How To: Adding Custom Icons for Managed Devices

To add custom icons for use with Managed Devices, download the .png icon that you want to use. For this example, I’m using Proxmox:

After downloading your custom icons, login to your Nodegrid console and drop into the shell:

1.      Navigate to “/usr/share/apache2/htdocs/icon/” directory

2.      Make the directory read-write by typing “mount -o remount,rw /”

3.      Now you can copy your custom icon(s) into it either via the File Manager to the “admin_home” folder. You can also use WinSCP to copy directly to “icon” folder but be sure to login as root instead of admin

4.      Then back in the shell move them to the icon directory above one at a time

5.      Once .png files are in the correct folder be sure to make the directory read-only again by typing “mount -o remount,ro /”

6.      Now your custom icons are available to use for your Managed Devices. They remain after upgrades but need to be re-installed after doing Factory Restores
