9 Maps

Overview

In the Monitoring → Maps section any configured network map can be viewed.

You can use the dropdown in the map title bar to switch between different configured maps.

Icon highlighting

If a map element is in problem status, it is highlighted with a round circle. The fill colour of the circle corresponds to the severity colour of the problem trigger. If all problems are acknowledged, a thick green border around the circle is displayed.

Additionally, a host in maintenance is highlighted with an orange, filled square and a disabled (not-monitored) host is highlighted with a grey, filled square. Highlighting is displayed if the Icon highlighting check-box is marked in map configuration.

Recent change markers

Inward pointing red triangles around an element indicate a recent trigger status change - one that's happened within the last 30 minutes. These triangles are shown if the Mark elements on trigger status change check-box is marked in map configuration.

Links

Clicking on a map element opens a menu with some available links.

Controls

Two control buttons are available in the title bar:

• - add map to the favourites widget in the Dashboard
• - use the full browser window to display the map

Referencing a network map

Network maps can be referenced by both sysmapid and mapname GET parameters. For example,

http://zabbix/zabbix/maps.php?mapname=Local%20network

will open the map with that name (Local network).

If both sysmapid (map ID) and mapname (map name) are specified, mapname has higher priority.
