Some feedback on SDDC Manager in VCF 4.5.0.
Please can you add an 'acknowledge' option to silence the red/warning and blue/notification banners that keep popping up every few minutes?
I am fed up being blasted with your 'supports subscription' messaging! I know it does and I might explore that option in my own time; I don't need to be nagged constantly.
The 2 red/warnings are just as annoying. They are both complaining that my NSX-T manager DNS and NTP server configurations may not be uniform when they are. You need to fix the detection of both please and/or allow me to silence this noise as well.
Bundle Management page is awful and confusing. I would like to hide bundles that have no relevance to me. I don't use NSX-V so it would be nice to filter these bundles out. I am using VCF 4.5.0, so do I really need to see the VCF 4.4.0 bundles? Same with vCenter Server; I am using VC 7.0.3.01000-20395099, so do I need to see the two previous versions?
Additionally, it would be really helpful to get a current bundle download speed (Mbps) as well as the percentage bar. An estimate on download time would also be really good. Not everyone is on superfast internet connections and knowing the download will be around 3 hours allows me to go do something else whilst waiting.
Finally, adding a sortable release date column on the Bundle Management page would make working out what's new a whole lot easier.
Thanks

Additional feedback on the Add VI Workload wizard.
If on the license selection step there are not enough licenses, please have it rescan the available licenses every few seconds (or add a license rescan button). I opened another SDDC manager session, installed additional vSphere licenses; but the wizard does not pick the new ones up. I had to restart the whole process, which is a real pain in the rear end.
If you could allow the wizard to be saved at any point and resumed later, that would be amazing.
Thx.
