<h1 class="topictitle1">Customizing the Operations Console window</h1>
|
||
|
|
<div><p>Use the flexibility features to customize the information displayed
|
||
|
|
by Operations Console</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><p>Operations Console has been enhanced in this release to allow
|
||
|
|
users more flexibility when interacting with Operations Console through its
|
||
|
|
GUI. With these new features you can customize the Operations Console window,
|
||
|
|
allowing you to view and interact with the information most important to you.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>On
|
||
|
|
the initial startup of Operations Console you may notice some small changes.
|
||
|
|
The first change is that there is a new drop-down menu item available, <span class="uicontrol">Options</span>.
|
||
|
|
The changes made in V5R3 also are listed here to assist the new user with
|
||
|
|
some of the capabilities of the Operations Console window. </p>
|
||
|
|
<ul><li><span class="uicontrol">Show Warnings</span> This option can be used to prevent
|
||
|
|
many of the common dialog windows from showing. For example, the confirming
|
||
|
|
a delete function dialog window will not be displayed if this is not selected.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><span class="uicontrol">Prerequisite Warning</span> The dialog presented during
|
||
|
|
the configuration wizard concerning the requirements can be turned off using
|
||
|
|
this option.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><span class="uicontrol">Use Single Sign-on</span> This option provides the ability
|
||
|
|
to share common signon data when connecting multiple configurations at the
|
||
|
|
same time. This allows the use of a single signon dialog window instead of
|
||
|
|
one for each connection.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><span class="uicontrol">Double-Click</span> This option has two items associated
|
||
|
|
with it. The first is for expanding or collapsing the tree structure, the
|
||
|
|
+ (plus sign) control. Instead of a single click to expand or collapse you
|
||
|
|
can change the function to use a double-click. The second item requires the
|
||
|
|
user to use another method for starting a connection instead of double-clicking
|
||
|
|
on the configuration name.</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><p>The second button on the toolbar has changed functionality. If
|
||
|
|
you are familiar with the older releases of Operations Console, you might
|
||
|
|
have used the second button to change a configuration. Now, the second button
|
||
|
|
takes you to the <span class="uicontrol">Properties</span> page of the selected configuration.
|
||
|
|
All changes to the configuration of Operations Console are now made through
|
||
|
|
the <span class="uicontrol">Properties</span> page.</p>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><p>You may notice that the icon for configured connections is different.
|
||
|
|
The use of a red or a green indicator makes it easier for you to see which
|
||
|
|
configurations are connected and which are not connected. Another visible
|
||
|
|
change made to Operations Console is that each configured connection has a
|
||
|
|
+ (plus sign) to the left of the icon. The + is a standard Windows expand
|
||
|
|
and collapse function. Each configured connection expands out into separate
|
||
|
|
functions associated with that connection. If, for example, the connections
|
||
|
|
to the first partition of an LPAR multi-partitioned system you might also
|
||
|
|
see separate entries for a remote control panel for each partition. This
|
||
|
|
should added functionality should make it easier to administer your connections.</p>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><p>When you expand the configured connection and right-click on a
|
||
|
|
remote control panel configuration, you will see that a new option has been
|
||
|
|
made available. The SRC history option allows you to retrieve all or part
|
||
|
|
of the recorded SRCs issued by the server. This information can be very useful
|
||
|
|
when debugging certain problems from IPLs to control panel activity.</p>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><p>Drag and Drop functions have been added to configured connections
|
||
|
|
to facilitate ease of management. You now have the ability to customize the
|
||
|
|
list to appear the way you want it to appear. This will allow you to group
|
||
|
|
configurations together so a common function can be performed on multiple
|
||
|
|
connections at the same time. In addition to drag and drop, the standard
|
||
|
|
Windows tagging methods for selecting more than one connection apply here.
|
||
|
|
Connections most likely to share functions can be grouped at the top of the
|
||
|
|
list, for example.</p>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><p>Additional functions now allow you to place selected
|
||
|
|
data columns in the order in which you want them to appear. Using the drag
|
||
|
|
and drop method, you can place any column in the position most useful to you.
|
||
|
|
You even have the ability to select which columns appear in the display.
|
||
|
|
The exception to this is the iSeries Connection column which maintains its
|
||
|
|
fixed position. From the <span class="uicontrol">View</span> menu, select the <span class="uicontrol">Choose
|
||
|
|
Columns</span> pull-down menu. Then, select the columns you would like
|
||
|
|
to appear and click on the column title to include it or not include it. A
|
||
|
|
check next to the column title includes it on the display. Only one column
|
||
|
|
can be selected or deselected each time. Repeat this procedure to add or delete
|
||
|
|
additional columns.</p>
