Introduction to SPMA for the TRMMIM

1-4

Conventions

Some windows within SPMA applications can be re-sized; those windows will
display the standard window resizing handles employed by your windowing
system. Re-sizing a window doesn’t re-size the information in the window; it just
changes the amount of information that can be displayed (see

Figure 1-1

). When

you shrink a window, scroll bars will appear as necessary so that you can scroll to
view all the information that is available.

Figure 1-1. Window Conventions

Some windows will also contain a

button; selecting this button

launches a History window (

Figure 1-2

) which lists all footer messages that have

been displayed since the window was first invoked. This window can help you
keep track of management actions you have taken since launching a management
application.

Use the scroll bars
provided to choose
what to display in a
window that’s been
resized
