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.

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.

  1. Remember the Filter Layout

    On the Alert Inbox it would be nice to be able to re-arrange the filters and for the options to be remembered no matter where I login.

  2. View stats for queries across databases and / or servers

    Given that one has multiple similar databases, recieving the same queries, having same indexes and so forth. Currently one are able to view top-queries on server and database level, but what would be very valuable is to see the same information across databases on a server and across servers where one would then match the query on a content of the query itself. Then one could pinpoint globally what queries that has high io / cpu / ... even tough they on a individual db-level is not "high"

  3. Save alert email addresses

    I monitor a large enterprise and forward hundreds of alerts using cut/paste. If recent addresses were retained, it would save a lot of time.

  5. Environment specific Reports

    As we have option to create different reports on SQL Monitor, We would like to have the option to create the reports as per environment (Dev,UAT,Prod) for Disk Space,Server Downtime etc. It will be more feasible if we can get a filter to create reports for the specific environment.

  6. See Transaction Isolation Levels in Blocking Alerts

    There are two methods I have been using to understand blocking situations on our servers:

    The processes tab in the Blocking Process alert
    The blocking processes section in the server overview

    I can get a lot of information from both of these methods but I don't seem to be able to get the isolation levels of the blocking or blocked queries which would be helpful in understanding why the blocking situation has occurred.

    Prior to using SQL monitor, we used the blocked process report to monitor blocking and these include the isolation levels. Unfortunately, I still have to resort to…

  8. Number of rows returned by query

    I'd like the ability to view the number of row returned by a query. Tools like Dynatace, XRebel, New Relic are able to display this and it's extremely useful in identifying queries that are selecting too many rows and in need for application logic / code rework.

  9. AG sync progress

    Implement Availability Group data synchronization progress.
    We use Automatic seeding and stats can be observed under "sys.dmhadrautomaticseeding" and "sys.dmhadrphysicalseeding_stats".
    Maybe that info not 100% accurate when Traceflag 9567 is ON, but anyway somehow helpful

  11. Produce a long running queries report ordered by average execution time

    I have been tasked with identifying queries with the longest average execution time so that they can be targeted for optimization. In the server overview this can be done in the top queries section, however this obviously only shows queries for that instance.

    In the reporting tab I can create a report for long running queries, but it is based around total execution time. It would be useful if this could be ordered by average execution time.

    A query that runs 100,000 times and takes 10ms will have a higher overall execution time than one that runs 50 times and…

  12. Set a custom alert for a individual tracked query

    We can track query's from the analysis page - good for when you want to see how a query changes over time. What would be even better would be to be able to set an alert on a tracked query on any metric but for example, the execution time so we can get an early alert if it is taking a long time to execute and it's business critical

  13. Longest queries which are running on each server.

    Right now we are getting only 4 queries. Also, if we check Database, these are only the system databases, Actual databases are not considered here.
    Our requirement is to get the Longest queries which are running on each server. After getting these details performance optimisation team is going to check those queries and try to optimise them. Can we get these details?

  14. Grant user access down to SQL instance or database level

    Currently the lowest level we can grant users access to cluster level. In multi-instance clusters this gives too much. Need to scope user access to instance and database level.

  16. Support Monitor Ubuntu with another port ( not port default 22)

    Dear Development Team,
    Currently, I'm using SQL Server running on Ubuntu ( with SSH port 5678). I can't connect to OS Linux via SSH port 5678. I don't see where to input the port (not the default port). I want the Team to enhance the feature allow to the input SSH port.

    I have created an issue to discuss here (https://productsupport.red-gate.com/hc/en-us/requests/305026)
    Thanks,
    Khoa.Nguyen

  17. Pause auto-refresh when you view query recommendations.

    When a user clicks on query recommendations, the auto-refresh needs to be paused. Otherwise, the recommendation pop-up window closes when Monitor refreshes.

  18. Index Analysis -- Index Object Filtering

    Index Object Filtering -- Ability to Exclude Objects.

    It would be nice to be able to exclude the RedGate indexes, or exclude specific databases, or other specific objects. Currently, filtering is more inclusion based but frequently exclusion is easier.

  19. Login to SQL Monitor using a CAC

    For members of the military or contractors, they login to systems using Common Access Cards (CACs). It would be great to allow users that are authorize to login to SQL Monitor, to be able to log in with just using their CAC and pin number.
