Web interface start page

The Shturval Platform web interface start page provides the following sections:

• Cluster — work with the management cluster and client clusters;
• Platform — manage access rights and cluster infrastructure;
• About — information about third-party components used by the platform.

About #

The About page shows license information, node count, and open-source components used. Please note! If the Worker node or vCPU limit is exceeded, a notification asking you to contact the vendor to change the license package appears on all UI screens.

At the top of the page, a button opens Service Desk, where you can submit a request to the Shturval platform developers. Service Desk also includes a knowledge base where developers publish technical details.

Please note! Service Desk is not available in the Community edition installation. A Telegram channel is available instead, where you can get answers from the development team.

A platform administrator can enable Swagger by clicking Enable Swagger.

If Swagger was enabled earlier, all users can open Swagger from the page.

Platform #

The Platform page shows:

• The Platform access block shows how many system and custom access sets exist in the platform, whether an external user directory is connected, and how many active UI sessions there are. Access rights can be assigned on cluster access management pages.
• The Infrastructure providers block shows how many provider instances are connected.
• The IP address pools block shows how many IP pools are connected and how many free IP addresses are available in the pools.
• Counters for management clusters and management cluster nodes.
• Counters for client clusters and client cluster nodes.
• Links to reports:
  • client cluster resources;
  • platform cluster image analysis;
  • platform security policies.

If monitoring services are connected and running, a button to open the Grafana UI is available:

• The Statistics button is available when the Metrics Visualization module (Grafana) (shturval-dashboards) and Monitoring module. Centralized metrics collection (Victoria Metrics) (shturval-monitoring) services are installed and enabled in the management cluster.
