Cluster administration and audit

The Admin page provides a comprehensive set of administrative and audit features, all conveniently located in one place:

Admin section:

  • Mute Cluster: Temporarily prevent the cluster from sending alerts or events to Local WEKA Home. Useful for mitigating alert overload during maintenance activities.

  • Delete Cluster: Remove a legacy WEKA cluster from Local WEKA Home (without deleting the cluster itself).

  • Maintenance Window: Set a specific time window when alert and event notifications (including email, SNMP, and PagerDuty alerts) won't be sent.

Cluster Audit section:

  • Cluster Audit: Keep track of audited activities, including cluster muting/unmuting and maintenance window changes. Get a detailed history of when these actions were taken.
