Morgana: Google Maps Integration for Zenoss
Morgana provides for Google Maps integration in the Zenoss network monitoring system.
Usage
With Morgana you can associate geographic positioning information (pairs latitude/longitude) to Zenoss locations; we call locations with such information available geolocations. When browsing Zenoss devices using the Locations organizer (the "Browse By > Locations" link in the web user interface) you will see a Google Map showing all geolocations.
The map will be centered on the geolocations rooted at the current path of the location tree, and other geolocations will be shown as idle geolocations (currently as a white pushpin). Active (i.e. not idle) geolocations will be shown as pushpins with various color, depending on the amount and gravity of errors that Zenoss knows about them.
Clicking on a pushpin you will be able to jump to the corresponding Zenoss location and to do managements tasks such as removing geographic information for the geolocation.
Morgana helps you in adding geographic information to your locations: you can right click everywhere on a map and choose from a drop down menu which location you want to be geolocated there. Alternatively, you can write an address in the Search Address form; the address will be searched, and you will be then able to set a location as placed in the found place.
