1. A method, comprising:
- receiving a request to display a management UI of a local node from a first cluster of nodes to manage the first cluster of nodes from a management console user interface (UI) of a central management node, the management console UI of the central management node managing a second cluster of nodes;
determining, based on the request received, a UI version of the management UI for the local node, wherein the UI version corresponds to a version of the management UI executing at the local node for managing the first cluster of nodes; and
executing a cached copy of the management UI of the local node within a browser of the management console UI at the central management node, wherein a request made from the cached copy of the management UI of the local node is proxied to the local node to be executed by the local node to manage the first cluster of nodes.

Abstract
The present disclosure provides an improved approach to implement a management infrastructure for computing environments. The user interfaces for local management nodes are cached at a central management node. The cached copies of the local node UIs can then be executed as if the user was actually operating from the local node.

10. A non-transitory computer readable medium, the non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon a sequence of instructions which, when executed by a processor of a central management node, causes the processor to execute a method, the method comprising:
-
receiving a request to display a management UI of a local node from a first cluster of nodes to manage the first cluster of nodes from a management console user interface (UI) of the central management node, the management console UI of the central management node managing a second cluster of nodes; determining, based on the request received, a UI version of a management UI for the local node, wherein the UI version corresponds to a version of the management UI executing at the local node for managing the first cluster of nodes; and executing a cached copy of the management UI of the local node within a browser of the management console UI at the central management node, wherein a request made from the cached copy of the management UI of the local node is proxied to the local node to be executed by the local node to manage the first cluster of nodes. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A system, comprising:
-
a processor; a memory for holding programmable code; and wherein the programmable code includes instructions for receiving a request to display a management UI of a local node from a first cluster of nodes to manage the first cluster of nodes from a management console user interface (UI) of a central management node, the management console UI of the central management node managing a second cluster of nodes, determining, based on the request received, a UI version of a management UI for the local node, wherein the UI version corresponds to a version of the management UI executing at the local node for managing the first cluster of nodes, and executing a cached copy of the management UI of the local node within a browser of the management console UI at the central management node, wherein a request made from the cached copy of the management UI of the local node is proxied to the local node to be executed by the local node to manage the first cluster of nodes. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25)
