cloudant local edition, remote dashboard

I'm doing some prototyping with Cloudant Local Edition (1.0.0.5 on Ubuntu 14.04, if it matters).

With a vanilla install, the Cloudant dashboard app runs on the same server as the Cloudant node. I'm looking for a way to use the dashboard to connect to a Cloudant instance on another server. In other words, I have Cloudant nodes A, B, and C. From my desktop browser, I can connect to each dashboard as http://A/dashboard.html, or http://B/dashboard.html. What I am looking for is a way to connect to A/dashboard.html (perhaps on a different port) and be able to connect to A or B.

I've been scouring documentation and also poking around at lots of files in my Cloudant Local Edition installed software. So far, no joy. Is it possible? How?

Are nodes A, B, and C clustered? If they are, there should be a load balancer in front of them that also runs the dashboard. You can find info about the load balancer installation in Cloudant Local docs.

If not, then I think what you're trying to do is impossible, unfortunately. The dashboard isn't a management console for multiple Cloudant installations.
