Infrastructure distribution
The Infrastructure Distribution section in the Cockpit displays information about the clusters you have available in your DX Cloud setup. There are typically production and integration clusters at a minimum, but each setup is different.
The page has two tabs: Nodes and Placement.
Select desired cluster
Select your desired cluster from the dropdown menu at the top of the Cockpit.
Nodes
The Nodes tab shows the cluster overview:
- Cloud provider: The cloud provider used for your infrastructure.
- Nodes: The number of nodes in your infrastructure.
- Created: The date and time the infrastructure was created.
- Network Endpoints: The load balancer used for your infrastructure.
- Egress: The source IP addresses for traffic leaving the cluster. Allow these addresses when a system outside the cluster must accept connections from it.
There is also a table that shows detailed node information such as:
- Name (the name of the node)
- Location of the node
- Node type
- Version
- Internal IP
- Egress IP
- Architecture
- Operating System (OS)
- CPU usage in percentage
- Memory usage in percentage
- When the node was created
- Associated pods
Placement
Use Placement to see where each Magnolia instance and its database run, without using kubectl. A pair in different availability zones adds latency to every database query. The tab lists each instance next to its database so you can find those pairs.
For each environment the table shows:
- The Magnolia pod, the node and zone it runs on, and the zone of each volume (PVC)
- The paired database pod, its node and zone, and its volume zones
- Same node and Same zone
Same zone: No means the instance and its database are in different availability zones. Different nodes in the same zone is normal. A volume whose zone differs from its pod is marked, so you can see which volumes would have to move to bring the pair together.
Placement is read from the cluster snapshot and can lag the live cluster by a few minutes.
