Custom Query (981 matches)

There should be an optional switch to suppress results that are in state deleted and thus would not show on the result summary pages of the ops section. After each file_deleter run, the summary is cluttered with results because the delete state changed from initial to deleted and thus the mod_time was updated.

I'm not sure if this should be per-user or as a parameter to result_summary.php (and similar pages). What I would like to see is that I can set it as default and switch it of when needed.

Problem: Because of the hostid check in trickle_deadline_handler.cpp:99

sprintf(buf, " where name='%s' and hostid=%u", task_name, mfh.hostid);

and how the handler framework handles such cases the handler will retry the same message again and again if the query fails.

In my case it failed because somehow the hostid of the result changed between sending the trickle message and the query by the trickle handler. This was flooding the logfile.

Proposed change: mark failed messsages by setting handled=2 and change the purge_trickles.php script to only delete messages with handled=1. This would allow the admin to investigate on the message.

Remark: The hostid check was put in place to prevent some kind of DoS Attack by a third party by spamming the server with fake trickle messages. This would mean that we are extending results that are no longer running and would prevent another task to be created.

I would like to display project specific content on ops/index.php through a function that is in project/*.inc. Mainly because I have several project specific pages within ops that I need to review regularly.

The Browse database function also needs a review. Some new fields are not shown and with the large number of fields we should think about a cleaner way to show them (bootstrap has collapsible containers or tabs, but that's far away for the ops section).

There is already a project specific feature to show extra content on user visible workunit and result pages. This should also be enabled in the browse database pages in the ops section.
