Using Shortcut Menus

The shortcut menu is available for all selectable system and cluster resources. These resources include
the overview pane, tree pane, and the Physical and Inventory views in the View pane, as well as dialog
boxes with selectable resources. To display a shortcut menu, right-click a resource.

The shortcut menu for all resources contains these choices:

Attributes brings up the

Attributes

dialog box for that resource.

Alarms

brings up the

Alarms

dialog box for that resource. The Alarm menu item is unavailable if

there are no alarms on the resource.

Actions

brings up the

Action

dialog box for that resource.

All system resources also contain this choice:

Rediscover

causes OSM to refresh and reanalyze the object and all subcomponents. Refresh refers to
OSM updating the attribute values displayed in the OSM Service Connection interface.
Reanalyze refers to the running of OSM incident analysis, which checks EMS event
messages and creates alarms in OSM if certain conditions exist.

The only cluster resources that have the Rediscover action are the ServerNet Cluster and External
ServerNet Fabric.

Interpreting Icons and Color

The OSM Service Connection uses different icons and colors to indicate a change from normal status
in a group or resource in the Management window.

The states are indicated as green (normal), yellow (warning), and red (critical). See
