New MySQL System Tray Monitor

If you use the MySQL Administrator then did you know that you have access to the new System Tray Monitor (which beats the traffic lights as standard). You'll find the Monitor exe in C:\\Program Files\\MySQL\\MySQL Administrator 1.0 (obviously if you have changed your install dir then this will need to reflect that).The new monitor has the ability to list all installed MySQL services and their individual statuses. Along with that, per instance you have the following options
  • Configure Instance
  • Start Instance
  • Shutdown Instance
  • etc
It also doubles up as a CPU monitor which is just handy more than anything i.e. seeing your CPU spike when you run a long CF pagep.s. MySQL Administrator update is now available to v 1.0.21
