Description

Currently, the webui displays the list of framework roles in the framework tables as well as in the framework page. With the introduction of multi-role frameworks and hierarchical roles, frameworks may use a very large number of roles (e.g. consider a framework that uses 1 role per service job). The webui should assume the number of roles can be O(10,000s).

• This means listing out all the roles in table columns and so on is problematic.
• The 'Roles' tab will likely need to be updated to display more of a expandable / collapsable tree-like structure to navigate portions of the hierarchy that the user is interested in (per the original suggestion in MESOS-6995).
