Description

If I am navigating the new UI and NiFi is stopped, I get a small popup that says "Failed to load cluster summary - [An unspecified error occurred.] Dismiss"  If I dismiss this popup, then I am left with a UI that appears to be unresponsive.

The old UI used to change the whole page to an "Unable to communicate with NiFi" page.

Is there anything we can do to make it more obvious in the new UI that the NiFi server isn't responding?
