RELEASE NOTES

Features

• DPFE-2401001 A new function has been added to the analysis area, as well as various smaller search functions within the GUI.

Fixes

• DPFI-2401002 Smaller improvements and bug fixes.

Features

• DPFE-2312001 The license of a V8 service can now be updated from the V8 Desktop Client. The prerequisite for this is that you have imported the V8 service license into the database. A new table is required in the V8 SQL database for this function.
• DPFE-2312002 A search function can be displayed for each data result grid in addition to the auto filter. The search function can be shown or hidden using the ALT + S shortcut.
• DPFE-2312003 A new workflow called TCompare has been added to the V8 Desktop Client. The TCompare function compares recorded transactions to the TSQL command „Uplock“ of the tables used. In the new overview, it is therefore easier to determine which two transactions have accessed the same resource (table). These parallel accesses to tables are usually the cause of a deadlock or a table lock. This workflow requires a new function in the V8 SQL database.
• DPFE-2312004 SQL Server Extended Events Files (LD, BL, DL, Full, User) can now be archived by the V8 Desktop Client.

Updates

• DPUP-2312005 Various third party DLL were updated.

Fixes

• DPFI-2310006 Smaller improvements and bug fixes.

For this purpose, a new dialogue window has been introduced under the menu item Action -> Views -> „Dialog Window „Schedule“. This dialogue allows you to set all options for time-controlled automations that are currently supported by V8 Search XE.
• DPFE-2304006 Through the expansion of the V8 Jobserive, the V8Loader module has also been expanded. The monthly licence key then only has to be saved once in the database. The question for the licence key will not appear for every import of XEvents.
• DPFE-2304007 From this version onwards, the monthly licence key is entered under Option -> Settings -> Data „upload / check monthly licence“.
• DPFE-2304008 A new workflow for starting and stopping all necessary modules for a „live“ tracing has been built into the „Perf Analyzer“ module. Another option is to directly import XEvent files from the „live“ trace into the V8 database.

Fixes

  The bug has been fixed.
• DPFI-2209007 Various small bugs have been fixed in different areas. Some small improvements in the V8 client were also added.

Features

• DPFE-2209005 For the Businees central up to versions 14 the import function for extension has been extended. the extensions can be imported separately to the C/Side objects. The imported ones are completely integrated into the search function of V8 Search XE after the import.
• DPFE-2209006 In order to be able to make better analysis evaluations with V8 Search XE in the future, we have created an area for data archiving in the V8 SQL database. From now on, all archiving tables will be marked with „V8A ….“. The number of tables will be increased in the future to get more detailed information about the performance of Dynamics.

Fixes

• DPFI-2209001 In the „Job Timeline“ function, an error occurred when the target SQL Server is configured „case sensitive“.
  The bug has been fixed.

Updates

• DPUP-2207002 The V8 Search XE job service has been upgraded to 64 bit.

Features

• DPFE-2207003 SQL Server detects deadlocks and resolves them by resetting one of the transactions. In the past few years, we have noticed again and again with various customers that a high number of deadlocks and table locks very often arose in connection with the use of the task queue. To get an overview, we have developed a graphical representation of Dynamics NAV / Business Central tasks in the new V8 Search XE. This graphic is created for the Dynamics Business Central / NAV „Job Queue“ and the jobs defined in the SQL Server Agent.

Fixes

• DPFI-2204002 When changing the SQL Server connection from a dialog window and then updating the data, an error occurred. The bug has been fixed.

  The C/Side objects could not be imported / updated into the new V8 database. The bug has been fixed.

Features

• DPFE-2203001 The focus of this version was the conversion from 32 to 64 bit. The V8 client and most of the Dynamic Link Library (DLL) were renewed.
• DPFE-2203001 The new V8 client requires the .NET Framework 4.8!
• DPFE-2203002 In this version, the user interface has been changed only minimally to improve the behavior of the windows a bit.
• DPFE-2203003 V8 Search XE (version 4) now offers all Dynamics Business Central version 18 or higher the possibility to see table locks „live“. The ability to identify locks in tables is also available for older Dynamics NAV / Business Central. However, retrieving the information about the originator of the table lock is only possible via an advanced workflow in V8 Search XE.

