Nodes list

This article refers to Platform v2.9.0. The current Platform version is v3.2.0.

Overview​

The Nodes list is the central hub for managing every edge node registered in Barbara Panel. From here you can see each node's connectivity and status at a glance, filter the list by group or by online/offline state, search it by name, and select multiple nodes to launch batch operations against them.

  • Summary — total number of nodes registered and number currently displayed.
  • + Add Node — opens the New Node popup to register a new edge node. For the full registration flow, see Add the node to Panel.

The view itself can be displayed as a List or a Map.

  • List view — the default tabular layout (one row per node).
  • Map view — geographical perspective; each node is placed at the coordinates configured in its General Info card.

Above the list you have:

  • Search bar — filters by node name.
  • Filter bar — narrows the list by group and by online/offline state.

Each row shows:

  • A checkbox to select the node for a batch operation.
  • Online — green check if the node is currently connected; red x otherwise.
  • Node Name — the name you assigned to the node.
  • Status — the lifecycle status of the node (see Node management for the full state machine).
  • Group — the group the node belongs to.
  • Tags — any tags attached to the node.
  • Last Seen — Online for currently connected nodes, or a timestamp for disconnected ones showing when the last telemetry was received.

Launch a batch operation​

Use batch operations to apply the same action to several nodes at once.

Selecting nodes for a batch operation

Selecting nodes for a batch operation

  1. Select the target nodes by ticking their checkboxes.
  2. Open the batch action menu in the top bar. Each batch action has its own icon (power, settings, Docker, marketplace, model, firmware, advanced).

  1. Pick the operation to send to the selected nodes. The selection is preserved as a batch and you can monitor its progress from the Batches view.

Summary​

The Nodes list is where you go to see, filter, and act on every edge node in your organization. Use the List view for day-to-day inventory work and the Map view when geographic context matters; use batch operations whenever you would otherwise repeat the same change on more than one node.
