  1. As an IT Infrastructure Manager, I want to schedule PRTG sensors to run at specific times using our local system time (not UTC), so that I can align monitoring activities with our business hours, maintenance windows, and operational schedules without having to calculate time zone conversions.

  2. As a Storage Administrator, I want to add and monitor LUNs with an empty or unset comment field using the LUN v2 sensor in PRTG, so that monitoring coverage is not blocked by optional metadata and I can ensure complete visibility and SLAs across all storage volumes.

    Problem / Context:
    In many storage environments, the comment/description attribute of a LUN is optional and frequently left blank (e.g., when provisioned by automation or 3rd‑party workflows).
    When I attempt to add a LUN v2 sensor for such a LUN, PRTG fails with the error: “Das abgefragte Feld comment ist leer.” (“The queried…

  3. As an IT Infrastructure Manager migrating from Dell EMC Unity to Dell PowerStore storage systems, I want native PRTG sensors for PowerStore monitoring (equivalent to current Unity sensors) plus dedicated replication health monitoring, so that I can maintain comprehensive storage visibility without manual REST API configuration.

    PRTG has a lot of useful sensors for the Dell EMC Unity storage, which we are glad to have. Unfortunately Dell announced their end of sale in August 2025 and for the first hardware generation their end of service in July 2026.

    The successor to Unity is the PowerStore storage system. Unfortunately the only…

  4. As a Network Engineer monitoring network infrastructures with GRE tunneling, I want the sFlow sensor to sample GRE (IP protocol 47) traffic so that I can gain complete visibility into all network traffic flows, including tunneled traffic. Currently, PRTG sFlow sensor only samples UDP and TCP traffic.

  6. As a Cloud/ DevOps engineer, I want to have sensors for Google Cloud Platform (GCP) similar to those available for Azure, so that I can monitor and manage my GCP infrastructure with the same level of visibility and control that I have for Azure environments.

  7. As a Systems Engineer, I want to retain multiple historical debug results, when the option "Result Handling -> Store result" is enabled in the HTTP Data Advanced sensor settings, so that I can compare different responses over time without losing debugging information between sensor scans. For now only the last result is stored.

  8. As a Systems Engineer managing servers with outbound-only connectivity, I want HTTP Push Data Advanced sensors to gracefully resume monitoring after maintenance windows by using the most recent push data received during the pause, so that I don't get false alarms and can maintain accurate monitoring continuity during planned maintenance.

  9. As a Systems Engineer managing multiple servers with multiple disk volumes, I want to configure disk space threshold triggers that apply to ANY partition across servers in a group so that I can efficiently monitor disk space without spending weeks manually configuring individual partition thresholds.

  10. User Story:
    As a Network Administrator managing critical infrastructure,
    I want SNMP Trap Receiver sensors to maintain persistent alarm states until problems are resolved,
    so that I don't miss critical issues that are only reported once via SNMP traps

    Acceptance Criteria:
    - SNMP Trap Receiver sensors can maintain error states until problems are actually resolved, not just until the next scan interval.
    - Users have multiple ways to clear persistent trap alarms (automatic clear traps, manual reset, or timeout).
    - The persistent state feature can be enabled/disabled to maintain compatibility with existing monitoring setups.
