Spectrum Protect Plus User Experience Enhancements

User enhancement requests for Spectrum Protect Plus

Make the dashboard interactive i.e. ability to drill down into the protection summary, the unprotected summary, failed jobs and running jobs.

Make the dashboard customisable. All data accessible via reports should be possible to add as a view in the dashboard.

Add dynamic alerting i.e. if a job fails or succeeds it should be possible to notify a user or all users.

Add ability to easily show which VMs are stored under each SLA i.e. if a VM has been removed form an SLA but still contains data this is difficult to see.

Add backup storage utilisation per VM as a report.

Add the ability to deploy VADP proxies from the product rather than have to manually deploy.

Setup an enablement for catalog file metadata as an auto option i.e. script requirements on a VM so if a user with rights is assigned this pre-script can be run to enable the cataloging of file metadata and therefore the file restore option which is one of the most powerful parts of the product if enabled.

Add ability to add logo to reports and UI.

    This request may not be delivered within the release currently under development, but the theme is aligned with the current multi-year strategy. IBM may consider and evaluate any RFE Community feedback for this request through activities such as voting. IBM will update this request in the future.

    It would also add a very very clear information about partial or completed backup. For example, if you have 100 VMs in a SLA, it is confusing and cumbersome to know what VMs have finished ok and what are finished with partial status.
