Performance Dashboard for SQL Server 2008

  • Does anyone know if there is a performance dashboard for SQL server 2008 or if it is possible to use Performance Dashboard for SQL Server 2005 on SQL Server 2008? We are using SQL 2008 on a Windows Server 2008.

    thanx in advance

  • You can use the 2005 dashboard, but there are a few problems.

    I had a couple of times that a report gave an error the first time I used it, but after a refresh it did work. See also this article about a change in the usp_Main_GetCPUHistory procedure.

  • Have you tried it your self?

    I installed it in my development environment and as i can see there are some defects in the setup script that creates the functions used by the reports.

    Thank you for your help! It works after modifying the setup.sql script as mentioned in your blog.