Fixes

• DPFI-2201010 After importing the deadlock xevents files, the number of imported records was incorrectly displayed in the „long durations“ as well. This bug has been fixed.
• DPFI-2201011 When opening the „Perf Analzer“ the tool window „SQL Server Extented Events“ was not opened anymore. This could also not be opened under „Actions -> Tool Window „SQL XEvents“. This error has been fixed.
• DPFI-2201012 In the menu „PERFORMANCE ANALYZER“ the starting and stopping of the XEvents „V8_FullSQL_NAV_Trace“ was not executed when pressing the button „Start (XE -FS)“. This error has been fixed.

Updates

• DPUP-2201001 The setup package (MSI file) for a new installation or an update of V8 Search XE has been revised. In the older versions, after the execution of the MSI file, the license and the public key were copied manually into the installation directory V8 Search XE. After the first start of the client, a dialog opened informing you about the new features and fixed bugs. After that, other required components would be installed and SQL database would be updated. In the future this workflow will be part of the setup routine and will be executed directly from installation.
• DPUP-2201002 In the „Query Parameters“ dialog window, the function for selecting table names has been revised. The function that during the input of the table names the filter immediately became active, proved to be not practicable with larger SQL databases with many Dynamics clients. In the dialog window there is a small arrow in the upper right corner that will provide a filter in the future.

Fixes

• DPFI-2201004 In the system dashboard, no values were displayed in some cases. This bug has been fixed.
• DPFI-2201005 In the Dynamics Table Properties tool window, when selecting SQL Index for AL Extension, only indexes for the base table were displayed. This error has been fixed.

• DPFE-2110006 The V8 services now have the possibility to store the values of the performance counters in the V8 database.

Updates

• DPUP-2110007 The analysis function „LD Table“ (Tab Action) has been changed to more effectively determine whether an index is missing in SQL scripts with a Long Durations (LD).

Fixes

• DPFI-2110001 When importing modified AL objects in Dynamics Business Central into the V8 SQL database, errors occurred. This error has been fixed.
• DPFI-2110002 The system dashboard displayed incorrect values for archived AL source code objects. This error has been fixed.

Fixes

• DPFI-2109001 When opening SQL scripts, errors occur in the query parameter dialog if the SQL Server database is „case sensitive“. To avoid this misbehavior there are two new options in Options under System. Here you can set whether V8 Search XE should consider the setting „case sensitive“ for the SQL server and SQL database.

Fixes

• DPFI-2108009 Unfortunately, older Dynamics NAV (10) versions had problems with the „Dynamics Table Properties“ tool window. This Bug has been fixed.

Fixes

• DPUP-2108006 The configuration of the V8 services are imported into the V8 database.

Fixes

• DPFI-2108007 An error occurred in the „Bad Performance“ document window when pressing the Dashboard link. The Dashboard document window did not open.
  This bug has been fixed.
• DPFI-2108008 The document window „Performance Analyzer“ was completely revised. There were repeatedly inaccuracies in the display for the performance events that were to be monitored. The display was changed from an event-driven counting method (Trigger / Service Broker) to a time-driven display.

Fixes

• DPFI-2105006 When clicking in headers row or sorting the data in a datagrid an error message occurred. This bug has been fixed.

Updates

• DPUP-2105001 In the Dashboard TreeView, the „Dynamics NAV“ folder with the menu item „Objects“ has been removed.
• DPUP-2105002 In the Dashboard TreeView in the General folder, the menu item „XE Profiler Result“ has been removed.

