Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Tomas Jelinek 2020-03-05 14:42:50 UTC
Description of problem:
JS part of the pcsd web UI refreshes cluster status every 30ish seconds. Upon receiving the refresh request, pcsd backend gathers the status by running several cluster tools. If several users are viewing the same cluster or have the web UI opened in multiple tabs, each of them is asking for the cluster status individually and all such requests are handled independently. This can cause a significant load in the cluster even if load related to a single status refresh is reasonable.

The idea is:
* whenever a user starts viewing a cluster in web UI, start a loop for loading its status in the backend
* the loop automatically loads cluster status every 30ish seconds (this may be configurable) and caches it
* when web UI asks for cluster status, it gets response immediately from the cache
* if the loop detects nobody asked for cluster status for a while, it stops to prevent unnecessary load
* we may want to have a way to force loading the status / override the cache

In a similar way, we need to deal with the clusters overview view.



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
pcs-0.10.4-5.el8


How reproducible:
always, easily


Steps to Reproduce:
1. display a cluster in web ui
2. run top on cluster machines, observe refreshing the status periodically causes load
3. display the same cluster in more browsers or tabs
4. run top on cluster machines, observe refreshing the status periodically causes bigger load


Actual results:
each web UI instance loads the cluster status individually causing extra load


Expected results:
the cluster status is refreshed once in while no matter how many clients are connected keeping the load at reasonable levels
