Issues with daemon status presentation

I observed several issues with presenting the status of the Kea daemons after shutting down the agent and/or Kea daemons. The steps to reproduce the first issue:

  • Start Stork Agent and Kea DHCPv4 and Agent on the machine
  • Add the machine to Stork
  • Make sure you can see the Kea app and you get green ticks on DHCPv4 and CA daemons and red cross on DHCPv6
  • Shut down the agent. After a while you should observe communication errors and red crosses on DHCPv4 and CA
  • Restart the agent and wait a while. The red crosses are still there for DHCPv4 and CA.

The situation doesn't even seem to improve when refreshing the page nor after refreshing machine/app.

Another interesting case is this:

  • I had everything running and I now shut down Kea CA
  • I was expecting that the communication error will show up after a while in the daemon tab, but it didn't. Nevertheless...
  • I clicked on the dashboard and saw red crosses next to the Kea daemons (as expected)
  • I restarted Kea CA
  • I started navigating between the dashboard and the Kea app view. I still see error boxes and red crosses even though the CA is working fine
  • Refreshing the page doesn't work. Still see errors.
