Detailed information about a specific cluster
After you click on the cluster in the Cluster column, the Cluster Details page is displayed. You can use the sorting and filtering options on the page to find a specific cluster.
Section or Panel | Description |
---|---|
General details section | General details, such as cluster name and type are displayed. The type is Kubernetes - Cluster. |
Related Information panel | Clicking the links in the Related Information panel displays the other information such as nodes of the cluster and image analysis. |
Summary tab | A quick graphical summary of the CPU, memory, and storage utilization, and pod number of the cluster. Core metrics for the selected entity are displayed as analysis charts, depending on available data. |
Configuration Details tab | The configuration matrix for the selected cluster. |
