NetXMS Support Forum

Hi

I've been fiddling around with PHP&NetXMS with a colleague to create some kind of frontend to quickly display graphs of the collected metric data and the status of the metrics and potential alerts.
To be honest so far we focused almost exclusively on the part concerning the graphs/charts, as it was the most complicated one.


We have 3 questions:
- do you think it's useful?
- does anything similar already exist, making this superfluous?
- can anybody think of an appropriate name for this small app? (so far we haven't been able to come up with any acceptable name    )


The app is very simple as we wanted to keep effort to a minimum: some simple PHP (code a bit messy - learned PHP on the way) returning simple HTML code to the browser - no fancy Web2.0 stuff nor complex layouts.
The main differences with the "Line chart" of NetXMS is that you can customize the chart for the range of data to examine and that it doesn't (shouldn't) have performance impact on the server/client when there is a lot of data to analyze. Compared to the reports of NetXMS here the graphs/charts are generated on-the-fly as soon as you put into the description of the NetXMS metric the correct parameters that this app needs (no need to create a report or something similar).


You can get an initial feeling of how the app looks by checking the screenshots I have uploaded:
- the 1st is just the first page displayed.
- the 2nd is a prototype of a page that would display potential active alerts and the list of all metrics and their last value (throughout all servers and/or containers or something like that).
- the 3rd shows the other page that is supposed to plot the graphs of the metric data that you're collecting.
- the remaining ones are just examples of the impact of the change of parameters on the graphs and the grid containing the graphs.

The problem with the name of the application is that it has something to do with both plotting data into charts and showing the status of NetXMS itself - we're not able to think of a name that gives a hint of both areas under the same umbrella.


Thanks a lot

Hi

I found this post https://www.netxms.org/forum/general-support/login-with-certificate/ about how to set up the certificate login for users but I didn't understand...

Quotethe CA certificate has already been added to the "Certificates".

I looked everywhere in the Web-UI but didn't find in the menu any "Certificates" entry.

Could please somebody be so kind to put me on the right track about where/how to install the server certificate when using the standalone web interface - where do I have to install the root certificate? Do I have to unpack the war of the webserver and put it somewhere there?

I already did this in the past with IIS, Weblogic and Apache, but have no clue about NetXMS' standalone webserver... .

Thanks a lot!!

Hello
Just tried out NetXMS and after some initial doubts I now love it.
There is however 1 thing that I would need and that I didn't understand if it's possible to do or not:

is it possible to export in some way the contents of the dashboard to e.g. an html-file?
Or to export one or more graphs I see in the dashboard to a png/gif/whatever file?

I don't want to have to write a report in jasperXML and failed so far to find any alternative. Found some posts like this one https://www.netxms.org/forum/configuration/report-generating/msg3975/#msg3975 but they seem all to be quite old and was wondering if any new functionality has been added in the meanwhile which I missed in the user manual.

Reason: would be less risky in a secured corporate environment to serve static content through a normal webserver instead of having to rely on the security of the NetXMS product.

Thanks a lot!
