NetXMS Support Forum

Hey there!

I'm missing one little easy feature in this great Application:

Display a graphical map (->possible) with all nodes which are monitored in just one map (->not possible?!)

I think the implemented hierarchy for every subnet is useful in only larger networks.
But if you have just a small network with let's say 20 nodes - all of them in just one map would make more sense..

Is that possible?
Would be great!

Hello!

We plan this feature (custom maps) for the next major development branch. However, with current version you can create custom map, but this is a bit tricky. Below is an instruction:

1. Create new container object under "All Services", and look at container's object id.
2. Stop NetXMS server.
3. Perform the following SQL query in NetXMS database

UPDATE maps SET root_object_id=<place container object id here> WHERE map_id=1

4. Start server again. After that, all objects added to container created in step one will be shown on map.

With upcoming 0.2.19, you also will be able to create links between objects. And remember, it's just a hack, not a complete custom map implementation!

Best regards,
Victor
