Hi Samuel,<br>
<br>
I just had a discussion with Walter. We found that we need up to two
navigation levels under Host. The third navigation level however is
not always required. <br>
Please have a look at the two attached proposals to understand our
requirements.<br>
<br>
Kind regards<br>
Jan and Walter<br>

changing the second-level navigation to tabs instead of
panel areas? If so should we merge Hosts and Admin tab in
one page and collapse the panels like old-ui behavior (maybe
keeping the dashboard statistics on top unchanged) but with
new-ui styles OR add two new tabs to the toolbar?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

pages can’t be merged in one tab is because if all panels
were collapsed, the page height would be around 3757 pixels.
If admin items were hidden, it would be around 2108 tall. I
believe we would have to set the accordions to hide other
items when one item is collapsed. They don’t seem that tall
in the PDF because the images were resized.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

lang="EN-US">I believe we have to study this following a
“mobile-first” approach because once we all agree with the
new design, even if we don’t include the mobile design in
2.0 release, we’ll have to keep some markup ready for
responsive design to receive the new styles. I think this
new tab design would need some updates in tab-ext.xml and
the JS files before 2.0 release, assuming other people or
teams would start developing new plugins from 2.0 and on. If
we update how the tabs are built in the UI from 2.0 to 2.1
for instance, that may turn against us with retro
compatibility issues.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Hello Aline,<br>
<br>
I refer to the latest version of the <br>
User Interface Design Specification - Kimchi, 2014-12-23 (aka
UI Design Spec)<br>
which defines the following structure of functionalities:<br>
<br>
<b>Host</b> (second level navigation via panel areas)<br>
Performance (System Statistics)<br>
Basic Information<br>
Repositories<br>
Debug Report<br>
Software Updates <br>
<br>
<b>Guests</b><br>
no second level functionalities<br>
<br>
<b>Templates</b><br>
no second level functionalities<br>
<br>
<b>Storage</b><br>
no second level functionalities<br>
<br>
<b>Networks</b><br>
no second level functionalities<br>
<br>
<b>Administration</b> (second level navigation via
collapse/expand)<br>
Firmware Update<br>
SEP Configuration<br>
Power Options<br>
Configuration Backup<br>
Network Configuration<br>
SAN Adapters<br>
Sensor Monitor<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<b><span style="color:#3333FF">Problem Statement</span></b><br>
<br>
We already decided to move all Administration functionalities
to Host (currently not updated in the UI Design Spec).<br>
<br>
We are currently facing the following problems:<br>
1) Host now contains 12 second level functionalities, all
other (Guests, Templates, ...) none.<br>
We need to introduce a second level navigation for Host
other than collapse/expand<br>
2) The navigation bar elements Storage and Network (refering
to Virtualization) also exist in the Host context.
<br>
This might confuse the user.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<b><span style="color:#3333FF">Proposal</span></b><br>
<br>
The described problems can be solved with the following
changes:<br>
<br>
1) Introducing a second level navigation<br>
2) Changing the structure of functionalities as follows:<br>
<br>
<b>Host</b><br>
Performance (System Statistics)<br>
Basic Information<br>
Repositories<br>
Debug Report<br>
Software Updates <br>
Firmware Update<br>
SEP Configuration<br>
Power Options<br>
Configuration Backup<br>
Network Configuration<br>
SAN Adapters<br>
Sensor Monitor<br>
<br>
<b>Virtualization</b><br>
Guests<br>
Templates<br>
Storage<br>
Networks<br>
<br>
<b>Containers (future extension)</b><br>
to be defined<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Let's start a discussion on this.<br>
<br>
Kind regards<br>
Jan<o:p></o:p></p>
