The VMware Target should have the check box just like the Dynatrace Target (Collect Tag Information)

Right now if the same tag comes in from VMware and the APM target you're going to get duplication. Let the customer decide if they want the duplication. I recommend that the default value is YES. The other option is to have smart logic choosing wh...

CPU Socket adjustment.

client: " I’d like to have Turbo always set the number of CPU sockets to 2, and to adjust the cores per socket # to modify the # of vCPUs when RightSizing. Currently this is accomplished with a custom script. I would like this configurable on at t...

Dollar value for on-prem scaling - just like Cloud. Each action has a saving/cost to it.

The customer would like Turbo to put a price tag on each action. They want to be able to tell how much adding vMem or vCPU or a combo. to a VMware VM costs. The customer is aware that it depends on a bunch of things (cost/hr of host, cost/hr of da...

Allow to be build a policy to generate VM delete action for VM being idle for a defined number of days or VM delete actions or at least a list of VMs probably no longer used (minimal CPU usage, no networktraffic, etc.)

Based on Idea TURBO-I-450 (meature and display days a VM is being idle) please allow to set a policy to generate delte actions for VMs beiing idle for x days. In addition to that, allow to set a policy as it is available with all the cloud optimiz...

Include VIO Servers in the PowerVM support

I think it is important to support VIO Servers in the PowerVM support. At least add an option to allow the user to include VIO Servers. We used to have data/recommendations for VIOS when we were using Densify, so we knew we need to right-sized the...
