Hi huey Thank you for reaching out on the Redgate forums with your bulk-scripting request. You can absolutely mass-deploy SQL instances into Redgate Monitor without clicking through the UI. On the Configuration > Example Scripts page of your Monitor installation (https://<your-monitor-server>/Configuration/ExampleScripts ), there’s a full PowerShell example showing how to add:
Windows SQL instances
Linux SQL instances
PostgreSQL
Azure SQL / Managed Instance
RDS / Aurora
Flexible Postgres
[image] Once you’ve reviewed the examples, you can add in a loop through your server list; something like this: $servers = @(
"ServerA\SQL2019",
"ServerB\SQL2017",
"ServerC"
)
foreach ($name in $servers) {
Write-Host "Adding $name..."
$instance = New-RedgateMonitorSqlServer `
-FullName $name `
-BaseMonitor $BaseMonitor
$instance | Add-RedgateMonitorMonitoredObject
} That’s usually the fastest way to bulk-register dozens or hundreds of instances. If you haven't used the Powershell API before - I would recommend starting here: https://documentation.red-gate.com/monitor14/api-239668740.html to get the necessary info on how to download the Powershell cmdlets from your Monitor instance, generate a token and create your connection to the API to add your instances. / comments

Hi devtrading Thank you for reaching out via the Redgate forums regarding you SQL Data Compare I have replicated this using the latest version v15.4.28 and can find that the datetimeoffset on a leap year day at midnight does roll over to the next day. I also found that Data Compare changes the source date but not on the target which is certainly an odd behaviour. This will be escalated to our development team to investigate as a potential bug; I will update this forum post with any workaround/fixes as they are made available. [image] / comments

Hi emmar00 Thank you for reaching out on the Redgate forum. You’re right in that flyway_schema_history is just a regular table, so anyone with write access can modify it. The simplest protection is to lock down permissions so only the Flyway service account can perform DML on the table and everyone else gets read-only access. This table can be dropped as part of a Flyway process so sometimes expected that this table may be dropped and recreated e.g. flyway clean If you want extra assurance, we'd suggest enabling SQL Audit or Extended Event to log any writes to that table. This should provide some extra tracking if records are changed and you can trace who made the changes. Triggers could work too, but they’re visible and can interfere with Flyway operations, so generally these are recommended to be avoided unless tampering is a known issue. / comments

Hi Koray Thank you for reaching out via the Redgate forums and sorry to hear about your problem. Can you please confirm the full version of your ANTS program; this can be found in Help > About ANTS Performance Profiler I am looking for specifically the patch number after 11.4.* Looking at our releases there were two releases in the last couple of weeks and one of them has been pulled - if you are on version V11.4.5 can I request you patch into the latest version V11.4.6 and verify if this slowness is still being found Download link available here: https://download.red-gate.com/checkforupdates/ANTSPerformanceProfiler/ANTSPerformanceProfiler_11.4.6.4353.exe / comments

Hi Henry Winkler Thank you for reaching out via the Redgate forum regarding your bulk validation inquiry. If you’re looking to validate a large number of SQL scripts at once, SQL Prompt does include a Bulk Code Analysis feature. This lets you select a folder of SQL files and run all of SQL Prompt’s code analysis rules over them in one go. This can be run through SSMS or via a CLI process. It’s useful for spotting syntax issues, rule violations, and potential problems across a wide codebase without having to open each file individually. [image] That said, it’s worth noting a couple of limitations for your scenario:
Bulk Code Analysis works on SQL files, not directly against database objects in a live database. If your custom objects exist only inside a database, you’d need to script them out first.
The analysis is static, so while it can catch many issues, it won’t always identify broken dependencies caused by schema changes (e.g. views/stored procedures referencing dropped or renamed columns).
For that, you’d typically supplement with SQL Server’s system views (like sys.sql_expression_dependencies) or test recompiling objects against the upgraded schema. Bulk operations in SQL Prompt, including Bulk Code Analysis, require either a SQL Toolbelt Essentials or SQL Toolbelt license. You can find more details here: https://documentation.red-gate.com/sp/features-requiring-a-specific-license/bulk-operations/bulk-operations-in-ssms/bulk-code-analysis / comments

If git works fine from the command line but Flyway Desktop still shows Permission denied (publickey,password), it can mean that the Git client isn’t picking up your SSH setup. A few things you can try:
Force the key at repo level Run this inside your repo folder:
git config --local core.sshCommand "ssh -i C:/Users/<you>/.ssh/id_rsa -o IdentitiesOnly=yes"
Start Flyway Desktop with verbose SSH From the cmdline:
set GIT_TRACE=1
set GIT_SSH_COMMAND=ssh -vvv -i C:\Users\<you>\.ssh\id_rsa -o IdentitiesOnly=yes
Then launch Flyway Desktop from the same CMD and try Fetch. The -vvv verbose level 3 log will show whether your key is being offered.
Use an SSH config alias Create C:\Users\<you>\.ssh\config with:
Host mygit
HostName <ip-or-host>
User <ssh-user>
IdentityFile C:/Users/<you>/.ssh/id_rsa
IdentitiesOnly yes
Then set your remote to that alias:
git remote set-url origin <ssh-user>@mygit:/path/to/repo.git
Check your agent Make sure the key is loaded:
ssh-add -l
ssh -T <ssh-user>@<ip>
Hopefully one of these steps helps you get some traction with your Flyway project pulling from your git server / comments

Hi Don, Sorry to hear this is repeating for you. Up until now I was only aware of this being an initial concern when first installing SQL Prompt into SSMS21. Does it reoccur after patching SQL Prompt, or at different times? / comments
