- New option for importing lists of SQL Server instances for registration.
- The auto-registration process has been improved to allow users specify which SQL Server editions will be automatically monitored.
Reporting
- View inventory reports grouped by server attributes and annotations.
- Capability to export and print server inventory and health check recommendation reports as needed.
New Views
