Change Cube’s banner color

I expect it's not possible, but before I suggest it as a new feature - is it possible to set different Cube banner colors for different DMSs?
So the production DMS can remain a default blue, but a staging DMS shows as green - so I don't accidentally change parameters on production thinking that it's the staging system!

Hi Dave,

I believe it is not possible to change the Cube's banner color. As a workaround, you could set a specific background theme for staging and another one for production system.

Hope it helps.

Hi Dave,

As Miguel suggests, changing the background theme might indeed result in enough of a visual difference to avoid mixing up the two systems. In total, there are three themes available.

More on how to change the background theme: https://docs.dataminer.services/user-guide/Getting_started/The_DataMiner_User_Interface/DataMiner_Cube/User_settings.html#general-settings

Hi Dave,

please make sure enable the "Show cluster name" in the Cube Header Bar. Hopefully this can also help a bit.

Refer to: DataMiner Cube header bar | DataMiner Docs

Thanks for the suggestion Karel. I do have that configured, but I’m still paranoid that I’m going to control the wrong system!

Karel Lodefier [SLC] [DevOps Member] commented 21st February 2023

Yes, fully understand your concern.
Thanks for creating the feature suggestion!

Hi,

If the main reason is to avoid accidently changing parameter values on a production system, there might be some extra obstacles that can be configured besides a different UI theme:

  • In the Cube settings, it can be configured to always display a confirmation box (this is by default activated). See this help section option "Never ask for confirmation after setting parameter value" . I would definitely advise to have the confirmation active on a production setup.
  • Another possibility could be to remove the write rights from your user. This can be done by e.g. under the rights General->Elements->Data Display->View write parameters, or per element under the view security to disable the "Write" checkbox. If a value needs to be set then either enable the write rights again (but don't forget to disable it afterwards), or login with a different user (such as the Administrator) that has the write rights
