On SQL Server 2005 twenty rules stood as "not measurable" (Query Store,
system_health, memory columns …) between the real gaps, and counted in the
overview's "regler ikke målbare". They are not gaps: the version simply
lacks what they look at.
- New RuleOutcome.NotApplicable (last in the enum: outcomes are stored as
numbers, so existing rows keep their meaning).
- A rule or collector missing only capabilities inherent to the instance
(version-gated, plan cache memory columns, or Azure-managed) is not
applicable, with the version each needs: "Ikke relevant for SQL Server
2005: kræver QueryStore (fra SQL Server 2016)". Missing settings or rights
(HADR not enabled …), collector failures and permission errors stay
"not measurable". CollectedData.MarkNotApplicable carries this from
collectors to the rules that use their data; community rules below their
minimumVersion are not applicable too.
- Counts are unchanged in shape: the overview, KPI, JSON API and Prometheus
count outcomes 2 and 3 only. The instance page lists the rest in a
collapsed "Ikke relevant for SQL Server 2005 (n)" (details/summary, no
JS) after the real gaps. Report controls whose core rule does not apply
count neither as met nor as not measured.
Tests: engine (version vs. setting vs. collected data), inherent
capabilities, the existing version tests now expect not applicable, report
control status, and the web page and overview count.

Collectors (SQL Server 2000+, version-specific SQL, least privilege):
server, configuration, trace flags, databases (settings, backups in UTC,
CHECKDB, VLFs, Query Store, files, tempdb), suspect pages, plan cache,
wait stats and file I/O as deltas with restart/clear detection,
performance counters, CPU from the scheduler monitor ring buffer,
blocking (sleeping head blockers with open transactions), and deadlocks
from system_health continuing from the last file offset.
Rules: configuration (memory, MAXDOP per Microsoft NUMA guidance, cost
threshold, ad hoc bloat, risky options, pending changes), databases
(state, settings, backups, log backups, CHECKDB, suspect pages, VLFs,
autogrowth, max size, Query Store, tempdb), waits (THREADPOOL, signal
waits, locks, I/O, WRITELOG, parallelism, PAGELATCH), I/O latency, CPU,
memory grants, blocking and deadlocks. Missing data makes a rule not
measurable with the collector's reason.
Integration tests run every collector as the least-privilege login and
reproduce real blocking and a real deadlock; green on 2017 and 2022.
