Configuration Prerequisites
- The individual performing this installation has some Linux experience.
- NMIS8 is installed on the same server where opMaps will be installed
- NMIS8 is installed in /usr/local/nmis8
- opMaps is installed into /usr/local/opmantek
- Root access is available (not always needed but much easier)
- Perl 5.10
- RRDtool 1.4.7
Creating Map File
After installing opMaps, you will need to set up the GroupLocations.nmis so opMaps can display a geographic map of your NMIS status.
To do this you will need to :
- Change your current directory to /usr/local/opmantek/bin/
- Execute the Perl script configmaps.pl
This script creates the Map Files based on the NMIS Node files.
Usage: ./configmaps.pl <NODES> <GroupLocations>
cd /usr/local/opmantek/bin/ ./configmaps.pl /usr/local/nmis8/conf/Nodes.nmis /usr/local/opmantek/conf/GroupLocations.nmis
Configure Google API Key
opMaps comes with a default Google API Key, It is recommended to use your own Google API Key.
If you don’t already have one, please follow these steps from Google to acquire one.
To configure your own Google API key, open the Maps.nmis file in /usr/local/opmantek/conf/
Find the following line and replace the defaultAPI with your own Google API KEY
'googleApiKey' => ' defaultAPI ',
