Thank you all who participated on mapping refinement in New config report summary columns
Here is the result:
- We are dropping the “other” summary column.
- The three summary columns are: changed, unchanged, failed.
- Let’s add a new table column on the report index page (thus also host detail - table pane) next to the summary field named “Major keywords”. This column can show some keywords (user configurable via settings) that can be interesting. Typical keywords I would expect there: PuppetNoop, PuppetCorrectiveChanged, PuppetSkipped or PuppetRestarted. For Ansible these would include: AnsibleUnreachable, AnsibleIgnored or AnsibleSkipped. EDIT: After chat with Maria we thought it would be more intuitive just to show Keywords column with nothing when there are no keywoard or number with number of keywords with some interactivity.
Here is my further feedback on the UX design of the host detail pages:
- On each of the detail page (Ansible/Puppet) we whould show the three summary counters as well as tool-native counters (aka metrics). Ansible has: ok, changed, failures, unreachable, rescued, ingored, skipped. Puppet has: corrective_change, skipped, restarted, failed_to_restart, scheduled and out_of_sync.
