The Dashboard is what you land on after signing in — a fleet-wide summary of your nodes and executors, and the quickest way to find the ones that need you.

Needs attention

The Needs attention panel gathers everything worth acting on right now. It steps aside when nothing is wrong — including no node update waiting — replaced by All systems nominal and a count of your nodes and executors. When something does need attention, the panel lists it as a row:
  • Node updates — every node with an available version update it hasn’t applied yet, urgent updates first:
    • Urgent update available — flagged as a security risk or a mandatory network change. Update it as soon as you can.
    • Update recommended — the release recommends taking it.
    • Update available — a newer supported version exists.
  • Stalled syncs — nodes that are starting or syncing with no visible progress.
  • Executors disconnected — executors whose key is still active but which have stopped reporting to the control plane, including one that has never checked in since you connected it. An executor is marked offline about 30 seconds after its last check-in; see Connect an executor for what to check.
  • Executors stale — executors that have reported before, but whose last sync is more than 5 minutes old. The host may well still be running; what Novacula shows about it — statuses, block heights, metrics — is no longer fresh, so read those figures with that in mind.
Each row deep-links to the relevant Nodes or Executors list, pre-filtered to exactly those items — the panel is where you notice something, not where you work on it.

Pool health

The Pool health panel appears once at least one pool has members. It lists up to five pools with the same status the pool’s own Overview computes — Ready, At risk, Needs attention, or Status unavailable while a check is still running — and how many of each pool’s members are in rotation (3 of 4 members in rotation). The DNS check runs here too, so a pool whose domain resolves to none of the expected addresses, or none of whose members can be reached, reads Needs attention without you opening it. Select a pool to open it; with more than five pools, N more pools takes you to the Pools list.

Recent activity

The Recent activity panel shows the five latest audit-log events — who did what across the organization — so you can see recent platform activity without leaving the dashboard. It reads No audit events yet. on a brand-new organization, and follows the audit log’s visibility: Owners and Admins see it; a Member doesn’t see the panel at all. View all opens the full Audit log for filtering, search, and CSV export.
  • Nodes overview — the Nodes list, its saved views, and what each node status means.
  • Executors — the hosts that run your nodes.
  • Alerts — conditions you define yourself, delivered to a channel.
