What’s New in SQL Diagnostic Manager 13.3?

Resource Drill Down and Status Screens are now available in the SQL DM Web Console

SQL Diagnostic Manager 13.3 continues to expand SQL Diagnostic Manager Web Console’s capabilities into the more complex usage patterns of Senior SQL Server DBAs.

Added Resource Category Views:

Under the Resources Tab the sub-categories of:

• CPU
• Memory
• Disk
• Disk Size
• File Activity

have been reimplemented in the SQL DM Web Console with a look and feel similar to the windows console.

Why are these important?

When debugging a slow running query, or sluggish system, experienced DBAs often start their process by inspecting system resource utilization. Quickly understanding whether there is a CPU utilization, Disk I/O or Memory consumption problem determines where the debug process starts.  With Diagnostic Manager 13.3, these resource views are now fully accessible through the SQL DM Web Console.

Previous to Diagnostic Manager 13.3, this category of diagnosis drill down would have required returning to the Diagnostic Manager Windows Console.

GA Release of Maintenance Release Enhancements

A number of maintenance releases were merged into DM 13.3 and become GA available in DM 13.3.

Below are four examples of the new feature screens in the Web Console:

Why This Matters for DBAs

SQL environments are getting busier, more distributed, and harder to troubleshoot. These upgrades help DBAs:

• Diagnose slow queries faster

• Perform deeper historical analysis

• Build clean, shareable reports

• Troubleshoot performance issues from anywhere

• Strengthen their overall SQL Server performance posture

In short, SQL Diagnostic Manager 13.3 gives you better visibility, faster insight, and more flexibility—no matter the size or complexity of your environment.
