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.

Allow users access to view specific reports
Currently I create a few reports for different business areas and e-mail them daily. It would be really useful if they could follow the link on the page and view their reports only without having access to the site in general. They could then use the report filters.
Another idea would be to be able to create a reports page with a static link where I could put several different reports, users would have access to this page only and be able to view any reports created in real time.6 votes -

Blocking process alert based on number of descendants
While the alert for blocking process is great, it would be nice to be able to configure the trigger for number of descendants affected as well.
If a blocking process runs for 30 seconds and affects 10 people but the alert is configured for a one minute duration of the block it would obviously not let you know

On the Overview screen, collapse AlwaysOn clusters into a single tile
I have quite a few AlwaysOn groups, with 3 servers as part of the group. SQL Monitor very cleverly takes the cluster name and adds all 3 servers to the monitoring list ... HOWEVER, on the Overview screen, they show as individual servers. It would be good if I could collapse that all down into one tile that shows an overall health of the group. I realize this is a different situation from an FCI because there can be multiple 'active' nodes, but it would be good if SQL Monitor understood that I added an AG listener server list and…

documentation
Add Server documentation such as:
- app owners,
- support type (24/7, next business day),
- escalation contacts (clients to contact for unscheduled maintenances),
- primary purpose (main application using the server, business function)
- Add costum fields for server notes or setup instructions

open alert link in new tab or window
When viewing an alert within the side-bar on the Overview page, clicking on the 'Go to the full details' arrow redirects the page to the intended alert. You have to then click back to see the overview page again.
It would be great for the ability to be able to open click through links on a new tab or window instead of the same window to prevent navigating away from the overview page.

Retain user last selection and update current default time options to be more flexible
On the Overviews of an instance Server/Host Metrics the default selections are always the last 24 hours as well as having all 4 boxes ( CPU, Memory, Disk I/o and Waits) select.
I am constantly having to uncheck the Memory box and most individuals look at the last 6 hours or would prefer ( 1 or 3 hours) and have to change from the default last 24 hours to last 6 hours each time navigating to this page. I would like to be able to have SQL Monitor remember my last setting(s) or at least be able to change the…

View trace queries without alert
It would be nice to be able to view Trace queries without an alert. For example a separate page to go through the queries against the DB even when an alert is not raised.

be able to be advised if a certain query (sql_handle or query_hash) is suddenly taking much longer than normal to execute. Not only to see
I would like to be able to be advised if a certain query (grouped by sqlhandle or queryhash) is suddenly taking longer than normal to execute.
The query may or may not be included in the top 10 queries.

Remove dropped database from Configuration>Monitored servers
I would like to be able to delete a database from Configuration>Monitored servers, if that database has been dropped from the monitored SQL server.
As it stands now, if a database has been dropped, I have to remove it manually from the RedGateSQLMonitor database via script.6 votes -
Correct Database file usage alerts with In-Memory/Filestream Filegroups
The Database file usage alerts in V 8.2 are great, however they do not work correctly with Filestream filegroups. per https://forum.red-gate.com/discussion/comment/153592 they are not supported.
Please either add support for these filegroup types or disable them by default so we are not spammed by alerts for something that's not valid.
Thanks,

Configure Alert-Ended messages at alert type level
in the global settings I can configure, that I want to receive deescalation mails when an alert ended (e.g. CPU went back to normal, Server available again ...).
For many alerts this makes sense, but for other alerts not so much or not for everybody (e.g. deadlock alerts, the custom failed-logins alert, job-failed alerts...).
So it would be nice, if I could configure this (as most other options) at least at alert type level or better down on group / server / database etc.

Change Processor Utilization per instance
Currently i have 4 instances which are part of an availability group and run maintenance as various times. although different maintenance windows would be nice to have the flexibility of changing Processor Utilization per instance rather than per cluster.
