Filtering
...
and Sorting
SQL Inventory Manager offers different ways of sorting and filtering the listed instances/servers, for further information refer to Filtering and Sorting
On the left side of the Discovered Instances view you have the option for filtering instances by Minor Version or Major Version. If you want to filter by specific versions, select them from this section.
Creating a useful filter to "weed out" unnecessary information takes time but is important when managing large environments. As a result, you may want to save that filter for future use. IDERA SQL Inventory Manager now allows you to save filters for use in the Explorer and Instances views. Simply create the filter, and then click Save as Explorer favorite or click Save as Instances favorite, depending on which view you are in when creating the filter. To use that filter, click Load Explorer favorite or click Load Instances favorite.
Enable or disable the option Apply filter as it changes depending if you want to see the changes as you apply the filters, or if you prefer to select your filters first and see the results when you finish.
