Suggestions

Welcome to the Redgate Monitor feature suggestions list. Tell us how we can improve Redgate Monitor by voting on these suggestions or by submitting your own ideas.

This is the easiest way to make an impact on Redgate Monitor’s roadmap. Check out the completed suggestions to see how your ideas have influenced us in the past. Please note that this list is one of multiple sources that drive our development, meaning that we will not always implement the highest-ranking suggestions.

To give your idea the greatest possible impact, please follow these guidelines:

  • Describe the goal you’re trying to accomplish, rather than a specific solution to get there
  • If you have a favoured solution, add it as a comment to your suggestion
  • Give us as much context as possible
  • Only make one suggestion per post. If you have multiple ideas, submit them in separate posts
  • Comment and vote on existing posts to develop the ideas — often the SQL Monitor team will initially stay quiet about new suggestions to see what you have to say!

If you have any questions visit the Redgate Monitor forum.


In Redgate Monitor, I want to...

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can support and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can support it.

  2. ADD Support for GCP Cloud SQL (MSSQL managed instances)

    As Google Cloud Platform increases their market share and adds features such as managed instances for Microsoft SQL Server, it would be great to have the ability to monitor those as well.

  4. For Installed Version doesn't show the patching details of the active and passive node of FCI

    For Installed Version doesn't show the patching details of the passive node of FCI
    So if cluster has 3 nodes, you should one line for each
    this will be very helpful if we have missed out on patching inany node then the SQL Monitor can high light this to us

  9. Report showing least or busiest server.

    I would like a report that uses the historical data collected by SQL Monitor that would show the least busy or busiest servers so that I will be able to plan where to put additional workload, or re-distribute work load.

  10. Remove single AG replica

    Currently when adding an Availability Group it automatically discover and add all replicas which is great.

    However sometime we might not want all replicas to be monitored, in our case it's because of limited bandwidth on a certain asynchronous node. While it is indeed possible to "Pause Monitoring" on that node, it would be nice to be able to delete it completely (using some kind of exception list so it's not re-added automatically).

  11. Do not uncheck alarms after entering a comment

    Scenario: Let's say there are 15 related alarms in the alarm inbox on which you want to add a common comment and then clear.

    Currently you would check the 15 alarms, click on the comment button and enter your comment. Unfortunately at that point it would uncheck all the selected alarms and you would need to check them again to clear them.

    After entering a comment I would like the current selection to stay checked.

  12. Change Overviews to Overview

    The "Overviews" menu item is grammatically incorrect. The menu item should be spelled "Overview". "Overviews" is most commonly used as a verb. The plural noun form is relatively uncommon and would refer to a general review or summary of multiple, distinct subject areas.

  15. Backup overdue alert - RegEx filter

    I have many non-production databases on production SQL Instance, that make no sense to backup. I know I can turn this alert off one by one on each database. RegEx filter by database name would be help.

  18. Indicator that an active backup is ongoing on card

    Have some kind of indicator an active backup/restore header is ongoing, card or icon pulsating, shaded etc. This is handy to see at a glance if too many backups are going at once.
