Description

The aim of the widget 360 is to provide a 3 dimensional view of a host dependency tree. 

Even if navigating in 3D is not easy, this widget can be very usefull for complex dependency tree:

  • Not all situations can be displayed in the Dependency Graph Widget.
  • It can also provide a clear overview of the tree while you will need 

Each tree node contains the following information of the host:

  • its name
  • its status
  • an icon of the type of the host. The icon is determined based on tags detected during the configuration phase.



(For a host having a Apache host, the icon will be the feather)


From the chosen host, it displays in 3D  the dependency tree up to 10 jumps (dependency links between elements defined in the UI Configuration)

Only hosts are displayed but if a check on the host is in critical or in warning state,

the host in the 360 widgets will also be displayed in the same state.
