It's really looking great. + +The goal here is that the dash board should work with either one server or several, +and give you an overview of what's going on. Problems that require attention should +be highlighted clearly. You should be able to click in spots to jump either to a +server, a sub-system, a service/container/pod or to the source of a problem. + +The graphs will be correlated across multiple machines, and draggable. Hopefully down +road we'll be using a source of data like [PCP](http://www.performancecopilot.org/) to +gather the data more consistently. Problems will show up on the graphs as clickable. +You can add and remove servers, and we want to show the state of important services/server +applications/pods on those servers. + +Once the basic code has landed, it would be good to tie this into Kubernetes as well. +If running a [Kubernetes](https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/kubernetes) cluster, +and Cockpit is loaded on the master, we should use information from Kubernetes to +populate the dashboard. + +Here are some wireframes, click to expand: + +![Multi server dashboard wireframes](images/navigation-horizontal-2.png) + +[Pull request is here ](https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/1455) diff --git a/content/images/navigation-horizontal-2.png b/content/images/navigation-horizontal-2.png Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..3e1edf0 --- /dev/null +++ b/content/images/navigation-horizontal-2.png |
