MySQL Session Manager

In the Session Manager window, you can keep track of all current processes in a database. It displays a table view of each process parameter, including the id, user, host, database, command, time, state, and info.

Server configuration

The View Server Variables functionality, which is built in dbForge Studio for MySQL, allows you to view and modify the MySQL system and status variables. System variables indicate how a MySQL server is configured. Some of them can be changed dynamically when the server is running. Status variables provide information about MySQL server operations.
