Does anyone know if there is a way to add additional options to the KPI Base Search Calculation window? I need something more than 15m but less than 24h.

You can customize the calculation window by uploading a KPI base search through $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/SA-ITOA/local/itsi_kpi_base_search.conf.

https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/ITSI/latest/Configure/itsi_kpi_base_search.conf

Add a stanza for your base search and set the alert_period to whatever you want it to be. For example, "45" for 45 minutes. Save and close the file and then restart Splunk software. The search you added should show up on the base search lister page.
