The Datacenter one is a global overview of all configured jobs,
you do not see all info here, like you would do on the Node or
Guest specific panel, as this is node specific.

More or less, we thought that it may be interesting and useful to see all
jobs of the whole cluster and all jobs of a node at a glance.
Else, if you hadn't in mind on which VMs you already configured a Job you would
need to go through each and look at each panel, which is very cumbersome.
You get a nice overview with this, so while it may be seen much it also adds
value. Also it was not much work to have it on three levels.

Summarized:
*You can Add/Edit/Remove jobs on all levels.
* You can see a Jobs Status, Log, Duration,.. or Schedule a Job now at the Node
   and VM/CT level only.

cheers,
Thomas
