Ability to not create additional interfaces seen by Sflow.

With traditional NetFlow, there is an option in cluster manager to "Not create Ingress/Egress records". This limits the interfaces created by the NMS to only those interfaces forwarding flows. This option does not exist or work for Sflow. If you a...

Variable drop down at the top of a report should be assignable to effect specific widgets or all but a specific widget on the report.

Functionality exists in competing product Grafana, which GTS is trying to migrate from to SevOne-Data Insight. Customer needs the variable drop downs on a report to effect all sections but then when a second variable drop down is selected that sec...

Support configurable duration for DFA and RSD Slope-based Policy Conditions

The current fixed duration for DFA and RSD is too short to include Triggering on longer persistent behavior, like low Slope (e.g., flatlining when not at 0% or 100% utilization) Supporting up to the standard 2-hour duration setting would improve t...

Report "One-Shot" Mode.

Support a Report mode where each Section will populate once, and then not refresh when the user navigates between Sections, unless the user specifically requests a refresh, or edits the Report, requiring a refresh. The use case here is large Repor...

DI Report Section Navigation - Manage when section count overflows the browser/screen width

To avoid splitting related content into additional Reports, a more intuitive way to visually support more Report Sections than fit in the browser width is needed. Current "scroll-wheel" functionality is not intuitive and not portable among differe...

DI When adding Widget, Data settings are lost if the user navigates to another configuration tab before pressing Run.

Content creators lose time if they forget to press Run after selecting a list of Resources when creating.or modifying a Widget, and then navigate away from the Data configuration tab. Even saving a Report that has not been Run one time will lose a...

DI Default Permissions to Public/ReadOnly when a "Template Report" is created.

Report Templates created today default to Public/ReadWrite, which allows ANY user to modify them. While this may make sense in very small deployments, larger organizations that use DI need to control who updates shared directional content like Tem...

Today Palo Alto Firewalls running in HA mode can be monitored via OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.25461.2.1.2.1.11 to see their current state of HA. The values returned are strings and can be "disabled", "active", or "passive" Other vendors like F5 have used inte...

Flow reporting should have the options to be more device agnostic and have more dynamic selection capabilities, other than the selection of filters that are done within the widget definition.

The ideal option would be a pop-up selection window (selecting something where the variables are currently placed). Provides options such as: 1. Select a client/server role and then select from a list such as a network segment or host grouping tha...

Use DNS lookup in SevOne-fix-hosts-file

The SevOne-fix-hosts-file script currently uses SSH to get the hostname of each server in the cluster. In a large cluster, this script can take 2-3 hours to complete. Changing from a repetitive SSH to a DNS lookup cuts down the time considerably.
