New MBV builds : Lot of additional queries and fixes
Hello,
I updated today a new build of MBV.
With the previous one published few weeks ago, MBV brings now lot of new interesting queries and fixes (see below the complete list).
As interesting new query, MBV is parsing now your SQL Error logs for critical errors and raise corresponding warnings if found.
MBV is reporting now also the SQL agent log containg any errors if the BizTalk jobs are failing.
MBV includes also now the "tempdb" inf Db analyzed so you can see quickly in MBV report the size and files info about your temp. Knowing as important the tempdb is, it can be useful to have this info in report as well.
I added also again some new parsing rules for the Eventlog query identifying so possible know issues bases on the event source, event ID, and the event message contain.
Feel free so to use now latest version on my blog (https://blogs.technet.com/jpierauc/pages/msgboxviewer.aspx) containing these features and report me your comment or bugs found
Thanks !
JP
