+ <h1>NagVis Dynamic Maps</h1>
+ <h2>Introduction</h2>
+ <p>The NagVis Dynamic Map source was introducted in NagVis 1.8. It has
been created to make it easier
+ to create schematic maps which contain equal kinds of objects.</p>
+ <p>For example if you like to have one single map which contains
several host objects, maybe all hosts
+ which name starts with <code>srv-</code>. Without the dynamic maps you
would always have to add a host
+ object to your map if you add a new host to your monitoring and also
remove it if some of those hosts
+ is being removed.<br />
+ <p>Using the dynamic maps you can now compute your rule definitions
once and every time the monitoring
+ configuration changes, the map checks itselfs if some host needs to be
added, removed or repositioned.</p
+ <p><i>Please Note:</i> This feature is only available when you are
using the livestatus backend (at the moment).</p>
+
+ <h2>How to configure?</h2>
+ <p>You could simply create a new map in the NagVis user interface,
configure it to use the source
+ <code>dynmap</code> and then change all the <code>dynmap_*</code>
options to fit your needs.
+
+ <p>An alternative way is to create the map configuration by hand.
Browse to the map config directory
+ and create a new file, for example named
<code>test-dynmap.cfg</code>.</p>
+
+ <p>Now add the necessary options to the map configuration file you
just created:</p>
+
+ <pre>global {
+ sources=dynmap
+ alias=Test Dynmap
+ iconset=std_medium
+ backend_id=demo
+ # Dynmap Parameters
+ dynmap_object_types=host
+ dynmap_object_filter=Filter: name ~ srv-.*\n
+}</pre>
+
+ <p>The <code>sources=dynmap</code> line tells the map to use the
dynmap source for altering the
+ map configuration.
+
+ The <code>dynmap_object_types=host</code> line tells the dynmap source
to gather objects of the
+ type host to be shown on the map.
+
+ <p>The <code>dynmap_object_filter=Filter: name ~ srv-.*\n</code> line
contains one or several livestatus
+ filter definitions to be used to filter the map objects.
+
+ <h2>Configuring dynmaps</h2>
+ <p>The dynmap uses the following map configuration attributes in the
global section of the maps.</p>
+ <table style="width:100%">
+ <tr>
+ <th>Parameter</th><th>Default</th><th>Description</th>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>dynmap_object_types</td>
+ <td></td>
+ <td>The type of objects to be shown on this map, either host,
service, hostgroup or servicegroup.</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>dynmap_object_filter</td>
+ <td></td>
+ <td>One or several livestatus filter definitions, seperated by
"\n".</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>dynmap_init_x</td>
+ <td>20</td>
+ <td>The left px coordinate of the object grid.</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>dynmap_init_y</td>
+ <td>700</td>
+ <td>The top px coordinate of the object grid</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>dynmap_offset_x</td>
+ <td>30</td>
+ <td>The offset in pixel to seperate the objects of a row
horizontally.</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>dynmap_offset_y</td>
+ <td>30</td>
+ <td>The offset in pixel to seperate the lines of objects with.</p>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>dynmap_per_row</td>
+ <td>30</td>
+ <td>Objects to add in the grid per row. The Y offset is applied
once a row reaches this number.</td>
+ </tr>
+ </table>
