Today I released the November 2019 update of Database Health Monitor.

Thanks to everyone who contributed to the Indiegogo campaign to fund the November release of Database Health Monitor. Your support is much appreciated.

Here are the release notes.

Version 2.9.4 Release Notes

Version 2.9.4 is the November release of Database Health Monitor.

New Reports

• Added a new instance level connections report that shows client connections and counts of connections.
• Added a new instance level security report.

New Features

• Added better messaging when configuring historic reporting so that it is clear that a DBHealthHistory database will be created and that a SQL Agent job will be created, and if you are running from a central monitoring server, a linked server connection will be created. Note for local monitoring no linked server connection is needed.
• Added a sort instances by alias menu in the tree view. All instances that have an alias are sorted first by alias, then those without an alias are sorted by the regular server name.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a bug in the index advisor dialog where the index name and table name were reversed.
• Fixed 2 bugs in the Quick Scan report related to case sensitive database.

At the support level that you contributed to the project you have received a 1 year license to use Database Health Monitor. That will be applied to your account for the year 2020 as long as you are registering for Database Health Monitor with the same email that you registered for the indiegogo campaign. If you need to update or change your email, please just send me an email and I will update the license code. Your license code will be good through the end of 2020.

Have a great day, and thanks again for your support.
