----------------------------------------
Summary: Metrics: Add a global setting to enable/disable Metrics
view
Key: CLOUDSTACK-9699
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-9699
Project: CloudStack
Issue Type: Improvement
Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
Components: UI
Affects Versions: 4.9.0, 4.8.0, 4.7.0
Reporter: Rashmi Dixit
Assignee: Rashmi Dixit
Fix For: 4.9.1.0
The Metrics view for each type of entity basically fires APIs and calculates
required values on the client end. For e.g. to display memory usage etc at the
zone level, it will fetch all zones. For each zone it will fetch
pods->cluster->host->VMs
For a very large Cloudstack installation this will have a major impact on the
performance.
Ideally, there should be an API which calculates all this in the backend and
the UI should simply show the values. However, for the time, introduce a global
setting called enable.metrics which will be set to false. This will cause the
metrics button not to be shown on any of the pages.
If the Admin changes this to true, then the button will be visible and Metrics
functionality will work as usual.