Features

• DPFE-2105003 V8 Performance Toolkit in V8 Search XE
  

  In the future, the „XE Profiler“ module will be renamed to „V8 Performance Toolkit“ (V8PT). The V8 Performance Toolkit (V8PT) is part of V8 Search XE and consists of performance monitoring tools that create detailed performance profiles of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central / NAV ERP applications. This documentation explains both the V8 Performance Recorder (V8PR) and the V8 Performance Analyzer (V8PA).
  

  Components of the V8 Performance Toolkit

  The V8 Performance Toolkit consists of two independent tools: V8 Performance Recorder (V8PR) and V8 Performance Analyzer (V8PA). Basic procedures and a detailed walkthrough can be found in the V8 Search XE Help.
  

  V8 Performance Recorder

  V8PR (V8 Services) is a powerful recording tool that creates records for Event Tracing for Windows (ETW). You can run V8PR from the V8 Search XE user interface or from the command line. V8PR provides built-in profiles that allow you to select the specific events for Dynamics NAV Server instances to be recorded. Alternatively, you can create custom profiles in XML. V8PR can also be accessed and controlled using the V8PRControl API (Application Programming Interface). You can easily generate a recording using the V8PR User Interface (UI). Use built-in recording profiles to analyze table locks (BL), deadlocks (DL), long durations (LD), poor system or application performance, or other SQL Server performance issues associated with Dynamics 365 Business Central or Dynamics NAV. V8PR stores events in the V8 database.
  

  V8 Performance Analyzer

  V8PA is a powerful analysis tool that combines a very flexible user interface with comprehensive features and data tables that can be pivoted and have full text search capabilities.
  

  The new functionality of analyzing event trace data can be executed from the dialog windows „Blockings“ , „Deadlocks“ and „Long Durations“.

• DPFE-2105004 If you move the mouse over a datagrid in a dialog window, the text in the editor changes with the content of the activated cell. There is now the possibility to control this behavior via the button „Cell“.

Fixes

• DPFI-2105005 It was not possible to drag and drop different actions buttons from the review to the dashboard. This bug has been fixed.

Fixes

• DPFI-2104001 There was a problem with displaying html pages in V8 Search XE. This bug has been fixed.

Fixes

• DPFI-2103015 When entering the license key with an english windows version there were problems. This bug has been fixed.

Fixes

• DPFI-2103013 After importing the blocking XEvents, the SQL statements of the blocking process were no longer displayed in the overview. This bug has been fixed.
• DPFI-2103014 When opening the timeline display for the XEvents , the time for the „mintime“ and „maxtime“ was not displayed correctly, so that in the worst case two data sets were not displayed in the overview.

Fixes

• DPFI-2103001 After importing a Full SQL Trace Xevents log, an error occurred when starting the „Full SQL Trace XEvents Transaction“ dialog and entering the transaction number. The error was caused by an arithmetic overflow and has been fixed.
• DPFI-2103010 When scrolling in a „Data Grid“, an undesired effect occurred when you reached the end of the rows. This bug has been fixed.
• DPFI-2103013 Updating the changed AL code objects from Dynamics SQL database to V8 database did not work correctly. This bug has been fixed.

Features

• DPFE-2103002 A new function has been implemented to analyze the T-SQL scripts from the „long durations“. The function consists of two parts it formats all SQL scripts so that they can be executed and measured directly in SSMS Studio. The second part of the function extracts all table names from all T-SQL scripts of the „long durations“. This allows the table names to be analyzed by frequency.
• DPFE-2103003 From now on, the T-SQL scripts can be passed directly to SQL Server Management Studio from the dialog windows using the shortcut Ctrl + F7.
• DPFE-2103004 A function has been added under the menu item Dashboard -> General. The Transaction ID Full SQL Trace function compares the imported „Full SQL Trace“ data with the Blocking, Deadlocks and Long Durations data. If there are any matches of the Transaction ID during this period, they will be displayed in a list. The list will show you whether it is a blocking transaction or a blocked transaction. With the Full SQL Trace Events Transaction function, you can view the complete transaction in the open dialog box. In the dialog window there is a new button under XE Profiler with the name Analysis after pressing the button the detected SQL scripts are marked, which was detected for this transaction as blocking, deadlock or long duration.
• DPFE-2103005 Under the menu item „SQL Database“ -> „SQL Server Database Index“ the function „Index breakdown“ has been changed. The function no longer analyzes the entire database but only a specially specified table.For the parameter „ReportStyle“ please enter the value 0 or 1.

