TV mode

For the wall in the server room or NOC. There are two independent wall views.

Error-overview wall (/tv)

A dedicated, lightweight page without app navigation that mirrors the same filters as the error overview:

  • Count tiles (Critical/Warning/No Data/Unknown, optionally OK)
  • List of current problems, sorted like the error overview, with host, check, tenant, value, ACK badge, "flapping" hint, and time since the last change
  • An "all OK" state when nothing is open

The error overview's filters (status, tenants, profiles, ACK, accepted, downtime, dependency-down, search, sort) carry over 1:1 as URL parameters — just copy the link from the error overview and append it to /tv.

Additional parameters:

Parameter Meaning
refresh refresh interval in seconds (default 30)
pivot true rotates the view 90° — for portrait-mounted screens

Example: /tv?statuses=CRITICAL,WARNING&refresh=15&pivot=true

Without a valid session (401/403), the page automatically redirects to login.

Custom-dashboard wall display (/tv/dashboards)

Displays one or more custom dashboards chrome-free (no sidebar/menu), but with a slim header bar: title, time-range picker, auto-refresh dropdown (off/10s/30s/1min/5min), clock. The widget grid is read-only — drag and resize are disabled.

Opened via the Monitor button in the dashboard header (openTvMode()), which automatically appends the current session token:

/tv/dashboards?id=<dashboardId>&token=<token>

For a rotating sequence of several dashboards, use ids (comma-separated) instead of id, plus interval (seconds per dashboard, default 60):

/tv/dashboards?ids=<id1>,<id2>,<id3>&interval=30

Small dots in the header show the position within the rotation.

Token in the URL

The link carries an active session token — anyone who knows the link can use it to access Vesana as long as the token is valid. Treat the link like a password and don't share it more widely than necessary.

Auth

Both wall views need a valid session. On first opening the custom-dashboard view with ?token=, the token is copied into the browser once — after that, a bookmark without the parameter is enough, as long as the same browser/kiosk machine is used.

Browser recommendation

  • current Chrome / Edge / Firefox
  • 1080p or 4K
  • kiosk mode on the wall PC, e.g. chromium --kiosk --disable-features=TranslateUI <url>
