Added cached collection and interpretation of
SQL Server Agent job names.
Notable Query
Added default Query checksum for binary zero
hashes. This will prevent the grouping of queries which are not alike such as
ROW FETCH operations.
Added advanced option [Use Actuals when Deltas
Are Unavailable] which allows for collection of single run notable queries and
for the collection and use of queries where a qualifying previous session
cannot be used for delta calculation.
Notable query search grid limit increased from
100 to 1,000.
Notable query drill-through into individual
collections are now grouped by last execution date.
Added option to view baseline notable queries.
These are typically hidden, but can be insightful in cases where notable
queries are observed only a few times or when SQL Server is frequently flushing
the execution cache.
Notable Query Observations
Added cached collection and interpretation of
SQL Server Agent job names.
Performance Dashboard
Converted SQL Waits and Wait Categories to
average milliseconds per second.
Alerting
Added additional options to prevent the
averaging of small durations of SQL executions and SQL Agent jobs which
underexaggerate the duration of workloads. This should cut down on excessive
alerts.
Renamed SQL Server Agent Job “History” alerts to
“Activity”.
Added several new conditions to [SQL Agent Job
Activity] alert category which allow for alerting of out of band duration executions.
Added SQL Object Name (when applicable) to the
notable query observation alerts.
Issues
Resolved issue with installer overwriting ACTIVE
flag on alert operator groups.
Resolved issue removing all members of an alert
group.
Resolved issue with dashboards using the day
after the selected day.
Resolved issue with query workload observations
which caused application name, login name and host name to be omitted from
collection when the wait type was NULL.
Resolved issue where index count reported by notable
query search was not matched to the index suggestion search.
Resolved issues with Database Report parameters
not passing the ComputerId to reports.
