UnDP Transform Results Display on a Map

cabotski

Hi Folks

Is it possible to display the result of a Transform on a map?

I have created a graphic which represents the layout of our DC and am trying to add the current power readings from APC rPDU's. I currently display this information in a table on a NOC screen but thought a graphic would look good and possibly easier to identify current status of a rack as the table displays a large list which is growing as we upgrade devices.

The table looks like this:

The transform is a basic % calculation which calculates kW from 10ths of Amps.

However when I place the transform onto a map I only get the status of the transform - i.e. Up / Down -

If I hover of the icon I get more details.... and it's the Current Value details that I'd like displayed on the map.

Any thoughts?

So following a trip to this years SWUG-UK I managed to have a conversation with some lovely people who helped me out with this one.

Firstly - the answer to my own question is to use the variable ${CurrentValue} ont he transform - I've used this as the label on the transform on the map and this works just fine for me.

Secondly - I was pointed to this little hard to find gem on Thwack: "HIDDEN GEMS IN ORION NETWORK ATLAS" it's from 2014 but still useful.
