Web - Compliance & node report
Description
lets say I have an "enforce a file content" based directive that handles several times (7/8 times) the same file
The file name will be used as component in reporting
When i Access to the reporting in Rule compliance display there will only be one netrey for value 'file' instead of having 7/8
This produce like 6 message by value(7/8) by component(6) by Node(50).
When I click on a percent on the left it will tries to send 6 * 8 * 6 * 50 messages for the popup which makes a lot of data to send through the web ... whch make my request timeout :(
sad :(
We should at least keep values seprated (we do it in Node compliance display)

This modification hides information to the user :(
if we have an enforce file content with 2 editions of the same files, the reports don't show it - worse, shows that there is only one edition
Given the complexity of scrolling within a directive, there is virtually no way a user will know how many edition of a given file is made
Vincent had a neat idea: add a (x2) next to the component value if the same component value was several time there.
i'm getting result that I was not expecting when having applying result
see screenshot - /tmp/enforce is edited twice on 4 nodes
One node answer, so we receive 2 success, and the compliance computed is 2 out of 2 + 4 no reports -> 40%
I was expecting 25% :(

Could you open a ticket for that one ?
Because we can't add the correct number of line and at the same time avoid the number of line explosion, since it's the same key that is used in both case. We need the correction to the message identification problem before that.

That looks like a bug, where we don't keep the correct number of expected reports - and so, I'm wondering how it can be correct when getting two, and I'm wondering what is happening when getting 3.
Could you open a different ticket to explain and track that one ?

I tend to disagree, we could simply have a set of component values on the left, and a set of message on the right
No explosion of lines, and no identification (would it make sense to know that the second one made a different message, when order is not enforce ?)
- Related to Bug #7103: When we have node in no answer/pending, with a directive acting several time on the same object, the compliance % is invalid added
- Status changed from Pending release to Released
This bug has been fixed in Rudder 2.10.16, 2.11.13, 3.0.8 and 3.1.1 which were released today.
