What's new:
Behavior changes
Issue #279
Starting with this release, if an instance-wide check is being done on an instance with 50 or more databases, PSBlitz will automatically limit the following checks to the database that appears the most in the data returned by the cache related checks:
- Index Summary
- Index Usage Details
- (Detailed) Index Diagnosis
New parameter
The -MaxUsrDBs
parameter was introduced to control the cutoff for the behavior change described above. The default is 50, but only change the value if most of those databases don't have too many tables and/or indexes, or you've opted to output to HTML and have enough RAM for PS to handle the excess data. Note that PSBlitz will limit the Index Usage and Index Diagnostics outputs to 30k records if more rows are returned.
New cache related checks
Issues #115, #277
Duplicates and query hash will provide data about queries with duplicate plans and queries with single use plans.
More info added to the "Instance Info" and "Database Info" report pages
Instance Info
Issue #282
Now shows the buffer usage in GB in the "Resource Info" section.
Database Info
Issue #280
Now shows the amount of cached data in GB and the percent of buffer usage on a per-database basis in the "Database Info" section
Additional info captured in the execution log
Issue #278
The execution log now makes a note of the type of authentication used (not the credentials or anything like that) either SQL or trusted - this is purely for debugging purposes.
