Allow for local administrative login while utilizing SSO/MFA

When using MFA/SSO with Turbonomic it will only allow for login via that MFA/SSO provider. If something changes or the login no longer functions, it is then impossible to access the Turbonomic UI. I believe it would be a good idea to leave some so...

Possibility to configure ulimits of instana containers (docker-based on-premise setup)

We recently had an issue with the max amount of open files per container. The Instana support told us, that there is currently no option to configure that. We'd love to configure that for specific containers in the settings.hcl file.

Customer requests that the networking portion of the Turbonomic supply chain show some data in the supply chain
