    Provide self-service capability within VMware for snapshot protection, integrated into the vCloud Director portal, providing flexibility to backup and restore VMs, vApps and file level restores.

    Currently there is no mechanism to failover public (or PSN) IP addresses between vDCs, to redirect traffic between 2 vDCs in a DR failover situation. Global Site Selection via DNS or manual DNS changes could be used to redirect traffic between 2 vDCs with different public IPs, but these options do have limitations (DNS caching etc).

    It would be useful to be able to advertise the same IP address/range from 2 different vDCs with BGP preferences plus interface tracking or health checks used to identify the preferred site and update the routing accordingly.

    Thanks

    Could we please have access to be able to use VEEAM for vCloud, this would enable us to backup servers larger than 2Tb that currently isn't supported by the UKCloud snapshot backups.

    Curently we have 2-3 customers that would benefit from this.

    Having just had to reset my "ideas" password, please can you consider integrating the authentication between this site and the main customer portal?

    We are looking at ways of providing an additional level of security to protect workloads on UKCloud by offering an integrated VM encryption and key management.

    If this is something you'd like to see, vote up this idea and add your thoughts and comments.

    We're currently investigating how we can improve the service reports that we provide in the UKCloud Portal. As part of that process, we have a few questions that will help us understand how you currently use those reports:
    • For what purpose do you use the reports?
    • Which team within your organisation are the reports most useful for?
    • Does the information provided within the reports suit the requirements of the data needed by that team?
    • Are there any aspects of the service that you use that you would like to see represented in the reports that are not currently there?
    Thanks for your help.

    It would be useful to have a record of activities performed in the Portal for auditing purposes.

    It would be useful to have a PDF version of Knowledge Centre articles.

    Would like to be able to query UKCloud platform status via an API so that we don't need to physically go to the status page.
