SQL Server Custom Reports
SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) Information Custom Reports
SSMSInfoReports is a collection of custom .rdl reports that enhance SQL Server Management Studio’s built‑in reporting features. They offer a consolidated, visual way to inspect SQL Server instances without the need to run multiple manual queries.
The package includes 18 reports designed to give a rapid, comprehensive overview of an instance and its databases, making it easier to answer key diagnostic questions when assessing a new server or environment.
While the default SSMS reports are helpful, they do not provide this level of summary detail and often omit advanced information that is only accessible through custom queries. Using reports instead of raw queries also brings practical advantages, such as the ability to export or print results.
SSMSInfoReports delivers a fast, graphical snapshot of configuration, storage, backups, SQL Agent jobs, security, performance, and more, offering far greater depth than the standard SSMS reports. The full set is available on GitHub and can be executed directly within SSMS.
Reports information:
- Server information : version, edition, build, os platform, hardware, services, configuration options, memory configuration, security, etc…
- Storage : disk allocated, file sizes and allocation for all databases
