Sessions

Accessing an application's sessions history

As described earlier, a Nuvolos application is a set of resources and associated configurations. When you start the application, an application session is created. Every session is a single continuous run of the application, identified by an unique session id.

An application's current and previous session information is available in Nuvolos. To access the session history of an application, open the Sessions page under the Actions button in the Applications list.

Getting to the Application's Session history
Application sessions history default view

This will take you to the default view of the application's session history. By default, the following information are shown:

  • Start / Stop Time

    • Timestamp of when the session was started and/or ended. An active indicator for the stop time column means that the application is still running.

    • Search and filter for a specific date using the Start time column

  • Runtime

    • Actual running time (HH:MM:SS) of the application's session

  • Size

    • Resource configuration (NCU / Node pool) used for the application at the time the session was started

  • Credits Spent

    • Total credits spent for a specific session

    • Only applicable to credit-based sizes; not available for NCU configurations

  • Actions

Adding Columns to the Session History Viewer
