Database Performance Analyzer (DPA) Feature Requests

Ability To Compare Custom Time Periods
It would be handy to easily compare 2 time periods against each other. e.g. Pick Last week Monday & this week Monday and see how the graphs compare hour by hour but with the same scale. Currently each day would have it's own scale so they're hard to compare
DPA Integration should have an edit button instead of requiring removal
We reset the password for the account we were using for our DPA integration, but there is no option to update the existing integration. We could only remove it and lose all the custom relationships we had in place. Closed as duplicate - please vote for
Create Alerts Based on DPA Recommendations
Create alerts based on DPA recommendations. Example: If a DPA recommendation shows a 75% or greater performance increase if "X" is completed, then alert someone. Such as adding an index or defragmentation.
Hide the VM Config for select users.
Would be a great feature if the VM Config of servers could be hidden from select users. If a customer has a multi-tenant environment and does not want select users to see the VM Config of other clients.
Granular access contorl to Databases / server instnaces , reports
Right now there is no provision for controlling access to specific databases in a an instance and reports , alerts . It would be a nice to have feature.

An example would be searching for similar named databases. The feature request I would like to see is a…
DPA API - Change "repositoryTableSpace" Default Behavior
Hey Thwack Community, When using the "Register and unregister" REST method in the DPA API, the default behavior for the JSON value "repositoryTableSpace" is to mirror the "Default Value" in the DPA advanced options for "Default_Tablespace", which means this value will always be blank/null. (Options --> Administration -->…
DPA API - New Oracle Database - Add Registration Options
Hey Thwack Community, The DPA API allows for registration of new databases successfully, but only for the "Direct Connect" method when registering a new Oracle database. I would also like to have the option to do "TNS Connect Descriptor" or "LDAP or TNS Name" options. Currently we are using the API, but I then have to do a…
Group individual statements/batches in stored procedures
It is nice to report on the execution characteristics of all the statements/batches in a stored procedure. The individual hashes have to be selected. We make this a little easier by our naming convention. The first part of the name identifies the procedure and the last part contains the statement begin and end positions.…
