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.

Restrict the read only role to only the "Overview" page.
I've explored using Read Only views for SQL Monitor and they work great, while really parring down the amount of information that the user can see. However, is there are way to lock it down even further so that they can only see the homescreen with the colored status on the specified SQL Instances? Essentially only allowing them to see status without drilling down into the instance itself and viewing waits, disk, CPU etc.
This could be used by management, etc.

Job execution in overview graphs
It would be nice if you in the Overview graphs could see SQL Agent Jobs, just like long running queries, deadlocks etc.
It could be good for troubleshooting high disk IO, CPU etc, if you could see that a job has started running at a point.I've tried to illustrate my idea in the attached file.

When a custom metrics targets specific databases then only those database should be listed on the Analysis tab
Currently a custom metric is listed in the left most list box and the databases are in the right most. Some custom metrics are specific to a single database or a specific group of databases.
In either of these cases the database list in the last list box could be filtered to be only the databases that the metric relates to. This would save clicks and shorten the time taken to get to view the analysis trace.

Delay "Performance Data" Load for MOST Alerts
For at least 99% of Alerts of Interest over the last 6 YEARS of using SQL Monitor, the lower pane's "Performance Data" is of nigh on zero use.
IF it might be of use, give us a "Load..." button next to that heading, and load it on demand.
When I'm ploughing through a hundred or so predominantly Blocking Process and Deadlock alerts, the most important information is in the Details and Processes tabs.
Page loading delays will decrease because you won't have to pull eye-candy charts that aren't read for the bulk of the time.
The "Delay..." option, for me,…

Long running query alerts and daylight saving time changes
many long running query alerts generated between 1 am and 2 am on Sunday 11/5, as the time change caused it to add an hour when calculating all the query times. Can the alert be adjusted to account for the time change?

Include Custom SQL Code in alerts
When creating custom alerts, I would like to be able to include information that can be retrieved by running a SQL query.
One example is using the pre-built Failed SQL login custom alert that is available to setup. The alert notifies when this event occurs, but it fails to include information like which login failed, etc.
It would be nice to be able to build part of the e-mail body in the alert to include some critical data that can be queries using T-SQL.

check if there are any service packs or updates for my SQL Server instances
check if there are any service packs or updates for my SQL Server instances. This could then raise an alert to prompt me to investigate these updates.

enhance Title on Analysis Graph Page with "machine metrics"; "machine name"; (all)
Simply add to existing title with the selection of dropdown boxes as "machine metrics"; "machine name"; (all).
So we don't need to scroll down or include the bottom boxes to know which machine and options are being displayed...

Allow nested groups on the Overview screen
I have a structure of groups where the first level is environment (Production, Test, Development, etc) but then I have component as a second level (ETL, Application, Data QA, Sandbox). On the Overview screen, only the first level of the grouping is used, and therefore I have servers under 'Production' all bundled together and ordered by name across all the secondary groups. Would be good if the overview screen could show multiple groups somehow ... I understand there might be servers under the first level and the second level, and it might be weird for some customers ... but for…
