Current Events View - Add Event Counters At Top #60

Open kdreyer opened 10 years ago

kdreyer commented 10 years ago

This is a suggestion for the top of the "Current Events" view, e.g. https://sensu-server01.contegix.com/monitoring/events

At the top, just below the header "Current Event Status" but above the drop down that allows you to select the types of alerts to view and how many to show on the page (or wherever else it might look good while still staying out of the way.)

Have some simple counters that has counts for: Number of Critical Alerts Number of Warning Alerts Number of Unknown Alerts Total Number of Alerts (which is also already shown at the bottom of the page.)

Other possible counters: Number of Alerts in past 24 hours Number of Alerts older than 24 hours

That may make it easier for the NOC tech to notice new alerts in there without having to do any scrolling or remembering the title of the most recent alert they already checked out. Also handy for shift leads just quickly checking on the status of things.

Might also be something you may want to consider incorporating into the overall header/navigation bar instead so the info is always available. E.g. the top line with the main menu options for "Home Events Hosts Failures Checks Stashes" and the drop down menus on the top right. To save space you could use acronyms or small icons to represent the count types, and use a mouse-over tooltip to show the full name.
