Adding a site
↩ Sites
Create a site for each physical location you manage. You'll assign devices, servers, and a collector to it.
Adding a site
- Select Sites in the top bar.
- Select Add site (top-right).
- Complete the form:
| Field | Required | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Name | Yes | Head Office |
| Address | No | 123 Main St, City |
| Timezone | No | Australia/Sydney (defaults to UTC) |
| Description | No | Primary data centre for the east region |
- Select Create site.
Editing or deleting a site
Open the site and use the Edit (pencil) button to change its details, or the Delete (trash) button to remove it. Deleting asks for confirmation.
The Edit form also lets you add richer information beyond the create fields:
| Field | Notes |
|---|---|
| Notes | Longer free-form text (separate from the short Description shown under the site name). |
| Location | Set GPS coordinates by clicking the map to drop a pin (or drag it), or type latitude/longitude directly. When set, the site page shows an interactive map. Use Clear location to remove it. |
Photos
On the site page, the Photos section lets you attach images (PNG/JPEG/WebP) — e.g. a building photo, rack layout, or signage. Use Add photo to upload, the star to mark one as the cover (shown next to the site name), and the trash icon to delete. The first photo you add becomes the cover automatically.
Notes & tips
- Set the timezone to the site's local zone so timestamps and schedules read correctly for that location.
- Create sites before running discovery — a discovery source targets a specific site.
- Make sure each monitored site has a Site Collector assigned, since the collector is what reaches the site's devices.
