Shawn Heisey commented on SOLR-5405:
------------------------------------

Good idea, [~SchneiderCurtis].  I'm not color-blind, but I think it's important 
for our interface to accommodate those who are.

A little bikeshedding - different shape->status mappings that I think are 
slightly better:

circle - Active
square - Recovering
triangle (pointing downward) - Down
diamond - Recovery Failed
X - Gone

Rationale: Because the current graph uses circles, I think that continuing that 
shape when everything's OK will be less of a surprise for upgrading users.  An 
inverted triangle is a natural "down" indicator, and a diamond is another 
"pointy" shape ... tying it together with the triangle, which also indicates a 
problem state.

> Cloud graph view not usable by color-blind users - request small tweak

> Currently, the cloud view status is impossible to see easily on the graph 
> screen if you are color blind. (On of my coworkers.)
> Would it be possible to put " (X)" after the IP of the node where X is 
> [LARDFG] for the states?
