Graphical User Interface Features

Banner with summary views. The banner provides a link to the Home page and a link to Logout. It also provides system status information and an alarm to notify you of certain events. The banner can be customized for your environment.

Search.  The search feature enables you to search for matches by system name and common system attributes. You can also perform an advanced search for matches based on selected criteria.

System and event lists.  System and event lists enable you to view all known systems and events of a specific subset. Lists can be private, visible only to its creator, or public, visible by all users. HP Systems Insight Manager ships with default public lists only. For information about customizing and creating new lists, refer to the HP Systems Insight Manager on-line help.

Menus.  The HP Systems Insight Manager menus provide access to tools, logs, software options, and online help. The Options menu is primarily targeted for users who administer the HP Systems Insight Manager software. If you lack authorization to use these tools, you might not be able to access this menu.

Workspace.  The workspace displays the results of your latest request. It can contain a list, tool, or report. Some tools launch a separate browser window or X Window terminal instead of displaying in the workspace. This area contains the Home page when you log into HP Systems Insight Manager. By default, the introductory page is displayed as the Home page.
