Title: Documentation
Post by: lindeamon on October 19, 2017, 11:23:20 AM
Hi,

where can i find the most up to date and complete documentation ?
currently, i am trying to find information about the agent and sub-agents and i can't find 1 source that is complete.
i have to look in the:
1. admin guide pdf
2. sample config
3. wiki
4. forum
and all of this is taking to much time that i end up leaving it and basically, not taking advantage of the full potential of netxms.

thanks,
Lindeamon

Hi,

We are doing our best to organize documentation in next way:
- Admin guide - main documentation that will contain overall information about the system and detailed description of views and possible actions. Small amount of very simple examples. (Most of configuration parameters are already described in documentation: https://www.netxms.org/documentation/adminguide/appendix.html#agent-configuration-file-nxagentd-conf and https://www.netxms.org/documentation/adminguide/appendix.html#server-configuration-file-netxmsd-conf)
- Wiki - all "How to" and script/code examples, information for developers

hi Tatjana,

we all appreciate the hard work that you and the netxms team does.
this is one app that i use widely and recommend to every sysadmin i know.
i keep reminding you about documentation because without it, it is very hard to configure a lot of features thus, not maximizing the use of it.

keep up the good work,
Lindeamon

If you have list of missing or poorly described topics I'll be happy to work on them.
It might be hard to notice them mostly developing the product(without real usage).
