"Show received messages" from Nodes (6.2+: Cluster Configuration) page

[coffee-squirrel]

What?

There should be a Show received messages link for each node on the Nodes/Cluster Configuration page, which (when clicked) initiates a search on gl2_source_node:$NODE_ID.

Why?

The need is similar to the Show received messages option available per input on the Inputs page (/system/inputs): sometimes you want to quickly see the log messages coming in (or not coming in) through a certain path.

Having a way to directly jump from the Nodes/Cluster Configuration page to a search matching a particular node would make investigating potential node issues just a bit easier.

Your Environment

• Graylog Version: 6.1.8

FYI, in 6.2 the Nodes page is becoming the "Cluster Configuration" page, which combines health monitoring and configuration for both Graylog Nodes and Data Nodes (and perhaps more in the future). We will consider adding your request in a future release.
