Map Search

The search bar lets you do a simple text search, as well as searching particular fields associated with the node.

Search fields

You can search the following fields:

Field Description

nodeId

The ID of the node

nodeLabel

A text description

foreignSource

The provisioned foreign source, if any

foreignId

The provisioned foreign ID, if any

ipAddress

The primary IP address

severityLabel

The severity ("Normal", "Warning", etc.)

description

The description field from the node’s assets

maintContract

The maintenance contract from the node’s assets

category

Match a category, if any

Note that all searches are case-insensitive.

Substring matching example

To search for text in one of the fields, use the following syntax:

fieldname:searchtext

If the search is nodelabel:server it will match a node’s label like server1.opennms.com or server2.opennms.com.

Exact Matching Example

To search for an exact match of a field, use the following syntax:

fieldname=searchtext

If the search is nodelabel=server1.opennms.com it will only match a node’s label like server1.opennms.com.

It is possible to create a link to the node-maps URL that already has a pre-filled search defintion by adding a #search/searchtext into the URL.

For example, to link to the node label search from the substring match example above, write the URL as follows:

http://opennms-ip/opennms/node-maps#search/nodelabel:server

Or to search for the exact node label match:

http://opennms-ip/opennms/node-maps#search/nodelabel=server1.opennms.com
