(Optional) If the introductory page is selected as your home page, customize the content on the page by selecting or clearing the following options:
Show "Do this now to finish the install" frame. If selected, this section appears on the Home page.
Show the "Did You Know?" image. If selected, the image in the bottom right corner of the Home page appears.
(Optional) If you selected This collection, select a collection from the dropdown list, and then select Automatically maximize workspace if you want to automatically maximize the workspace when this collection is displayed as the home page.
Customizing the System Status Panel | |
Customize the System Status panel to display the following status information: Uncleared Event Status. A count that indicates the number of uncleared event statuses that are Critical, Major, Minor, and Normal for any given system collection. Each number is a hyperlink to a detailed list of events with that particular status. By clicking the number, an event collection appears with those particular events and their corresponding systems.
Alarm. An alarm can be customized to appear for specific criteria for any given system collection. The alarm alerts you that a particular criterion has been met by one or more systems in that collection. For example, you might receive an alarm that a storage system has a critical uncleared event, or critical health status. Because the System Status panel is continually updated, the alarm appears until the event is cleared, the system is removed from the collection, or the alarm customization is changed so that it no longer applies. If the System Status panel is collapsed, and an alarm occurs, it opens automatically so that the alarm is visible. You can collapse the panel, but it continues to open as long as the alarm is relevant. To have the panel remain collapsed, you must clear the offending event or system status or reconfigure the status display to no longer display alarms.
Legend of status icons. To display a list of status icons, click Legend in the System Status panel. Legend information appears in a separate window and remains open until you close it.
To customize the System Status panel: Click Customize in the upper-right corner of the System Status panel. The Customize System Status page appears. Select the first Show summary of, and then select uncleared event status or health status.
Select the system collection All Systems, or select another system collection from the dropdown list. Edit the Label if desired.
Select the second Show summary of, and then select uncleared event status or health status.
Select the system collection All Systems, or select another system collection from the dropdown list. Edit the Label if desired.
Select to Show an alarm when any system meets the condition.
Select the Condition. Select the system collection
All Systems, or select another system collection from the dropdown list. Edit the Label if desired.
Click OK to save changes.
Note: Clicking
Restore Defaults returns the customization screen to its default condition: only the uncleared event status appears in the banner. Health status and the alarm are disabled. All personalized information is removed.
The System Status panel can be enlarged to enable you to monitor system and event statuses. Click the Open in New Window icon on the System Status panel title bar and the status panel pop-up window is displayed. The window can be resized by clicking and dragging the sides of the window. To close the window manually, click the Close Window icon. Otherwise, the window is closed if the HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM) window is closed or refreshed, or you sign out of HP SIM. The enlarged status panel window mimics the System Status panel. Whenever a status changes there, the pop-up window is updated. Clicking one of the status values brings up the main HP SIM window and the corresponding collection is displayed. For example, if you clicked the Major status value, the All Major Systems table view page is displayed. This window can be customized using the options for customizing the System Status panel. |
