Testing

Tip

Play with System Monitor on LCCF (Pre-Prod).

Warning

On LCCF, built-in test instance was deleted upon upgrade.¹

Or test manually on local machine…

1. Have a pre-existing Core-CMS from main.
2. Checkout this branch.
3. Rebuild pre-existing CMS (to install plugin from new source):
   make stop && make build && make start
4. Update database to use new plugin:
   docker exec -it core_cms python manage.py migrate
   Verify database state:
   docker exec -it core_cms_postgres psql -U postgresadmin -d taccsite -c "\dt *system_monitor*"
   • Check old table is absent.
     ^{taccsite_system_monitor_taccsitesystemmonitor}
   • Check new table is present.
     ^{djangocms_tacc_system_monitor_taccsitesystemmonitor}
5. Add System Monitor plugin.
6. Verify it works.
   ^{You must view Published page (not in ?edit mode).}

UI

Notes

Example Usage:

• https://frontera-portal.tacc.utexas.edu/
• https://cep.tacc.utexas.edu/design-system/ui-plugins/

Footnotes

1. Negligible, because this would only happen to Frontera's homepage and I would notice it missing upon upgrade, because I check entire home page each time I upgrade Frontera. ↩

@taoteg & @rstijerina,
This is now available on LCCF (Pre-Prod).¹

Footnotes

1. Won't show data on our VMs until /api/system-monitor/ lists Vista. ↩

[wesleyboar]

Vista shows on LCCF (Pre-Prod) now!

This looks good, but looking at https://github.com/TACC/Core-CMS-Plugin-System-Monitor, it appears to have outdated choices. (e.g. stampede2). We'll need to update that. For an enhancement, any way we can make the choices based on https://tap.tacc.utexas.edu/status? This is our source of truth.
