Ideas

A list of broader ideas for Cockpit functionality. This list is here to inspire and track things that are interesting enhancements, but nobody has actually decided to contribute (yet).

Host Groups For example, a web group that could contain all web servers? a mail group for mail servers and mailing list servers? workstations for local machines? @michaelwemoto #2791

Libvirt GUI It would be really handy if Cockpit could provide monitoring for virtual machines similar to the way that it does for docker containers. Bonus points for implementing full virt-manager functionality. @sgallagh #2099

Set System Keyboard Cockpit should let admins configure the keyboard layout that are used on the virtual consoles and eventually running X servers. @nphilipp #640

List WiFI devices We should list all devices and show their traffic even if we don't want to touch their configuration. @mvollmer #1308

org.freedesktop.Problems support org.freedesktop.Problems D-Bus interface [1] has been designed for management of application failures. Currently only ABRT implements this interface, however, it would be nice if cockpit could display the detected problems. The interface has not yet been standardized thus any changes needed will be immediately included and implemented in ABRT. @jfilak #95
