Maybe we can move this information inside the table header or footer. This would prevent this problem from happening.

If we could use streams (PUSH) we would not have stale data anymore if the server is connected :) (https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/45306)

I would suggest we add a button to the table header, where we could display the status of the table.
This solution saves lots of space and is able to display all information.
We can either only show the button when something went bad or always display the button.

Nice improvement. I like suggestion two with the yellow button and black icon.

I'm not quite sure if adding another button just as an indicator is the best approach, as it further clutters the table's header area. How about changing the color of the reload button instead and using tooltips to explain the state? The reload button could turn yellow, if the data is deemed stale and could turn red if the table data could not be refreshed.
