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.

Exclude tempdb/ReportServerTempDB from Alerts at a GLOBAL level, WITH EASE
It makes no sense for there to be Alert configuration settings for tempdb for Consistency Checks, Backups, and any other irrelevance.
If the ONLY reason for the existence of SSRS databases is because of Microsoft's idiotic requirement for SSRS to actually be configured in 2014 before permitting an in-place upgrade to 2016, there is no ACTUAL reason why one would care two hoots about the state of either SSRS DB on ANY instance affected by this "demand". OK, I have just 21 instances to drill down to SHUT UP ABOUT SSRS DATABASES!
Please provide a better way to manage SYSTEM…

Overview - Drill-through ability on Splits/sec to the Queries causing it
So we get to the "Analysis" page when clicking on a peak in the Page Splits/sec graph. But that tells me the same thing, in larger form, but not the root cause...
It's the root cause of 20K/sec I'm after... So, please give us the CHOICE of drill-through, to the responsible queries grid, or some other place. It's only useful if the ACTUAL queries causing the splits are listed, not just a repetition of the top-10.
Thanks.

Alarm based on cumulative wait ms/s
The per server overview includes a graph of wait ms/s. I want to be able to set an alarm threshold based on Core Count and wait ms/s - If the server is waiting for more than 30% of total available cycles then raise an alarm
E.g. Server has 24 cores, and therefore 24,000 ms/s of available waits
Wait ms/s = 10,000 - 10,000 / 24,000 = 41.7% - ALARM
Wait ms/s = 2,500 - 2,500 / 24,000 = 10.4% - No alarm5 votes -
Customize Estate Version Thresholds
On the estate tab, it would be nice to customize the thresholds that define the yellow and red state. For example, a server behind on one CU might be yellow, but others red.

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.

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).

Suppress Free Space monitor (Azure Hyperscale DB)
When using Azure Hyperscale DB - the DB auto grows - therefore the Free Space monitor needs to be silenced/ignored forever (except if you about to hit the max of 100TB!)

Easily identify which base monitor is hosting a monitored SQL Server host
In a multi-base monitor configuration it is a bit cumbersome to identify which base monitor is hosting a given entry on the overview page. Yes, one can search all the SQL Server host machines on each base host, but that takes time. It would be better to have an entry in overviews that identifies where it is hosted.

Integrate query store with monitor to find regressed queries
Query store already tracks regressed queries. Integrating this into the monitor and having the ability to alert on this would be extremely useful in having early notifications on when a query goes bad before application or system issues come up

be able to switch support for cloud-features and off based on company needs
Some companies still operate on-premises only, others operate only for Amazon RDS xor Azure. Having all these cloud-database features enabled clutters the user interface and I'd rather like to enable/disable such support through configuration options like
[ ] enable Amazon RDS
[ ] enable Azure SQL
[ ] enable Azure Instance
...
[ ] enable Oracle/xxx/yyy features5 votes -
Word Wrap Alert Comments
Super minor detail, but it would be a more pleasant experience if I didn't have to use a scroll bar to read comments on Alerts. If it were word wrapped in some manner it would make the user experience better for me.
