While in group edit mode, default search bar to return results within the group

When you navigate to Settings > Groups > searchbar > (search query), you get returned results from the total inventory of that entity type. Often times you need to edit the pre-existing group from a sparse collection of VMs, so it would b...

Integrate certificate import / update ability in to UI

Today if a user override a parket VM, they can choose between a end date or a number of hours. But someone with bad intentions can override for 1 year or 999 hours for instance. The admin should have a way to put limit on each override, like 2 hou...

Use Groups to schedule a Park action

The Park action currently only allows filtering by Name and Region/Tag, with Groups (turbonomic-settings) not being a selectable filter option at this time. Park using Groups would make more sense

Action Center/Actions tab doesn't allow sorting by unique system data

Breakout list of user-defined policies into entity type to match the list provided in the group management UI

Current groups are broken out by VM, Account, DB, etc. In policies they are only grouped by imported, user defined, etc. Would be more useful to add sub sections by policy type: VM, Volume, etc.

Under the name allow for a short description to be added to explain why that particular group or policy needed to be created. This could then be displayed in the list of those object types for quick viewing. Example1: This group used to isolate th...
