Sort and Group Policy List

When viewing any particular entity or scope, the list of policies on the Policy tab is a randomly sorted randomly named list. Since a majority of these policies are automatically being generated by Turbonomic based on cloud provider constraints, it would be more useful to prioritize a list of just customer created (manually generated) policies separate from the automated policies. Manually generated policies often are the source of self-inflicted anomalies are the primary list of policies used for troubleshooting the proposed actions.

    Hi Jeremy, Yes that categorization is exactly what is needed, but it's needed when viewing the list of Policies on a specific entity or group. If I'm looking at a VM, or custom group, the policies tab is a randomly sorted list (some we created, some the tool is creating.) Typically the user-created policies are the ones applicable to troubleshooting a problem. If those were listed first and the autogenerated policies listed second, that would make it much easier to review. As an example, I just randomly picked an EC2 to refresh my memory, and it had 14 policies applied. 6 of which are from Turbonomic but mixed throughout the list.

    On that entity's Policy tab it would look like:

    Entity Policies

    • User Defined Policies

    • Imported Policies

    Thank you for taking the time to submit this idea! There is already a 'User Defined Automation Policies' section that you can scope to on the Policies management page; can you help me understand what's different about what you're requesting?
