When the rate of resize is NOT 3 – show the desired end state. – let it be clear that it will take more steps to get to desired state.

If a customer has a Rate of Resize set to 2-Medium then Turbonomic will create an action to take it 25% of the way to the optimal value. And this jump (let’s say 32GB –> 34 GB memory) appears in the Action and Details. The optimal value is 8GB ...

Policies relating to a VM should always show under policies for an entity even if not active - ideally with the related schedule.

If I, a customer, attach a policy schedule to a policy (often by accident instead of an execution schedule) it is not easy to find. I am trying to understand the behaviour of a VM, so I got to that VM and look in the policies tab. I THINK that the...

Rate of Resize should have default of 3 High.

Make the Default Rate of Resize 3-High. Currently for on-prem the rate of resize has a default value of 2-Medium. This means that for both upsize and downsize recommendations – the action suggested is only 25% of the way to the optimal desired state.

I had to explain Memory Increase recommendations in detail last week - and a lot of the confusion was a lack of understanding of the scaling constraints. It would have been really helpful to drive home concepts with context help. Either the letter...

Allow CPUs to be resized based on core count (vs MHz) for Consistent Resize

Currently, consistent resize for HA pairs only recommends adjustment based on MHz. We have vms that are on different hardware, resulting in different recommendations for core count. We have internal requirements for our vms in the same HA group to...
