Manage subscription Your subscription associates Minion Appliances with your organization.

Follow these steps to view your subscription and activate or remove appliances: Click Subscription in the left navigation menu. In the Available Appliances list, choose the appliance that you want to add and click Activate Appliance. Repeat for all appliances that you want to activate.

Unactivated appliances display a crossed-out red link symbol. To audit your subscription, click Audits in the left navigation menu. A history of changes to the subscription is displayed. Manage connectivity profiles A connectivity profile specifies how the Minion communicates with OpenNMS. It includes the URL of the message broker (Kafka or Active MQ) and the username and password with which to connect to the broker. You must create the Minion username and password in OpenNMS (see user creation and configuration in the main OpenNMS user docs for more information). To edit, manage, or delete a connectivity profile, click the Pencil symbol next to the instance that you want to update. Select the profile to be associated with the instance from the Profile list and save your changes. Making configuration changes to a connectivity profile respawns all Minions associated with that profile. This process triggers a brief service interruption. For information on managing feature profiles, see Feature profiles. Change UI menu style You can change the appearance of the left navigation menu. Light and dark modes are supported. Follow the steps below to update the appearance: Click the User Icon at the top-right of the screen, and click Profile. Click Toggle Menu Style to switch between menu styles.
