Re: [one-users] Request for comments: Sunstone dashboard
Hi Carlos, I think it would be nice to to see some more white labeling features/options where one does not need to directly modify the code of sunstone. For example the OpenNebula App Market title on the app market page does not make sense when someone uses its own appmarket server. Just some small details... functionality, easy-of-use, and speed are of course more important. Regards M.L.

Quoting Carlos Martín Sánchez (cmar...@opennebula.org): Dear community, As you may know if you tried the beta release, we are doing a facelift to Sunstone.

We'd appreciate your comments on what information you would like to see in the dashboard, for both admins and regular users. I've been discussing this with a collegue of mine. We have some ideas on improving the Dashboard. It might be more than a facelift though, but we think it would make the dasyboard more useful than it's now. Here we go: - Make it interactive Currently it's a static page with graphs being updated every $update_interval. It would be nice to be able to click Storage, Users, Network, Hosts, Virtual Machines and get there right away. This will save you at least one click. - Drill down funtionality The dashboard could function as a gateway to a (new) Statistics page. Clicking on for example Virtual Machines would give you all relevant information about VM statistics. Clicking on an individual vm on that page would give you all relevant info about that particular machine. With all statistics for this vm nicely organized (network, disk, cpu, mem, etc.). - Add Virtual Datacenter / Resource groups Would be nice to have stats/quota info on these as well. - Add quota / accounting I would definately add quota and accounting info. Especially for users and VDC admins this will be useful info. Instead of having absolute numbers, like 2.1 TB used storage, a (VDC) / oneadmin would like to know how close he is to limits. 2.1 TB of used storage might be 1% of capacitiy, but if that would mean datastores are 95% full the (VDC) / oneadmin definately wants to take action immediately. Elaborating on this: It would be nice to get an (overall) cloud health. All resources below thresholds would give green light, all the way up to red (resources exceeding critical thresholds). This would definately make it dashboard like and cloud managers will love it ;). Our 2 cents. Gr.
