Managing maps in MAP

This topic explains how to perform actions on your maps from the Centreon MAP interface. You can create two types of maps:

  • Standard maps: to view graphical representations of your monitored infrastructure.
  • Geographic views: to display the resources of your IT environment across a defined geographical area.

Options that are available in the MAP interface depend on the permissions assigned to you by your administrator. See Managing access rights in MAP to learn more about rights and permissions.

If you see the Add a Map or Add a Geographic view button, you belong to an access group that is granted the creator role, and you can create maps.

Map status information​

The Map page lists the existing maps. Each map shows the worst status of the resources and containers it includes.
