Hi,
Currently, oVirt is intelligent to understand the relationship
hierarchies of various entities in the system, and even allows setting
permissions based on this hierarchy. Can this information further be
used to enhance the health monitoring of various entities in the system?
Let me take an example.
Consider this hierarchy (gluster):
System -> Cluster -> Volume -> Brick
If one or more bricks of a volume are down, which indicates a problem,
following entities should be overlaid with a warning symbol (say, a
yellow exclamation mark)
- Volume to which the brick(s) belong(s)
- it's parent cluster
- System
This helps in highlighting what parts of the system are affected by
failures/problems at the lowest level entities, and gives a better idea
of the overall health of the entire environment to the administrator.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Shireesh
