    Primary Keys should allow NOT TRUSTED

    Currently you can create NOT ENFORCED primary keys but the optimizer will then always treat these as trusted. This causes problems when the constraint is violated but a filter includes all PK columns since the engine will return only one row even ...

    I'd like to be able to push alerts from DMC to my central monitoring teams and tool (SquaredUp in my case). Or get an API to get alerts.

    I'm running Data Management Console 3.1.12 to monitor and manage 125 database in our production environment. Today, the only way I found to get database alerts is to schedule a script that reads the alerts from my repository database and puts the ...
