A panel that reads like a console
The KLYRN VM panel was redesigned around the question each page answers: one-line tables, real system logos, and nothing that has to be scrolled sideways.
The KLYRN VM panel was rebuilt around one question per page. The machine list answers "is anything wrong, and where", so it is a table with one line per machine: the system's logo and name, its status, address, node and size. Status filters carry their counts before they are pressed.
Decisions that made the difference
- One view. The card grid is gone from machines and nodes. A fleet is scanned and compared, and phones still get compact rows.
- Colour means state. A healthy meter is grey, so the one amber or red bar on a page is the one the eye finds.
- Act on many at once. Tick machines and start, shut down or restart them together; each button says how many it will act on when that is fewer than were ticked.
- Nothing scrolls sideways. A 60-character machine name used to push the task list past the window. A check now opens every page at three widths and fails if any scrolls sideways.
Checked, not assumed
Every change runs against the panel's interface checks, including one that creates, watches and deletes a machine through the panel, and one that reads the requests a bulk action sends to make sure only the ticked machines receive them.
