Expanding or Collapsing the Discovery-Tree View
You can use the Expand/Collapse capability on the View menu to change the way
discovered elements are displayed. By selecting one of the four levels, the
discovery-tree is expanded or collapsed to that level. You can choose Hosts/Fabrics
(depending on the view), adapters, ports, PCI functions, and targets.
Property Tabs
The property tabs display configuration, statistical and status information for network
elements. The set of available tabs is context-sensitive, depending on the type of
network element or adapter port currently selected in the discovery-tree.
Status Bar
The status bar is located near the bottom of the OneCommand Manager application
window. The status bar displays messages about OneCommand Manager application
functions, such as “Discovery in progress” or the progress when performing an “Export
SAN Info” operation.
The status bar is visible by default. Use the Status Bar item in the View menu to hide the
status bar. When checked, the status bar is visible.
Using OneCommand Manager Secure Management
OneCommand Manager Secure Management gives system administrators the ability to
further enhance the active management security of their networks. Using Secure
Management, administrators can define each user's privileges for managing both local
and remote adapters. When running in Secure Management mode, users must log on
with their user name and password to run the OneCommand Manager application.
When users are authenticated, they can only perform the functions allowed by the
OneCommand Manager user group to which they belong. If the systems are running in
an LDAP or Active Directory domain, the OneCommand Manager application
authenticates users with those defined in that domain. For Linux and Solaris systems
this is done using PAM.
Note: OneCommand Manager Secure Management is not supported on VMware
hosts nor is it supported on OneCommand Manager application Web Launch
clients.
Administrators set up user accounts such that users belong to one of the OneCommand
Manager application user groups. The user groups define the management capabilities
