View the Device Profile Icons Available

NNMi enables you to customize the icons associated with a Device Profile or specific nodes. These icons appear in views, menu items, and as foreground images on an NNMi topology map.

To use the command line to load the icon images to the NNMi database so they are available for use, see nnmicons.ovpl. To use the NNMi console to load images, see Add Device Profile Icons.

Note NNMi provides a missing icon () to indicate a Device Profile icon is not available. The reasons that NNMi displays the missing icon include the following: 

  • The icon's graphic file has been deleted.
  • The icon's graphic file does not exist.

To view the device profile icons available for use:

For each icon, NNMi displays the image (in 16 pixels), the name of the image, and the author.

Images must be provided in 16 pixels. You can also specify the same image in 32 pixels. To determine whether a 32 pixel image has been added to the NNMi database, examine the Analysis Pane information for the selected icon.

To modify or delete an icon using the command line, see nnmicons.ovpl.

To modify or delete an icon using the NNMi console, see Customize Device Profile Icons.
