Handling of Alarms

Active Alarms are now shown also after confirming them.
Batch confirming is now possible. 
Dashboard show only active and the last 20 non active alarms for a faster load. 

Widget: "CHART: CPU, Memory and Disk Space of a Node"

With this new widget you can analyze interactively Node metrics on the Dashboard. You can show the following metrics to a Node:

  • CPU (%): CPU utilization on Gateway server
  • Memory (%): RAM utilization on Gateway server, including cache and buffer
  • Disk Space (%): used disc space on Gateway server

You can show data from the last 5, 10 and 30 min.

Widget: "CHART: Display values of a chosen variable for all instances of a service as line chart"

With this new widget you can analyze interactively Service metrics on the Dashboard. You can show the following metrics to a Node:

  • Backend response time (ms) 
  • Frontend response time (ms)
  • Number of Requests
  • Number of Successful Requests
  • Policy Violations
  • Routing Failures 

You can show data from the last 5, 10 and 30 min.

You can add Alarming thresholds for the stages Dev, Test and Prod. 

Widget: "CHART: Display values of a chosen variable for all nodes of a cluster as line chart"

With this new widget you can analyze interactively metrics for a specific Cluster on the Dashboard. You can show the following metrics for all nodes of the Cluster:

  • CPU (%): CPU utilization on Gateway server
  • Memory (%): RAM utilization on Gateway server, including cache and buffer
  • Disk Space (%): used disc space on Gateway server

You can show data from the last 5, 10 and 30 min.

Widget: "Quick Health Check"Added the option to filter to show only Nodes from a specific Cluster. If you want to show all Nodes, just don't select a cluster. 
Widget: "Node State"

Completely new Widget to show the status of a Node or a Cluster. Real-time metrics data for the Node for

  • CPU (%): CPU utilization on Gateway server
  • Memory (%): RAM utilization on Gateway server, including cache and buffer
  • Disk Space (%): used disc space on Gateway server

Shows you on every metrics with the color (running=grey, warning=yellow, error=red) an indication of the Node Health. 

Widget: "Service State"

Completely new Widget to show the status of a Services. Real-time metrics data for the Service for

  • State: Health of the Service for all Nodes, the Service is running
  • Request: Requests combined for all Nodes, the Service is running
Widget: "Instance State"

Completely new Widget to show the status of a Services for a specific Node (Instance). Real-time metrics data for the Instance for

  • Frontend Response Time (ms)
  • Requests
Widget: "Node load per Stage"Added the metric Disc space of a Node to this widget. 
Rename/Delete  DashboardAdded the possibility to delete and rename existing Dashboards.

Description

Notes

Missing data with different dates on server

Please ensure, that all of your server (all gateway server and server for APIIDA API Gateway Manager) have the same time. You can use NTP for this. 

ServiceID in Migration overview of solutions

If you migrate a solution to a gateway, the current overview show you only one ServiceID. 

Dashboard: Click on 'add' deletes all changed widget data

If you click on 'add' in a Dashboard edit page, all your changed widgets preferences are lost. Please save all your preferences before you add a widget or block. 

Edit mode from Dashboard: all sites are in edit mode

If you are in the edit mode from a Dashboard, all other sites (e.g. Nodes or Services) are in edit mode too. Please go back to your Dashboard and save your changes. 

Migration fails with folders with same name

Migration fails when there are multiple folders with the same name on the target gateway

Memory consumption show cache from OS

The memory consumption is currently calculated by following rule:

(available memory) = (total memory) - (used memory) - (memory for cache) - (memory for buffer)

This will be changed in the next release to following rule:

(available memory) = (total memory) - (used memory)
