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 — the Redgate Monitor team will often stay quiet initially about new suggestions to see what you have to say!
If you have any questions visit the Redgate Monitor forum.

Set database file usage per drive level on the DATABASE LEVEL
, i know we can set database file usage per drive level on the server level. But there are many times when a vendor created db, they have multiple data files mdf/ndf and have them set to limits. So i was wondering can we get even more granular. I want to be able to drill down to the database and select a particular file group and say ignore this drive, it has met its capacity and even though its 100% filled data is no longer being written there. And the reason behind that is there can be multiple data files…

identify blocking sql no longer executing, but didnt commit transaction
I want to be able to see the blocking statemement of a session that is done executing a statment, but did not commit the transaction. It seems that the "blocking Statment" is missing in the blockchain, if the statement causing the block is no longer executing. This leads me to think that your currently pulling the sqlhandle of the blocking session, whereas the more , or at least sometimes more appropiate think to do is to pull the "mostrecentsqlhandle" from sqltext. please consider.

"Whats new" should link to the relevant release notes under "New features" tab
It currently only shows up the the release currently running, not what is in the new release. I have to search the web site to find out whether there is anything in the release that I care about enough to upgrade.

Custom Metrics are specific to a base monitor without a way to copy them
I have to create all custom metrics and alerts 3 times, once in each base monitor. And there is no way in the UI to copy from one to another.
I guess this makes sense because each base monitor only knows about the groups and targets it has. But it would be a great enhancement if the UI supported copying the custom metrics from one base monitor to another.

On the Alerts Group Details > Blocking Process page, I want to see Start, End, and Blocked Process Count columns columns
I would like to see Start and End columns or a Duration column, along with a Blocked Process Count.
When displaying the Process tab on the detail page, it would be helpful for each blocked process to display as a collapsed line in a tree, each branch of which can be expanded. Each line should display the SessionId, Start and End or Duration, and the Application, Host, User, and the first (n) characters of the SQL fragment. It is great to have all the details available, but I currently get one huge page with no navigation for one blocker (see…

Have links on the Configuration/Alerts page look like links
The alert names don’t look like links, so I never tried clicking on them until recently. That does work, as does clicking on the Description. However, some styling (blue text or a blue underline) would make this feature more discoverable for oblivious people like me. 😊

Tags in "About" section are viewable, but not selectable or copyable
The tags in the about section in a monitored Server are viewable, but not copyable.
We use tags for the category or a contact person or person of charge or additional information hints.This information as tags are a easy appoachable and fast way to see those information from a sql server.
But there is no easy way to copy the content of a tag. You can easily drop a tag or create a new tag, but is impossible to select/copy (somehow select + right click + copy or select + ctrl c) the content of a tag.

add SSO option to the AD/LDAP logon screen
Attached file is from an application we use that allows the user to quickly logon as themselves, or to manually enter network credentials. In addition, the attached file shows a logon screen with the application version number; this too would be helpful for Redgate Monitor without having to login and check the configuration info page.

Webhook Filter on Alert Severtiy
Situation: After setting up a webhook of SQL Monitor to Service Now we are getting tickets of all priorities
Background: We would only like tickets to be created that are actionable
Assessment: We can enable this on the javascript side of the service now webhook to remove low priority webhook calls however it would be prefered to do it in RedGate
Recommendation: Is it possible to have the same feature that email has "Call webhooks only if alert severity is High or Medium only"

Show "HostPID" on deadlocks
Add "Hostname" and "Hostpid" detail to blocking processes and long running queries in RedGate, this information is available deadlocks.
This would help us to identify the process causing the blocking to further investigate fixes vs trying to work out the process from the SQL code, which can often look similar to other queries.

Uncover hidden tuning opportunities by toggling graphs to a different scale
Two problems, one suggested solution: First, too often something important to us is hidden, because the graph showing the critical metric is skewed by another event. In order to show the peak of that event, the graph is scaled such that other activity is just a flat line at the bottom. Second, graphing multiple measures in a single graph, when their scales vary widely, makes interpretation difficult--for a contrived example, imagine plotting CPU (scales to 100) and batches per second (scales to tens of thousands for our web site). A tool for tuning MongoDB provides a beautiful solution, by allowing…

Remove sys from Top Queries as a filter
On the dashboard “Top Queries” grid, a way to filter out any queries that were system wrote or 'sys' wrote. This way you can monitor only the queries that you have written.

To add on - able to save the metric of baseline in 'Analysis' page by showing different metric graph with their own baseline
I think this idea is useful for metric comparison with the baseline. Currently, user need to select the metric every single time login into the page. This config could not be saved.

compare query metrics across instances
I would like to be able to compare query metrics across SQL Server server instances.
We have a number of environments - Dev / QA / UAT / Production
the data generally increases in volume and gets more "real" the further up the chain we go which can mean something that performs well against the "small data" on the dev server can become an issue when it hits UAT which has real volumes of data
It would be useful to be able to compare a query across instances so if we release a feature which comprises of a number of…
