBIRS are additional service extensions of the SQL server at this point, which we have to monitor in some way.
It would be fantastic if Redgate could also display/report the status of PBIRS services.
Power BI Report Server, which replaces SQL Server Reporting Services from SQL Server 2025, is now also monitored from version 14.26.0

We just tried this version (14.26.0.30761) and can't find a separate alert for PBIRS. I just assumed it would be a separate alert.
Or is PBIRS now part of "SQL Server Reporting Service status (2017+)" ?We're also seeing a new error message that we've never seen before.
Could this message be related to the changes made to PBIRS?Date, 23 Jul 2026 14:25:14
