Adding new Tabs

Hello !

As a newbie to Zenoss I have a simple question:

Zenoss shows tabstrips on the screen as 'Software', 'Hardware' and so on.

Is it possible to add own tabstrips to the overview ? The sence is to

creat own regions for example referring to the state of databases and so on.

Thanks in advance for your help and many greetings,

Gerrit

    You can add tabs, but you'll have to do development work... code them

    in. This probably would be answered in the dev forum.

    It is possible to add new tabs to devices using a ZenPack. This means that your modifications won't be affected by upgrading Zenoss. I have an ZenPack that is checked into the community repository called ZenPacks.example.Techniques that illustrates how to achieve this.

     

    Browse source for ZenPacks.example.Techniques:

    http://zenpacks.zenoss.org/trac-zenpacks/log/zenpacks/ZenPacks.example.Techniques

     

    The specific changeset that adds a new "Custom" tab to all devices:
