Cluster Dashboard: Customize
-
Customize the Cluster Dashboard to suit the way you monitor your cluster: keep the widgets you use, remove those you do not, and size and position the rest for the clearest possible view.
-
You do this by adding, removing, resizing, repositioning, and configuring widgets.
-
Hovering over a widget's top bar reveals the controls for resizing and removing it, and, on some widgets, for configuring it.

Customizing the dashboard
Removing and sizing a widget
Hovering over a widget's top bar reveals a remove button and a resize toggle.
-
Remove
Click the remove button (the recycle bin) to remove the widget from the dashboard.
Removing a widget is reversible: you can add it back using the Add widget window. -
Resize
Click the resize toggle to expand the widget to its full size, and toggle it back to collapse the widget.
Configuring a widget
A settings gear appears on the top bar of the widgets that have configurable options. Click it to open the widget's settings.
For example:
-
The Storage widget offers Scale drive size.
When off, every node's bar is drawn at the same width.
When on, each node's bar is sized in proportion to its drive's capacity, so you can compare drive sizes across nodes: the largest drive fills the full width, and smaller drives get shorter bars.
-
The IO Stats widget can show separate read and write graphs for IOPS and Throughput.
Adding a widget
To add a widget, click the + button at the bottom-right corner of the dashboard.
This opens the Add widget window.
The widgets you can add appear in color, and the widgets already on the dashboard are grayed out and cannot be selected. Click a widget to add it, or click Add All to add every widget.
