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...

Custom scheduling of instana alert

Custom scheduling of alerting is not available - like volume monitoring alerts to be scheduled only for week days, this will be useful to schedule the alerts only for the required time and ignore false alerts

To apply a common filter to all the charts in a instana dashboard

At present we don't have option to add multiple tabs in a single instans custom dashboard, it will be hard to monitor by adding more number of charts within a same dashboard

When creating a volume scaling policy I want to be able to easily select groups for the policies in the same way as the VM policies work.

Currently I have to use a regex expression to include all the groups that the policy applies to. This is highly inconvenient as every time I want to add a new group to the policy I have to construct a new regex expression.

The customer needs to have Cloudera metrics

We think could be better to have Cloudera monitoting in the "Platform" section because Cloudera links a lot of other infrastructure metrics below.

Have a way to duplicate a Group (from the GUI) into a new Group with a different name