  In the SQL database section there are now some queries that you can filter on special table names. When you start the query and a dialog box with the „SpecifiedTable“
  parameters appears, you can enter the table name or leave the parameter value empty. If you confirm with okay and have inserted a table name, the SQL query will be executed specifically on this table. If you leave the parameter value blank, the SQL query will be executed for the entire database.

  The filtering applies to the following SQL queries:

  • SQL Server Database -> Automatic Statistics Updating
  • SQL Server Database -> Buffer Usage
  • SQL Server Database -> Last time table was accessed
  • SQL Server Database -> Objekt modify
  • SQL Server Database Index -> Simple Redundant Index Query
  • SQL Server Database Index -> Volatile Indexes
  • SQL Server Database Index -> Which Index Is Never Used
  • SQL Server Database Index -> Overall Index Usage Reads
  • SQL Server Database Index -> Index Fragmentation
  • SQL Server Database Index -> Get Fill Factor for all Indexes on Database
  • SQL Server Database Index -> Find Statistics Information
  • SQL Server Database Index -> Fixing SQL Server Fragmentation
  • SQL Server Database Index -> Indexes Script Out

• DDPFE-2103006 From this version of V8 Search XE it is possible to show and hide columns in all dialog windows. Furthermore, there is the possibility to fix columns now.
• DPFE-2103007 From now on, after a new installation of V8 Search XE, when you start the V8 Client for the first time, you will be asked if you want to restore your V8 Client configuration files from a backup. To backup configuration files in the future, open the Settings and navigate to the area under the menu item „Backup Configuration“. Here you have the option to specify a directory. Press the blue button on the left, select a directory and the data will be automatically backed up to the folder.
• DPFE-2103008 Another change was made in the area of the V8 services. In the future, the services will no longer be started or stopped one after the other, but in parallel. During this process, no progress indicator will be displayed in the task area. When a V8 service has finished starting or stopping, you will receive a notification message at the bottom right edge.
  Color blue = „check“,
  Color green = „start“,
  Color red = „stop“.
  If the V8 service cannot be started, you will receive a message.
• DPFE-2103009 Three new tables are added to the database. If you have not run the last update (3.4.2.30221), we recommend that you create a new database.
• DPFE-2103012 A new property has been added to control the behavior of the „Tool Windows“.

Updates

• DPUP-2103011 The V8 Search XE Profiler completely redesigned. The XE Profiler now offers the possibility to view events in parallel.
  In the old version of the XE profiler you could only see the data for either Deadlocks, Blockings or „Long Durations“ via the selected template of the respective event.
  In the new version, only the number of events is displayed. The „SPID Dynamics WinUser“ function is also included in the new profiler. You can still see which Windows user had which SQL Server SPID at a given time.

Fixes

Fixes

• DPFI-2102001 When saving the data from a dialog window into a V8C* table, no data was transferred into the database. This error has been fixed.

Features

• DPFE-2102002 A checkbox for activating a new function has been introduced in the option. This option formats TSQL scripts of type „sp_prepexec“ and „sp_prepexec“ into a performance measurement form that can be listed directly in SSMS. This information helps to analyze queries with bad values.
• DPFE-2102003 Two new views have been added in the „Long Durations“ section. The views help you to analyze which „wait type“ the SQL script has caused.
• DPFE-2101004 The new Performance counters provide information about how well V8 Service is performing. Using monitoring tools such as Windows Performance Monitor, you can use the V8 performance counters to collect data about Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server instances and then use the data to identify conditions that affect performance and make adjustments.

Fixes

• DPFI-2101001 In the dialog windows only max. 1000 records were displayed. This error has been fixed.
