Stefan Matheis (steffkes) commented on SOLR-4770:
-------------------------------------------------

Mark, currently we are not able to display such information .. because they 
don't exist in the {{clusterstate.json}} file, which is used for almost all the 
cloud-related UI things as underlying information. You can check what's 
available right now with 
{{/solr/zookeeper?detail=true&path=%2Fclusterstate.json}} (or access it through 
the UI, as you like) .. and that's not really that much information about 
another instance.

The UI itself can't check for the details (f.e. by requesting {{/admin/system}} 
which powers the Dashboard) because that would be a CrossDomain-Request 
(javascript requires scheme, host & port to be the same) which is not possible 
on the client-side.

So, if we'd like to have this information there .. we have to get it (somehow) 
into ZK. Should be doable, but i have not enough knowledge on that topic. ..

>             Project: Solr

>    Affects Versions: 4.2
>            Reporter: Mark Bennett

> We render a nice graphical view of your current cluster from the URL 
> http://localhost:8983/solr/#/~cloud
> It'd be nice to gather some info about those other nodes without having to 
> visit them.  Since you can't right-click to open those nodes in another tab, 
> your only choice now is to duplicate that tab, and then click the link.
> This was mentioned in SOLR-4438 but Stefan Matheis (steffkes) requested that 
> it be broken out into a separate task and detailed a bit more.
> Mouse-Over often indicates a Balloon-help style thing, but another option is 
> to reserve another part of the screen down below that can display node info, 
> and then refresh it as the mouse hovers over various nodes.  I'm not sure 
> which is easier nor which is more accessible.
> Sadly some devices don't support Hover, and the click method is already used 
> to take you to that other node.  So perhaps it'd be easier to display some 
> type of "(i)" / Info icon that you can specifically click on to see that 
> node's info, without jumping to it.
> Specific items it might be nice to see:
> (generally mirroring what's on default Dashboard screen if you were to visit 
> that node)
> * Start
> * Host
> * CWD
> * Instance
> * Data
> * Index
> * Solr & Lucene version (to help with upgrading, though not sure we need all 
> 4 fields?)
> Resources:
> * JVM meory
> * maybe Physical Memory
> * Some hint about disk stats?
> Args of:
> -DnumShards
> -DzkRun
> -STOP
> ... not sure how many.... could get too much, but some would be handy
