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.

  1. Add Active/Ended as SELECT drop-down options for Events

    The current Alerts page Select drop-down has None/All/Read/Unread

    For events, such as Disk Space, being able to Select "Ended" to get rid of the noise, helps focus on what needs to be addressed.

    If the list doesn't have any Event-type row, don't offer this pair of options.

  2. Add link to disk details on Server details page.

    From the Estate - Disk Usage tab we can select the specific drive to get usage details for that disk.
    When you navigate to a server from the Overview there is a section that shows the Disk Usage at a high level, but no links to drill into the specific disk.

  5. Add Text Boxes/Areas to Reports

    I have reports that I circulate from SQL Monitor. I have to edit these before I issue them to add additional information. E.g. Under the "Lock Waits/Sec" chart I have a description of what a "Lock Wait" is, what impact it has, what's an acceptable value, etc. I tried supplying a supplementary sheet with this info but the management team prefer it under each chart / metric.

  6. Disk space alert

    The disk space alert can be configured on Server-Level as a host machine alert, but the alert is fired for every Instance on that host.

    As example, we have 5 instances on a sever, each instance has it's own drive, e.g.
    instance1 on drive d:
    instance2 on drive e:
    instance3 on drive f:
    etc.

    If one instance, e.g. instance2 on drive e: is filling up it disk, the alert is fired for all instances. We would like to see an alert only for the instance that is affected and not 5 alerts.

  10. To show top server Process memory usage

    Under the "Processes", it would that we can sort the top memory usage as well. There are times we got alert that the server memory usage is high and we need to know what other OS processes is utilizing the server memory other than SQL.

  11. "Take Screenshot" Feature in Analysis Section

    I have the need very often to take screenshots for non-technical management slideshows.

    Could you add a button in the analysis panel to take a screenshot of the analysis timeline?

    I would like to obtain something like this (with a single click)

  12. 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.

  13. 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"

  14. 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.

  16. 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.

  17. 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…

  19. 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.
