Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Especially in multiple master-environments there should be a simple way to recognize the current icinga web 2 instance. Some customers activate different themes on the master sites (e.g. Icinga/Winter), so that they can differentiate to which master they are actively connected.

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be very helpful if there is an option to display the current icinga web 2 instance name somewhere in the main-area. Something like this maybe, but built-in without css-hacking and maybe a little bit more nicer ;-)

Versions:

There's already #3783 for this, doesn't this suffice?

Thanks, I know. From my point of view that's not sufficient, otherwise I wouldn't do any css-hacks to achieve that ;-)

Image the following very common customer scenario: There is a virtual ip that usually points to the web interface on master1 (e.g. pacemaker). In case something bad happens and the virtual ip is switched to master2 I want to see that on first sight without any extra effort clicking into the health section.

We have something like this planned with the redesign of the user menu. Or am I confusing something?

See #4096

FWIW, as a workaround, you can do a theme and add something like this:

#header-logo::after {
    content: "my instance";
    display: block;
    padding-top: 3.5em;
    color: white;
}

Of course, you can adjust that to your liking.
