Application Center
Purpose
Group VMs into business applications with workspace scoping, health pulse, and an inspector for protection and membership.
When to use it
- Model a service as an application over multiple VMs
- Filter applications by workspace or search
- Inspect health and linked VMs for one application
- Create an application with selected VM membership
How to get there
- Route:
/applications - Nav: Command palette / deep link
- Related:
/vms,/backup-dr,/tasks
Operate from the console (UX)
- Open
/applicationsfrom the sidebar, workspace switcher, or command palette (⌘K / Ctrl+K). - Read the PageHead / deck line — confirm it matches: Group VMs into business applications with workspace scoping, health pulse, and an inspector for protection and membershi….
- Use the center’s primary CTA (create, scan, open workbench, ask Zeus when reasoning is required).
- Deterministic navigation and filters call the router directly — do not round-trip those through Ask Zeus.
- Pin frequent pages to Favorites (
/favorites). - Empty / fail: No data → check auth, namespace filter, and that required operators (KubeVirt/CDI/monitoring) are installed; purpose was: Group VMs into business applications with workspace scoping, health pulse, and an inspector for prot.
- Success: Live inventory or job progress matches the deck line; you can navigate to a related center without re-auth.
Use https://<host>:30050/ (NodePort) or your ingress URL — never publish lab IPs. HTTPS is required for in-browser VNC. Browse lists are safe; power actions live on workbenches.
