Media
Media are images used by the Centreon web interface. These images are used to represent the monitored resource in a more intuitive way, provide backgrounds for cartography modules, etc.
- To manage media, you must be logged into Centreon with an administrator or editor profile.
- In Centreon, a user can only view and use an image if an access rule explicitly allows it.
Image management
All the images are stored in the folder entitled: /usr/share/centreon/www/img/media of the Centreon server.
There are two methods for adding images to this folder:
- Do it manually,
- Use automatic synchronization. This method has the advantage of being able to import multiple images at the same time.
Manual addition
To add an image in Centreon, go to Administration > Parameters > Images and click Add.
The following window is displayed:
- The Existing or new directory field can be used to add a new folder in the image folder or to choose an existing folder into which the image can be copied
- The Image or archive field can be used to select the image or the set of images contained in an archive that will be imported
- The Comments field can be used to describe the image
Synchronizing the images
To synchronize one or more images in the Centreon media:
- Copy your images in the image folder (the images may be located in folders).
- Make sure the user who executes your web server has the read rights on these images.
- Go to Administration > Parameters > Images.
- Click Synchronize Media Directory.
The following window imports the new images:
