Overview

The Xloud Dashboard admin view provides platform-wide management capabilities. Administrators can manage projects and users, configure flavors and quotas, monitor infrastructure health, and administer all cloud services from a single interface.
Prerequisites
  • admin role in the target domain or globally
  • Access to the Dashboard at https://connect.<your-domain>
  • Switch to the Admin view using the toggle in the Dashboard header

​
Admin-Only Sections

The following sections are visible only in the Admin view:

Projects & Users

Create projects, manage users, assign roles, and configure domain settings

Flavors

Create and manage instance flavors with architecture, GPU, NUMA, and hot-add settings

Quotas

Set per-project resource limits for instances, vCPUs, RAM, and volumes

Volume Types

Configure storage tiers, QoS specs, and encryption types

Hypervisors

Host Aggregates

​
Dashboard Configuration

Dashboard configuration is managed through XDeploy, not through the Dashboard interface itself.
1

Configure Dashboard settings

Open XDeploy > Configuration > Advance Features. The Skyline Dashboard can be enabled with:
  • Enable Skyline Dashboard toggle
  • Enable RBAC Management toggle (when Skyline is enabled)
Click Save Configuration.
2

Deploy the configuration

Navigate to XDeploy > Operations and run Reconfigure to apply Dashboard configuration changes across all nodes.

​
Session and Authentication

The Skyline Dashboard uses JWT-based session cookies for authentication:
SettingDescription
Session DurationConfigurable JWT expiration (default: 1 hour)
Session Cookiesession cookie containing the JWT with Keystone token
AuthenticationUsername + password against Keystone Identity service
RBACPer-endpoint role-based access control with 30-second cache
Unlike traditional session stores (Memcached, Redis), the Skyline Dashboard uses stateless JWT tokens. No server-side session storage is required.
