The Block Recommendations tab of the Server Settings window lists all available SQL Doctor recommendations and indicates whether they are blocked. This list is server-specific, and can be customized per your unique diagnostic needs.

To reduce analysis "noise," consider blocking recommendations for changes that you do not plan to make in your environment. Blocking a recommendation removes the recommendation from all future analyses results for this registered instance.
