Hi Jcat, this seems like a good idea. I think using surveillance categories instead of provisioning related nodes gives more flexibility. You can basically tag nodes with surveillance categories with rules and they are easier to model a monitoring context for dashboards.
I would suggest adding an enhancement issue for this in our JIRA and if necessary using opennms-discuss to get an idea having something useful. my 0.02 cents -- Ronny Trommer, OGP Germany :: Fulda :: Stuttgart Web: http://www.opennms.org <http://www.opennms.org/> PGP Key Fingerprint: 4A1B 4D06 FEEC 244D 38EF 8074 9075 B2E5 08A2 451E PGP Key Server1: https://keyserver.pgp.com <https://keyserver.pgp.com/> PGP Key Server2: http://pgp.mit.edu/ <http://pgp.mit.edu/> > On 23.11.2015, at 11:07, jcat <j...@nysasounds.co.uk> wrote: > > Hi Jessie, > > > This is great.
