Host Details Page Redesign - Survey

Hello all!

Following the puppet extraction process (making it optional) the host details page needs an update. As part of the initial phase in moving towards an upgrade to Patternfly 4, we want to take this opportunity to redesign the Host Detail page to better serve users needs.

We would like to receive your perspective on the current page and your thoughts on a future page. You are more than welcome to share your thoughts and ideas by filling the following survey

Thank you for your cooperation!
