- The pool list is a card per pool, two to a row, as the host
Overview's Hardware and Software cards: its name with Active or
Stopped and Autostart badges in the header, then its type, its path
(an RBD pool's Ceph pool), its volume count and its space as the
Overview shows it (computes/pool_bar.html, without the name again);
a stopped pool's space is unavailable, not zero.
wvmStorages.get_storages_info gives the path, autostart and percent
used, which computes.views.host_pools computed for itself.
- A pool's page has a Space card (percent, used of size, of what: the
filesystem of its path, its volume group or the Ceph cluster, which
other pools may share; free) and a Pool card (state, autostart,
type, path) instead of a two-column list mixing facts and forms.
Start or Stop is its heading's button; autostart and deleting a
stopped pool are in its menu; the confirmations stay.
- The volume table drops the row number; a volume's capacity and what
it has allocated share a column hidden on a phone; its format is a
badge; its actions are one group, Clone and a menu with Delete,
named for the volume.
- "New pool", "New volume" and "Upload ISO" are labelled buttons
instead of bare green pluses; their dialogs' titles name them.
- The New pool dialog is one form (design reviewed with Codex): the
pool's type as radio cards, as the VM create page chooses its disk
source (their style moves to webvirtcloud.css), one name, and only
the chosen type's fields, the others hidden and disabled.
- A directory's or a share's mount path follows the name
(/var/lib/libvirt/<name>) until it is edited: no default path of
another pool any more.
- ISO images is a directory preset named iso; when the host has an
iso pool, a card links to it instead.
- Ceph offers the host's Ceph secrets by their names, not every
secret by UUID; without one it says so and links the Secrets page.
- LVM asks to agree that the device is erased, the server too.
- AddStgPool checks each type's fields, a name or a path another
pool has, an RBD secret that is not one of the host's Ceph secrets,
and the names "." and "..". A refused pool, or one libvirt refuses,
opens the dialog again with what was entered, the reasons beside
the fields and focus on the first; the audit row for a taken name
stays.
- Totals above the list: hosts connected of all, VMs running of all,
vCPUs given on the CPUs, memory given of the memory of the hosts the
panel reads, as cards; the connected count is red while a host is
not.
- A host's name links its overview; its state is a Connected or Not
connected badge (the dot goes), beside a badge of how the panel
reaches it (TCP, SSH, TLS, Socket); its address in monospace.
- A VMs column: the host's VMs, linked to its Instances, and how many
run.
- The vCPUs have a bar like the memory's: running VMs' and shut-off
VMs' vCPUs against the CPUs, amber over 2:1 and red over 4:1 as the
ratio is; the overview's vCPU card shares it.
- The three coloured buttons of each row are one menu: Overview, Edit
connection and Remove from panel (its popper fixed, as the table's
scrolling box would cut it off).
- The four green add buttons are one "Add host" menu that says what
each kind of connection is.
- The table is table-hover; a host the panel cannot reach has a
table-warning row.
libvirt measures a pool's size and free space only when the pool is
refreshed and keeps those figures until the next refresh. The pool
lists read them without a refresh, so they showed a pool's space as of
whenever libvirt last refreshed it: two hosts sharing one pool's
storage told different free space for it, each its own refresh's. On a
test host, a 1 GiB file left libvirt's free space unchanged while df
showed 1 GiB less, until the pool was refreshed.
get_storages_info refreshes each active pool before reading it; a
refresh libvirt refuses (while a volume is cloned in the pool) leaves
the last figures, as the pool pages already do. A refresh scans the
pool's volumes, so pools are read only where one host's are shown: a
host's overview (views.host_pools, its Storage card) and its Storages
page and API. The Computes list and the new-VM dialog's host lines,
which read every host at once, no longer show pools; Compute.capacity
is the vCPUs and memory given.
The memory given read "24.0 GB given of 32.0 GB": long, and the share
of the host's memory, what one looks for, had to be worked out. It is
now told as the vCPUs are: the share large ("75 %", amber over 90 %,
red over 100 %), then "24.0 GB / 32.0 GB", the bar and "12.0 GB
running". The Computes list's memory column shares it.
Every card of the overview has a Bootstrap card-header with an icon:
VMs, vCPUs, Memory, Storage, CPU in use and Memory in use (with the
current reading at its right), Hardware, Software and connection. The
last two were label and value lists under indented headings; they are
list-group-flush rows now, the label at the left, the value at the
right: counts in semibold, the hypervisor's and libvirt's versions as
badges, the guest architectures as light badges, the emulator and the
connection as code. The section headings, indented by the panel's
page-header margin unlike the cards, are gone: each card names itself.
The status line and notes are not paragraphs, which the panel indents.
A host the panel could not reach made its overview the 500 page,
without the host's sections, and the Computes list gave such a host an
Overview button that led nowhere. The page now keeps the host's name,
sections, "Edit connection" and "Remove from panel" (the existing
confirmation), and says "Not connected" with the reason and a "Try
again". Details that cannot be read are said in an alert; the VMs,
capacity and load still show, as they are read on their own.
A reachable host's page leads with what it runs and what it gave:
- its VMs by state (running, shut off, paused, other), linked to
Instances;
- the vCPUs, memory and storage pools given, as on the Computes list,
which now shares those parts (computes/capacity_*.html) and their
preparation (views.shown_capacity) with it;
- CPU and memory in use, side by side, with the current reading in
words, a note on what the charts hold and when they were last
updated, or since when not; memory in GB like the rest of the page;
- Hardware and Software and connection: logical CPUs and clock from
virNodeGetInfo, but physical cores, sockets and NUMA nodes counted
from the CPUs of the capabilities' NUMA cells, as virNodeGetInfo
makes a topology up for hosts it cannot describe (asymmetric NUMA);
the hypervisor's own name and version, libvirt, emulator, the guest
architectures as text instead of menus of dead links. A host without
sysinfo shows no processor instead of failing.
Empty notes no longer show "None"; labels stack over their values on a
phone instead of running into them.
Pools that cannot be read no longer drop a host's vCPUs and memory from
its capacity: the storage part says so. get_capacity also counts the
VMs by state.
